check the last line of a thread, 9/10 you will be told. Most of the times its cause your (not you personally) being a smacktard and breaking one of the forum commandments. Something i like to push wherever possible but it gets threads locked. Check out the FAQ about what and what NOT to post about. A general rule of thumb is no polotics, nothing racist, nothing with alot of excessive bad language, no avoiding the language filters by putting s p a c e s in your words and NO bad words against Arcon (THATS true).

Also, no spamming or useless threads like "is the sky blue?" or something rediculous. If its not a serious topic...click. Likewise, if a thread has been repeated elsewhere a dozen times "anyone heard of X2?" or "how old are you guys" will most likely get a click.

also, if your thread was locked, dont come on and go "my thread was locked, your all nazis" or "why was my thread locked". If someone else protests your thread locked then maybe you can join THAT thread, but chances are if a thread gets locked, most people but the author wont miss the thread at all, so no one cares to read the follow up thread by the disgruntled author and as such, it gets clicked. Thats why you email your qualms, keeps it out of my face.

Also, be sure to observe the rules of a particular thread like the matrix revolutions thread, dont be going in there saying "OMFG I CANT BELEIVE NEO WAS ACTUALLY A PROGRAM!!!!1ONE1!!!" cause then you'll just have pissed everyone off and the thread will most likely get deleted instead of locking.
DONT do what a few guys did a few months back and kept starting up threads like "This is an off topic forum right? so i'm just gonna go frrrrt alot and you cant do anything about it" wrong jackass. Click. No nonscence. just cause its not game related, doesnt mean its all about the dickead.

follow those...erm...'simple' rules and you'll be pukka


"it has to start somewhere, it has to start sometime, what better place than here, what better time than now"

to reinforce Archie's answer to ur post, bob3terd, look at the last line of my sig..


visit my junkshop and make me an offer!
..agree with Arcon year!..

@Taw, why do you have that as your sig? I'm curious. Was it to make up for when you and Arcon were under temporary restraining orders against each other?

... No more signature. <-----Irony

no its a recent development based upon experience

i forgot who else had that in their sig. someone else (you'll have to excuse my rudeness whoever you are) kept finding himself agreeing with me whenever i made a coment in a thread, so he used to just say "what arcon said" instead.
He then added "agree with arcon week" in his sig when he did it, and after the week was up changed it to "agree with arcon year".
Taw has found he's in the same boat, so added it to his. I figure people might miss it so i've made a sig inclusion. All supporters of arcon are asked to copy it into their sigs for fun (i doubt anyone will)

@Arcon, out of curiosity, what are your thoughts on someone having a "Disagree with Arcon week" sig? I wouldn't do it, but in a way you might be opening yourself up to that.

Take a look at my sig

I do often find myself in agreement with Arc, even if he says some things I wouldn't on ocasion

...and mine's pertier than Taw's

How did this get on to everyone talking about their sig?

blazeme, no one knows, for that is the nature of the off topic forum, always in motion the forum is. ( gah, a yoda moment )

Men are from mars, women from somewhere else
