Bottom line.... there will always be someone pissed off at something someone says on here.. along with people who agree and who disagree.

Just say your sorry, move on and act like nothing happened no matter what there replies are. The bitching will go on until the next guys fouls up and you will be old news and forgotten about.

I have been in many heated arguments on here. So I know from personal experience there will always be a need for a new whipping boy. Today is your turn, tomorrow it will be someone else so don't get hell bent on it.

There are rules and unspoken rules. So don't sweet it to much.

"Toy collectors are pretentious assholes"

In no time flat you will be bitching out newbies also

So true. Today's noobs are tomorrow's hippo police.

What will you do if we let you go home,
And the plastic's all melted,
And so is the chrome?
WHO ARE THE BRAIN POLICE?

What will you do when the label comes off,
And the plastic's all melted,
And the chrome is too soft?

WAAAAHHHHHH!

WHO ARE THE BRAIN POLICE?

What will you do if the people you knew
Were the plastic that melted,
And the chromium too?
WHO ARE THE BRAIN POLICE?

---Thank you Mr. Zappa!

Yes, I see that annoying trend regularly - the abused becomes teh abuser and so on.

I've been here since day 1 and I still think the board is great. Here's some of my personal mantra: Treat people with civility and respect, don't say stuff you wouldn't say to someones face and act all tough hidden behind your keyboard, think before you speak, share quality info, listen, learn and have fun....but NOT at someone else's expense....and always remember that we were all noobs once.

How bout a "Mark all as read" button?

You mean like this link at the bottom of the forum index?

hail Muton!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol...I really should wear my glasses all the time

Haha -- Yea, I use it sometimes. I've noticed the board, on occasion, will show topics I have read as unread, so it comes in handy.

I think you may have accidentally hit your mental ignore button.

I'm gonna chalk that one up to my old age.

i'm a total new jack om here but muton pretty much nailed it on the head. there is always a golden rule on any messageboard, whether its a kaiju board or a sneaker board; don't say anything you wouldn't say in person. otherwise you might get some b9 style 'edit face' eventually!

ps unless you've only been posting on boards for two weeks, you would have to have at least a rough idea on how to 'conduct' yourself i would think.
