GrandpaBW, good to see you stop by, old friend, and I hope you are keeping well. Aye, but there's nothing wrong with having a little ambition, now is there buddy ;-) It's good to see members with enthusiasm, rather than members continually asking [bold]"how many posts 'till I reach this status?"[/bold] (Hence the first line of my sig)
Grandpa, are you also from DA forums? i swear i saw your sig before somewhere. @Gerry....Thank you! @Everyone concerning Mod position.......Oh well then! Il just be myself lol. @ lethal_b Was that about me or....? lol. Is lethal b referring to lethal bizzle?
@ Lethal_B: I am doing okay. @BillyBob: I don't know what the DA forums are. @andmerr: I drop in here some, and the first place I stop is Friday Funnies.
@LethalB...nothing whatsoever wrong with ambition. Billy is a great kid (and a good sport; permiggs adopted him as his "pet noobie" LOL)...if he wants to be a mod, I'm sure that one day he will be.
Yes it was. Keep doing what you are doing And yeah.. I was listening to lethal bizzle at the time of signup, with regret. Please, just call me "lethal" [bold]he's got no chance under permiggs' guidance!![/bold] LoL ;-)
LOL! But permiggs is great! @lethal Ok, i have to say that they are terrible, but if it was only because their song was on at the time of signup...then i forgive you!lol! And thanks for your compliment out the ambition. billy
We need more good mods, however, there is a reason why this forum will never be the same as it used to, and it has nothing to do with forum policing.
@Lethal...Why do you think the site will never be the same; I certainly don't disagree with you, there has been a huge drop in the number of questions coming into the forums...at least the ones in which I lurk and I don't understand why. Oh, I know there are a lot of wise a$$ kids posting nonsense but that doesn't seem to apply to certain forums. I lurk about in the receivers/amplifiers section and that sort of nonsense doesn't go on there, well seldom anyway, so why do you think the people seeking assistance has come to a near stand still? It use to be that me, JVC, a certain addict who is no longer with the site and a couple of others could barely keep up...and not all that long ago.. while in a very short period of time things have come to a near stand still. Any ideas why this is occuring? Again, there isn't the same sort of nonsense that goes on elsewhere in the site. The same is true in the displays forum; there isn't much nonsense going on there but it too has really slowed down and with the likes of Ced answering questions in the displays forum, one certainly can't complain about inadequate responses; the man is a wealth of information and helps a great deal (I've learnt a lot from him). Why is this happening do you think?
this is the main reason,most went to other sites.. and from what i been told over and over,they are sick and tired of the children posting.it all started to go down hill because of the Consoles boards.. this main site should be for 18 and older and the Consoles should have there own site. New copyright law approaches -- content to be removed [26 December 2005 As some of you might remember, Finnish Parliament approved a new copyright legislation in October, 2005 and that new legislation will come into force on 1st of January, 2006. As AfterDawn Ltd is a company based in Finland, we have to play along with the new law, however.. [ more ] http://www.afterdawn.com/news/archive/7179.cfm
it's an ongoing task, for instance - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/21/303965 i've contained the kiddiewinks who are obsessed with the game Animal Crossing in one thread, but they keep escaping/flouting rules. they're not as bad as the xboxers et al but it just doesn't stop, i really wish the Admins would ringfence the console forums somewhere else away from the main forums, not cus we can't keep 'em in line, i just don't think it's good for the site, surely ppl from outside AD must see soooo many posts from us mods chasing the idiots round and it must look bad. Most forums i go into here seem to have mine or another mod's posts constantly sorting out some kid or other...if only they'd script us a machine that makes ppl grow up quicker
Thats a shame ireland, im only 16 but i have had no comments about being immature, and i dont think ive ever posted in the consoles forum. Go creaky though, that must be hard! I read that thread about animal crossing, why did you ban the bubbli person only temporarily? She so vividly put it that this "webby is rubbish" and she doesnt "want to be part of this club no more is boring!!" LOL!
