There's been a lot of talk from RM18 (just an example)on "how to improve the forums" and generally a lot of people are complaining of how this forum sucks, etc. Well, I'll be honest with you.

This forum rules!!!!!

So what if newbies spam a lot in here? A good forum is obviously gonna have a lot of people come to post, even newbies! I like it here, so I don't see what all the fuss is about.

And if you don't like it here, then fine! Don't come here!

That's all I have to say, I think.

P.S I'm over my "I suck" period, I don't know what got into me :S or S:, or whatever it is.

P.S.S To annoy Stryke, I'd like to advertise the fact that I'm writing a spoof right now including all the Notables but Sheepy, Wookie, Meka, and fantasymeister. Not many other characters I'm afraid.

Yeah, it's like they have 'special priorities' or something. Newbies get picked on because sometimes they spam. Notables do it too, but because they are a notable, people accept it.

Good point. The forum is there for a reason, so why not use it?

I have to agree on the highest possible terms with this. The reason that some people complain that there are no good post about games is that they only bother to read the posts of people that they know. Not the newbies that come here and some do some really good pieces.
I enjoy coming to this forum, all the people that complain about it by post their complaints muck it up even more.
If they want to complain do it the customer service froum.

I thought we had this sorted out yesterday??? Oh well, obviously not. I think it would be best if we drop it.

Russ, does your brother know about his GAD yet? Also, can you read and reply to my post in this forum? Thanks.

My recent talk has just been a response to the general dissention. Rather than constantly read about it, I was just trying do do something about it, but obviously I haven't succeded. As many people didn't support my idea, then I take that as a signal that you are all happy with the forums. In which case, there should be no more comlaining. Ok?

I like the way the forum is already. We were all newbies before, so what is the big deal about them. The are new (hence the newbie classifiactio name) to these forums, and everyone takes time to adjust to places. Take Hercules! for example. He used to spam when he was a newbie, but now he is a regular, he has changed. We are only human (apart from a few exceptions) so give them a break.
