Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

Poor n00bs, they had this one coming a long while back. mini/no

But this has to have been done. People are posting in film threads saying that they haven't seen the actual film yet. And if I have been contributing to this stuff, I apologize. mini/smile

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

now people need to just do what this says and we'll all be good mini/smile

I'm really hoping this doesn't just fade away and everyone forgets about it. It should be stickied.

This is a great thread. I am sorry for overreacting once and asking for a member to be kicked. I'll make sure I won't do this in the future.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

Well, hopefully, we can work together to control things around here. I certainly think we can all manage to hate each other less, don't you? I look forward to the changes, and as stated before, this is a much needed thread! mini/smile

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

Re-quoting of other peoples' posts to say you feel the same is one of the sort of annoying/spammy things I'm talking about.  It's about as mindless and worthless as a post can get.

It's happened three times in this thread already.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

Ah, irony.
Oh, and good on you Smeagol for making this thread.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

mini/sweat  Oh, sorry. I'll edit my post.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

We ought to have a mod (or admin) sticky this, for future reference.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

I think I missed a lot when I was gone. Why was TDogg banned? And sorry if I stoked the fire a bit when I was arguing with TDogg a few weeks ago.

You were gone? mini/tongue

I do not care about your opinion, unless it has to do with it needing more ponies.

I know, I've almost never been off for more than one or two days max. mini/tongue

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

I haven't been keeping up with BiM drama recently... But this thread would have fixed a lot for me back around chrismas in 2008. It's nice to see a thread like this.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

Wow, I never noticed some of the things you've said, Smeagol. I'll try to obey these rules. Thanks for posting this thread. mini/yes

I just have one thing to bring up. New members that do any of these things should be given one warning, and a link to this thread. It is very likely that they will not view every thread when they join.

You can do anything, just have fun while doing it.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

Ok Smeagol, I will obey the new rules as much as I can and try not to get into arguments in the forum and chat.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

Finally some one bought this up, I recently joined the chat and found 2 people making fun of someone else because he did not use 15 FPS which was just stupid. Hopefully people will read this thread and stop.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

THANK YOU SMEAGOL!!!

I'd been edging away from BiM, and brickfilming in general because or all the immaturity of younger(ish) members, but with you pointing all this out, and (hopefully) making people follow the rules, BiM should be a much more enjoyable place.

Don't be fooled, my avatar is a facade of conformity.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

I'll be honest when I say that one of the main reasons I don't post as much on this site as the pre-TAAB Brickfilms is because it always felt like a lot of the younger users lack(ed) etiquette here.

Re: Community infighting, immaturity, etc.

This thread was sort of a first step as far as things we want to try in order to help get this site back on track.  Glad people are receptive to it, but unfortunately I don't think a little rant and reminder to follow the rules is going to fix everything overnight.
