*tacklehugs JF* Finally someone who feels the same way as I!! I know that they are trying to get rid of all the inappropriate things that people have posted and the clutter, but this is quite ridiculous. The mods are promoting "posts should be quality not quantity" and I heartily agree with that, because that's what a forum is about. I was happy right where I was in post counts...


Yay! Larael! I'm glad someone feels like me. There I was working to 2,400 posts and now today?...I've become slightly depressed over this, and I've just posted at the thread I made about it, and the Mods will probably try and soothe me but it's not right. They said they went over the requests board. I mean for gosh sakes, if I've made a banner for somebody and they say they love it, I can't ignore them can I and not say *your welcome*. What do the Mods want me to do? Wait many days until I make my next banner and then reply? :annoyed:

I'm not here for the post counts either, but it get's very frustrating when you've been here for so long and you've worked so hard to get up to where you are by making good posts just to have them stripped away.

I have 4000+ posts not because I post one or two word posts everyday, but because I've been here long enough to accumulate this many good posts.

I'm sure I'll calm down sooner or later once this is all over, but I just need some time to blow off all this steam.

yep. after the virus dome thing, its really for the best. lets not get mad and leave like people did in the great members VS mods war of '06.

EDIT: lets talk about something lighter, i was thinking we needed club titles like the nazgul club....

It's still unfair though. I've been having lots of lengthy discussions lately and I feel very let down by this whole thing. Whoever said the whole *off topicness* was getting out of hand was right.

members vs. mods war? When was that? That had to be recent...

I was probably a part of it and didn't even realise it.

Exactly! How am I supposed to thank someone without violating these rules? How am I supposed to do anything? *is very frustrated* I know people are probably saying that this is a stupid thing to get worked up about, but if you've been here for over a year, like I have, you would definitely not appreciate this.

I'm really mad now girls. I can't believe the Mods are doing this! It's stupid, really stupid. I'm very uspet about this post count thing, there's going to be a lot of people leaving because of this and unlike the Misc randomness trouble, I can fully understand why. Every day the counts are going to go down. I was pleased with my count, pleased with my effort to try and branch out into other boards and get to know people better. What a waste.

don't get mad! get MADEA! i understand what your saying, but i've gotten to the "i just don't care anymore" point.


They'er delateing useless posts!!!!!!! but that means like all my posts are going down dramatiaclly, I'm a pointless person, i mean i had no problem with the changeing ranks that was cool, and one word posts i could understand. BUT POINTLESS POSTS. i really don't want to leave this forum i love it but if that thing is going to happen i'm going to have thoughts. I mean thats just unfair, next thing thier going to dleate posts that go against them, this is like a police state, i thought the users were the ones who voted on this, i haven't seen an thred asking about this sort of thing. I'v supported the mods in all things once i'd worked out that i was in the wrong which didn't take to long but this is just unfair.

Ah yes... I remember that.

Right... *takes deep breath* [By the way JF, if you'd like to continue this conversation feel free to PM me]

Are we thinking of code names or what Shea?

Yes, but as members shouldn't we be aloud to state how we feel about something as long as we're not being disrespectful or rude towards other people or their opinions.

So far we've simply been stating how we feel about this current situation.

*sigh* I don't know how this can be resolved without many people leaving. Larael it's not a stupid thing to get worked up about - your a respected member, you've been here for ages and you post in volumes so why hark back to your original posts when perhaps you did post one-word things? If this is all to do with space then the Misc Random section should be deleted, that has thousands of *pointless posts* <<<<I don't want that either but that's my retaliation.

I'm sorry for talking about this here, but it's one of the places I feel safe - knowing I can discuss it with other like minded people.

EDIT: Larael I'll be only to happy to talk to you via PM if this is getting to people.

EDIT: Lovely code name Shea, as I said before! *thinks* Not really sure who I could be... obviously I love to rebel as many of you have noticed, so maybe I could be "the rebel gentlewoman."
