lawl, guys, remember the Smash-Up versus Lino war?

And all of you are right. This place is gonna fall apart, we have to fix this somehow, or the game will be completely destroyed.


Heh, I forgot all about that. And it's "-" in Smash Up anymore. :p

Excuse me for the harsh words but what in the fuck has happen to this place? Every time I fucking log on now all I see is locked threads because of people bitching at each other. The more I see this shit the more it makes me just want to stop visiting this fucking website. I just thought I would get this out....


Yeah, i feel the same. It makes it all less pleasant sometimes to visit this forum. Some people just cant get allong with eachother, thats for sure. But thats for them to work that out. Please try to do that and you will feel better. In general to make it all a bit nicer to enter here, we all must change our attitude. Im not here from the beginning when the new forum restarted, but i was here in the old forum, and it seems in my memory, that people were not always nice to eachother, but the roleplay section was a sacred place. ROLEPLAY ONLY. Not always but for 90% maybe. Now this has all changed. It seems. But its never to late to change. One thing is certain however. Closing topics and threads all the time has no future for this forum, i surely feel this way. (look at it how many there are).

PANIC!'s post on the previous page pretty much sums up my thoughts on the whole affair.

Generally, I'd attribute this "rough patch" to being lack of a game, and the Roleplay section being dry because no one wants to bother without a genuine game to back up their work. It's easier for most to wait, it seems.

Aside from that, Roleplay is generally a rather selfish domain in what it is, where people post minimally and not articulately, and only in their friends/labelmates threads as opposed to anyone elses. Everyone's stuck in the same box.

The forum HAS gone through rough patches in the past. In my view, this is just another one, and we as a forum will get through it. The fights WILL taper off and fade away.
As for people leaving because of fights - I pledge allegiance to my board and I'm not going anywhere. Even if I'm the last one standing, no fight will stop me.

I don't ever remember a "rough patch" quite like this one, and i've been here since the original forum. I can think of one easy fix for it, because the whole "okay, let's all be nice and get along" attitude is a silly thing to actually believe in. If there is one thing I have learned in the time I've been around, provocations are usually nothing more than attention grabs. If someone who keeps trying to pick fights long enough has earned enough cold shoulders, perhaps they'll turn around. The usual thing that happens is a damn forum post is taken to heart and bam! another thread down the drain.

Sitting around and trying to "be nice" doesn't work. People are people and they aren't going to change just to get along with someone they don't like. How about ignore the folks you don't like and leave them alone, and they'll leave you alone, too. Simple, isn't it?

Everyone is really over-reacting. There was a dumb argument, we slammed our collective fists on the table and now, if we'd all please shut about it we can go back to the way things were.

Thats where your wrong, there were a lot of arguments and it had most people thinking of leaving the forum. Perhaps we are overacting but we are entitled too.

There were not lots of arguments, and if you want to leave, fine, go right ahead, but frankly this whole thing is really being blown out of all proportion. We're talking about a petty argument on a tiny forum, it's totally nothing worth getting worked up about. Other than two specific arguments (one of which I diffused weeks ago), I honestly can't think of any others. If you have an argument at school one day, you don't up and leave school. Go have a cool drink, everything is fine, the board isn't suddenly going to be shut down over a couple of folk arguing about fictional bands.

Other mods have mentioned this but we can't stress it enough apparently: This is the Internet. Sometimes people argue. Get over it.

The point is that the forum was becoming a crappy place to be. Perhaps you are underacting? We know its just the internet, but obviously we care about the forums a bit more than you do.

That's not it. He's a mod, which he requested to become because he wanted to improve the forums for all of us. None of you guys can say the forum is worse for the addition of mods.

If you're just going to keep complaining, just start your own forum, get a box of tissues and have a good old cry (or whatever else you may choose to do on your own with a box of tissues, I'm not one to judge...).

Its not that, he said we are overacting and many of us feel that he is underacting. Just an opinion and those are like as* holes, everyone's got one.

And on that note, I have found the REAL TRSG Forum theme song.


Lyrics:
Look around yourself, what do you see,
All this fighting is so pointless to me,
This world is about to fall apart,
We have to fix this or it's back to the start

Can you help me,
It's so dark here and I can't see,
I need to find my way out,
The night is darkest before dawn.

Still running around in this maze,
How did I get to this place,
The walls are closing in,
It's time for justice to step in.
I open up the door,
And nothing I see is what I waited for,
I start to feel faithless,
And this is all because it's endless.

Is this all a war to save our souls,
Or a fight for some to gain control,
If we ever break free from these chains,
How many of us will remain.

Can you tell me,
Will any of us ever be free,
I feel my time is running out.
Please tell me what's this all about.

Still running around in this maze,
How did I get to this place,
The walls are closing in,
It's time for justice to step in.
I open up the door,
And nothing I see is what I waited for,
I start to feel faithless,
And this is all because it's endless.




I believe I speak for all of us when I say that it fits very well.

I am not going anywhere...however I am with the bearded one on this...stop fucking crying about it, your all acting like its the end of the goddamned world. If you want to leave then fucking well do it, just stop bleating about it. Your going to have arguments (which I have no idea what the fuck it is in this case) in real life...why should a message board be any different?
