I'd say,

Ban Doomguy0505, ban signofzeta and get rid of Jallamann. I am tired of all this name calling and shouting at each other.

Even with moderators in place the state of the forum doesn't improve. What's a moderator worth if such escapades can go on uncontrolled. :?

I won't argue with you, because I can see a fragment of a tiny bit of a small point.
However, should I be banned because of your request alone, I'd just register under another name. Easy as 3,14.
I would, however, like a warning from either Bio/Qbasicer or randy before such action is taken, so that I would have a chance to not get blacklisted.

But, if I should be banned for pissing off n00bs with pure facts about their annoying behaviour, I don't see any logic.


(Paradox: Open discussion of a potential ban on me in my very own welcome thread...)

Just stop it, please!

Sure, the n00bs are annoying - but so is your constant bickering. I'm sure I'm not the only one being bothered by it.

Well, I'd say that, whilst we all dislike n00bs, there are some limits of how to go about it.

jallamann is usually at the forefront when it comes to n00bs. Thats actually what comes to mind when a lot of people think jalla. Perhaps if you sort of shared it a bit...

Like if you see a n00b, leave it until it's a real problem. I know that we have many other n00b-bashers here (Sir_Alien vs doomguy0505 is always a bit of fun :D ) so we can sort of share it out. I know I get in there every now and then, but as a community, we should try to defend it a bit. Not become the one arm of the forum law.

All right then, I'll try to moderate myself a bit.

Beg your pardon, Graf, but who are you talking about? Oh, wait, I know, you mean those blokes that have their names under every forum section but Changelogs that we never see.

I'm not too sure what's happened to QBasicer, but Bio appears to be losing his liking for the ZDoom community. I reckon that being a mod would mean you see the worst of it. So they didn't like it and were put off. Then again, I could be talking out of my arse...

OK: I'm sorry for pissing everyone off with my so god damn bad behaviour towards people who really deserve it (and some who don't deserve it that much (sorry)) that it's a bloody disgrace to the entire internet (or, at least, in some's eyes). Sorry, bla bla bla, can this discussion stop here and now? At least start a new thread titled "omg jallamann is sooooo bad I bet he eats babies for breakfast!!!!!" or stuff, so that this thread can serve its purpose and nothing else.

K, actually, I was pointing out the fact that we have moderators seemingly in name only. AFAICT the last bits of cleaning/lockage were done soley by randy. However, if you wish, I'll start a thread with a title like "Where the Fuck did the Moderators Go?"

I'm still here and I still check every reported post that comes my way. The main problem is that locking threads still doesn't solve the problem. Another thread about the same thing happens soon afterward and all the arguing starts back up again. I really wish you guys weren't so thick-headed and would just not do things that are going to get people angry.

You can't even joke about that, a lot of people are stupid enough to actually start a topic like that and that would just cause all sorts of hate and discontent.
And we all already know you are a hot-head idiot so why would we have to discuss it? ;)


I haven't seen hide nor hair of QBasicer for a long time. I sure hope he is alright...

But not closing the threads doesn't help either. I'd say close them and when someone persistently reopens a closed discussion stronger measures should be considered.

The crap factor is still far too high in this forum.

It's getting to the point where even when the crap is of semi-intelligent levels it is totally hated upon.

there should be another new rule, I thought of it earlier.

-Don't post if your really hyper. Unless if you think it is Utterly nessecary.
