I say we revolt. Treat people as equals, give them respect and they'll respect you. | |||

I agree completely. First of all I dont like these new FAQs, if Im expected to follow the rules Id at least like to be treated with some respect.
As for the favoitism its really gotten out of hand. I get warned for being stupid, and Im glad you guys do it because I stop. However others are left to do as they please, and that just isnt right. |

I was more pointing out the bottom part.
The board has the same level of stupidity it has always had. If I am remembering correctly, there was a dry spell that lasted for a while untill Xkeeper started messing around with things. If you want to go in a cycle, do it, but its pointless. |

Originally posted by Dracoon I don't think of it in terms of a "level of stupidity," but yeah I haven't really noticed a significant change that might bring this about. |

Legion: The people who say they hate dumb people usually have an inferiority complex where they feel, whether consciously or subconsciously, their personal intellect is lacking.
Nephthys: They send it to Industry Nephthys: then send it back to LA Nephthys: wtf Legion: It's the same people who brag about being so smart. Legion: It's just them trying to assure themselves that they are because they doubt it so much. _Shyguy_: That's sad. Legion: True intellects have no need to brag about it or point out the shortcomings of others in that department. Legion: hmmm Legion: I mean as a whole Legion: Not specifically QFT! (please don't ban me for too long..... not at all would be nice, though..... please?) (edited by Shyguy on 02-19-06 05:11 AM) (edited by Shyguy on 02-19-06 05:17 AM) |

Xkeeper Took the board down in a blaze of glory, only to reveal how truly moronical ||bass is. Since: 11-17-05 From: Henderson, Nevada Last post: 6431 days Last view: 6431 days |

(actually, so far most of the staff that's seen it agree 100% that there needs to be at least some sort of cracking down going on here
p.s. sion we're working on it, I think we have 2 people in the ban queue right now) (also: I'm mostly talking about people who are just complete morons who seem to be unbanned still, see also shyguy and insectduel) |

Originally posted by TI-92+ I take that as an insult. I don't really appreciate it. And I believe Insectduel has the same concern about you. You can get like this at times. You just change completely. I'm going to stand up for myself despite the circrumstances and say to you to stop it. I'm getting kinda stressed about this too but truth be told, ignorance is bliss. Now put the old FAQ back up. Your smothered crap can still be there but there are things the old FAQ had that the new doesn't. (I.E. Power colours, Syndromes, Distributables, etc.) Next time you'd like to publically insult someone, expect a response close to this. And gain some weght. You're a stick. |

Perhaps a compromise is in order, then. Put up the old FAQ, though of course it likely requires some updates at this point, as it's practically the same as it was when I left, and have the new one there as the 'quick & dirty' version for people who don't want to go through the longer one. The short one can be the Cliff's Notes for the longer one, essentially. But the longer, more detailed, and less aggressive one certainly has some value. | |||

I think the old FAQ will be back in a little while, as evidenced by this:

Originally posted by Detective Sion I´m on Sion with this one as I´d like some respect too. We all do and I do believe that it wouldn´t be too much to ask for. If people respect me, I respect them. Simple as that. I´d also appreciate if people don´t go around and call people stupid/morons just because they always doesn´t get everything that´s being talked about. I´m out. |

Originally posted by Ran-chan + But you have to earn respect. A lot of people want respect when they don't actually do nothing to merit such. Aside from posting what can be a majority of useless, and pointless crap. Seriously. Just because you post doesn't gain you '+1' respect points. If most of your posts involve some form of crap and stupidity, then be damn sure that I won't respect you. As for the whole moron/stupid argument. It is true that at times it can get a bit out of hand, but sometimes, people by all accounts act fucking stupid. Why? Because like I mentioned in a previous post. Some people are actually allergic to reading a thread. No matter how long it is, if the thread has more than 20 posts, they break out into hives and freak out, rush to the reply button and post drivel just because. There are other reasons to merit the label of 'stupid' but we see them everyday, no sense in pointhing those out. I like the new FAQ. Doesn't bother me one bit. It wouldn't even bother me if I am one of those factors of 'stupidity' mentioned in it. * The post above was not directed toward's no one in particular. I mentioned no names and simply responded to points Traps pointed out in his post (edited by Thoughtless on 02-19-06 11:04 AM) |

Originally posted by Thoughtless At least I´m trying to be nice to everyone. I know that´s not enough, though. Edit: Why is the board so fucked up with these upside down question marks and such things? (edited by Ran-chan + on 02-19-06 10:58 AM) (edited by Ran-chan + on 02-19-06 10:59 AM) |

I think there are a couple points to be made regarding respect. There is certainly some respect that must be earned, and there's some truth to your point. However, there is also the respect due a fellow human being commonly referred to as 'courtesy' which seems to be lacking at times. Even if not everyone is deserving of 'respect' because, well, they haven't done anything, I think a certain degree of courtesy is due everyone...at least to a point. That point, however, lies far out there, and the response when that is reached should not be looking down on the person in one's posts, but simply ignoring that person. There's no need to be denigrating. | |||

I find myself agreeing with Legion, which doesn't happen often.
And really, Skydude nailed it, sort of. People should be confronted when they don't make sense or are doing something wrong. They should be confronted civily though, explained exactly why they're being warned, and why it is wrong. Not told that they're a moron and shouldn't be posting in the first place, because then you're hitting that spot where people want to lash back at you for lashing out at them. And for some reason, people are forgetting that watching truely stupid people is fun. |

I'm just mad at when people get so up theirselves that they think the general population is stupid.
Sure some people just don't have a clue at times. That doesn't mean they're stupid. That just means they want to be pwned. Okay, bad example but still. calling everybody stupid is a sign of emo. If you were a regular right now, you'd be hacking the board again, Xk. You're mental. As for this whole fiasco, we could've had a better approach to this than having the leader of the board crying that people are making his brain hurt by not knowing better. Like maybe asking what people mean by their posts. That'll usually clear things up. It's not hard to do. Shouldn't be needed, but not hard to do. |

Is it bad that I find an insane amount of humor in this?
Chill pills everyone. Unless you're doing something stupid, then you have nothing to worry about. Now disperse, be merry.. and post. And remember, it's a message board. [edit] I just figured out why the FAQ link is flashing. (edited by Snow Tomato on 02-19-06 12:08 PM) (edited by Snow Tomato on 02-19-06 12:23 PM) |

Personally, I like the new FAQ a little. The old one had more information, but the new one blinks and definitely gets the point across. I hope the stupid people learn their lessons soon... also, don't mess with administrators or you're going to get zapped. It's like yelling at the police for enforcing the law, and it's probably going to end the same way, too.
I'm really really glad that all QFT posts and stuff are abolished. They were totally getting on several of my nerves, if not all of them. |

Originally posted by Radiation Something about me: I never really am afraid of Xk during any circumstances. Xk is like George Bush, Jack Thompson, and.... a whole bunch of people with big heads that no one likes... I never feared him even when he was an emo regular who constntly tried to hack the board to the point of near unpostability. He made quite a few people mad, then they banned him. He then complained about favoritism. |
