Guest Sly as hell Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 Why have both the threads i created earlier today been closed without any explaination? I find it unfair that you close my threads and not anyone elses. I thought my threads were DBZ related and would have been interesting, but now i return to only find out that both of my threads have been closed without you allowing anyone apart from maybe one or two reply to them. Please answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 Well, I can say for sure that the "best villian" thread is against the rules. (which you might do well to read in all forums) As for the create a villian one, I dont really know if I would allow a thread like that. Usually the reason behind closing such a thread is something to the likes of "ends up being a spam fest." I will say, on a side note, that this thread would have been better if you had just left it off the boards and sent a private message with the same content to a mod. That means this thread will be closed also. My best advice to you would be watch your post quality. read the rules of each forum or just one or two so you get the drift. And most of all, dont take closings personally. I have had threads closed and it does suck, yes, but there is always a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manic Webb Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 I do find it a bit strange that one of the mods would close your "best villain" thread without telling you, seeing as you're so new. Anyway, it's against the rules to start threads that go "who is your favorite" or "which is better." Those topics don't really go anywhere. Read the Rules page (it's linked on the banner on the top of every page) for details. It'll keep you out of trouble. And your "create a villain" thread [i]really[/i] wasn't going to go anywhere in this part of the board. Take PiroMunkie's advice about it being an RPG. Go to the Adventures Arena and glance over some other members' threads and read the rules to learn how the Adventures Arena works. You could turn your "create a villain" idea into an all-out adventure with other members of the board. And like Gokents said, next time you have a problem with what a moderator does, send them a PM. Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiroMunkie Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 [color=indigo][size=1]Lol, yes, FYI: this thread [i]will[/i] be closed as well, but, like gokents said, do not take them personally. It is not because it was [i]you[/i] that posted them, it would have been done if anyone else had posted them. Your "Create A Villain" thread had no real point except to create random villains, and I could see senseless follow-up posts before it even started. Given, not [i]everyone[/i] is that way, and will post such spam, but chances are the "wiser" (for lack of better word) members would probably refrain from posting in it, because it holds no real purpose or idea. So that would make the thread completely null. As for your "best villain" thread, we do not usually allow "favorite" topics of any sort. I usually like to give some of them a chance, because surely they cannot [i]all[/i] end up bad with one word posts, or just senseless posts. So I usually wait until one or two people post in them, and decide whether or not to close it from there. That is just me. In your thread, the next person's post was far from readable. I could not make sense of pretty much anything. It started with a bad reply, so it was closed. It had nothing to do with you in specific. Also, like gokents said, if you have little qualms like this, it is best sent to one of the moderators of that forum through Private Messages instead of posting an irrelevant topic in the forum. I apologize if this has angered you any, it was surely not my intent. I do not even know you all to well. I hope you understand, and that there are no hard feelings or anything. Best of Luck To You, -PiroMunkie PS - I would also like to remind all members to try and refrain from "playing mod". I understand you were not necessarily yelling at the person, but if a post or topic comes along that needs a moderator's attention you can use the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of everyone's post. A moderator will get to it as soon as possible. Until then, just leave it be. Thank you.[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
