Dr. Tom 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 This folder takes a lot of abuse, both on this board and others. We've gotten tired of that. We think we have a good website, and we want to make the forums as good for you the user community as we can. In order to do that, we're going to make some changes to this folder. First, we've appointed three forum moderators: Loss4Words, Goodear, and Canadian Chick. They have full power over all threads and posts in this folder, and are free to edit, pin, close, and delete at their discretion. They're also going to be issuing warnings for bad behavior, and those warnings will be investigated by global mods and admins. Listen to them as would any other staff member, because that rule applies to them, too. Second, we're going to post a set of rules specific to this folder. Everyone who posts in this folder will be responsible for reading them and adhering to them; ignorance will not be an excuse. The forum mods will be enforcing them, and they have the full support of the global mods and admins. Play nice, cooperate with them, and everybody wins. We're trying to drag this folder up by its bootstraps and make it respectable and content-rich. We don't want it to be a joke anymore; you deserve better than that. Thanks for your anticipated cooperation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fökai 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 Is there a way where we could we put this thread up as an "IMPORTANT" thread to see, before entering the forums? (sort of like how we have that thread about ID changes at the top of the page) Maybe it doesn't hold the same bearing and importance as the other thread does, but new TSM'ers usually start off in the WWE folder and branch out from there.

Most of the other folders have few posts in them, so the posts that are there are mainly relevant or at least not filled with so much post whoring that it's a problem. No need, IMO. Uh-Oh. No more arguing with Goodear. I don't think so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 This folder takes a lot of abuse, both on this board and others. We're a regular Anna Mae of the internet. . I wouldn't mind a lil expansion on this seeing as you, Dr. Tom, rarely ever post here. Not that I disagree with the rules made, I just find what prompted it kinda funny.

Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted February 4, 2004 Another rule should be leave anything to do with Puro out of WWE Topics because all it leads to is wuss arguments of "KENTA KOBASHI RULZ!!!111" and "Benoit is greater than all them Japanese dudess~!"

No offense to Tom, but this seemed to come out of nowhere. Who decided this exactly? There must have been something specific to trigger it. I think Rudo, like me, probably feels it would have a lot more effect if Unfuckwithable delivered the message instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 Loss4Words and Goodyear are good people. CanadianChick lives near the west coast/WC timezone... and is ok people, I guess. Good judgement. I would venture to say that is why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Krazy Karter Report post Posted February 4, 2004 This folder takes a lot of abuse, both on this board and others. For what? Although it gets hectic around here, there's still good times had by all. Similar boards don't get half the traffic we do. We're active baby! I don't think watering down the formula will change much.

I don't mean to bite from Chris Rock, but thats like having Christopher Reed judge a dance contest. Yeah, why not have one of the hardcore posting sheep of the WWE folder be a mod, right? Loss is a knowledgable guy and doesn't need to post a lot here to be a credible mod. It's the "more is better" state of mind that has turned the folder into a wasteland.

Highland 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 So, the posters from HD complained about the wwe folder, which is somewhat of an irony.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 I find it disheartening that the braintrusts here decide to spring these new rules on us and don't bother to stay around to effectively answer any questions. Especially after the only follow-up comment was "The folder sucking a lot of dick for so long?". I don't think the WWE Folder is the only thing that needs to shape up around here.

CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 RRR, it's probably the best place to start though. This is the folder that gets the most attention and posts, so might as well make it better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Highland 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 It also gets the most criticism, but most from posters that never actually contribute to this folder. I agree with the SD spoilers rule, but this folder is tame compared to the shit that goes down in HD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 I was referring to the people who made the rules and didn't stick around to field questions concerning them. Pretty inconsiderate, if you ask me; especially after, essentially, insulting this folder and those who post in it. But hey, HD and SNKT think we suck, we have to change accordingly.

Guest FrigidSoul Report post Posted February 4, 2004 Well I for one am glad that instead of focusing on having fun we are now placing our full attention towards getting other boards approval.
