And how do you judge what is useless, maybe they think they're helping.

There's no point in passing judgement on each other.

That's what mods are for.

[bigboab]

Should not the mods be passing judgement on the rest of us rather than between each other?

Arrgh, someone hit me with.......gasp.....SEMANTICS

IMO:

First of all, consistent offenders of stupid posts and/or posts in wrong sections should be PMed by a MOD and warned, then if they continue, futher action should be taken (e.g. temporary or permanent ban).

MODs should be notified of such users (where appropriate) with evidence (links etc) and then the MOD will make the decision as to whether or not its necessary to warn the offender.

Opinions of other forum users should be kept to yourself unless you think they are affecting the forum in a bad way. If this is the case, a PM to a MOD (as mentioned above) will help the situation, instead of causing more trouble than it's worth with a name-and-shame list .

You saying regulars don't notify the mods already?

Nah I&#39;m just saying that this is the best alternative rather than naming and shaming them in this (or other) threads

I&#39;m all in favour of awarding something( ) to those who insist on posting in the wrong place. There are a few who could regularly appear in the board stats if we had this feature.
