Unhappy

Ahem... I felt like I needed to state this since the quality of posts has dropped sharply lately;

THINK before you post!

Think what?

1. do perhaps even 1000+ people want to see some thread at top position just because you replied to it by saying "yeah, lol!" or something equally meaningful and informative. Nothing wrong with it really but when too many people start doing it, you end up reading 150 new replies/posts and they are all _total_ bs.

2. don't flame/insult people personally. It's ok to debate and have different opinions but stupid flaming in adolescent manner only makes you look like an ass.

3. this is NOT a contest regarding the number of posts you have. Please, for God's sake, don't post fucking crap just because you want to look cool with our #XYZ post count.

4. use a private message if the message doesn't really concern other people than the one you are addressing it to

just my 2 cents

peace

yeah, you're right mindbender. i agree with you. most of the time, posts on here kinda end up like a conversation amongst TAs, so you kinda get some 'bs' posts because people like to express themselves by laughing at someone's jokes or agreeing, because the thread becomes a conversation ya know? i'm not saying that all of them are like that or anything. i know i do it sometimes meself.

i agree with #2-4. but people arent going to follow any guidelines on what they can and can not post, when it becomes a matter of what some people just dont want to see. i read threads where the whole thing was one post with a bunch of lols and bullshit. but i personally have bigger things in life to get upset about so i just dont sweat shit like that. it takes a while to go through all the shit but i know i post stupid shit sometimes so im not going to hold it against all the other people who do it too. and anyways all work and no play.. well you know the saying. but hopefully this thread will help cut down on some of the bullshit for now. but as the amount of TAs keeps growing, threads like this may just become meaningles. peace!!

The metaphysical ramifications of this thread subconsciously tampers with the stability of time and space. Thus rupturing previous notions pertaining to the physiological homeostasis of the mind, body & soul.

yes i did just do that to piss u off thing is when we say all this about not posting bullshit... its a matter of where u draw the line of bullshitness. A thread can turn into a conversation quite easil, so long as that conversation is still to do with the original topic of the thread i dont see the harm in it. Because that way (as opposed to pm's) someone else can add to it..

I d get ur point though dood and i 100% agree this isnt a post race. the posts consisting of heheh... lol... are pretty pointless

peace

i dont know.. but this is the chill-out room
all these topics and replies dont really have to make real sense or try to better the world or something... they're mostly to chill-out
ok, funny-topic-threads dont really belong in de unknowntrackssection, or in the music discussion (if they're not about music) but other than that, it doesnt really matter, does it?

In some points you're right I think...For the personal things its not nescessary to post a reply and posts like "lol, funny" arent very informative...
But this is the Chill-Out Room...like ADK said...its just to chill-out, so I dont care or posts are informative in here...

lol jk.
well i guess so.. i do it sometimes.. but its not always deliberate.. and i guess that goes the same with other people too?
the quality of the posts i guess reflects the boredom of people perhaps?

Talking

I'm totaly cool with the no-flaming part and the fact that this is no contest in having most posts. Also the private message thing if it's something that absolutely noone have any interest of..

About posting bullshit i can't complain THAT much, because i do it myself sometimes, but to a certain point. It's not like i look in every thread to say lol or something as meaningful, but when i'm tired and have nothing to do i might post something that isn't that thoughful and intelligent

And sometimes a lol can be appropiate. A while a ago i read something really hilarious and i laughed my ass off, and my only reply to that was lol, cuz i was doing excactly that
