The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only.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.
I hate to bring this up again but, like MJswerve said "Newbies need a second chance" some of your attitudes towards certain newbies and in some cases even regualrs, it's just horrific. Like for instants if a newbie posts a topic to try and win GAD you always manage to find something wrong with the topic like spellling mistakes and things like that then you let 'em have it.
Or if someone posted a review in the topics forums because they couldn't find it anywhare in the database you do the same thing. Even spammers have to have a second chance. I admit I was a spammer when I first joined and I regret it, but I was given a second chance by two certain members of this site you could say they were my role models. and I learned that if I posted completely useles topics they would get ingored and if I osted good topics I got some decent replies.
That's the way you need to treat spammers not by being horrible or unfair. If you ingore them they might come up with something decent if they learn the way I did.
Some poeple may even be special needs so how do you think they feel when you are mean to them.
So what I'm saying is stop this attitude you have towards newbies and spammers and give them a second chance.

FM won a little while ago for a post that was about 2 paragraphs long.
The reason why longer posts tend to win is that you need a longer post to cover both sides of the argument, or to get your point of view across clearly.
Shorter posts generally leave too much wide open.

You don't have to prove yourself to anyone, be yourself and accept that some people will like you and some wont, do the things which you think improve you as a person, and to hell with what anyone else thinks unless you respect their opinions...........
(That includes ignoring me quite a lot too.....)

You don't judge people, you accept them for what they are, and then you help them to better themselves, judging people is damn right wrong, and if I had an automatic prodding gun, I'd prod you, maybe I should borrow TBNs........
:D
