17. januari 2009, 21:00:39 Onderwerp: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? I am getting tired of this sandbox that BrainKing is turning into. Some users in here seem to spend all their time hating on others, making polls about them left and right, and seem to have made it their mission to badmouth them all they can. I know there are people in here acting like idiots, but there are idiots everywhere. What you all are doing, calling out people in polls and all other public places, is very Kindergarten like. Are you sure you are adults??? Seriously, I'm here to play games and I am not at all interested in hearing about who is an idiot and who is not. If you have a problem with someone, ignore him/her! If the person is being really nasty, take a screen dump and send it to an administrator, it is really not the business of everybody else on BK! I can't be the only one who is tired of all of this?! And even if I am, I am happy I got this off my chest. I am sure I am stepping on some sore toes now but I really don't care, I had to say it. /DamnCat 17. januari 2009, 22:26:53 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Tuesday:I am not going to mention any names, no matter if it is people who write about other people or the people who are being discussed. I am not active in any type of discussion board or anything like that (that's why you never noticed me or heard of me before), I have just noticed that this behavior is getting out of hand and to me it is nothing but a sandbox. I know that this happens when a large group of people get together but most of the times people can handle it without getting bystanders involved. I know I probably won't get rid of the problem by doing this but I am making people aware of it, and that's my whole point. 17. januari 2009, 21:20:02 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? DamnCat: 2 things you can do to not be bothered by this 1. when the first poll pops up that you do not like, you can click on the link "Ignore polls from this user". This is probably the best solution as you can still enjoy the games and other features of that particular fellowship 2. If it is too much of a bother you can leave the fellowship. If everyone would do this it would stop because there would be no one else to listen 17. januari 2009, 22:20:29 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Vikings: I am aware that I can ignore polls from certain users and I have used this feature for some users who seems to be posting polls only about other people. Some users post both these kinds of polls and other regular polls and I'm still interested in the regular ones. I also have left the fellowships where this type of behavior got out of hand. I just wanted to address the issue since it seems to be escalating and I think it is childish behavior. If you have beef with someone, take it with that person and not everyone else around you, and if that doesn't solve the problem, get an admin to help you. I just don't get the idea of getting people involved in it that has nothing to do with it? 17. januari 2009, 23:03:52 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here?

I just don't get the idea of getting people involved in it that has nothing to do with it? well then I would suggest you take your own advice  18. januari 2009, 01:34:09 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Bernice:I am not allowed to bring up a subject that involves other members here being bashed and badmouthed? Why should I shut up about something like that? 18. januari 2009, 01:50:11 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Aangepast door Bernice (18. januari 2009, 01:55:19) DamnCat: you dont have to "shut up" about that as you put it.....just don't use anybody's name....as Vikings remarked below...I believe he thanked you for not mentioning anyones names   if you re-read what I originally said to you I think you will see what I was meaning 18. januari 2009, 02:08:16 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Bernice: No, sorry, I really don't get what you mean. But please feel free to explain. And why should I use any names when that's part of what I brought up in the first place? 18. januari 2009, 02:27:01 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? DamnCat: well I don't really want to go on with this but now that you have asked....here goes.... You said, ****If you have beef with someone, take it with that person and not everyone else around you**** I said you should take your own advice. You brought it to a public board instead of taking it to the person you had a beef with. I don't know how to explain it any further without getting MYSELF into trouble and goodness knows that happens enough when it takes the fancy of some  18. januari 2009, 02:45:01 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Bernice:Yes, I brought it to a public board because I wanted to address this subject to everyone, to get a discussion going. I was wondering if I am the only one who is tired of it, and also wondering if people are actually OK with this type of behavior. That's why I made it public. Thank you for explaining :) 18. januari 2009, 02:57:47 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here?  DamnCat:I for one am glad you did.  18. januari 2009, 03:11:07 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? DamnCat: just to clarify.....you ARE NOT the only one that is tired of it, but no amount of complaining does any good unfortunately  17. januari 2009, 23:45:30 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? DamnCat: I understand your position and the globals and Fencer have discussed this more than once, the problem here is the fact that this is going on in fellowships, (more than one) so until the behavior crosses certain guideline criteria or it spills over to the main boards, it's up to you to do as you see fit if your going to be in those fellowships, I am in some of these fellowships and have taken appropriate action. In other words if you don't want to be a part of it, you know what to do. Or in other words let the buyer beware And thank you for not mentioning names 17. januari 2009, 23:54:54 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Aangepast door Papa Zoom (17. januari 2009, 23:57:20) Vikings: Except that the poll results are public. If I were to post an offensive poll result on a public board it would be moderated. Why? Because the board is public. The fact that polls are created in private fellowships is no excuse to allow for abuse of other members and be able to get away with it. Again, the results are NOT private. And the polls to which DamCat is referring serves to illustrate this point. I could raise a huge stir if I were to post certain poll questions in my private fellowship. Why? Because the results could be seen by all. That fact alone is all that matters. 18. januari 2009, 00:01:30 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Artful Dodger: I did not realize that, thanks for bringing that up, you too Snoopy 18. januari 2009, 00:04:16 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Vikings: 18. januari 2009, 01:02:01 Onderwerp: Re: Don't you guys have anything better to do here? Vikings: we all know to whom he is referring tho don't we? they say that prevention is better than cure...but is it? the person in question is still allowed to have a fellowship in which these stupid polls are run...the 'focus" has just been shifted in a different direction is all |
