MyMothersMySister Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 Ok.. here's the deal.. The Vice boards have seemed to become a haven for a LOT of spamming and flaming these days and are actually making people stay away from them. This is not acceptable at all. I am here to bring a stop to this and trust me I will get there in the end. I won't hesitate to Warn, Issue Stars or even BAN the more constant and repetetive offenders. All you guys have to do is abide by a few simple guidelines and this place will get a lot better very quickly. 1, BEFORE you post a new topic please make a quick search for the topic you want to speak about. The chances are that someone has already asked it and you will find your desired answer there. 2, On the event of someone posting an already asked question. There should be NO people posting after him calling him a lamer etc... If you do not have anything constructive to add to the topic then do NOT post at all. 3, Any 1 word replies, falming or simply stupid replies will end in a star or maybe a banning for more serious cases. The forums are to have fun and get help or speak about a game that we all share a commmon interest in. So let's just all be civil to one another and everything will be just gravy. Any questions can be directed at me and you know how to use the report to moderator function. Please do so, so that we can clamp down on the people that have made the Vice forums the way they are.

If you do not have anything constructive to add to the topic then do NOT post at all. If you answer him/her (with an answer/info to the question), do you get a warning? And please realise that ppl will make mistakes! Great idea though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenMillard Posted February 1, 2003 Share Posted February 1, 2003 I see there's a LOT of pinned topics with common knowledge in. I am gonna read through them all so I know the kinda stuff that doesn't need new topics being made. Probably a good idea for any moderators that are tentativly veturing into here.

Diablo_Hitman Posted February 2, 2003 Share Posted February 2, 2003 Mr. Hard ass Mod man excuse the hell outta me. j/k But really you need you stop the sh*theads posting worthless and already known stuff. Screw stars just ban their ass on the spot. Anyways about flame war, there's isn't anything wrong with a good ol flame war. It's like sloving an agrument just using swears instead of logic. Sometimes flame wars are fun to read, I'm not saying anyone should just start one for no reason but it's funny to see people duke it out with words. Also no offense but this place is a little boring maybe leting people settled their flame wars instead of locking a topic whenever you see a swear, would be bring some excitement, maybe.

spazbitè Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 I have a question about number 1.... why are some of the Pinned topics about the same thing? Shouldn't they get a star for posting the same stuff? (This is not just is the 'Gameplay' section) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashwin Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Shouldn't spazbite get 2 stars for having TWO sigs of which one is too big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HD Rick Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 Calm down you dont own the forums!!! He is a moderator of these forums. And a fine one at that. I'm very ashamed to see an AMF representative respond in this way. In fact, I have received many complaints about you. Go ahead and change your avatar and sig, as your probationary status has been terminated. HD Rick aka Dr.X "Kill her. That's all you have to do." "Kill Mary?" "She's a risk.

The Eye of Sauron Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 Yes, a ray of light that shines into the darkness that is the Vice forums. Calm down you dont own the forums!!! Look at his member title. He doesn't own the forums, but he sure as hell enforces the rules. And he isn't just doing this because he doesn't like how this place is, its a know fact throughout GTAForums that the Vice forums are filled with spamming/flamming n00bs. Yes there are a few good members who help people and don't resort to flames, and then there are some people who need to go and read the TOS again. Anyway, good luck mods/admins. You have one hell of a job cleaning this place up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do not have anything constructive to add to the topic then do NOT post at all. i suppose you could post a link to the already posted topic, and then let them know what the forums rules are on it. but this sticky should be read first anyway. -r2d2 ☆☆☆☆☆ nite nite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
