The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
1. When a person posts a topic and it starts falling down the list the person who posted the topic always replies to his own topic to get it back to the top again! Cheating little.....
2. When a well known regular or noteable creates a topic that is absolute poo, people joke and laugh about it and make out its really good and they usually get over 50 replies (hence the baseball cap topic I just read - no offence Grix)
3. When a newbie posts a topic of absolute irrelevance they get slaughtered by everyone and there is usually about 10 replies (all insults directed at the poster)
4. Everyone kisses Tony's backside! (Tony you're the best!)
5. All Gameaday prizes are awarded to topics that are about 10'000 words!
6. If you ask a question in someone elses topic, it doesnt get answered, if you create a topic asking your question, it always gets answered.
7. Everyone uses the FOG chat and no one uses the X-BOX or customer services. The PC, Internet one has risen due to the addition of Web Design... and Yes, it was me who suggested that! Now you can kiss my backside! :-P
8. There are people on here for about 18 hours a day (usually begins at about 7am and ends about 3am)
9. and no one reads all your post if it is really long so they never get to the end! So if you have read this far, I congratulate you!

Now....will number 3 occur?......
Not enough words for 5.......
Got along way until number 2.......
If no one replies in 30 minutes I may choose to go for number 1.........
Number 8 means someone should eventually read this topic.....
Number 4 means I have to go and do a bit of kissing!
Number 9?

This is true. I need to do it all the time... people miss it first time round so you POP it adding to your post this then usually gets some kind of responce although in many cases you get 5-7 replies and thats that.

NOPE YOU COULD NOT BE MORE WRONG ABOUT ME: In all the time I have been on here my posts get blanked and only a few respond, this is all the time. I have only ever had over 60 replies a few times usually for some mince post that a discussion starts off in.
3. When a newbie posts a topic of absolute irrelevance they get slaughtered by everyone and there is usually about 10 replies (all insults directed at the poster)
This is true... usually however the spelling and grammar are miserable and is usually old news or biast comments.
4. Everyone kisses Tony's backside! (Tony you're the best!)
I don't... Tony is a big smelly cheesy nitrogen pie :D
5. All Gameaday prizes are awarded to topics that are about 10'000 words!
Emm no I would not say that unless it is a review... totally wrong there.
6. If you ask a question in someone elses topic, it doesnt get answered, if you create a topic asking your question, it always gets answered.
Yes true once more... people don't read everything so to get attention you do this. Hey it is a mess and not really needed but what can you do?
7. Everyone uses the FOG chat and no one uses the X-BOX or customer services. The PC, Internet one has risen due to the addition of Web Design... and Yes, it was me who suggested that! Now you can kiss my backside! :-P
Well mainly because everyone hates the X-Box and there are hardly any problems at SR :D
8. There are people on here for about 18 hours a day (usually begins at about 7am and ends about 3am)
One person or varitey... this would be of its popularity and addiction (NOTE: we being on at about 12PM... 3PM...6PM and now at 12PM :D)
9. and no one reads all your post if it is really long so they never get to the end! So if you have read this far, I congratulate you!

Your point No 1.
If you want to put your topic on the top then you simply write:
POP!
Unless you're Ant in which case it is:
"ONCE YOU POP YOU CAN'T STOP {:) CLASSIQUE!!!"
:-D

People such as Grix don't get slaughtered for writing stupid (although normally amusing) topics, as they've written loads of good stuff before!
If newbies come along and their first topic is about baseball caps, then it's not exactly a good start, is it??
But quite a few people have already proved that they deserve respect on these forums-and are entitle to a little bit of fun.

what really annoys me is those topics in FOG (chat or Prime), not about the Future of gaming. Chat does not mean idle chit chat... it means chatting about the future of gaming.
So, anyone see Space?
NiGHTS!
