Ye Grande Guidelines

- If someone seems stupid, don't flame them, help them.

- If someone is a troll, don't flame them, ignore them.

- If someone forgets periods, spacing or spelling, don't correct them, just make sure it doesn't happen to your own posts.

- Lastly, don't ever flame.  EVER.  I don't care if someone is racist, homophobic and a SpyderMonkey-lover all at once.  Just ignore them, report the post to a moderator and let the moderators take care of the issue.

Keep your comments generally positive and supportive, or keep them to yourself.  We welcome everyone here. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

-Flayra

That is always gonna happen.  You should have expected this when you started.  It was better a few months ago, but then all these new people came...if you look at the reply's you are talking about, it 90% of the time the person has registered in the last few months, and its only gonna get worse with the release, so try as you will, you can't stop NS from turning into every other mod out there, its gonna attract some ########.

    Saying "No Bashing" at least gives us a link to spit at people like me when I'm in my bad mood, or some guy who wanders here and just wants to cause trouble.

    GAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! You DO realize that your are doing the exact same thing that FLayra told people NOT to do, right?

    Sure, the majority of the community can be bad, but all it takes is a few good moderators, and these forums CAN be civil....

    He isnt bashing anyone, hes just giving his opinion, and his opinion is true. Not everyone in the world is the same you know. I mean, look at CS and its n00 ... <!--emo&::onos::--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tiny.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='::onos::'><!--endemo--> /BANG!

    You make it sound as though every person registered recently brings nothing but problems and noobism. I don't know whether or not I would fall under your category of "recent registrations," but I have seen many people who registered in late September or even October who post useful, insiteful comments. Yes, I agree with you, it will be nearly impossible stopping these forums from degenerating to the quality of other successful mod forums out there, but I find just a little unfair to call every new poster annoying.

    About what Flayra said, well, if he wants less negative / inflamatory comments, I don't think I do much of that anyway, but I'll be extra careful. But while I'll turn another cheek at noobish, downright stupid remarks, and although I'll try to never "flame" persay, there are some things that I'll find difficult to let slide. Just hope the mods get there first  <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo--> .

    Hey guys -- don't go by reg dates only.  I followed this mod for over a year and lurked in the forums before finally registering to beat the newbie rush.

    yea i reged a while ago, but don't post full-time like some of the 2k+ posters... but if you care to look, pretty much anyone over 1k post is somehow involved officially with the mod. if you aren't flay must hate you, its simple as that lol.

    Scarface, I agree with the fact that there will always be flaming and bashing.  Flayra can't control that.  But does that mean he should just give up trying?  Do you know what the forum would be like if he did that?  What he CAN do, however, is limit the amount of flaming going on.  That's what he's doing.  I know that you're simply stating your opinion, but put some more thought into it next time. <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->

    Hey , tis' true , I got flamed my very first post(by one person) and the rest stuck up for me ........................sorta. But as far as cs bashing goes , I have yet to read a post where CS as a game has been bashed other than speaking about those in the cs community. I'm starting to see the same thing in the DoD forums also , I've played DoD since 1.0 but if I was to post on the forums now. Being post #1 , I'd be a noob and treated as such. It's not cs that's being bashed , it's those holier than thou 'I own this server , you dumb n00b' ppl that are a turn off to the game.

    Imho the only new person thats been flamed is myname123 for  posting .................things.

    csing since beta 4.0, doding since 1.0, soon to be nsing 1.0.

    I wonder if the forums were more n00b friendly year ago or so, because I remember my first post which was terrible spammish (etc. no dots, lots of misspelling and overall just a big n00b question) and no one, not a single person flamed back.
  • Da_SargeDa_Sarge Old School Suck Join Date: 2002-10-15 Member: 1502Members
    Well...there hasnt been much n00b bashing in these forums as far as people who actually stay on topic and give good topic discussions. If you keep it calm n cool n try not to get anyone ######, this forum will beat the rest.

    You start a new thread bashing Flayra because he asked you not to bash other people? <span style='color:red'>***Locked***</span>
