Question.

Just wondering why after I set my thread view to like 20 days I see only like 15 threads...half of which are closed.

WTF kinda fooked up board is this? More than half the posts are the moderators sending stupid @ssed comments...and being strict as h4ll.

I have no clue why this board is even open.

Oh and I realize the mods are going to have to reply...then another will reply to the mod's reply...and possible another...and then it will be closed.

But I really don't give a sh|t since almost all of the RF community are at my boards @ rfhq.com

You want to know why half of the posts are closed. I'd like to point you to the post directly above mine by vettinit-X-. THAT kind of behaviour is why posts are closed.

Why are we being strict as hell...because you guys force us to be strict as hell. There are plenty of other forums on this board and none of them pose a problem like this one does. So...if you guys start talking about stuff instead of complaining that there isn't enough memebers on this board then things will be fine, but until then....we just have vettinit-X- posting about how much he hates this board, how few posts there are, and wondering why nobody posts but him. Of course I just want to know why he keeps coming since he obviously hates it here....or maybe he doesn't and he's clinging to a half truth inside of his own twisted reality...the answer lies with him.

Thats funny....two of the three posts on this particular thread also fit into that category and mine is not one of them. Get some perspective guys...or don't bother.

O come on guys. They were hoping to bring the positve side of Volition here.

Hummm. If you wanted the positive side of Volition here, why did you create a Red Faction Discussion? How can we be positive when we got screwed as bad as we did?

Hmmm I really didn't think you got any pie. Maybe a few crumbs here and there.

Just look at the "extremely large" amount of posts/threads going on.

No see you forced people to be bitches here. That was your own doing...because when I first joined this board when it was starting up...almost every question asked was a smartassed comment for one of u mods.

I remember numerous times you guys were being bitches about how u could edit peoples posts for the fun of it...and we only have a day or some stupid ****.

THat is the kinda behaviour that gets ppl like vett all bitchy.

Anywhere else he does NOT act like that. He does it just b/c of YOU dumbassed mods.

THANK YOU
spoken like a true player.
And thanks again jet for that awesome post here last night. amongst all my problems that served to lighten my night a little.

And for you moderating moderates... I do believe that if you look back at previous posts by me that you will find that some rather good content was involved.. good content as you would have it.

But I play the game for fun, and I post for fun, therefore I must be haveing some sort of fun when I am here cause this is game related. So YES I do mix in the jokes etc. with the good content etc. BUT I hate it when everytime all I get is either smart alec little kids remarks or pun aimed towards me or worse shutdown of post.
Dont get me wrong, smart alecness and fun jivingback and forth can draw a narrow line.

As far as why I continue coming back here...your on my list. I have a folder on desktop with shortcuts to many forums and run through them once a day or less. And its always interesting to see what you mods have come up with next and the challenge of keeping up with your witty comments I most enjoy.

i dont care either way. as long as there's one of 3 things:

1) good posts that people write for arguments, intellectual conversation (thats a long shot), kind chatter

2) careless posts of simple replies.

3) flames.

now, i especially like the #3, because that grants me the opportunity to make the owner of a post type #3 eat their own words per se.

so if there's lack of conversation, i dont really care because there's general discussion and the FS 1/2 forum, which people seem to be a bit more positive towards.

HERE IN LIES EXACTLY THE REASON WHY I GIVE YALL A HASSLE HERE. You admit to the fact that you like and look forward to messing with people posts. its almost as though you revel in it. you thrive it.
and worse you joke about the small amount of useless power you have here and use it to belittle and scare others.
I have news for you......when you do that.. and you do.. your the only one laughing

No, i dont care if people (unimportant) hate me, and i never said "wtf? why j00 hates me?!? waaah".

Yes, it is very funny when we (I) do it, and the other administrators frown upon me because i take special pleasure in changing peoples' posts from an insolent, aggrevated nature, to something witty and comical and lightening. If you take offense to it, please be a kind poster and the issue will not arise.

Not exactly ... i dont look forward to "messing" with peoples posts, i hate having to spend an extra nanosecond swamping through worthless filth of messages. That's why i feel it's necessary to make it something fun and enjoyable not just for me, but for everyone else to read. see quote above for more details.

quote:
...continued...
and worse you joke about the small amount of useless power you have here and use it to belittle and scare others.
Women tell me it's quite large... but thats another topic I dont try to scare anyone. I also tried not to prejudge who exactly, or what kind of posters we would have in this forum. As we didn't lay down strict rules to begin with (on posters' behaviour, what's tolerated, etc) it seems this sort of conflict was inevitable. I guess that just means more threads to close, and more to edit (see above quotes 1 and 2).

quote:
...sigh...
I have news for you......when you do that.. and you do.. your the only one laughing.
Dont worry, it's not news. And i believe quite a few other people find it VERY humorous. There are plenty of things i do with these threads, but i doubt you want to dabble in my personal life...

So here's my suggestion to you's:
Be kind, dont litter, and for the sake of the kittens, dont masturbate.

aside from that, get a little more maturity. i act the way i do because it is necessary. Please dont tell anyone it is necessary for you to act the way you do, because unless you've got a very, very hard life with nothing, nobody will respect that. there's also the issue of raging hormones, and I'm sure your parents (hopefully) had the sex talk with you. If not, use [url=http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=puberty]google[/url] and solve that issue.

Jet.....I find it very hard to believe that Volition "forces" you to be a bitch. That's a decision you've made on your own. You can choose to be a negative force or you can choose to be a positive force.
