    Posted: 19 August 2007 at 11:30pm
So with all the aggravating people posting here as of late, I have an idea for a new rule.  After being guested once, if a person is to be guested again within 365 days of the last guesting, the person should be IP banned for at least 30 days.  Any offense after that is a permanent ban.

So, sound good?

Yea, this forum is a lot less strict than other forums I post on.  The forum of a certain organization I belong to (membership is $39 a month, they have 400,000 members) does not allow discussion of anything but the topic they deal with.  Some, like me, will be trouble makers and post thing about the mods and such.  The mods take this into account and usually just close the thread, but many times they ban people.

Be nice to have this place kept in order better, but I guess thats not gonna happen any time soon.

Suck it up.

The forum isn't nearly as bad as it was during one or two earlier periods (See: the downfall of #tippmann).

Apart from the rampant stupidity that has prospered here in the last year or so, it is nowhere near as bad as it could be.

Don't you even attempt to bring about a new iron-sided rule where one could get ip banned for virtually nothing. The mods only IP ban if they seriously have to (and it's even pretty easy to get past that if you know what you're not an idiot)

Don't make my forum experience a living hell beacuse of your newfound angst (which came about in a very true, and deserving strike)

Most importantly - People suck.

This is nowhere near the tornado of torment that was the tippmann forum roughly 2 years ago. Half of the threads where whining about the forum, the other half where telling people to quit whining.

I think it was just before that.

Just after the "But why was I guested?" phase.

You DO realize that you're one of probably the top 4 that would get IP banned if the general population of the forum was in charge of such weaponry don't you?
