So lately there are many people who are distressed about the content and quality of this unique place in GLB we call FFA. If you are not distressed, you are more than likely part of the problem. I wanted to start a thread discussing some of the main problems we have here and what we can do to make it a more attractive place for quality posters to hang out. Below are some of my thoughts, and then I welcome all intelligent, thought out input. Let's make a move to make FFA THE forum.
I like to think of Forums as little cities. They have people, they have things to do, and they have crime. The Mods act as a stop gap between the idiots and the users that are genuinely trying to make this a better city.
So what kind of people do we want in our city?
First and foremost, genuine posters who care about the state in which they are living. Spammers are the dregs of this society, always taking and never giving. If you are spamming you should, and will be ostracized and hated. I will no longer be an active participant with any spammers.
What kinds of things do we want to do in our city?
We want good threads with a an open forum for the discussion of ideas and interests. Any useless threads about turtles or trying to get a mod to marry you is rediculous and unwanted. There is no discussion available, only an opportunity to tell you what an idiot you are...and that leads nowhere. PS - No girl responds to PMs asking for "n00d pics nao." FYI.
What crimes make this FFA city deteriorate?
Flamers, spammers, binary, and any thing else stated in the rules that are not followed MOST of the time. We break the rules all the time. And in society there is no spice without "bending the law" once in awhile, but be responsible for your actions. If you do the crime, do the time and shut up about it. You should probably be getting more sun anyway.
OK - now it's your turn. My apologies for the length, but these things must be talked about now to save what we love and care about.
