How To Avoid Our Threads From Being Locked - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Jenya · 03-11-2004, 07:17 PM

Okay, guys!

I'm creating this thread for the sole purpose on how to avoid all these ridiculous and unnecessary fights on these boards from being locked. (maybe this post can be a STICKY?)

Janice told me that it is frustrating to her, because it's difficult to edit every single post. So locking the thread is her best solution. I know where she's coming from. My friend gave me moderating duties, but I gave up after a week. It's too diffucult- I don't want the job to tell you the truth.

So I would like to know how WE can avoid all of these fights. What is so annoying to us.

For starters, I think the constant

® posts should come to an end. The reason I have the "®" beside the

, is because it's EricIdleFan's (sorry Shelby-you started it) Regestered Trademark.

Everybody is now doing this. And It's SO ANNOYING.

Anybody have other suggestions to avoid our threads from being locked?

That isn't going to solve anything. I know many of you think she is annoying, but she isn't breaking any rules.

I know she's been insulting people too...but...I don't know what to say about that one.

James"Thunder"Early · 03-11-2004, 07:27 PM

Don't argue, don't harass other members and don't start threads that are useless. EricIdleFan's post don't bother me. Don't ban her she is a good member. some don't like her because she speaks her mind. Miss Vicki is right she is not breaking any rules.

Len Nicademo · 03-11-2004, 07:31 PM

Just simply "ignore"

She's spamming, harrassing people for no reason and insulting people because of their ethnic backgrounds. then she apologizes and does the same goddamn thing over again. All shes doing is starting fights.

" is she only thing thats on her mind then may she fall off a cliff and leave us alone.

OK.

At least I didn't just have the post with that in it.

Exactly. And some people are probably going to say, "We call her names and insult her." Well she is asking for it! She is absolutely capable of posting on topic, she just doesn't care. Now, if she honestly misunderstands a thread (like the oxymoron one), then there is nothing that can be done to stop that. But when someone informs her she has it wrong, she goes mad! It's obvious most of her "mistakes" are just out of pure laziness and disregard for others.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And it's not that easy to ignore. I shouldn't have to put someone on an ignore list. They should have to follow the rules, and they should have to contribute to the topic correctly.

Brian Damage · 03-11-2004, 08:02 PM

Did it ever occur to anyone that there might(I emphasize might) be something wrong with her. If that is the case, give her some slack. She might not see things as clearly as everyone else.

I'm sorry, but the last 2 lines of your post just made me fall onto the floor laughing.

This thread is a waste of space. It is not your job to prosucute EricIdleFan.

Yes, that occurred to me. I am cutting her slack by saying nothing can be done about her misunderstanding some topics (my example was the oxymoron thread). When she genuinely doesn't understand something that's okay. I see her being quite capable other times with threads however. I really think she could do it far more often.
