New trend? (single, members, quote)

Ace · 02-23-2007, 03:47 PM

Anyone else noticing a pattern of old newcomers, now repeatedly flaming newer members lately?
Or does musicbanter even enforce it's own rules anymore?
I'm remembering why I took a hiatus from this forum.
Seriously, it makes the place about as entertaining as Oprah.
If certain members have nothing better to do than strike others as inferior, they should be reprimended.

Either that, or new mods.

Mods and admins have enough problems on their plates right now, but yeah I sort of agree.

Says the person who's made what? 300 Posts? What old members have come back, Oojay? He's been seeming fine.

People need to start reporting flaming, and repeated flaming. You can't expect us to read every single post and remember which user flamed who last week and that they're doing it against this week. We can't be everywhere.

I havn't notice older members flaming new members either.

Not a new trend, but you're right. You've got to take the good with the bad, it's just an internet forum

The Unfan · 02-23-2007, 03:54 PM

STFU n00b!

Seriously though I've not seen this problem. Point it out to me?

Edit: I ironically have the lowest post count of people in this thread.

LOL. Reporting flaming got me a "warning" on my profile and I got 1 point deducted (from what I have no idea).

there is no damn favoritism shown to senior members. I don't know what the hell you're on about.

So instead of offering constructive criticism, half the mods and half the members flame the new guy in the song writing forum.
Plus, I thought Sonnet joined up around or a little before I did, and now
he/she must feel the need to act the norm.
And I can clearly remember them being picked on a few times in the past.
I'm sure he/she will give me a few sarcastic responses, but oh well. ^_^
