There are to many bitter people on these forums. We're tired of people ragging on others, such as the mods, NG staff members, etc. Like "If anyone else did that, they'd be banned! Blah blah blah!' Your comments aren't appreciated, they aren't helpful, and they are just plain annoying, and encourage others to be annoying. From this point on users may find themselves banned if they feel the need to "mouth" off about the short comings of the mods or NG staff members. Everyone wants to have a good time on the forums, not read posts by a bunch of bitter people moaning about this and that. If you don't like the way we run the forums, go somewhere else.
The same goes for people who give other users crap for things like "Way to kiss Wade's ass!" or "Gotta make 5 pages of replies because Wade posted" or "Way to kiss up to Tom!" etc. The people who do this come off as jealous, bitter, a-holes.
If you liked some band, would you go to their website and ridicule people for getting excited when a band member makes a post? Or make stupid comments about everyone getting excited because a band member posted?
Of course if popular NG personalities make posts there will be people who get excited and want to be involved with the dicussion. No one gives a shit about user X with no Flash, not many posts, etc. However, when a popular Flash artist, a NG staff member, a respected mod, or a respected forum user, make a post, more people will get excited and want to get involved with the topic. It's only natural.
So to those who want to rain on everyone's parade, you will be BANNED for doing so.
Those who have a problem with this and want to make their useless comments known here will be BANNED.
