I think we have too many lurkers...

You heard me right. Just look at the newest member to register: LMAO. Either this person just has a sense of humor or is looking to cause trouble. There was also "i_hate_karpo"...I can't even begin to imagine who that would be.

So this is a message to any lurkers and potential troublemakers: don't even bother to cause mischief on here because your IP will be traced faster you can say "cowabunga". And if some of you are from where I'm thinking, you might as well just go home and get a life, because this is a completely different world and community.

Thank you. We may all now get back to our normal forum postings.

He's just looking out for the forum. Admirable. But lurkers are not the problem. It's the people posting offensive messages that are the problem. Also, lurkers tend to, well, lurk on a board for awhile to get a feel for the place. Don't judge a person by their screen name. Prejudices like that may turn away many more good members than bad posters. They haven't done anything wrong yet.

Excuse me, since when did you have to be a brat? It's no wonder you've got a warning! You open your cake hole when there's no need to.

Did I not say that EITHER that person was going to cause trouble OR just had a harmless sense of humor? I thought so...sorry for the ambiguity.

But you're right, the real problem is not the lurkers...it's those who don't know how to keep their attitude problem bottled up (not saying any names).

A general note: Rude comments aren't appreciated, and responding with rudeness will only get you in trouble as well.

I know no one was pointing fingers, but we don't want to come off as a suspicious bunch, because we aren't. And we aren't in the business of threatening those who cross into our forum.

Okay everybody chill!!!!
We just got out of that mess of arguments so Tokka and Rez don't start it up again please.
Anyways, lukers can lurk as much as they want, it is just the problem with people with really short fuses

I'd just like to point out in general that I only got the warning because I accidentally told a mod in an open forum in RPG about the problem someone and I were having, and because of that....Krang is taking off the warning sometime soon...

I don't think you can get a warning by disagreeing with someone on this site...otherwise none of us would be here and/or I would quit....

[Edit: Please don't mention any names in regards to your warning. --Krang]

Yeah the zero posters are not a problem, but it make it really hard to tell how many members we really have. I think around 30.
