yeah i dont really understand what is happening but i was a part of this live discussion and it was started and added to by jade4jovi and she doesnt have one post in here AND HER QUESTION STARTED THE WHOLE THING...she didnt understand something that others may not have and that whole entire point has been lost...

how can that be the answer to a questionable problem at best....

lets just agree to try to stay on topic and not go all orwellian here folks, its a bon jovi board...

just breathe....

Lmao, that made me laugh for some reason.

WAIT A MINUTE!!!!! What the hell happend?!

There was no spam in this thread, the last time I looked. I was making a genuine thread, asking a genuine question. This has gone well too far. But I can't ever say anything about it, because it's just locked/deleted. Tell me seriously why this thread had to be deleted. It was the same as any other thread on here, without spam. WTF. The Mods are just completley picking on us now, lol...pathetic.

The idea of mass deletion is stupid in my opinion. Threads like this, with all of the important posts removed, are a hundred times worse than threads that drift into some personal conversation

I believe the real solutions to this problem should be one of these:

a) Encourage users who are annoyed to put the users who annoy them on their ignore list
b) Create more moderators, enough so that the spam can be properly sifted through
c) Use the system of official warnings and infractions instead of mass deletion. And don't be so heavy handed as to abolish ALL personal conversation ... that would hinder the community spirit of this board, not help it

All of those are infinitely preferable to what's going on at the moment

Nobody's opinions even counted. It was just the Mods. Nobody said they wanted every post to be deleted. Every thread and post, that was on topic. This thread was on topic. Minus Oli saying he was Ill and me saying "o......k! Any suggestions, like yours - are also ignored.

Mods are doing a great job really.

I'm pissed. I make a genuine thread, wanting a genuine answer. I do not spam in it (minus like 1 off topic post) and this happens. It is NOT FAIR. And also out "talk shit" thread in the Games forum (which we keep being told to taker our "spam" in there) was edited and closed by some Mod. We're told to take it in there, but then it's still closed.

This mass deletion does not work. When is the message gonna get across?

No, you kept on talking about other people's post. You had your chance, Jade, and all you did was point your finger at other people.

Most users and the Mod team could ask you and your friends the exact same question.

WTF?! No, I didn't. Even a few people in this thread, has said there was nothing wrong with it. It was no different to any other thread, that goes a little off topic. IT HAD 2 OR 3 LITTLE OFF TOPIC POSTS. I can show you other threads/posts that should also be deleted, if this is what you're going by. It's unbelieveable. Plenty of threads go slightly off topic (and I'm talking about by other members, not us so-called spammers.) But you don't care about that.

You also ignored the suggestions AGAIN. Other members aren't happy with the mass deletion thing either. Stop deleting all my posts/threads that are on topic. Stop making me have to argue, and make these posts. Then see what happens. There are other people going off topic a lot too. But they don't get this treatment, lol. But you've made your point. So stop deleting everything, and then see how we behave. I can't speak for Oli, but I was already stopping anyway. Everyone said how less "MSNy" I had got.

I'd like to add, one more time - whicever Mod kept editing our posts in the "talk shit" thread, and closed it - was not meant to do that. If they were, why wasn't Kev's little gangbang thread edited and closed, hm?

So, for the sake of other members, even yourself, if not me - could you please stop this mass deletion?

I'm sorry, I misunderstood your first post. But anyway, those are the risks of mass-deletion. You can't spam away and hope for someone else to clean after you and sift through your constant chatter. Spamming away means not filtering through posts. This has been explained like a thousand times.

If you post ON TOPIC and rationally your genuine posts will stay in places. It's as EASY as that.

Many aren't happy either about the spamming, dear.

The mod editing your posts at least put some content in them, which you should be thankful for.

Mass-deletion will stop when you behave like the rest of the users. Or do you see anyone else's posts being mass-deleted?

Seriously, self-control is not that bad, you should try it.

Did anyone notice how I can put my sig and avatar back yet I haven't?

Don't cha think that's good I'm self punishing myself? I do, I do!

jade4jovi 07-14-2008 10:14 PM

Why has my siggy been removed again?!?!?!?! What's that gona do?!?!

OK, I'll start "acting like other posters" and then see what happens. I'd like to add though, other posters do go off topic at times. :)

Goldsausage 07-14-2008 10:16 PM

:o And I looked so damn beautiful in your sig!

DAMN YOU YOU MONSTERS!!!

jade4jovi 07-14-2008 10:18 PM

Really though, it's ridculous. Like not having a siggy is gonna stop me spamming. I want it back!

I already said I'd act like other members. So, could I have my siggy back please, Keeper!

EDIT: Well, I changed it back. Because, without a signature I don't feel like other members. I think this will help me to behave like them, Y'know? :)
