Wtf? Now even the mods are derailing threads and promoting spam
*hint*

Quote from farcar :

It's a forum like any other.
It has a large population, and overall a welcoming and intelligent one.
Yeah, the exchange of opinion gets heated sometimes but bloody hell, this would be a boring place otherwise.

I think the mods do a great job of standing in the background and only intervening when absolutely necessary.

Heavily modded forums sh1t me to tears. This isn't a classroom!

agreed

Its not just the arguments and insults like "NOOB" why is lfs so obsessed with that word

i made this thread to see how many people agree with my viewpoints, and maybe from here we can change things, especially how we treat newbies.

some might never have used a forum before so when they ask a quisetion how is "use the search button noob" or that flaming banana help anything.

i even got accused of being a hacker after 5 posts.

all in all i like to have a laugh but trying to find a thread to have a laugh about on here is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. frankly.

I doubted that the mods would close this thread not matter how much spam is in it as i have hilighted the points that they close everything so now they are trying to prove me wrong, im sure if this was a thread about anything esle it would of been well and truly closed by now.

PS: TO THIS DAY THIS DAY SHALL BE CALLED FRIDAY FUNNY WHERE PEOPLE POST JOKES IN THE OFF-TOPIC FORUM LABELED friday funny i shall start by posting a joke that i havent even read

And as proof of your point, you were flamed in both of the "friday funny" threads that you started. But I agreed with one of the flame points... You should have posted both jokes in the same thread.

If you call that flaming then no wonder he whines about it :dunce:

So now Friday is officially dress down day can I take my Kilt off and wash this blue paint from my face?

<Warning bad Joke>

There were 3 bees, a squirrel and a man in a car.They were driving along a country lane and the car broke down.

The first bee said , " dont worry ill give us a few extra miles by peeing in the tank",
it worked , for a couple of miles that is until they broke down again. And so the second bee decided to do the same as the first bee, but this lasted another couple of miles until they broke down again, so the third bee did exactly the same.Then finally the car broke down.

The squirrel said " I'll pee in the tank"

The man replied, sorry mate, this car only runs on BP

Quote from Jakg :

WTH? I didn't request the thread to be closed, and i certainly didn't "ruin the thread"

EDIT - Seriously, Nuse, your a mod now - you can't make assumptions like it being my second account, i posted something like "Damnit you found me out!" as a joke, but from every forum i've been on having a duplicated account = perma-ban for account #2, and a temporary ban for account #1 - what if you'd acted on it? you have the power to check and by the fact you think it was me you didn't.

Just for the record, i have this account and only this account, however if you go back far enough you'll find out that i've got the same IP as 2 other accounts, but they are not mine.

Oh, looked back at thread, OP requested close.

There is your answer, no one ruined the thread. Also, I never suspected it was you anyways, what makes you think that?

Good lord Jak you just went off like a madman too, sorry but I'm human, I make mistakes too. I have a duty to do, and when almost 50 threads are brought up every hour it kind of takes away from the time I can read stuff from what I should be doing, which I'll add that I enjoy it. Thread was closed by the time I looked at it anyways so there wasn't much point in reading it.

Searchwnd.

Doing searches on the entire forum database is a pretty hefty process, so searches get saved as temporary tables which expire after a short time. I'm always being srchpwnt

I agree that the forum is sometimes amusing, but its rare.

Ah! now I see, so whats so funny about that anyway

Nothing, i just resent and unfounded implication, and yet when i voice this i'm "Good lord Jak you just went off like a madman too".

I don't really know why i'm continuing this actually :S
