A general "how-to" about posting here on AO.

[Lenny]

And now I know who you are. Banned.

Aww... That's sad...

Below are a couple of additions to the original post:



If you don't like AO... how it's changed over the years and what it is now, then the answer is simple - Go Somewhere Else.


Posting on this particular forum, or anywhere on the Internet for that matter, is an OPTIONAL thing. If all you're going to do while here, is bash the place, take your whining over to some other, lesser forum, and let off some steam.


While I agree to some extent, that AO is not entirely what it used to be, it IS still one of the better forums on the net.

Ok show me then. Or tell me how things have got worse. You know you can report a post, that helps us a lot.? We cant possibly read every post in every forum on this board.

You started this thread 1-17-07. I got Mod status 2-1-07, it is now 3-15-07 and since then I couldnt even tell you how many posts I have edited for one reason or another and or gave warnings. Not to mention some posts that just dissapeared, plus PMs and e-mails.

So should we just be more free with the bans or what.

Everytime I see these ********* it is cussing or activating the filter. Why would you type those? Right? Should the post be dumped a warning issued or a ban??????????? Rules are rules.

I for one can say that in all of my posts you wont see any of these *******.

What about name calling??? Same thing should we just dump it or?

The community is only as strong as the weakest link. How do you make the weak link and community stronger?

Heres one for ya. I dumped this post in a thread, "This thread is stupid." Thats what he thought but he gave no reason or explanation for said thought. It was in fact a useless and STUPID post. Guess what? That poster came back made another post. "My post got deleted, I dont believe it. I'll say it again this thread is stupid" I should go find it and ban him. Come to think of it that wont happen again.

If you see these *********** in your post fix it. you have cussed and or activated the filter.
If I see it, it will get dumped and or a ban. This IS AO. Have Fun Be Cool and post with some Class and Style.

End

Peace Out.

I love asterisks!

[on topic] Anyways, I find this thread thread helpful [/on topic]

Beemer: I certainly hope you didn't take my last post to be an attack or anything, as it was not it any way. All I meant is that more recent, general postings, seem to be that of incoherent babble, rather than your take on them being levels of crudeness. As you mentioned, there is no way to fully calculate a Forum's overall good-bad ratio... Nonetheless, some people should just stay off the internet altogether.


Personally, I would be a horrible Mod, as I would rule with an iron fist of logic, justice, and vengeance at times . There would probably be 3 members left after I was done banning das ignoramus's (ignorami*, ), or it would be me talking to myself , as usual.

No I did not.[take it as an attack] But when you are on the other side you cant have tunnel vision either. I can see my rep as a mod going south soon. Just dump the post or BAN Em.

Heres another one. "Doh do a search dude". I see that and its gone. If you cant or dont want to help so be it, then dont even post.

On the incoherent stuff I will say this. If the student fails to learn, who has failed? The teacher or the student?

Peace Out.

That's an awesome quote right there .


There are very few teachers left on AO these days..... (myself included... excluded... included... uh, something or other, just trying to stir up the AO embers a little, haha )

This one aint to bad either

I guess I've copy quoted and snitched before to make our forum cleaner and better
There are definitely kids that are looking to just screw around and make it hell for you guys.

By all means dont stop. We are a self policing community. As I asked before how do you make the weak link stronger. I never hesitated to report a post, then let the Mods make the call.

Peace Out
