I know you like to have a discussion with a moderator, but what's so wrong in admitting that you were lazy? And yes, it does annoy me since you should have known better.

Guidelines =/= Rules

Just suggestions on how to post. At least that is my interpretation.

I am lazy. Doesn't mean I should know any better. I'm here to have fun after all, not get carried away by what is deemed good or bad posting. I just want to post.

It's the same joke as the 'cool points' back in the day. And no, they do not 'promote' spamming. That's your foolish interpretation. It's the same joke as gay porn and whatsoever, there has always been a big hype around the 'secretz of the modz forumz'.

Inadvertently promotes spamming**

22 was it, huh?

I'm amazed at your apparent lack of humour when I was trying to make this lighthearted. I don't want to be bitching on a Saturday morning.

And that's exactly why we have guidelines. We can't have everyone around posting when they fart. Have fun, but when there are more serious questions asked, be serious and take the effort to actually read the entire topic. "I just want to post" sure is the most foolish response I've seen when discussing when people are not contributing to a topic. You are a winner.

What, you couldn't properly answer that?

Wow, seriously? You call that humour? Alright...
But we've totally derailed the thread already - which you're good at - and we should stop our discussion. For the next time: please put more effort in your posting when the topic is meant to be serious.

For the record, I was trying to make it clear in the OP that most of my suggestions were jokes, and I included the 10k forum in there as a joke. It's pretty well known throughout the BBS that it's not real.

This is news to me.

1. Mods and Admins
2. Admins only
3. 10k posters
4. 100k total stats

I've read the entire thread, then what? It doesn't say I can't repeat what someone else said. General is full of repeating posts, the only place it's annoying in is wi/ht, when it really isn't needed.

Which explains exactly why Zendra thinks it doesn't exist.

A rumor, or something you just made up?

They have nothing to do with Iron Fist.
