nice cartoon. :D
Thats about the size of it on occasion I guess...I remember my first posts on this forum. I didn't want to appear a twat in front of all those people who knew each other and were so knowledgeable about filesharing and stuff. It made me pretty cautious about posting anything at all, particularly in the more social areas.
Still, I think it is often perceived that way a little when entering a new community, even if it turns out that they are actually a pretty friendly bunch on the whole.... with the occasional 'human' touch of out of order dickheadedness of course :)

Probably a cultural thing.
I did also find it also amusing that for someone who might pass insults on the daily that they would get "outraged" all of a sudden.
Nothing new though.

Some are all assholes and elbows (a certain fellow comes to mind), and become entrenched before we think to vet them retroactively.
I always thought I went out of my way, though, to recruit sArA for WN&E (now the Drawing Room), and make her feel welcome; we badly needed her strawberry-blonde influence.
That picture she volunteered didn't hinder things at all, either.
Apart from that, you're all just a bunch of whining, loathesome, pinko, microwave stealing bar-stewards, and what's a noob to expect from you lot? :)
I take no issue with this thread. I don't think it'll accomplish anything though.
It seems a person may hate this thread 'cause they might think they are insulting and feel the need to defend themselves.
Why defend what needs no defending?
Anyone can be a git at times and some are gits most of the time. That's internet life, I guess.
To pneubs and anyone else:
If you don't wanna conform to some bastard taking a piss (or you don't know if they are), tell the bastard to STFU. Who the fuck is he to insult you?
You don't have to take that shit. :snooty:
I lurk J2...just don't post often, I will endeavour to become a little more active there.....

I think everyone here, git or not, is good for this board. It is entertainment with a touch of enlightenment.

I was actually in total agreement with that piece I quoted,
I couldn't have said it nearly half that good, myself.
the fist shaking is in anger at how retardedly stupid the persons remark was.
but then you know that cos it was a rod wasnt it?

Is the Lounge Witty -it is <img>
or
Insulting? - depends on your attitude, not at all actually. but harrassing yogi seemed pointless to me, all characters make up a society. nuebs sometimes post things in here to make a start, either they are ignored or oftopicsizled - which is not insulting but merelly not inviting - such is any dinner conversation - reality.
I cant be bothered anymore answering some new members posts when it comes to basics - is that wrong?
YOU DECIDE! - me? i think you should ask this question to the people outside of the lounge, i wouldnt be here if it was insulting
Yes its awful, and puts me off this place - although it does lower my brain capacity at times the loss of k++ and move etc has cuased a refined group to stay, there is less lol convos due to the like of the elite grammar uk taskforce squad which regain some of my deadcells and question whether literature can be a one sentenced line.
Its not too bad, I can handle it - it could have more, much more, due to the few members here the language and topics do go in one direction, hence if it was like in the golden days there was more dynamic
I hadn’t noticed - indeed all the huff up in evb and down here and the moderation of members seem to me some kind of outlet of frustration and totally pointless. The argumentation which follows from such "panic" moments when in actual fact nothing has happened. This is a discussion forum - so discuss without getting "physical" ip wise.
I think its funny - yes indeed hyping things up is funny, makes this place
Geptards Rod! Yeah! -"incestious private humour" indeed
Feckin’ manker - spider dude, manker, jpol, cheese -seem to be the remaining foundation, cut off their heads if you wish - then you cut off your
... and youll be redesigning this site
anyway
make a ew section for medium level conversations.
thats a bit racist i dont see why the welsh should get their own forum, the ewe forum would surely be a disgusting place to discuss positions?
^^ WHo are you trying to fool into thinking your manker.
that rn doesnt look like an m even when i try to look like it does. :no: aids has gotten to you.
goodpoint - the welsh get moderated to bookworld
and all ukaian's get their own world called "Synicism with spellcheck"
Americans stay in their predistened habitat of the drawing room
the rest of us just gleefully prance in and out

Thread was posted here as seemed logical though we forgot to consult you on this. Dont see why you see that so poorly as the Poll is anonymous and we wanted to see what everyone thought while keeping it light. Was about the Lounge so posted here. Confused as to how and whos wrists have been slapped.Quote:
So why wasn't this thread posted in the about the board section, or drawing room even?
We even have a Poll world now, btw, which surely would give you a better idea of how others view the lounge.
It can't be a fair debate if the noobs in question refuse to come in here to pass comment. All it has done is publicly slapped wrists, without giving any particular reasons for doing so.
I havent any issue with the regulars nor the pish and find it entertaining at times. Just getting a guage for how everyone feels and if theres any negative effect on the board from the harshness that occurs at times.Quote:
While you're at it, bear in mind all the regs you're complaining about keep this place from gathering dust.
Are you saying we shouldnt try to attract new members now. How so is it that we cant control the members and should we even be or have to. This sounds a catch as if we were rounding up members for shock therapy Im sure your tone would be worse. Whats happened here other than a debate. Maybe it’s the fact theres a Poll attached thats sent you into road rage. Maybe you could get something positive out of this other a home for a rant that seems misguided. Im not the only one thats seen an upside to this. This thread to me feels like someone just opened the windows and theres some fresh air about.Quote:
Why does everything have to be about luring in new posters, when you guys can't control the ones you already have here without asking for help?
Now its all clear... :happy:Quote:
yeah, we loves a good handbag fight really. :whistling
I do believe there is a public option warning members when making a thread in the poll section. Of course, you'd know more about that, being a forum mod. Perhaps you could correct me if I'm wrong on that one.Quote:

Eff, Zed, JP or Guill for mod, all the way. Power to the people. :01:
Hmmm....then again maybe you could treat us like individual members and not slate the forum as whole. Perhaps you could bring it to yourself to reveal where the halt line is, rather than informing us it's been over stepped. This whole thread was discussed before posting, so dont give us the home for a rant shite. It was instigated from the start to provoke a divide between members, pity it backfired. :ha ha:Quote:

At least a few of us want to be here and happen to contribute, which you should probably quote in your diary for when you're left with no one left to moderate. :shrugs:
