[Hirronimus]

I'd settle for him using correct pronunciation once in his life. And no, I don't care if English is your 47th language, plenty of people do it right.

i call bulshit on that no one is ever perfect in anything... and ya i would find it funny if i got shot in a war lol.

That's not an excuse. My primary language is Russian. NOW WHAT?!

[Darkvalentine]

If only these weren't Sendoh's message boards then we wouldn't have to abide by his faggot rules...OH WAIT LOL FUCK YOU SENDOH

if you or anyone else have the urge, they are free to do so on the WoW Forums, this rule doesn't apply there.

Bravo!

Hopefully this cuts down on those Big Box o' Quotes occurances, where 15 people in a row just quote something like "lol" or "gtfo" for a couple pages. Because, um... ya... those are annoying and pointless!

I think the blame falls equally on the 'retarded poster' and the 'elitist drama lovers' who insist on going absolutely bonkers, bashing the OP for such a lame, unresearched, off-topic, etc post.

Imagine someone posts a 'dumb' topic and no one replied because they had nothing nice to say? It'd disappear.
I don't think that will ever happen here as regulars just LOVE their drama even if it's as simple as bashing a spelling error for lack of a better target. But that's what makes BG forums as humorous and worthwhile as they usually are.

Honestly, a good percentage of BG posters would just explode if they didn't have their lame topics to vent on. They live for the topics they ironically wish to exterminate.
Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.

Now come bash me for my low post count and different point of view. Vent that teenage angst! Woo!

I'll get right on that.

Yeah what I did was stupid, but at the same time you need to hold that standard to everyone. There have been plenty of other things that have been more degrading to the forums but no action is taken. I am not calling you a nazi or anything, but do not simple choose what you want to moderate. Moderate everyone if you are going to moderate at all. Thats all I am asking.

Interesting, you made a few valid points but I really disagree with the meat of your argument.

Forums suck right now becaue the game sucks, and people are tired of killing Fafnir everyday for 3 years. Maybe things will pick up when the expansion comes out, and it doesn't suck, and theres an immediate gratification instead of a 1.5year wait.

the list of people doesn't mean the rule applies just to them, it means the rule exists because of them. the rule does apply to everyone.

probably, but there's a time limiting factor. adding moderators is not an option on these forums.

but do not simple choose what you want to moderate.

why? this is a totally voluntary role. BG forums have had maybe 12 different admins and moderators, at least 6 of which have never used a moderator function the whole time they held that position.

Moderate everyone if you are going to moderate at all.

if i see it i do, if i don't see it, than i can't.

This is the most interesting thing I've read all day, and it very much applies to FFXI forums.
