Public Reminder

[Nyroeon]

I just want to draw attention to the very first two rules of our forum, 1 and 2a:

1) Please respect fellow board members and their opinion. Generally, we will not tolerate any sort of trolling or bashing.

2a) Avoid at all costs anything that could be described as SPAM (Stupid, Pointless, Annoying messages). These are messages that provide no useful information or that we would be be better off without.

Rule-breaking lately has been so rampant and consistent, if I see anyone breaking these rules, I will (within reason) delete or modify the post without warning. If the user has made a significant infraction, I will send a warning via private message, and if the behavior doesn't stop, I will issue temp bans.

I am a very lenient person, and if you or anyone else believes I have wrongly banned a user or edited a post, feel free to message/contact me and we'll talk.

For now, though, things have been so ridiculous on the forums that I'm going to step up and begin enforcing our rules, and hopefully as the other moderators visit, they'll begin to be a bit more active in their duties.

Well said! It's about time someone came in and actually, I dunno, modded.

[ZFallen]

Yes, I agree. Well done Nyro, it's about time we stopped this crap.

[[Chrf]]

It's about time somebody laid down the law. Well said, Nyro.

Wifey goes RAWR!

Slash politely esses the eff you.

[Hi I'm Marth and I hate Ike]

Wait... there's been a time we've been modded?

I take it not much has changed then, until this. Good going, mods (namely Nyro)!

[Willie Nelson]

I'm sorry but there's nothing that's needed to be modded till recently, so where all the 'about time' comments have come from I don't know. Though kudos to Nyro for being the one to lay down the law to everyone.

Really? Even before Uni started, I noticed more and more instances of off topic, unnecessary insulting posts. It seems to have only increased since then.

[Willie Nelson]

To be honest, I wouldn't say I noticed it on epica scale till now. I take my blame for my share, but some of the people with the 'about time' posts won't admit it, but they've taken a few topics off the tracks.

I admit it, that is probably me. I've got nothing to hide.

[Netto Azure]

Well, I have to apologize here too. It just seemed that people went off topic so off-handedly that I got used to it. But I guess now that GSDS is coming up, and with people returning I guess things need to tighten up.

[Nyroeon]

Honestly, at another forum I frequent, spam and off-topicness just seem a natural part of everything. I really had to stop and think about the GSR rules to realize that hey, we're kind of being out of control about this.

It was mostly the attacking and flaming posts I was worried about; I'm sure the rest of the mod team can help pick up the slack since I have a horrible eye for detecting spam.

[Wishless]

Pfyeah those no good flamers

[Willie Nelson]

I can't tell if it's the right reaction I got from Z and Netto, but I meant Cena acting like he's never spammed on the boards.

[ZFallen]

Well, I'm confused. What were you expecting from us Glenn?
