In Reply to: Another uselles post, but what is this forum turning to anyways.. (text) posted by a quiet one on July 15, 2000 at 11:45:22:
Some people get really upset when they read flames on here.. You can see it in the way they reply. I personally don't get too effected by it, but I admit it does annoy me at times. A flames forum would be for anyone that wants to bitch and moan about something.. some part of the game balance, or whatever. That way, if you go to the Flames forum you do so under your own will. Since it is in the CForum, people are way too tempted to click it, although it IS their decision. Unfortunately, just the subjects alone are upsetting at times. What do you think?
> Now.. this might not matter much, but I just feel like typing.. you see.. a few years back.. (when the net was young) BBSs were the fun in those days. Or in long.. Bulet-In Board Systems. Now.. I remember all those people out there.. at first things were going nice, people were there to change messages, talk about things of interest. But then.. on the end as obviously it ends with every kind of forum people being people just cannot stand others to be more dominant than them in some way. And usually take some ground and defend it, till last drop of blood. Now I don't deem myself as a particulary intelligent man, nor my english is that good so I can formulate all of this on a way I would like to.. but take this as an cryout to the VIPs or whoever else has the power of removing posts. Remove everything that doens't have anything CONSTRUCTIVE to do with the game. For flames.. that can be done on a different place, via email, and IRC is a pathetic place enough. Now, I am ready to read posts a mile long full of eaven stupid ideas.. but I am full of posts like "The Imms are so stupid!" and then an imm just marches in and starts elaborating how with that very statement the person has proven that his IQ is -85. You are all smart people, and can come to the right conclusion.. don't make this place a pittiful five dolar comedy?
