I just notice way too many things in the forums lately that bother the hell out of me.
1. Before posting a thread, check the forum to see if the topic has already been covered. There shouldnt be 6 Tszyu vs. Mitchell threads for exapmle, running wild at the same time. I waste too much time merging all of them.
2. Post threads in the proper boards, tired of moving downloads, fantasy and lounge topics from the non-stop boxing board.
3. Dont spam the board with multiple threads, some users are starting 5-6 threads at a time in the same board. While I appreciate that these users are trying to contribute to the board, it does nothing but make the board look bad when half of their posts end up with no replies. Spread topics out throughout the board and give your threads a chance to replies before posting new threads.
4. Make posts with some meaning, there have been some real garbage posts as of late.
5. Stick to the topic, dont come into threads starting problems with someone you have a beef with. If you have a problem with a user, take it up with them in the lounge or by private message. Dont rush into every thread they are involved in to rehash your prior war of words, all you do is make more enemies and make a thread to go shit. Several users have been banned from here due to constantly doing this.
BTW: Some mods will be put in place on these forums, right now I'm figuring out who are the most level headed people for the task.
Spoken like a real life low self esteem bimbo from a trailer park. Stop stealing my points :D
Nah, that's YOUR gig, dick head, remember?? :rolleyes:
I'll stop stealing your points when you stop being a complete dick....in other words, never!
He has to do that in order to feel better about himself. It doesnt bother me anymore cause he has no credibility at all; he makes sure of that with everything he posts :rolleyes:
Attention seekers will say ANYTHING for that attention; even if it's all bad attention ;)

I nominate that Shakira gif to be a sticky at the top of the boards.
i second it
nah but back to topic, if Rick does decide to have mods, when are you (Rick) planning to announce it, i nominate myself, have no problems with no-one on the site, i think :o
our future super moderator hard at work

Examples?
The old popular threads are not a problem, in my view.
The many new unpopular threads seems to be more of a problem!
well they shouldnt be deleted but be locked so no one can post on them but you can view them, some threads just need to be close
I actually do miss the "Clean Cut Boxing" forum a lot. Few people have been posting there but most of the discussion were founded on knowledge and respect towards the other opinion. Maybe you could bring that one back Rick?
yea Non Stop Boxing forum is about to be rename Non Stop Infamouz... :cool:
good stuff - this guy makes a new thread everytime a thought pops in his head, and 2/3 of the time even without a thought.
I don't want Sweet Dick Willy as the moderator; he's too fun on the boards. A few less silly insults, and he'd be one of the guys to look up to on the board - someone with boxing knowledge, who is able to contribute intelligently to topics in the lounge, is on about every day...
Maybe someone who registers, types a bunch of inane crap and then is inactive for months should have their stuff all erased and profile erased, too. There's too many users with less than 10 or 20 posts who just go away...
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL :eek:
What's so funny. I'm offering you my service free of charge to make this a better place. I'd start by banning all whiners especially those who toss stones and steal points. I should be a "super" moderator if you ask me. I won't even post if elected moderator to avoid conflict of interest :D
The multiple threads dont bother me nearly as much as the unnecessary insults; and what you said about jumping on a thread, in the middle of a discussion and/or debate just to attack someone over the same old issues has gotten way out of hand. Good posting advice.....let's hope it helps! ;)
Shut up, skank!
that would help, i hate when people bring up threads, especially when they expire months ago, or weeks ago, i hate that

Could one program the threads, that receive less than say 10 replies in say 3 days, to expire automatically?
That would clear out a lot of space.
(Also, giving negative points for threads like that would be good ;) )

I bumped a Tzysu/Mitchell thread up from a couple weeks ago looking to get a tally of everyones thoughts on the fight, It was the only one I noticed. So that was me, I must have missed the more recent Tzysu/Mitchell threads while I was going through.
I merged them into one and deleted some dupes
