Thread Hijacking , Flaming , etc.
2004-06-27, 2:00 PM #1
Recently (within the last week, to be specific) there has been a huge increase of flaming and hijacking that I've noticed. Let me repeat again that these things are not tolerated.

What has been sad about the thread hijackings have been that they are planned, just to piss someone off. It's stupid, immature and childish. And making someone mad has been THE SOLE reason for making the hijacks. For God's sake, just please stop, and think clearly.

And of course, I think everyone has heard the lecture on flaming time and time again, and frankly, I am not going to spend too much time explaining it again. Flaming is not tolerated. Flaming in self-defense is also not tolerated. If you are mad that someone is insulting you and you want him banned, and you just go insult him back, you are being extremely hypocritical, and is also very childish. It's best if you just seriously lay off, before you get in trouble also. Do not try to justify your insults because someone else's were making you feel bad. If you can't handle someone making fun of you on a Star-Wars Gaming forum, then you really shouldnt' complain when you get insulted, because it's human nature that tempers will flare, and flaming here has become inevitable.

While thread hijacking may not be specifically outlawed in the rules, it is more of a common sense thing. But these recent occurences have explained to me that some people just really do not have that much common sense. Also, please try, when possible, to keep the forum on it's intended track. We can have very good debates going, and somoene will just start a flame war, totally ruining the thread. KEEP THE THREAD ON TOPIC, FOR GODS SAKE, IF POSSIBLE!!! So, I please ask you to use your common sense, however little it may be.

Banning has commenced. Run, run while you still can! MUAHAHAHAHAH!!!!

Wow, I should've known better. We've already got a few people attempting to make a joke out of a serious matter. I'm not in a very good mood, after handing out numberous bans.

Keep the discussion related to the topic for god's sake. Don't be an idiot.
