*UPDATED* New Forum Rules. Everyone Please Read. - Page 2

Gothic Girl · 04-01-2005, 10:18 PM

Wow, I must have missed a lot. I don't ever ever ever go into the political forum for the simple fact that everyone's views are different and everyone fights over who's right. But I will take these new rules to heart, and HOPEFULLY won't earn myself a timeout!

Hypnotist · 04-02-2005, 05:13 PM

Simple matter of self-awareness...

bendogg · 04-03-2005, 06:26 PM

Better watch out Merlin, GAM might just give you a time-out for your little prank! I also agree that these rules are justified. You won't see me in the political forums because arguing with people over things we can't really control seems like a waste of time to me.

You should be glad there are no pumpernickel or Kaiser rolls posting here or else you'd have to be concerned about ze Germans again and their superiority over the French complex.

Then why do some long standing members enjoy making this place unpleasant for certain other members? And then it's us n00b's that get blasted. Then we leave and I can see why. To make it clear it's not about me....you guys are shouting that soon it will be 800,000 posts. With the thousands of members Got Apex has you'd think there would be a lot more regular posters but sadly a majority of the posting even after 5 years is by the same people.

Judging by the way people behave in most other forums, everyone wants to be allowed to bait and flame and do whatever they want without retribution. We don't do that here at G|A. The simple fact is, and what makes G|A such a cool place, that most people don't fit in here. This is why the bulk of the soon to be 800,000 posts are "by the same people" and not spread out more.

What you've been experiencing lately is nothing more than teasing. With your rank of Lieutenant Commander you can't call yourself a n00b anymore, so stop playing that card. You really should have gotten the hang of G|A by now. If you don't like it, take a break like I did recently.

Just because you may not like what people are saying does not mean people are being out of line.

That's not even close to the point of that thread. Geez. Just be cool. No one is out n00b hunting. We all just like to have fun with each other around here. Nija likes to have weird fun, but that's just him. (Don't fall for the candy trick. TRUST ME. Or the "lost puppy" line.)

Then your rank needs to be "Totally Enjoying a Got|Apex? Pity Party"

Just go with the flow man. No one intentionally attacks n00bs, well except for DF. j/k

SolidSnake · 04-08-2005, 11:30 AM

I think you're right I mean I've been around and I think I know nija with the cool or sometimes nasty and bad jokes, airen is sorta lonely sometimes

jk man... and well sourdough cracks me up does he have a bread joke book or something but hey panache I know you, you are really sweet and I know what you say about being people and not just computers, but that gives you the ability to just ignore things you don't want to hear, If everyone that gets bothered left, poor sourdough he's been stabbed lots o' times and keeps coming back...

so don't worry bout the teasing, you know we all love you, so does nijA!!

gwilks98 · 03-31-2006, 07:10 AM

Just a question: Does the closing of the political forum have any changes to the existing rules? (NO political topics to be posted ever?)

Sirrich3 · 03-31-2006, 08:58 AM

understood....did I miss something?

cheapie · 03-31-2006, 09:04 AM

you mean something like the fact that this thread is a year old?
