+1
Go back to your arcade
NOOOOOooo
Posting Memes
Posting Image Macros
Posting stupid Youtube replies
Name Calling
Ignoring facts
Claiming to be experts (while obviously not)
etc.

These are all the things that drives people away from not only these forums, but the game as well.

Oh the irony LOL

What percentage of your posts would you say are less than a complete sentence? This is the problem. People just want to get their jabs in, instead of actually explaining what they are talking about, or where they are coming from.

The thread that I posted before about the 109 sight is indeed a good example of the regulars, posting like ignorant old codgers, and in doing that showing newer member that they should follow suit as well. It results in the useless comments getting out of control and overshadowing and drowning out the useful ones.

Exactly, you rarely see these same "people" talking about anything actual game related in threads that they've created themselves, it's all about jumping in threads and proving how wrong someone is even when someone isn't wrong. Like I've mentioned before these "people" don't care about the game at all, some of them have over a thousand posts but have less than 10 game related threads that they have made themselves. The best way to get rid of them is to simply stop replying to them even if you really really want to. Stop responding to them and they will slowly fade away since they rarely contribute to anything on their own, just like parasites they are nothing without a host.

Even more effective method would be stopping posting the same old whiner bs. I guarantee no fanboy would ever attack him.

I don't remember the poster who publicly displayed those forum members he has on his ignore list but it's a good way to go. Maybe not letting the world know who you have on ignore, but the act of ignoring those who offend you. I have several posters on ignore. I'm sure I've pissed off someone somewhere along the way too so that I'm on someone's ignore list.

There's plenty of blame for this forums downward spiral. On both sides of the argument. I'm no expert, but based on their argumentative skills, I doubt most of the main players from either camp ever excelled at debate.

Keep it clean, have a discussion, show a little respect to each other. Its not difficult really.
This is not a kindergarten, and baiting each other might have consequences.

Would this be a bad time to point out that I never posted in that thread?

Eitherway I still don't see how that thread has anything to do with the topic at hand, but since you failed to address my last post stating my point of view on that I don't expect this post will get any traction either

Aren't you the guy that just posted a picture of a broken record as a reply? Very mature and insightful.
