Stupid Spam Rules
- Thread starter NSL
- Start date
it's sad though. Look at it through a business stand point. they're trying to make money, not please 10 people when 40 think the new rules are great. First time in a long time I logged off then logged backed on in like 10 hours just to see pages and pages of posts. Under the old rules I'd log on to only like 3 new pages of posts.
It's created a lot of activity, and whether you like it or not, i think it's the right choice.

of course, non of this chocolate crap
This doesn't mean that they're quality posts, or quality discussions. I've logged off, due to boredom, and then when I logged back on, I've read through pages of posts, and don't find anything worth replying to.
I know it's a business for them. I think it's better to please the people that are here repeatedly, than please people that will probably be gone after Wrestlemania.
People make 5 paragraph posts but that doesn't mean they are good. I have found some great one or two line posts that are worth replying too. At least they're attempting to create discussion while others, myself included sit back and not do anything. When we had the strict spam rules there was like 3 people trying to spark discussion, now there's a couple of hands full. At least they are trying, and obviously people are agreeing with them, or disagreeing because if they weren't no one would reply in their thread. I don't understand this bitching thing because it's not going to change. If you don't like it go find somewhere else to post. it isn't that hard.
The quality is still there, people are trying to make excuses now, and I don't see why.
[QUOTE="Rowdy" Monkey Piper;854606]Delete this why? Oh because you made a rash fucking decision? Lee, you were given clemency for a reason. Now I can see why you should have stayed fucking banned in the first place. You're just as bad as Coco.[/QUOTE]
I strongly disagree with this.

The threads that the newer posters are starting, are usually littered with the same crappy posts as the OP. The best threads that I've seen lately have been from regular posters, that have been here since before the rule change.
I've thought about going to a different wrestling forum. While I know this has no effect on WZ, I'm sure that I'm not the only one that's considered it, and if there's enough of people thinking the same way, then it does hurt the forum.
It's posts like these, that make my head hurt, and make me second-guess why I saign on here every day:
Does he state a point? Yes. Does he support it? Yes, but by the loosest meaning of the word. Is it a quality post? No. Does it create new discussion? No.

About something you have no reason to put your opinion in on. You're not in the fed are you? Didnt think so. Go back to talking about football. Something you might know a little bit about.
Really? I thought we decided that having a fear of posting on a wrestling forum was ridiculous.
Exactly.
You don't have to worry about it taking up our time. If we didn't want to do it, we'd quit as moderators. Quit making excuses for us.
Which is no different than the way it was at the same time last year. Except we have a lot more activity.
No, they didn't. This "quality" you speak of was no where NEAR what you are making it out to be. Most of the replies were shit. Oh sure, they had a bunch of words to them, but they were completely awful, and lacking any kind of logical reasoning.
Just because they were long, doesn't mean they were good, and the majority of the posts weren't good.
That may be, but it appears as if just as many, if not more, people believe that the forums have been much more enjoyable lately, so apparently, many of us think they are doing well like they are.
That's your fault then. Because I've found plenty of things that have been good, and worth discussing. If you'd quit being so negative and open your mind to the truth, you'd find better discussion to. But, you're only looking for the bad, and are criticizing everything without giving it a fair shot to be good.
Believe me, there is plenty of good discussion, MUCH better than it was before, when there would be 30 new threads, and only 4 of them would be wrestling related, and half the posts wouldn't even come close to being logical.
I doubt they'll be gone after Wrestlemania. Some will leave, sure, but we'll get new people after Wrestlemania too. Wrestling forums aren't like a fireworks store.

Cody Rhodes is an excellant
Red Rep
Which does nothing, rep is absolutely worthless, and all you are gonna do is possibly scare off potential good posters, instead of helping them improve and become better posters
You could lead be example and post quality posts, just a thought...
I rarely read posts that are that long, I useally skip over that majority of long posts, where as I am more willing to read posts that are a simple paragragh

Shit like this is what causes people to leave the forums, seriously why would a poster want to post here if they are just going to be attacked and belittled by a mod
I have to agree with the arguement of this place has been funner past couple of days. I've been keeping up with everything, but hadn't anywhere to post for quite sometime, due to no conversation. With relaxed spam rules, it has made it alot more interesting and I have actually posting again. I think that could be a reason luther quit posting, there was just no interesting conversations. (Note: I dont know why luther quit posting, I'm not speaking for him on that. Its just an idea.)
I've been posting a whole lot more. I guess it's because I feel like I dont have to write a book everytime I type a post. So the new spam rule doesnt reallly bother me. Sure some very short and pointless posts can be annoying, but I can live with a few now and then.
