Oh my

i actually agree with pink but i also have to say the question is thread is alittle fun you get some amusing sentences made. its fun to have alittle comedy. i dont quite understand the cookie or brownie thread but i dont mind them as long as people are having fun. if i didnt like them i just wouldnt read the..

and i completely agree with hey we need a hero! or another forum fight that's always fun

Let me preface my plea noting that I am not against the freedom of speech, but would prefer to see it used intelligently and for merit.

I have noticed a downward spiral in the intelligence level in posts and in the creation of threads. These threads such as "cookies", "brownies" and "question". I worry that this is what the forum has developed into, I hope my fears will not remain merited.

I also have begun to notice the necromancy of deceased threads. My upbringing has instilled in me the thought that we should think fondly of the passed, know that we will see them again someday if we live a good life but that we should let them rest until that day comes, lets let these threads rest in peace.

Currently there are two groups which i shall call the fools led in particular by "Aggressive" and the others who post in the cookie/brownie thread who are complete and utter fools and the assess by Sharpe and perhaps as equally Zoso/whatever he decides to call himself these days. I worry that these two groups have made it so unpleasant for the commoner to speak they have decided to simply not do so.

So I write this plea in order to ask that these two groups begin to use a modicum of intelligence and pleasantry. It has become simply unpleasant looking at the forum these days, I hope the next time I look it is not overwhelmed by this jack assery and tom foolery.

What those three threads are, is "spam threads" most forums have them.
When I say spam, I don't mean their useless, I mean there cluttery(now a word).
So although they are entertaining, and their a sign that the community isn't just the same old players, they also clutter up the front page.
My personal suggestion would be to have a new sub-forum (spam/off-topic) these posts would not appear on the front page, OR, even better it could be another option in your settings.
But if Fizzer was to do something like that, do a forum overhaul while your at it, please?

Somethings on my list(many or all are on uservoice)
Off-topic sub-forum (default unlisted on front page)

Events sub-forum (things like Warlympics, clan battles, etc( default listed(so people can find out about them if there new)))

Mods?
I understand that is risky, your giving power to someone other then yourself, which means it may or may not follow your vision.
You also I assume browse to keep an eye on your subjects, to see what people are thinking.
But if there was more off-topicy stuff, mods could be useful.
Anyways

But till there are changes made to the forums, threads like these I think should continue, just don't read them.

I in the end the thourom has no destictive purpose, its here for whatever you want. Remeber warlight is growing, so not all users will have the dilect required to post massive paragraphs on contriversle topics.

i still think the forum needs to be split up much more

its crying out for it

i suggested it before here http://warlight.net/Forum/Thread.aspx?ThreadID=3677

not that i participated any any of the threads mentioned but i think all forums should have threads like this as they can be fun. they just need to be in the right place

Stickys might be nice as well. And I do agree that the forum topics could be so much better than they have been recently. :/

They're for pure entertainment...
The 'so the question is' thread is pretty funny, war light may be a site for smart gamers but that doesn't mean smart gamers can't have some fun.

It is though, kinda annoying that the Dashboard it filled with pointless spam threads. I'm not sure that we really need whole 3 threads dedicated to counting various objects.

I think I'll have to write up some JS script that will kill these "threads" from forum view.

The only threads I don't like were the cookies and brownies threads, but "so the quetion is" was a bit fun. I think people on warlight just like to fool around a bit sometimes, which is why these threads got so popular.

This is inevitable to ANY forum. Face the hard truth and jump on the bandwagon. Do you really think a forum would last years with "intelligent" threads? The community continues to grow, as Warlight becomes more known. As it grows, the audience widens from serious teens and young adults to serious teens and young adults AND casual gamers + internet trolls, such as illiterate kids who somehow know how to use a computer. You simply can't stay exclusive to serious threads forever. So have fun! You know you want to...

Conservatism? REVOLUTION!

Yeah jumping on the bandwagon is really revolutionary right? ...

Anyway as someone of you seem not to have understood about my first post is that I only said that 3 posts are annoying but one post is totally acceptable...

So if you want to embrass yourself acting like a child on one post it is ok for me.

I just asked not to invade the community...

@Dr.hyde where you invited to the fools and asses game by zoso and it is so obvious your a multiaccount.

Ya obviously he is a duplicate of Dr. Jekel

Please ban these spamers, forum is in the destruction

I dont get why you guys have a problem with the cookies thread and stuff, i think they are really stupid too but i just chose not to read them.
