u know what's funny? i've been in and outof this forum for about 3 years..hell i was still in my 20's when i registered....and this same thing goes on about every 6 months or so...
steve, remember when there wasn't a single mod? admin said this was a self-moderated forum...said it was working out just fine....now we have moderators and guess what? things haven't really changed, toned down some yeah...changed? no.
and it isn't going to. why? most have already answered that question, keyboard commando's. it's just too easy to type in words and not be responsible for them. hey steve, remember when we (maybe not you, i can't remember) all went over and shut efi.com down? even some extremely respected members here were involved. it was fun and yep it was childish. but it was done with little fear of being "caught". yeah, they came over here and ssa, flamed a few of us and then it was over...the loser? the ppl paying for the bandwidth. no one else...
which leads me to the noobs....
u know what really bugs me? "use the search feature and quit asking hte same question!!!!"' guess what genius's? ever question asked is just about the exact same question asked before it.
which sub is better? how will this sub sound in this box? what would u do for componets? have u listened to this sub yet? my **** sub just blew, will this sub last longer? ported or sealed? silk or metallic?...
i just asked the exact same questions..only worded it differently. which are the noob questions? which are avid questions? WHO CARES??? either answer the question or don't....someone put it alot better then i just did a little earlier in this thread. but u don't have to be an *** and say "use the search button!"
without those questions what would we talk about? what would be the point of this forum? or the hundreds others just like it?
as to post whoring...so what? if it's not messing up a thread...go ahead. only idiots care about post count anyway..what, first one to 15,000 posts gets what? nada, zip, zilch and zero!! (watch that change now..lol) i have been here three years and barely have 1200 posts....and? so i'm an idiot? i don't know anything? nah, it's becuz i left for awhile when everyone got on their high horses and starting spouting off at the mouth...i mean both goody-to -shoes and keyboard commando's....
u know the best cliche in the world? live and let live. i post *****, but i don't degrade ppl who do. i flame and don't put down those who do, or at least i try my best not too. i'm not perfect , in fact far from it. matter of fact, i was demoted from being a moderator at another forum for having these exact same views..and they had a forum just for flaming!! but other mods felt they should be above flaming, while i said to hell with it, i can defend myself if i have too. i am nor ever was above anyone.
in short (yeah right), the forum rules should be this...
1) this forum is free, hence noone can or will tell you what you can ask. ask away!
2) post whoring is welcome, the advertisers love the traffic
3) flame at your own risk, as fire as a way of finding it's way back home
4) if a topic gets too outa hand, moderators will delete posts. and when questioned, those posts will be deleted..PERIOD. the persons involved will then get PM'd with instructions on how to carry on with discussion/ arguement.
5) come in, sit down, fire away and have fun!
6) most importantly, jmac will keep pictures of his *** to himself!!(mattj's ain't any better!)
7) last but not least,,it's all about having fun WHILE learning, so remember this..
