    I don't have too much of a problem with staff spamming up closed threads but I agree with Raist on this one. Let the members have their fun spam also. Fair is fair.

    They type of post in closed threads I am talking about is the ones where staff comes in that say their personal thoughts on the situation. That pisses me off because I can't come in and say what I want to because appearantly the discussion is back open on a one sided basis. If you have to say something that is that important then make an announcement. If it is something directed towards the members in the thread you should send a PM.

    Luckily for you, ed, I never have anything important to say so I don't do that.

    There are, what Murder said something like 900 active members? There are 15 people on staff.
    And before people made a big fuss over it, the annoucement said not to make idiotic posts, which I guess means you're allowed to make non-idiotic posts! Now shutup. They make the site work, keep it fun, and stop stupid people from running amok, they should be allowed to "break" some rules, that wouldn't even be in place if there were only 15 people here, since they're the only 15 that can. Even if anyone could find an example where people got bitched out for being witty in an about to be closed thread.

    And that is why Kane should be an admin.

    I didn't say anyone was at all. I merely stated that regular member should be allowed to spam in about-to-be-closed threads, BoB stated that they are, as long as they don't mod-whore, and I said great: issue settled! G'job reading through to the end.

    To quote you: now shutup.

    Around 900 members have posted here in the last month, but to the credit to the people who have posted in this thread, most of those members only post in the gaming boards, where the stuff discussed in Feedback has little or no impact.

    According to previous posts by members in this thread, everytime you post we crap on you or something. I'm not sure how I'm meant to deal with this post!

    <3 Kane for that. He said what I was going to say about the "don't make non-idiotic posts."

    Raist, you need to check your post, you never said "great: issue settled!" or any other such positive thing. I thought you were still arguing too. xD Unless you give positive thumbs-up style statements then it's difficult to tell.

    I'll agree with that.
    How much more "thumbs-up" can I get?
