MalachiDelacot Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Well, people are so unpredictable sometimes. You may never know what attracts their attention - and what doesn't, except for nude anime girls, of course. Oh, kinda like getting excited about finding Monopoly money ?!

Tamujiin Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 I Also hate it when people post 10-15 pictures of crap. I wont name names but if you go to the image thing youll see em. ( AKA Spammers) I think ill try to post 50 GOOD pictures and see if i get banned. ( might take me a few weeks to make em ) And i Also hate that adoring fan that follows me around everywhere when i kill that orc in the arena. But i am no murderer...................yet.

Storm Raven Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 The forums at www.NAG.co.za have a nice system where you have to have 10 posts before you can start your own thread, wich works quite well and serves to get people to gain experience in what kind of topics people like and will reply to, maybe the mods should think about employing one here too. This is a very good idea so long as there is a newbie area for Help Me threads, then keep the rest of the board off limits till you meet the requirements. That way new people get a chance to look around the site for threads to post to. This in turn would slow down the revolving thread problem where people start the same topics over and over. Personal Opinion - Change the Necromancy rule to 60 or 120 days. People would tend to recycle topics. Topics would fill out and more throughly cover the subject. Which in turn (because people would be reading a little more than writing) would result in fewer but better topics. Storm Raven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doomjockey Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 You wanna know what's bad? If you post a topic that you think people will like and they don't. I was quite surprised when I got so many replies on my Poorly Defended topic, although most were negative. Wait, I paid attention to that topic for a while, I don't remember it turning particularly ugly, unless you counted ninjalord666's "spirited" method of debate. I was actually surprised the figurative defence of an imaginary empire went as far as it did. Honestly though, I really don't hate anything particular to this forum. There's a surprising amount of maturity here you don't see on other boards, esp. game related. Though I suppose if I could hate one thing it's when traffic slows and there seem to be no relevant posts for days at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which in turn (because people would be reading a little more than writing) would result in fewer but better topics.Read the rule on Thread Necromancy a little closer. If you have something substantiative to add, it can be a year old and not be considered thread necromancy. The purpose is to keep people from adding SPAM replies like "hey, good idea" to a topic that died and doesn't deserve to be "reviewed" again.

doomjockey Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Oh, I've got another one. I don't particularly like when someone composes an "informative" list out of acronyms. You've seen these lists: BGI, BGII, PT, HL2, GTA, FF, M&M, DoW, FO2, WoW, CoH, CoV, etc. It gets confusing when the poster assumes the games he plays are so popular he never need spell out the whole title.

Tamujiin Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 I concur, doomjockey. There was a song about something like that, all though it anoyyed the heck out of me, it has thankfully left my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually surprised the figurative defence of an imaginary empire went as far as it did. It sounds good to me that someone noticed it and wrote it down. If you look at the thread, it was then that I stopped posting, because I didn't wanted to flame. As for the OP, it is somewhat related to this: I do not like when someone attacks on these forums just because they can. Luckily, moderators do a wonderful job about it, and discussion is almost always mature and polite, as it should be. And when it is not, I just change thread.

Halororor Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 What irritates me further is if people post in dead topics and only post 1 sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
