If you witness someone picking on another member, say something about it.

 

 

2. Stop Censoring

I am curious where the rude and disrespectful posts are that you speak of.

My advice: if people are being jerks, buy from them or sell to them. Some ice-holes are sweet as pie in PM's...

 

Also keep in mind that some of the comments in general discussions have roots from PM's.

I say embrace your noob-ness, you'll look back at these times one day in wistful remembrance. I remember hating my life when I pledged my fraternity, but looking back it was the most fun I ever had.

This might be the worst thread ever.

The fact that people disagree with the idea of being respectful to one another is demonstrative evidence of a clear problem.

Repeat after me:

I will post and say anything I want here and voice my opinion anytime I choose to. (Within forum guidelines). I will not feel bullied because someone with more posts than me doesn't agree with what I have to say. In fact I'll have a sense of humor about it because either a) I'm so entrenched in my beliefs that none may sway me or b) I sometimes might talk out my azz and not know what I'm talking about and can learn from it.

I will not confuse Internet bullying with forum bantering, though I'm not naive in understanding that some strange politics do go on here (not really in this goofy moderns section though) of which I have seen the repercussions of such things.

 

We can all get along, but that doesn't mean we'll always agree. It's just the way social interactions work. If things get out of hand, there is a mod button. Spend a few weeks in the Water Cooler. Moderns will seem like Vacation Bible School compared to those animals.

 

Most of all: Just have fun.

Like I've said countless times before, my request is not controversial. It is sad that it has become controversial.

Heck the boards are much nicer these last few months. Should have been here before all the weekly ejections were given a few months back

 

lol

More civility please does not seem like an unwarranted or an out-of-bounds request.

 

Part of the issue with frustration over the frequent rehashing of various topics is the search function has been neutered down to six month windows. Makes it more difficult for newbs to get at the old wisdom on the boards.

 

PUTZES!

Is this the thread where I can learn what formerly innocuous emoticons are now being used as passive-aggressive dickjabs?

 

[RockMyAmadeus]

Ah, I see it is.

 

Nico thread

 

Just like text messages always but a or a at the end and you can say what every you want

 

p.s. I hate all of you

 

 

You should be nice to Hurley. He is frickin' big. Like a hairless sasquatch.

 

Hey, dude, I am being nice. I just like to know when I'm being dickjabbed.
