LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2003 I don't think you could call Blurricane a gimmick poster really. I posted just as normally as I do now under that name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kid Kablam Report post Posted May 29, 2003 Well I think some of the punishments may be a bit swift, but given the latest slew of gimmick posters, I can't say I blame you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Edwin MacPhisto Report post Posted May 29, 2003 The rules are pretty good. Nothing everybody here didn't really already know. The trolling rule is very subjective, but considering our mods' collective history of rule enforcement, I expect moderation (zing!) One thing that might merit a change or a note or something: not many people have huge sigs, but a lot of people use different desktop resolutions. There's a big difference between a sig that fills half a page on 800 by 600, and one that fills half a page on 1600 by 1200. It'll vary from user to user...though I don't really expect Dr. Tom to bust out the face-rape uzi because of a slightly chunky picture of Akira Taue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DawnBTVS Report post Posted May 29, 2003 Erm...nevermind. I know some people have turned sigs off so I feel if the sig size is too big for their desktop they could either go bigger desktop wise or turn them off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Bannable Offense Report post Posted May 29, 2003 In the past few days, it's been almost 10 trolls/idiots who have come here and caused me to reveal the fact that I've been PMSing. Dames Actually, exactly 10 bannings by my count since the Labor Day weekend, Dames. 13 since April 25. I've been an unoffical censor of TSM unregistered names of sorts.

Guest goodhelmet Report post Posted May 31, 2003 i think i missed out on that conversation. also, it wasn't an anti-dr tom thread. it was a thread directed at dr. tom that snowballed into flames between dr tom and myself that i should have kept in-house. i don't ever recall you ever saying anything to me about the dr tom thread... ever.

Adam 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2003 Dames, I just got back from a small hiatus from TSM and I read the new rules. This was something that had to be put in place and I will be sure to follow all of them. Id like to be a mainstay on this board, like Downhome, Choken One, Banky etc. Thanks, and keep up the good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted June 2, 2003 I think Dames should institute a system of communication so we can let each other know when there's lots of gimmick posters on the board. Better still, a system of warning against these gimmick posters. It could have a five-color code, ominous language, the works. That way, measures can be taken against the offensive elements of this internet message board. The posters, not just the mods, must be vigilant, and concious of the possibility of gimmick posters and people who can't use commas. Gentlemen, we must stand together. For only together can we defeat this Axis of Ghey, and make the world a better place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Flying Dutchman Report post Posted June 3, 2003 I'd also like to propose that every poster on the Smart Marks take a drug designed to surpress gimmick posting urges. The drug would be taken at 12 p.m. sharp, daily. Those found not to be taking their doses will be charged with post crimes and will be sentenced to No Holds Barred to be flamed.

Guest goodhelmet Report post Posted June 7, 2003 I have to agree that The Mysterious One is one of the few "gimmicks" that isn't retarded (would i get banned for discriminating against the handicapped?) or disrupts threads. TMO even spells MOST of the words correctly. To be honest, I don't even look at TMO as a gimmick poster, just one of CWM's various user names. Now, that TMBF guy, that is a poor gimmick. Maybe there were some good gimmicks when i wasn't frequenting the board that much, but to this day, the only gimmick poster really worth his weight in humor and creativity is Metal Ed. that's it. all of the others have been void of anything that could be construed as clever or worthwhile contributors.
