God damn it. Now it's me vs. mount olympus.

i think you've said what u had to say, and ur responses arnt going to get any more pleasent than they are now, id take absense of this thread if i was you.

lol... There are very few words in the swear filter here, and fuck me if I made fuck one of them.

By placing newbs in their own forum (with a 50 post minimum) all you're doing is promoting the posting of trash so that ppl can get to the sections that they really want to participate in.

Further, excessive rules will KILL any forum - mods and admins should be transparent until the line gets crossed - life is already so full of restrictions - ironic that everyone talks about 'freedom' - that is, until an opposing viewpoint comes up and then the mods should be censoring and editing posts. Bullshit.

I've been on online communities for close to 20 years (ya, that's a long time) ... and reading books like Rheingold's 'Virtual Community' opened my eyes to things long before this site existed. Is this place perfect? No - lots of things need improvement - but - heavy-handed modship is not the way to go about doing things.
