[stubbornforgey]

Going through the threads i have noticed a couple of annoying things from members whose posts have barely past 100..
If you don't like whats in the threads...DON'T READ AND REPLY.
If you think the thread sucks...MOVE TO ANOTHER.
If you think its perverted...again..MOVE TO ANOTHER THREAD
Leaving sarcastic comments like ..perverted for mongolians or other
stupid stupid comments doesn't win you any brownie points..we don't think your clever.
Agreed this is a horror forum..you will find everything directed about our fav topic in other parts of the forum..
this the general section and if we want to be pervy assholes in here
WE WILL BE..!! :rolleyes:

*Checks post count*
I'm good.
I think as long as you have something relevant to the thread topic, whether or not posetive or negative, as long as you present your p.o.v accurately and in a mature manner, it can (or at least should) result in a pretty decent discussion. Of course, there's a bit of idiocy here and there...but many times I've seen what I think you're referring to: Person enters thread, "fuck you and this topic", "you're wrong because I'm right"....that kinda deal? As though their personal tastes and/or ideas are the be all and end all, if you're not in line with them, you're not worth hearing from, hm? (eg - but WHY wouldn't you like that movie? - a soft example)
Of course, there's also trolling...where something of a minor (or what should've been) minor disagreement is taken too far by one party or another, be it started by a joke taken wrong, a snide remark, a misinterpretation, a conflicting opinion...to the extent of one following the other, spreading the problem into abundant threads...can't say I'm innocent on the argument factor, but behaviour like this is just stupid...of course, they all cry "innocent" soon enough when you resort to their own M.O.
As for trashing a thread on account of it's content...well, this is the general forum...I say provided it's appropriate and not endorsing or encouraging any kind of illegal or deviant behaviour, especially in our younger members or viewers, it's all good...I mean hey, MA15+ is pretty much what should be followed around the place in general, even if only to not provide the "horror = evil" crowd with any further ammo.

for the most part - the live and let live approach - especially in the general forum - is probably a good approach as long as the defined standards arent being abused ...

but i gotta tell you - there are some members as of late that dont seem to have a single thing to offer - anywhere - but making inane stupid comments on the end of every thread they find.

all last week during the day you'd see some pretty good thread content - then at a certain time all of a sudden each and every thread that previously had some good conversation happening - just dropped dead because of the 'thread killers'
I call it forum pollution.

there is never anything wrong with joking around .. but christ - cant it have a small degree of cleverness ?

I know this is MY problem .. i shouldnt give a shit really ... but other folks seem to share my feeling ... you'll have a smart or fun (or both) little exchange going with a few folks - then all of a sudden there's this wet fart of a comment - and people lose interest in the thread.

not everything everyone says will be gold .. but i've seen a visible increase in the number of members who's sole purpose seems to be leaving these little shit stains in every thread they can be arsed to click on.

and yes, i know there are people who probably think the exact same about my posts .. no doubt about that.

so .. i guess all i'm doing here is presenting my point of view... no solutions, no suggestions, no forseable resolutions.. .. its just whats been bugging me lately.

this thread sucks. . . you bunch of freaking perverts.

[slayer666]

Don't you have any interest in seeing this forum grow? If you'd prefer to keep it restricted to a small number of perverts, that's cool, but I think this is a major obstacle to more people joining.

In the attempt to have an open and honest discussion we can't judge everying by two or three people's standards. The definition of what sucks and what is clever is up to an individual. If you think something is stupid and unclever, however, I think it's utter bullshit, when you try to convince other people that you're opinion about this person or thread.

I mean, we're smart enough to figure out that Renob is who he is, and people like him are who they are. People know who we, the afore-posted, are in some ways, and they've formed an opinion, and it might not be all that stellar.

Besides, it is, afterall, the internet. If we just keep to substandard, at least, who gives a fuck?

I agree with urgeok 100%. It is bugging the shit out of me too!! I remember when we had a few assholes show up here and there,but c'mon, give me a freakin break. I miss being able to come here and joke around without some fool saying something completely off the subject just for attention. I just want to be able to come here and read what the valuable and interesting members have to say without having to decipher through the bullshit. =0)

I'm on the fence on this issue. I'm annoyed by what I perceive as stupid comments, and I also make stupid comments sometimes just to be silly. Actually, it's more accurate to say that the "issue" is very nebulous.
