No, not at all.
Surprisingly you're one of the few who agrees and you are probably one of the younger ones posting on here :p
Unfortunately this thread seemed to bait them out of the woodwork so ...

I rarely post in the music forums cause I don't know enough to not get flamed by all of the "this, that, and the other thing" Nazis that spend all their time there.
But I will agree there needs to be a little bit of culling of the herd at times.

LOL @ culling . . .
so u tell me, where do we draw the line ?
if the mods close too many threads cos they are idiotic we are moaned at cos we're stopping the fun, when we don't close them we are not doing our job, that was what the feedback thread was all about and we did get some very good replies in that thread, thank you very much :)
some of those comments are being acted upon.
and sorry UWM, i am gonna reopen this thread for a while so ppl can have the chance to reply to my comment.

| Quite alright, as I suppose my putting in the last word and closing it without anyone having the chance to respond was a bit unfair in the first place. |

Well Neo,
For starters, I don't understand the point of threads upon which the opening post is a statement so absurd that no one can really comment on it, or commenting on it would just seem a waste of time.
The "Look at my avatar or my new sig" threads, irritate the hell out of me. If you made a new one, and I actually bother to read any of your posts, I will notice it. No need to start a pointless thread on it.
Draw the line upon pathetic and useless reply's such as MERTON's. (Not necessarily trying to bash here, but he is a perfect example). I honestly cannot think of one time any of his reply's were useful, or made any coherrent sense!
I'm not saying take the fun out of COR, because we all like to have ridiculous fun at times, but this is just becoming unbearable.
Rude, or offending comments need to stop. Not saying flame wars necessarily need to stop (unless they are getting uncontrollable, because we all like to watch... and I like to participate ;)) But the ones that are deliberatly trying to offend people, that's being taken too far.
I can think of quite a number of people that we all would like to get rid of.
Maybe we should have a vote :haha: |

If we find a thread idiotic, we could be mature I suppose and choose not to read it. We don't have to "flame" those who have already posted. We don't have to bother or insult others. If we get too frustrated, we could switch forums or even turn off the computer and read a book.
*chuckle
Sometimes, its fun to flame or criticize or rag on others. Especially if we're feeling sexually frustrated, its a wonderful way to reduce that frustration ;)
Sometimes I think the mods close silly threads way too quickly and let other equally silly threads stay open way too long.
Seriously, it probably shouldn't matter one way or another. |

too many people have sand in their giners
i agree with what vivid boy said
i don't see how the people who flame the people who post immature stuff are actualy mature. name calling or bashing seems pretty immature to me. not that it bothers me. i find it humerous.
its just pretty hypocritical on their part.
this is the chillout room so chill out.
if you don't like it don't read it, if you did waste your time reading it why waste more of your time responding too it.

Come to think of it, I probably am one of the younger posters.
As for the re-opening, I basically agree with anuneventrade, posts like the ones METRON makes are stupid, pointless, and really do ruin some of the decent threads around. Not to single anyone out, but I can't recall one occasion when i've seen him post anything but spam/pointless rubbish.
/me wonders how UWM closed the thread when he doesn't sppear to be a mod :p |

Merton actually made some thoughtful posts recently, Sara. I think he was trying to help wienerschnitzel with the 1st anniversary gift. |
