Title: READ CAREFULLY: Suggestion to Forum Members
Post by: azsarge on October 19, 2007, 12:03:53 PM
Dear fellow AA forum members,

I'd like to share with you some of my more recent concerns.  In the near past, there have been certain new forum members that are underage for our hobby, yet still have brought it upon themselves to take every opportunity to pollute our fine, informative forum with every simple thought that crosses their mind.

I assure you, us Moderators will take every opportunity to completely delete every pointless, useless post, necropost, and attempt to gain forum rank by unestablished members.

To those who think it's a good idea to pollute our forums, take this into consideration:
At some point, if you're worth a damn, you will have to show your face at an Official AA game, and you WILL be held accountable for everything you say on these forums.  

You are not merely hiding behind a computer screen!  A great majority of the posters on this forum are active airsoft players in Arizona, and hold themselves and their forum contributions to a higher standard.

Next time you want to start a new thread, or even reply to one, ask yourself "does this really matter, and is it worth typing?"

This is not a chatroom that exists to entertain your every desire to see your own words in script.  This is a place to share information, ask legitimate questions, and discuss every aspect of our hobby.

So, before the next time you take a shit on your keyboard and click the "Submit" button, take this into consideration.

If not, you won't last long, and will not be welcome on our forums in the future.


To all the productive members of our forum, do not entertain these types by replying to a necropost.  Moderators have an easier time deleting one post, than cleaning up an entire thread.

Thank you, and enjoy the forum!

I've always wondered who'd win in a grappling match, you or Christian  :P

One other option that might make it easier on you mods would be to have a forum abuse report thread ala ASR.  That seems to be pretty effective on there, then again maybe we don't have the volume here to make it necessary.

Christian, you'd make a great (Airsoft) Addict when you make it home.

Be safe out there.

I think that the sooner we treat this forum as a valuable resource, and put a little more thought into it's contributions, the better off we'll be for it.

No it wasn't, you're not the first noob to have ever been on this board. But it would be beneficial for noobs to lurk first to see how they should behave while on this board.

Im old enough to know that that is really childish but it is good that you are telling the 13 and 14 year olds how it goes down.

If you have nothing to contribute, please don't post, especially to an old topic such as this. ;)

I have been on many many forums since i first began using the internet, and i couldnt agree more on people who keep making dumb pointless topics, but hey, dont we all do it at some point? But yes I agree, constantly stupid topics are not exactly good.. they get the community ticked off.

...So does resurrecting a four month old topic just to say you agree with it without adding anything substantial to the discussion... :roll:

I am a noob to this forum and I am also underage, but I don't think I've done any of these things. If I do, by all means, demote me.

You can't be demoted any lower  ;)
