Okay kids time to get all kindergarten up in here.

There has been a lot of bad blood in the forums over the last couple months. Some people have proven themselves childish/annoying/plain stupid, and a lot more people have taken to using them as their personal ego punching bags. I speak for an awful lot of the mods and probably a fair number of members when I say we are sick of it. We expect decent community interaction, and we're going to be kicking people out until we get it.

Everyone deserves a fair shake. No doubt some have already had theirs and wasted it, but that is still no excuse to harass their every movement on the forum. Respect what posts you can respect, and keep your thoughts on the rest to yourself. Everyone says stupid shit on occasion, and we all deserve, nay, we all have the right to have that stupid shit ridiculed by our peers. But the problem we have here is people making fun of people, not what people are saying. It's old, it's not funny, it's mean. That means spamming pictures of people, harassing them for reasons completely unrelated to the thread, and the general circle jerk of bullying a few members for kicks. I mean after all, if they're as dumb as many claim then what exactly is the thrill of beating up on such a person? If they're trolling then why are you giving them what they want?

This is not an invitation to troll or continue exaggerated ignorance for the sake of attention whoring the forums. You will be put out on your ass just as quickly.

If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

fuck that. i feel we will always have censorship, but one should be able to express one's self.

i was reading older threads, and not much has changed, in my opinion. the 'oldtimers' have moved on, with a few exceptions.
hell, the admins barely log in at all, and the mods that we see daily are a fraction of the total.

this site has evolved (i can't type 'matured' with a straight face) and i like the fact that we have a Music, Tech, and Sports sections.
if older members are going to ragequit/account suicide, well, that's their prerogative. if newer members are going to behave like jackasses, why shouldn't they get the boot?

Good post, FM. Glad to see the mods are noticing this.


Been shying away from this place myself, seeing as how degraded it's become.

To be perfectly blunt and not being personal about this, no one is asking you to sign in either.

If you can come and follow the rules, then yeah BF2S wants you. If you can't, save everyone the trouble.

So why do you feel you need to protect the helpless beings of bf2s? Yes i can see where you're coming from, i've seen undue spitefulness here and there, mainly in the BF2 Media section.

But when you as a mod, feel you have to protect relatively long standing members of the community, i just laugh at you. 9 times out of 10, these very members bring it upon themselves and more often than not, they give it as good as they get it. But then the intelligent majority see this member being a total fucking bellend and join in and ridicule them also.

But meh, i guess you felt like waving your dick around once again.

It's not about protecting them. If it were up to me certain people would be flayed upon a cross. Fact remains that we are trying to keep this forum relatively asshole-free, and the recent jump in harassment is highly counterproductive.

p.s. the intelligent majority keeps their collective mouth shut. How often do you see anyone over 25 joining in with any regularity?

i beg to differ Mek - shitfy is not trolling. imo he is socially deficient and trying to hard to be accepted. the 'trying to hard' part is what rails everyone.

This isn't FM waving his dick around. There was discussion in the mod forums about this matter before this post was made.
