Enough already of the trash being posted in the off topic section. I am getting sick and tired of the crap being posted in all of these forums. If you don't have something decent to post about, don't waste our forums with your worthless crap. I am working on a more effective system for banning users this weekend, and will be looking forward to using it to clean up the garbage around here. This is a warning - post legitimate stuff or you will be removed. - MMORPG.COM Staff - |

That being said, does off topic really not mean spam? It sounds like you're getting a bit tired of the off topic forum.

god bless you, this place is really getting a lot of not useful post, posts that are being compleatly use to max post count and not to talk about things like they are suppose to do, plus i think that the spam forum should be use to set the threads taht are just spam and close them so no one can tlak in there anymore

What I am getting really tired of is seeing people post a bunch of trash: a) topics about other members (ie. "Here is a pic of <insert name> - he is a dork") b) anything that is a pointless post, intended to boost a post count c) a post that changes the topic completely

I am not really here to single anyone out. But yes, it is seemingly just a few people doing this. I am quite sure they know who they are. I would just like to see the forums become full of good discussions - not something that looks like an Instant Messenger conversation. - MMORPG.COM Staff - |

This shouldn't be like this... enough is enough. After Admin, kT and myself still have given fair warning, this still continues. . . Last warning. . . for everyone. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- |

If that were the case we would not have a spam forum. Off topic still requires that you have something usefull to discuss. Examples: a) other types of games What angers me is to see a legitimate topic started and then see people run it off course with stupid posts that have absolutely no purpose other than to raise a post count. I think I am going to remove the post count from peoples profiles very soon. We are going to come up with a unique system to gauge peoples activity in the site. Either that or we just need some really tough moderation around here. - MMORPG.COM Staff - |

Take off your cool |
If this does not stop, I will take time out of my daily workouts to crack down. If i'm going to have to do that, there are going to be a lot of deleted posts w/ hardcore moderation.

The post count thing I've always thought to be kind dumb. You must think of a different system, I think.

Too many people. Then people start writing short posts apparently to raise their post count, which makes admins actively look for spam which, in turn, makes other people have to worry that their post is going to be deleted because somebody thought it was spam.
