    Lol, good to know people like my ideas :p

    ~hehe~

    Not that the moderating isn't good enough in the consoles to keep it under wraps, it is just that the console idiots spawn faster than Mods do, (in true gamer talk - lol, spawn.)!

    All in favour of ban em all year say I :D

    just found this one, and i agree with most of it. i lurk on here alot, i dont usually post outside of the safety valve, i dont like dealing with all the crap that goes on in the other forums. ever once in a great while ill go out into the audio or cd-r forums and look around a bit, maybe post. honestly i dont much care about my post count. (it shows, i only have about 200 or so) its only a number anyway. no big deal.

    I couldn't disagree with that more, if it were so I'd be long gone, I messed up my sig once, I didn't even have a clue about it, it was a matter of pasting one URL as aposed to another, which led to the 2-day suspension...

    read more here:

    People make mistakes, no-ones perfect, aD aren't Nazi's..."Ban now ask questions later month, every month!" is wrong.

    Thats just me anyways, I love aD the way it is, dRD & the admins/staff do a great job =D

    Anyways, **back on topic**.

    Great idea LOCO, but it'll encourage post padders, I've seen it happen many a time, for example @ RN (if you don't know what that is, you don't need to).

    Rav how can you say you agree with that, yet disagree with what I said about ban em all month thing. That's contradiction my friend :p

    And anyway you got a temp ban for your sig, I allready knew why, but it's not as if a senior, like you, would be banned over something like that. It is all about setting an example to the new people that think they run the place.

    However, I didn't jump on this thread to get confrontational with people, especially you matey. :)

    So for now, Ripper's out.

    Yes I think we are actually. But the conversation that is going on is of a constructive level. Also serveral mods have been regularly posting in the thread.

    What are you trying to do? By saying that, you are only dragging the topic further adrift.

    @Ripper, I agree w/ there being idiots on this site, but banning em all no qeustions asked just aint right, not being confrontational or anything, just having a bit of civilised debate :)

    it all depends on the crime, if it's sufficient to ba canned, they're canned. my view is this - you just do not see same level of misbehaving on other sites, and i don't even see the amount of moderator comments re bannings/endless requests for posters to be civil/conform/mature/etc as we have to do here..

    ...so the only way is good old school punishment (from my school days, not modern day lack of discipline schools) - short/sharp discipline - no bickering, whinging bleating or crying. that's the only way to get this place clean

    So for now, creaky can do as he pleases :p

    Because your posts aren't on a topic at all. So therefore you are disrupting any conversation that happens to be taking place. It's not up to you to judge what is allowed and what isn't.

    post counts/statuses are an annoying and unnecessary topic; we're simply talking about a relevant subject here.
