Please keep the post padding to appropriate threads

Listen, I honestly don't mind post padding, but there's a time and a place for it. Threads like Word Association are made for it, for example. Blatant post padding in any forum other than Ejections is pretty much automatically inappropriate, and post padding in threads where real discussions are going on is not just inappropriate, it's rude and disrespectful.

I just spent the last 45 minutes cleaning up a bunch of garbage all over the place. I'm all but certain that I didn't get it all, and I had to kick someone off of the boards temporarily to do it. This stuff isn't cool, and I really hope that I don't have to do it again. I'm more likely to hand out longer suspensions and not lift them after posting this message. I don't want to do that, so please don't force my hand.

Thank you.

sorry, just got out of hand. I am still not well after surgery, and have had nothing to do. Bored teenager=chaos. I will keep control of myself, and I hopefully Metsguy234 will as well

I'm just crazy, but I don't pad...

yes you did, me and you were going back and forth last night

You're not the only one, and I assure you that you didn't loose anything meaningful.

None of your business.

Well the two most likely suspects have been eliminated as possibilities. :D

wat?

A watt? That's an electric measurement of power at one point in time, as capacity or demand.

I've cleaned up another thread.

Guys, honestly, grow up, at least a little bit.

What thread?

nvm, just figured it out...

HGM apparently has no sense of humor...

It has nothing to do with that.

The post in the "Eek!" thread were generally good-natured and funny (and most were posted by the thread creator anyway)

Ohms already cleaned that thread up before today. Still, in the main forums, threads should remain on-topic as best as possible.

agreed... and, having already issued one waring in te original post, I'm sorely tempted to give a few of you a couple of days off. I'll hold off for now, but...

This is annoying, padding must stop (I can't believe I am saying this, but I am)

Get rid of post counts, make a repuatation level instead...so that new users know who to go.

Guys grow up, feel free to post as much as possible...but keep on topic.

People, please don't create fake names like Advice Dog and Albert Pujols. It just gets annoying to read useless posts made by people who really don't care.

No more alts. Period.

Three of you are taking a 24 hour break. Let's leave it at that, please.

hey its summer lol the teenagers have nothing to do :p

Lucky for you guys I go back to school the 19th....oh wait I don't do anything wrong :D :P

Good.

Does this mean no more Joe Morgan?

well he has already been added so im not sure. i asume its no MORE people but you never know. either way... ummm... i dont know where I was going with that but ok yea :) sorry

oh yea i remember now lol

I wonder if they will have BMO on their own server now if/when they get the new update up and running.

Joe can stay. Bingle knows how to behave himself, and his Joe alt actually adds to some conversations. Bingle/Joe isn't the problem here.

ps.: Yea, Dee and Clay are still talking about moving the league forums to a separate board as far as I know. I hope they still plan to do so, because then the two communities can actually be, you know, two communities!
:)

Ok just wondering because when you said

oh snap!

:rolleyes:

I meant what I said. No more alts.

How do you stop it though? Do you ban IP's if a guy gets banned?

It appears we can not see our post totals anymore. That is disappointing, because it helped me tell if the other users contributed regularily. What did you clean up Houston?

it does really suck becaus i like to help people every once and a while and i can generaly tell if a guy has been playing for a really long time if he has a ton of posts (basic I know but it seems effective) and dont have to be SUPER low tech lol (for lack of a better way to put it)

HOWEVER to stop the blatant padding in inapropreate ways i guess we will all get used to it

Annoying... ABSOLUTLY
a reason to leave... I doubt that


i kinda like u guys :p

Except Rick D btw :p

he is an irrational Yankees fan and they are the worst :p

I am glad the post counts are gone :)

it looks werid thou...

Thankyou Dee.


EDIT: Thanks Clay!
