I wont be much on the Abandonia forum in the next few days.

I've just had enogh of the crap-throwing, stupid people who don't know how to debate, some more crap-throwing and immature people.
I just don't like this place anymore, it's not the same as it used to be.

You might find me on AR, and I'm always on msn ;)

Yeh, I agree with you there. I don't like the spamming flamers either. Well, if Puffin leaves, I leave, and I don't come back til the spamming flamers are gone and kicked in their behinds. I'll watch the place from guest services til they are. :bye:

So, the logic here is that the best way to make the board better is to stop contributing anything sensible to it?

Reminds me a lot of the HOTU forums some 3-4 years back. ;)

What's the point in saying something sensible when it just gets buried under 3-4 pages of spam, or private flamefests, so that most people don't even bother to read it?

If you can't connect with people in a community through meaningful discussion because what you say is mostly ignored due to the fact that it's not filled with enough trauma & drama to catch people's attention, then you're not really part of that community anyway.

Since the "teeny boppers" invaded this site I've preferred AR. I'm sure things will get better here in time though.

you're making me a sad man :cry:

If all you decide to ABANDON the forum, it is like giving the forum to the flamers :ranting:

Please resist! Stay!

What's going on? :blink:

Hmm, a decent excuse to close every thread I dont like!

#9,
what have you done? :blink:

Well once a forum is getting bigger things like this are bound to happen... More people comming to the site - more people posting crap (that's normal).
Especially because new people weren't a part of our little spaming and flaming posts (not that there were that many) of the past.

Well once you make a good thing everybody wants it and that kindda spoils the good thing.
I suggest people don't leave, but just wait it out a bit.
And maybe we could get some new rules (I've seen this on quite a few boards that after you register you can't post for two weeks or a month - that usually discourages the newby spammers - just a thought).
