View Full Version : Missing The Point

I hate myself for doing this and joining in, but please read this and have a think about it.

Every time I log in there is a whole load of threads either started by IN or about IN. It is driving people bonkers and they are getting fed up with it. That is the point of what is happening. Rather than either being a total troll or flamer, the person is mucking about with everyone. It is causing a lot of people to get really fed up with coming here and seeing the same thing all the time.

That is the point of doing it. It makes the forum less attractive and drives people away. Not the hard core members (though they will go eventually) but new or newish members will just think, nah this is just boring.

The only way to deal with this (if you really want to) is to ignore it. If there is shit going on you don't have to take part in it, even if other people do. Just decide that you will ignore it. If you have to do something, then report crap and let the mods deal with it. Joining in just keeps the whole thing going on and on and on and on etc.

I&#39;m with you on this one Clocko.net.interweb.weather.

I snuck this onto an earlier thread.


Hobbes wonders why people respond to members crying for attention.

Hobbes is a nice guy, but ignores people who have nothing to say.

Get a clue forum, get a clue.

Hypoluxa did it his way another under his angry and confrontational modus operandi, another has his own M.O.

Both want the same thing, attention without contribution, the only difference is their styles, got it


You people are a bit thick if you think this is an IN foil. Don&#39;t you know Clocker when you see him. His friggin picture is in his signature and his style is radically different than IN.

If you have a point to make would it not be easier to make it, rather than allude to it. I for one prefer that the mods on a board make their opinions clear, rather than some sort of hinted, hidden agenda.

I say again, if you have a point, why not post it. I am sure the normal members would be interested to hear it. Or will you just close or edit something you don&#39;t agree with.

I don&#39;t think anyone thinks it&#39;s IN, more that it is rather strange to make a thread about this subject with an obvious IN piss-take name...

edit: This thread is staying on-topic though, we are all missing the point... :lol:

Maybe if you looked deeper rather than internalising the point on a superficial level you would have alluded to mine differently...........you can accept input if you wish rather than just proof testing
