Group hug!

*The Defibrillator* · 11-21-2003, 11:58 AM

I recently visited a band I like's Message board, and it really sucks. I had that Yellowcard sig (the same one I had on here a while ago) and I made some post, and 2 guys started attacking me cuz I like Yellowcard! The thread wasn't even about music either! Argh, people make me mad. Also I started the same "Musical hatred" thread that I started here, and then this guy gave me all this crap about how emo sucks and that anyone who likes emo shouldn't deserve to live, and that i should drown myself in a bathtub. Then he goes and tells me that it's his opinion that I suck, and that he is allowed to believe whatever he wants. And all this time, the mods do nothing. Gah, mean people suck!

Well this is also inversely a praise towards this board. Good job guys at not making it dumb. Group hug!

~~Leo656~~ · 11-21-2003, 05:31 PM

I'm with Matt, actually...

And yeah, gamefaqs board is nothing but a bunch of morons. I post there as AXLHulkster every now and then in one of the wrestling game boards, and my god are the people there dumb.

Of course, the Lordsofpain.net message boards were a nightmare too. They hated every new person there to the point of trying to make them leave for no reason. One guy that nobody really liked once started a thread saying he had terminal cancer and that he only had like 6 months to live, got everyone all upset and sympathetic, disappeared for like 2 months, then came back and told us the whole thing was a joke and that everyone who believed him was a moron. Nice people.

**GK Punk** · 11-21-2003, 06:53 PM

Yeah, LoPForums is one of the worst places on the net. The Nirvana Fan Club Forums aren't so hot either...

*Storm Wolf* · 11-21-2003, 08:38 PM

*group hugs* YaY to nicey peoples! *cough*likeme*cough*

SkaterMike · 11-21-2003, 09:08 PM

This is the best message board on the net, nicest group of people I've met so far.

Mondo J. Gecko · 11-21-2003, 09:19 PM

Yeah

this is definatley one of the best boards out there people are generally quite nice.... you can actually talk about stuff with put being put down seven times before you get a chance to reply

Group Hug

**DarthRaphael** · 11-21-2003, 10:34 PM

A forum is generally made up of 2 things:

1) The people who post on it.

2) The mods who wach it.

You need a core group of good people. People who post daily. People who make constructive comments.

You need mods that enforce the rules in a polite, consistent, and fair manner. They need to be good examples.

A really bad form like you have described fails miserably at points one and two.
