I can't stand it any more!!

No, I am not talking about my absence from the 'Other' forum for the last few months. I have actually purposefully stayed away from here just because I don't have the time that is required if you venture into the 'other' forum.

What my post is really about is all the stupid people who are showing up in the community now. Flamers without a clue and people who make pointless posts just for the sake of being terds.

I think, as much as it could be bad, we need moderators in some of the forums. I don't want to limit anyone's ability to express their thoughts, but it is getting outright ridicolous. And if people want to have a good time without discussing computers that is what the 'other' forum is for.

Anyone else fed up with the new rash of incompetent flamers?

<b>Just because I like AMD or Intel more at a time because of one product compared to another, does not make me a fan boy, it makes me a person who is able to make a descision for myself.</b>

Everybody!!!
Esp the new one i.e. Randallflag and this abercrombie shite. I mean they are the worst excuse for a flamer!

It's the real trolls and jerks that ruin the forum. It's been a while since we've had one.

Oh my. Look up posts by Kennyshin. They're mostly in the CPU forum and many of the posts have probably been deleted, but if you sort the CPU section by post count you should find it.

Then there was amdmeltdown and fugger back in the day. Fugger stopped. Then there was the compaq guy who got mauled everytime he posted.

In the other section, look up "The List" and see all the people who got put in there. The list got so big that we split it in half.

Look up iceman10c's posts for a good laugh.

Damn man, my nerd alert device just exploded when I read that . Yeah, we need to bring those days back, they were fun. If nothing happens in the next 2 weeks I'll start a flame war about how a GF2MX can beat a r9800 pro.....I'll do it, u know it! And Puerto Rico seems to have done me well....I flirted more in 1 week than I do in 6 months there, and did a lot of fun stuff, stayed out till 3 every night . Pretty calm now oddly enuf.

Oh, and don't worry about abercrombie6. I contacted Fredi after seeing his spam and he deleted the posts and banned him.

I was on there once.

Je bend de mest onverschillige hasj dealende hoer die ik ooit heb ontmoet.

Don't think I've ever seen/talked to a person with "sk8" (xxsk8terxx) in their name that wasn't a total jackass

It's all good ^_^

I don't mind sk8er at all, seems like a nice guy when I talk with him.....

Hilbert space is a big place.

The first one is votes to put on the list, the second is votes to take off the list. I believe we had it setup so that 5 votes (on-off) put someone on The List.

I made The List back when things were really bad. Things are not even close to as bad as they used to be so I don't think The List is necessary anymore.

Funny since I was the one who maintained it for pretty much the whole life of the thing. Sort the Other section from last year by thread views and you'll see both Lists.

I've been on forums that have a little "Report this Post to Admin" button underneath every post. I wonder why this forum doesn't have something like that? It would make it easier to keep track of trolls, since more people would be inclined to report them immediately...

Actually, come to think of it, this forum seems kind of antiquated compared to most of them that I've seen. I mean, it's pretty much "Write-it; Post-it; Read it" format. I like the way private messaging works, but beyond that, there's not a lot to recommend it. For example, most forums mark threads on which you've posted, so its easy to keep track. This forum seems to mark threads you've read, but doesn't make a distinction. I dunno, it just seems like a lot of other forums are way more advanced, and I'm not just talking about avatars and images in the sig-lines.

Yeah...it sounds that way in theory, but like I've said--I've seen it on many other sites where it's worked, including Freeper, where there are some horrendous flamewars happening at all times. It's just up to admin to determine who abuses the privelege and who is realistic. People who don't deserve to be banned simply don't get reported often, whereas a troll would immediately flood the admin with complaints.

If it wasn't for the fact that so many other sites have implemented something similar successfully, I would probably agree with you.

Why should you be there?

This may seem sad but I sometimes miss some of them. Probably because beating on one of them when they made a stupid comment or statement was good outlet for frustration/stress.

I think it would have been funny if you posted that whole thing with no punctuation.

I was joking.

Trust me, we've all complained and been frustrated with the morons that come here, but they cycle through and all is well. Just help who you can. Ask questions when you have them. Stay out of the sections that are driving you nuts for a while.

Heck sure Flamethrower, if I had known back then that the list existed I would have nominated you

It got so bad that I stopped going into the CPU section for pretty well all of 01 and 02. I only just ventured back in about 2 months ago.

Fugger actually posts intelligently now. It suprised the heck outa me the first time I saw him post some usefull information. I nearly fell out of my chair. I haven't seen hide nor hair of AMD_Meltdown in over a year. Flamethrower always mixed good advice with flame wars.

For it being so big. I split it up at least so that it was in two parts.
