What about grammar?
I mean, I totally understand about people from non-english speaking countries, but some people in the U.S. have no clue what a period is. I don't know how many posts i've seen that was just one long sentence..
Is there any way to implement a spell check for the forums?

Nah, that really is censorship. While admins can ask for ppl to edit their posts if its unreadable, no-one really gives a damn how it looks as long as ppl get the point.Papa Smurf 314 wrote:

I understand, but i hate having to strain my eyes trying to understand what a person is saying..
Just ask for them to rewrite it cause you don't get what they're saying and everytime they will willingly do it + say sorry.Papa Smurf 314 wrote:

Yeah, welcome to the internet. Nothing much we can do except constantly badger people who can't type...there was this one guy who would just put spaces between his comments like this because it was "easier" than just typing a period...Papa Smurf 314 wrote:

he wouldn't listen to all of us telling him that what he was doing was annoying, so chuy got right up and punched him in the face. (Basically telling him to "start caring [about internet and writing grammar], or stop posting")
Fine, I'll rewrite it again
Version 0.3
1. Racism and sexism is to be reported IMMEDIATELY.
2. Flaming should be restricted. As one member said very nicely in their signature: Think, Write, Think again, Post. Just try to keep it to a minimum.
3. Spam is to be reported. Random comments have no place here
4. Swearing is OK in moderate amounts.
5. Provocative posts/topics that clearly are designed to instigate flaming should get the boot.
6. If someone post(s)' are consistently unreadable, request that the poster rewrite the post(s). Should he refuse, report the post(s).

Sorry Spark,
Although I can completely follow you and would like nothing more than a few threads to be cleaned and bunch of posts wiped... I think you're on the right track. But just not quite there yet.
Your rules should be some kind of etiquette; not rules of action with immediate follow up by the nazi-police. If you know what I mean.
Cheers,
R.

Wow.. that post just makes me laugh, because you said it was a grown up world, when you are definitley a pre-pubescent teenager.TrollmeaT wrote:

If it was a grown-up world (which i think you mean mature), you wouldn't have to be so harsh. stfu and don't read the posts? Who the fuck are you to tell him which posts he can and cannot read? He was just stating that some have gotten out of hand with the racism and country bashing.
Version 0.3
1. Racism and sexism is to be reported IMMEDIATELY.
Touchy subject, as much as I dislike racism and sexism I think it still be allowed, especially if they are the topic for a debate.
2. Flaming should be restricted. As one member said very nicely in their signature: Think, Write, Think again, Post. Just try to keep it to a minimum.
Insults are thrown around in serious discussions and debates, the opinions of people like this are generally ignored. I'm sure people can look after themselves and ignore this.
3. Spam is to be reported. Random comments have no place here
Yep, spam is annoying and stupid comments "Enemy boat spotted" just don't add a thing. But like the idiots who flame should be ignored.
4. Swearing is OK in moderate amounts.
No, that's pathetic censorship. If a guy wants to swear he should be able to. If you dislike the fact he swears, ignore his view, it's that simple.
5. Provocative posts/topics that clearly are designed to instigate flaming should get the boot.
Mods deal with this anyway and are quite capable of continuing removing such things. But you really wouldn't enter into an argument titled "I HATE TEH US" Or "I HATE NIGGERS" anyway, unless you intended the flame the person for being a retard, but then you'd be breaking one of the other rules you want in place.
6. If someone post(s)' are consistently unreadable, request that the poster rewrite the post(s). Should he refuse, report the post(s).
I agree about asking them to rewrite it but if they are unable to or simply don't want to, then that persons view is worthless to the discussion. It would be like trying to have a discussion with someone who doesn't speak English and cannot understand a word you're saying.
We're meant to be adults here, we should all be able to take critism and hatred no matter how hateful it may seem. You simply ignore the stupid comments and continue your debate, otherwise one idiot could bring down the entire discussion and that would be pretty pathetic...

i agree. Especially no more anti-Christian threads.. It saddens me to see how many there are..
I'd like to see less flaming and predjudice against other forum users. But then that's about 3/4 of the posts gone.
A bit of necessary swearing is OK, but it's usually too much too often like a chav with tourettes.
