We are trying to keep the forums as civil as possible, and the constant quoting of people out of context has created a lot of issues. Bush doesn't sue someone everytime you quote him, but the users on this site will argue and get into fights over quotes of each other. We want this to be a pleasant community for gamers. |
Exactly. I complained a lot about sig lengths. I complained about the Off Topic appearing in the Hot Topic. I complained several times about the Forum Rules. I'm three for three. The toggle tab is awesome.
Probably the next thing I'll complain about is moderators and writers, and maybe even a little about some moderators who are writers. Of course not RocketPig. He sometimes tries a little too hard to inject the "Benny Hill" type humour into the articles but the subject and content are consistently up to snuff. But the site moderation could be improved almost instantly by removing moderator status from some of the moderators and some of the people who write (who might or might not be moderators) who aren't very good writers and pick terrible topics to write about.
They'll eventually give themselves enough rope to hang themselves and believe you me, that's when I'll start complaining about them. Then again I've seen one moderator go from complete shite up to pretty good. It was an amazing transformation to watch. Like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon.
