[QUOTE=garry;28342847]Criticism is fine. But there's a line. [editline]28th February 2011[/editline] However I interpret it. If you're in any doubt then keep it to yourself.[/QUOTE] So the whole "the forums should selfgovern" buzzphrase I've been hearing just meant nothing?
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;28343228]to be honest i'd rather not spellcheck and such as its just an internet forum and wheter you have capital letters or not the message still gets accross. it will make it harder to read when random words are red [editline]28th February 2011[/editline] why did you do that[/QUOTE] *across
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;28343228] why did you do that[/QUOTE] Rewrote it as I forgot he wasn't banned.
[QUOTE=garry;28343271]*across[/QUOTE] point proven i misspelled a word and you still knew what i meant
[QUOTE=garry;28343165]Show me a good reason why we need it[/QUOTE] Completely obliterates the shitty posting habit many users have made their own. It's your forum, you might as well give it a clean appearance. It'll up the standards to a point above "Fucking retarded", back to Fucking Incredible. Sure, there'll be a ban-fest at first since people need to get used to it, but the gain of higher quality seems pretty big. It roots out the retards before they even come in contact with mods, saving a lot of trouble and giving mods more time overall to keep the forum in a good condition. It worked well back in <07, it just needs an update. Besides, you can always disable it in certain subforums where there isn't any moderating at all, or where most of the people that barely speak english go (GMod subforum).
No, I mean show me posts that require it. At least 50.
[QUOTE=garry;28343343]No, I mean show me posts that require it. At least 50.[/QUOTE] I'll do this. (It's a collaborative project now)
[QUOTE=garry;28343343]No, I mean show me posts that require it. At least 50.[/QUOTE] have you ever been to fast threads?
[QUOTE=garry;28343069]No it isn't, I am. You guys have been hugged by Hezzy for too long. It's time to reintroduce the cane.[/QUOTE] What do you mean when you say 'hugged by Hezzy'? That he was too lenient, or something?
[QUOTE=O'10er;28343400]What do you mean when you say 'hugged by Hezzy'? That he was too lenient, or something?[/QUOTE] No, he was just protecting us from garry's cane
the forums were hugged by hezzy alright bear hugged by idiot culls
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;28343419]the forums were hugged by hezzy alright bear hugged by idiot culls[/QUOTE] we could use another one of those right about now
[QUOTE=The Mighty Boatman;28343427]we could use another one of those right about now[/QUOTE] moderator cull of 2011
[QUOTE=The Mighty Boatman;28343373]have you ever been to fast threads?[/QUOTE] Well, posts there doesn't count towards postcount, so that wouldn't be fair.
[QUOTE=garry;28343165]Show me a good reason why we need it[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.facepunch.com/forums/15-Garry-s-Mod-Discussion[/url] Full to breaking point of idiots with no regard for language.
[QUOTE=garry;28343165]Show me a good reason why we need it[/QUOTE] Every other member shitposting like fps_THEPWNER is annoying to read, if you're gonna have the emotes, upgrades and other shit from SA why can't we drop some of the shitposting? Some threads are like a FYAD-lite around here [QUOTE=garry;28343343]No, I mean show me posts that require it. At least 50.[/QUOTE] It's hard to find a thread without at least one
[QUOTE=SEKCobra;28343336]lol wo kommst du her, garry war schon immer ein schwanz. [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Yes, I can read german" - garry))[/highlight][/QUOTE] 1 month ban for calling you a penis seems pretty harsh.
I'm a harsh man
[QUOTE=garry;28343069]No it isn't, I am. You guys have been hugged by Hezzy for too long. It's time to reintroduce the cane.[/QUOTE] This doesn't make any sense, you were the one who ordered that moderation should be relaxed. Furthermore, tightening up moderation should be about enforcing the firm but fair rules we had a few years back, not surrounding yourself with morally reprehensible mods who are ridiculed by the community not because the community is a malicious being but because of their own incompetence.
[QUOTE=Ali Legend;28343562]1 month ban for calling you a penis seems pretty harsh.[/QUOTE] its a p funny ban though gotta admit
[QUOTE=garry;28343579]I'm a harsh man[/QUOTE] Jeez, I think we noticed
Please move the Games section above Bullshit. Is this a Games forum or a Bullshit forum? :v:
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;28343606]its a p funny ban though gotta admit[/QUOTE] i think the one where hezzy posted an essay about harry potter having gay sex with ron was pretty good. the one about an odd number of vowels is def. in my top 10

That'll just make me ban you.
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;28343606]its a p funny ban though gotta admit[/QUOTE] 1 month seems kinda awkward because Racism Bans only last a week or not? The first one atleast.
[QUOTE=Soul-Chicken;28343620]Please move the Games section above Bullshit. Is this a Games forum or a Bullshit forum? :v:[/QUOTE] I keep mistaking Fast Threads for GGD.

[highlight](User was banned for this post ("Yes, I can read german" - garry))[/highlight][/QUOTE] [quote]lol where you from, garry has always been a tail.[/quote] Google translate didn't quite get that one right... Hate having multiple windows open, keep nearly posting in the wrong one.
[QUOTE=Soul-Chicken;28343515][url]http://www.facepunch.com/forums/15-Garry-s-Mod-Discussion[/url] Full to breaking point of idiots with no regard for language.[/QUOTE] Not to mention Help and Support and Fast Threads. That said, smartness could be useful but not as much as strict, fair moderation like we had before '09.
[QUOTE=JesterUK;28343645]I keep mistaking Fast Threads for GGD.[/QUOTE] I do this too and i am horrified upon entering.
[QUOTE=The Combine;28343643]1 month seems kinda awkward because Racism Bans only last a week or not? The first one atleast.[/QUOTE] try mocking/insulting a person on their own website
