Forum suggestions?

I don't really care.

Wow, just wow. I had guessed you would be smarter than that. :salute:

Nobody cares but you....

Falcon4 · Post by **Falcon4** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 1:38 pm

Okay, maybe I should put it in terms you can better understand.

Dude, you shouldn't drive your car all the time in 1st gear.
"I don't really care."

edit: And why in the hell should I be the only one caring about this forum's well-being? :scratch:

Results 1 - 10 of about 594,000 for fiero forum.

It's number 10. Not too shabby.

It's number 1 for real fiero forum.

So everyone should use a 4-banger because it gets you around too, eh?

Why don't you go start your own "Better Forum" and show all us neophytes how it is done. I am sure people will flock to your door.

What is all this fucking trouble about a 5-second fix? Christ, if people like you ran the world, we'd still be grunting over sticks trying to figure out how to make fire... :scratch:

edit: No, wait. We'd still be trying to get sticks but you'd be saying "ugh need no sticks!". Instead we'd just be jacking off in the bushes all fucking day long because it's all the entertainment you cared for.

Shit, that's about what I do now, anyways.

Falcon4 · Post by **Falcon4** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 3:08 pm

Well, that's a better reply than I was expecting, at least. :thumbleft:

Sorry if I seem to be coming off a little abrasive here. I just can't comprehend why it's such a major hassle to make a minor change that is for the better of the site. It's cuz I'm black ain't it?

HATE CRIME!

There's a time in my life where I would have taken the bait. That time is in the past.

Maybe there's a reason why I allow unregistered users to post in that section and in my opinion, it outweighs the fact that the spammers can more easily hit it.

Why is it such a magor hassle for you that he's NOT making a "minor change" or "5 second fix"?

If it's a 5 second fix, it can't be that important, can it?

Then perhaps my suggestion would be to out and out delete the spam instead of letting them get away with promoting their website through such blatant forum spamming? We try to run a community here, not a spam repository... right?

You know, stuff like this is probably pathetically trivial to a lot of people, but my life's slogan is "something worth doing is something worth doing right". I'd never put out something that I didn't think is my best work, and I try to give the same back to people I think could use the help as well. So I'm sorry if I come off as a picky, irritating little bastard. The little details make the bigger picture better...

edit: A 5 second fix is the difference between driving in 1st and driving in 2nd, 3rd, or 4th (if that much).

The forum is fine the way it is. Thanks.

Ok, I am ready to trade this guy for Aaron back.

Well it's a good thing this forum isn't your work, isn't it?

When people politely refuse your aid, respect their wishes.

Fuck you... you haven't said a single civil thing in the whole time I've seen you around. Maybe you're the one that should leave.

So, whatever. I can't possibly imagine intentionally ignoring advice. If one of your users says something can be done better, who's the forum serving? You? Hell, that site I spam all over the place, Hostfile, is as awesome as it is today because I took everyone's suggestions and listened to them. The whole direction this topic took is a tribute to the hopeless state of e-human nature. :puke:

The Dark Side of Will · Sun Feb 04, 2007 11:33 pm

Contemplate the difference between *ignoring* advice and *evaluating, then declining* advice.

You're not being ignored. You're being refused. Live with it.

Should your word go because you're you? Everyone else is saying it's fine. The Host is saying it's fine. Drop it.

I could come up with yet another smart analogy here, yet I'm sure it wouldn't make a damn bit of difference. At any rate, I presented facts that (probably) weren't known before and my suggestion still goes blissfully ignored (in a cloud of "i don't care"ism). You know, there are reasons I present these ideas, and not a one of them has anything to do with myself...
