Are we using these forums for what they were meant for?

Oct 29, 2003 05:52 Are we using these forums for what they were meant for?
I have sifted through an enormouse supply of wasteful postings in these forums, which I'm sure most have. Now I dont want to degrade ppls time and what they do with it, however if you dont mind me saying, alot of individuals spend more time quarreling and flapping there gums in these. I'm not trying to crack down on one soul in particuliar, but could we just keep bickering and complaints to pvt messaging, and save the space on .net. Certainly flooding the main channels with your bickering only does the same, take it from an ex-vet at it. I Currently struggle at it still, every now and then.

Posting complaints about game service, or bugs and other such annuisances are of cousrse always valid and good to post, but fightsing and quarreling over who is thin and not, and who wouldnt lock the game, these arent issues that will go away by posting them. they happened in past and will continue to happen unfortunately.

Sorry if this offends some, that undoubtly wasn't my goal with this, I just was hoiping to surf forums w/o having to sift thru so much garbage to see the good stuff!

I appreciate your time, :wink:

I have to agree that ther's way too much pointless shit on the forums. I broke my nail, winbolo sucks, so-and-so is a bitch... and so on and so on. Sorta like what I'm doing now, except this is somewhat relevant. *shrugs* Well, that ends my rant.

Yeah, get rid of 90% of MaddMaxx's, dZ's, and Q-man's posts and then remove the flame wars between LRL, SuicidJky, Min, and others and you have a pretty damn decent forum.
