People are Incredibly Rude

People need to be ragged on for bad grammar so that this doesn't become a prevalent problem.

Also, welcome to the internet.

Not everyone is your friend. In fact, there exist individuals who take advantage of the anonymity of the internet and go around pissing people off. They are called trolls. They are the scum of the internet, and we do our best to ban trolls.

The thing about trolls is, if you ignore them, they go away. They want attention, because they didn't receive enough parental attention growing up, thus making them semi-retarded. Just ignore them.

lmao That was a very funny way to put that.

Banned for hosting something on rapidshare when there is a website (garrysmod.org) dedicated to hosting that kind of stuff so you don't have to waste time downloading something off of rapidshit. You don't get banned as often as you think, just don't act like an idiot (except in OIFY) and you're fine.

Nobody really cares about grammar unless it's illegible, it's a really silly mistake (usually if it changes the context), the person should know better by then (here's a shout-out to Guido, Squeek, and Firefox 2.0 for getting me out of bad grammar/spelling habits <3), or if the person posting makes a big deal about their own grammar.

If you're referring to us being mean to fido, well then, he's guilty of the 4th on that list.

Complaining about minor typos is silly. Hell even I do it, I just did a few posts ago. And nobody here ever complains about not using the shift key--hell half the time we don't use it (although usually for sarcasm or due to not being serious) and I know someone irl who doesn't like bad grammar/spelling who NEVER uses shift (I don't know exactly how well her grammar is though, I don't care so I don't pay attention).

You should use good grammar/spelling, but at the same time you shouldn't complain when someone uses bad grammar/spelling. It's a thing relating to mutual respect and mutual courtesy. Hell I wrote an essay about that kind of stuff before, it was awzummm 8)

Try the Ctrl-Alt-Delete forums. They permaban for no reason at all.

[lord_carbo]

Haha Ctrl-Alt-Delete is insanely strict to the point where I'd never even think of even mixing up than/then there. I once challenged a mod's logic and almost got a ban, the next guy in that thread who talked about the subject, in fact, did 8)

[stretchypanda]

Guido is permabanned from ctrl alt delete.

[Sir_Thomas]

Understandable

[lord_carbo]

Ahahaha, I remember he eventually got away with the cartoon vagina. What did he do to get perma'd?

[stretchypanda]

Well, he got a ban for "spam" in their equivalent of critical thinking, on two occasions, I think. Once he posted that he loved the topic being discussed and would post more when he got home. Another time he accidentally hit submit or something and ended up submitting like a two-word post, and while editing in his actual thoughts, Sid banned him.

Once he tried to start up a C-A-D metrivia game, and got banned for calling something "The Official CAD" anything without permission.

I don't know what the "final straw" was, but it was something trivial and his ban message on the noose said he'd had too many chances. I'd look it up, but 1) Guido got my IP banned when he was caught browsing under a different name (not posting -- browsing, and I think he might have been in IRC chat with Sid), and 2) Sid removed the noose.

[GamerShadow]

That's pretty retarded. =/

To the people who don't understand why everyone is so mean:
Welcome to the internet. Here, you will encounter the strangest, and most annoying of creatures to ever be discovered. One of these is the not-so-magnificent troll, or, annoyingus bastardus. These creatures like to create many stupid pointless annoying messages (aka SPAM), to attract attention. Attention is their life force. Without it, they die.

And there ya have it folks. =P

[Necrophage]

Well...
Glad to see tht my rant about people being rude just helped to draw in a bunch of people with nothing more on their minds but being rude, or acting like they're better than everyone. A bunch of people meaning Guido, of course, who seems to think that grammar really IS a big deal. And as for my poem, Guido, I posted it here because no one really gives a rats ass about the literature forum and it'd get viewed more here. Its something that I felt was important and would've liked to share.

Hehe

I have -25 rep currently. I should shoot for -50.

[stretchypanda]

I guess I could browse on my work computer, but without a Guido to spy on, what's the point?

Also, to the OP: get over it already.

Necro, you seem like a cool guy that could get the grip of things around here if he stuck around. The only thing that's wrong with what your trying to explain is that it goes against the forum rules to post topics in the wrong forum. You'll receive the most constructive and helpful advice on your poems in the Literature Forum because the people who care about Literature will browse there, rather than random people browsing this forum.

The grammar thing you'll pick up on your own the more you stick around. When I first came here I used 2 type like dis and use 'u' instead of 'you' and stuff like that. Plus, you can always go to this thread for free grammar lessons.

I most certainly didn't get away with the cartoon vagina.
