No, he's right.
Ignoring it won't have an effect. People want their opinions to be heard. Letting someone know that you disagree is a good way to end it, or at least clean things up.

Now that that's out of the way, I think the mods are doing a perfectly good job of keeping spam under control.

I bet you were laughing your buttocks off in your comfy chair when you posted that.

For real dude, you need to grow up just a tad bit. It would be for the benefit of the entire forums.

I'm perfectly fine with that! Its when people do like Rusty, and just post something like he just posted. Back it up, why do you not agree? I get it that you don't, but why? It just makes you look like a prick in my opinion. Offensive, retarded, and just someone that doesn't really care about the topic at hand.

Ironically, I think this thread is heading for the vault.

...and it most definitely shouldn't make it appear as if the user is trying to pull a joke or be a jerk or something when they do it. Of course, it'd be nice if people did back up their opinions, but they may be leaving that for another time or something.

Comments like "kill yourself", "jump off a bridge", and "go to Disk's house to suffer, sweetie", should be used a little less frequently, which seems to be the case over the last few weeks. They are pretty rude, and they should only really be used sarcastically, but it's something that's bound to happen out of irritation sometimes.

Rusty, you're not the only one, it just seems you have been doing it a lot as of late.

I have never said "Kill yourself" or any of those other phrases.

Offensive, retarded,

Do you ever stop and think that some people take life, or at least the internet, a little too seriously? Is this a topic worthy of a public thread, or more of a PM situation? I mean, honestly...

Stop talking now.

Lahi, seriously, GTFO. Stop trying to start drama.

I got your back TFE. And your front, if that's necessary.

...here we go again...!

But seriously, Lahi, if that wasn't sarcasm, then it was pretty silly. Teefee was simply stating something that's brutally obvious with this place; that's why we had PWNDay years ago.

That's what I thought as well, but you never know. He has a colorful track record with several users.

Lahi, seriously, GTFO. Stop trying to start drama.

I got your back TFE. And your front, if that's necessary.

And my point has been made.

Chill, Ido.

I went over this with BTG, and he said I could have this thread. I haven't been trying to create drama, I have a valid question that has yet to be conclusively answered.

So you can stop with the threats.

Besides, JTHomeslice's reaction to my use of "stop talking now" proves that I'm not the only forumer who believes such posts are inappropriate and spammy.

3. Which you purposely baited. It doesn't mean he agrees with your stance.

JoeyDay disagrees. He did not write Rule 3 as "Spam serves at the Pleasure of the Mods."

Really? What does it mean?

Um, chill? Stop with the threats? Lahi, I hate to break it to you, but I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing here, moderating discussion.

I see you jump at the throats of people who initially meant you no harm, and now have to deal with pointless gripes on unfounded claims.

I do care about pointless posts and how little they contribute to this discussion, and I'm aware of your conversation with BTG, however since that talk, this thread has begun its flaming spiral typical of certain users interacting with each other. So now I'm turning this around to pretty much everyone, cut the crap, keep it civil. Final warning. I'm nipping this in the bud.

It means that you are a dishonest individual who will cross many lines in attempts to get what he wants. One of the many reasons why I don't like you.

What does it mean in regards to JT? You act like I killed a kitten or something. I merely showed that other forum members are equally offended by "gtfo" posts as I am.

And really, who's the drama queen, again?
