This topic is made so that people can ask questions about another user. e.g: Why did you choose that sig. This dose not mean you get to fire insults at people or harm them in any way, shape or form. This topic was made to help reduce spaming on other topics. DO NOT ASK PERSONAL QUESTIONS ABOUT ANOTHER USER IF YOU KNOW THEY DON'T LIKE IT. Have fun. :) EDIT: If this break's the CoC TELL ME.

In before the lock. This topic is not going reduce the spamming, only move it somewhere else. If people can't ask questions in other topics without getting the topic locked, then this topic will also get locked if the questions are asked. Did you think of that?

Well would it not be better if spaming be moved to one topic that have it on 100 topics. Did you think of that? And this is merely for questions that you could not ask on other topic because it would get locked for going off topic. And the questions would have to apply to the Coc.

By definition, this thread is off-topic. I doubt it will really decrease the random spam questions in other threads, just add a new source. Also, the system of PMs is there for a reason. If it's a really personal question, like "will you marry me?", maybe it doesn't need to be a public forum post? In general, I think open-ended topics like this are frowned upon. At least in a signature topic, there's some specified goal; this is more of a chatroom kind of thing, which can be accomplished better elsewhere. -------------------- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy, and taste good with ketchup.

Well the purpose was to decrease the spaming of other topics. This was just to help people who needed help with a game to get an actuall answer rather than have people shoot spam everywhere. If the protectors think this topic sucks and has no use of exsisting then they will shut it down. If they think it has a purpose then they will let it live. quote:If you know tell me because i just don't know.

For as long as forums have existed, there has been spam. Creating a topic specifically for spam just increases the spam. quote:Dear God. If every topic that went off-topic were locked... well there would be few if any open topics. :P quote:Why would someone be asking for help with a game in the General forum? :P quote:Bad idea. Never, ever ask TM to tell you why you suck. :P [ Friday, May 12, 2006 20:31: Message edited by: The Tyran Conspiracy ] -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

If you want to ask a question to another user, that's what private messages are for. No need to clutter up the forums. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |
