Trolsk Posted March 20, 2005 Author Share Posted March 20, 2005 I agree. No, seriously, what's wrong with stuff like "I just ordered mine?" I can't see. 232753[/snapback] It doesn't add anything to the topic. I don't care if you've just ordered a new cd, get back when you've listened to it and can give some usefull comments. That's not asking for too much is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trolsk Posted March 20, 2005 Author Share Posted March 20, 2005 General: General discussions about Psytrance This is not about psytrance. 232770[/snapback] It's about the general and reviews section of this psy-trance forum. It fits better here than it does in the off-topic section. You may remember that we've had discussions about the pros and cons of forum based reviews and database reviews in the general section of this forum.

Gnome Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 The most useless thing to do is start a thread at the General subforum and say to everyone what to do.Or maybe you wanted to show what you mean with this example? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natkejs Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 excuse me for saying it but this thread is typically Swedish myself I don't see how "useless" posts does any harm, it's basicly conversation, ain't that a good thing? anyways I'm a noob here so I'll obey the rules, just thinking a relaxed atmosphere beats having to look at the rule book before hitting "Add Reply" every time ...

Trolsk, you shouldn't go telling people what to/not to post. we don't need any israfascism around here. i do have some of the same sentiments about certain posters, i'd rather they not respond b\c of the lack of value of their input... but i keep it to myself (or flame them! always an option). -ensign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trolsk Posted March 21, 2005 Author Share Posted March 21, 2005 if you think the topic or post is useless... don't fucking read it. How do you expect me to know if a post is useless if I haven't read it? Trolsk, you shouldn't go telling people what to/not to post. we don't need any israfascism around here. I have only asked people to think twice before posting, that's all, no fascism, just a practical tip that could save us all some time. i do have some of the same sentiments about certain posters, i'd rather they not respond b\c of the lack of value of their input... but i keep it to myself (or flame them! always an option). Yes, that's an option, another option is to start a topic about useless posts and have a constructive discussion and raise the level of the posts further.

Yes, that's an option, another option is to start a topic about useless posts and have a constructive discussion and raise the level of the posts further. 233501[/snapback] here's the thing though. there will be no "constructive" outcome from a topic regarding "useless posts". the people that actually post something worth reading will continue to post shit worth reading (with occasional "useless" posts by your definition), while the people that post shit like "yeah, sweet!" or whatever useless interjection, they will continue to do so, like it or not. the people that GET INVOLVED in this discussion are the ones already making the valuable postings... so it's kind of pointless anyway. i was really just joking about the fascism thing... and i really do agree that I wish that ppl would stop posting crap. anyway, by "ignore" the crappy posts, i mean ignore the crappy posters. kind of like a 3 strikes and you're out policy =) and not like while you are scrolling down over posts, you can't simply just see that some idiot layed down a useless one-liner. i just don't think you'll be able to get those ppl to change their annoying ways, agreement or not. -ensign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
