View Full Version : Forum behaviour that cheeses me off.

Not pointing finger at anyone specific

.......... but it really gets up my nose when someone posts a question & members go to the bother of doing their best to answer that question & the original poster doesn't have the good manners to at least acknowledge those answers, let alone thank those who have bothered to answer for their effort. Mainly this is new posters, but even so, surely their parents taught them how to behave!

Yeah I know, it's just part of forum life, but there are some bloody rude b*stards out there who just take.

I agree cuppa but i dont think we need another thread telling us how to behave. This place is only just getting back to normal after the last PC thread lol.

Perhaps if you see someone that seems unthankful just PM them and mention it.

I agree cuppa but it is us who offer without expectation that are the better people and why this forum is what it is.

Have you called anyone ape that you don't know to their face recently?

Or do you only do that online?

It's not about being PC it's about respect and common decency, both online and in the real world.

For someone who claims "got bigger things to worry about than behaviour of folk on here" you sure seem to worry a lot.

Finally ! Some sense! That bloke right there has it in one! These threads drive me nut just by the potential effect on the group. Really can get people asking the question of each other and ourselves.

On a other forum I am active on they have 2 stickies in the general chat section....

"What has made you happy today"
"What has made you Mad today"

Just to vent!

When I get near a computer I think I might start those as Vent threads.

Happy days! It's a long weekend and I'm working in my shed.

Here here... I know this thread is just a general vent but the way I see it. If you have a problem with someone and you feel its pissed you off enough to say something. Do it personally. No real need to get everyone involved when it doesn't concern them.

Hey Rod,
No mate not at all. Speak up in a Vent thread for sure, feel free. Pm me or any other Mod or pm the person you have trouble with.

The point was that a level of self analysis is fine but constant self analysis can be destructive by its nature.

Over the life of this forum I have seen MANY "how good are we" type threads that get up my nose just as much mate, find them a little pretentious to be honest and try and ignore them. Same goes with these threads. Very little good comes from them IMO.

This is a Great place! No doubt about it at all. A place to hang with my mates. Thanks guys. Alway garauanteed to have a good read and a giggle by some of the hijacks and dribble set amongst some quality advice with an underlying general level of respect for each other.

Regardless of what some may have thought over the last 6 months or so Very Little Moderation is undertaken or required here because of our general sense of decency, respect for each other and quality a world view. Our obvious Moral Integrity stands us head and shoulders above others on the net especially places like face book groups which can be deplorable and offensive full of trash talking trash to each other.

This is a great place, I know it, you know it, Cuppa knows it, Clunk knows it! Even bloody Newby knows it! Have a vent in a vent thread, I would like to try and limit more self analysis threads though guys, they are simply unnecessary and potentially destructive.

IMO

Hi Darren,

There is no doubt this is a great place, that's why people speak up. If they didn't care they wouldn't say anything.

I am a member of a few forums (some I don't even bother posting on).

Once again, I do not think it has anything to do with the mods. I know you guy's do a great, often thankless job.

It seems in the last 6 months or so that the forum is being controlled by the minority LOUD members and if you don't agree with their thinking well........

Nothing wrong with self analysis, it helps you to grow.

Cheers Rodney

Stop looking for the bad in people. If your pi$$ed off about how I may have behaved in another thread then damn well tell me. Enough of this insinuating. It drives me mad!

The fact is, the people that cuppa is referring to in the OP probably aren't going to care that this thread has been put up. And in reality unfortunately, a thread like this isn't going to make the place happier it just makes the regulars feel uneasy that they may have done something wrong while the ungrateful people continue on their way without a care.
No offense ment to you cuppa.:-)
