bookmaster8 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 If we all just ignore the trolls, recists and general trouble makers, then I am sure they will eventually dissapear or at least change. If you dont fuel the fire it will go out. In theory, that is true. The problem that I've seen with this forum is that there are enough of them that they can keep the fire burning hot enough by fighting with each other that they draw other posters in who just can't take it anymore without responding. In all honesty, I have never seen a forum where posters are allowed to get away with the what they are here. The level of disrespect and false accusations spewed here is really beyond belief at times. I think the mods are being way too kind. Just my opinion.

The Mods and Admin are busy people in their own personal lives and they don't got time to constantly babysit a bunch of bad ass kids,who just won't learn to behave,everyone of you have been notified of the rules that we should all abide by,and starting tomorrow don't act surprised if shit happens to you after breaking these rules,we need a little order and civilized conversation on here,I must admit that I myself have gotten caught up in the silliness,and I'm trying my best to keep on the straight up and up. Anyway since not everyone here can read or write English let me use some visual references to what I just said. THIS IS WHAT THE BAN HAMMER IS USED FOR!!! I LOVE HOW SOME PEOPLE THINK THEY ARE LARGE AND IN CHARGE JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE THE 'TEACHERS' PET,,, I GUESS THIN SKINNED PEOPLE CAN GIVE IT BUT WHEN IT IS GIVEN BACK THEY RUN TO THE MODS CRYING.THOSE KIND OF PEOPLE ARE WORTHLESS.THAT SEEMS TO BE THE PROBLEM HERE.

Foamy T. Squirrel Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 pourriez-vous expliquer, je n'arrive pas à comprendre "flame wars".... ??? ??? could you explain, I do not understand "flame wars" .... ??? ??? A "flame war" is an English Internet term for what happens on message boards when two or more school age punks in the school yard get into a fight. The teacher then in forced to "break it up." If they are both lousy students with a history of violence, then they both get sent to the "Principle's Office," where judgement is rendered. If they have been good students, or calm down and cooperate, they might be treated with mercy by the teacher. However, if one of them treats the teacher with disrespect or threatens the teacher, he will be suspended from school. And this teacher, this otherwise warm, furry-tailed, tolerant teacher speaking here, has had a miserable week modding this fucking asshole forum of useless /b/tards and is ready to kick some serious ass. Personally, I'm sick of deliberate rule-breaking, general trollish behavior, posting crap without proper discretion, posting spam, posting virus links, etc., etc., etc. From http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=flame+war: "Flame War A flame war is a heated argument between two individuals, that results in those involved posting personal attacks on each other during or instead of debating the topic at hand. Most forums have rules that forbid flaming. This is because the quality of conversation on a forum can be seriously degraded by a flame war. Topics can be "hijacked" by two people who would rather flame each other than discuss the subject of the thread. Some websites encourage flaming for the purpose of entertainment. One such website is www.flamewarforum.com." Hey, this gives me another Rule we can add to the list at http://camcaps.net/read-me/rules!/msg112284/#msg112284 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baker48 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I am rather in favor of the "Ban Hammer". Just don't be afraid of using it on those deserving individuals.. Having watched our mods for several years they have good sense and will bring order back to this discussion like we used to have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loner-69 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Do the same rules apply to the Mods and Admin or do they have special status,so they're allowed to say whatever they want?Like calling someone's girlfriend an escort or prostitute?Or saying that someone's service in Vietnam was a lie? Now,am I going to be banned for just asking the question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
