The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only.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.
If you read a post with a few words or letters attempting to make up words. DON'T REPLY!
If you reply you just encourage it, even if it is with the usual "This sucks"
Just let their topics drop and hopefully they will realise the standards of most on these forums is a little higher than thouse who can write their own name without drooling all over the page.
It might be worth pointing out to them what posts people like and why the one line of crap they write will have people judge them straight away.
Lets try get this place back to some kind of normality with some decent stuff to read.
Please?

Er...no. I think that if you look closely enough, it was indeed a JAT.

And you are the ignoramus.

Check the winners list. Look at what others win for and try come up with something original worth reading.
Something that is a good read, long enough to make sense, be funny or to get all the points across.
With a bit of luck, good writing you might win something.

ok, but i posted in there befor i read this, but i wont do any more posts...
You can usually tell from the suject heading that it's a junk post, I just don't bother reading them anymore. Possibly rajpal keeps up with the bizzare posting because he enjoys the reaction.
My thoughts exactly - we get one silly post from a JAT followed by ten regulars lynching him in some kind of mildly pathetic pack attack (and creating far more pointless volume that the original post). It’s easy to be part of the crowd, hard to be the guy who isn't sure how the place works. We may have scared off people just browsing who could have become valued posters because they see how newbies get slaughtered for the most minor thing.
