Yosuke-kun Posted November 14, 2009 Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 First, people can you try to stop baging n the mods all the time. Its starting to piss me off. Anyways, theres been alot of talk about spamming and inapropriate image spam, but I'd like to say, please sto coplaining about it. I'm not saying I lke it, or that it doesn't happen. I hate it, it it does happen, but you make it sound like thers a billion of these posts a day. It does happen, but not this much. Spam is kind of a minor rule too, so locking threads because of it is a bit much. If its an inapropriate spam thread, or post, its best to delete it, and ban the users IP. Also, to all the so called "legends", lay off the newbies. Its like becaus of one peron, you all freak out and hate all people who have less stars or reps or whatever as you or they have poor grammer. Your not better than them, and I've found that most of the spammer are newbies who've been treated poorly by senior members. I don't know your whole backstory, but I'm gonna guess that its not good enough for you to be able to treat others poorly. And another thing. Stop calling yorselves legends. Your not legends, your teens, mid twenty year old guys/girl, or emotionaly disturbed adults who have nothing better to do with your life. If you want to be a legend so badly, then go do something that will make you an actual legend. And before anone gets mad at me, and starts saying crap like "If you want attention", I'd like to point out, that I don't want atention. I just thought these matters should be brought up. I'm sorry if I angered anyone, but this is how I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windowlicker Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 I smell a minimod.No, really, almost every other mod has already posted this, and did it make a difference? No. And as Unorthodox said, we can be legends if we want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xing Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 A Legendary Member is 6 Stars. Blame YCMaker for that. Get over yourself. A Legend is nothing. Legends have never existed on the internet. And now, thanks to you, I have 1 bar of health left in my game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzi Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 A Legend is a Member that has earnt the respect of members enough to actually call them one. By that definition there are very few legends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 A Legend is a Member that has earnt the respect of members enough to actually call them one. By that definition there are very few legends. Which is why I called myself one. Even though it's ego-centric, it's true, I've done a lot more for the site than most. =\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yosuke-kun Posted November 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 But I am a Legend. EDIT: I also love how you're telling us about the Rules but you're advertising in your signature. I don't think I mentioned the rules though. And I'm not telling anyone what to do, just saying you SHOULD try to calm down. And as for the legend part, nobody here is a real legend. On the site to a few people maybe, but those who call themseves legends just because they want to feel like they're better than others end up being dragged down in the end. I've seen it hapen on the site and in reallity too. Anyways,a legend isn't self proclaimed. You need to have others decide wether or not you are a legend. Not just on the site, but in reallity too. And f you go around sayig your a legend, ten you make yourself sound concieded. EDIT: Sorry if I sound like a jerk, but it pisss me off when people start to think they're better then others because they did stuff for the site or something. Als, sorry if any words are miss spelled. My keyboard randomly drops letters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Star Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 Spaces, my good friend, spaces. You clumped all your ideas together in one giant monstrosity of a paragraph and I struggled to read it. Nonetheless, I did, and I feel I must point out the flaws in your 'rant'. - No one's going to not complain about the image spam. You could tell people, you could make it a rule, but with thousands of active members, you're gonna find someone that's gonna sit and whine about it with the feeling that if they complain, something's going to be done. So stop complaining about people complaining. - Why leave a spam thread open? So people can post and get a higher post count? There's no point in deleting it, sort of leaving it there so some people might see it and say "Hey, I shouldn't do that because I'll get warned." or whatever. It's not like deleting it serves any purpose, and people who spam aren't generating any sort of positive discussion anyway. - Legends aren't "LEGENDARY PEOPLE", and I think you misunderstand the purpose. People who are considered legends have earned that through helping people, card making, GFX, being cool to talk to, or some combination of the above. Legends don't post threads complaining about a bunch of ridiculous things that aren't really important, and follow the rules, like you're clearly not doing by advertising your Site in your signature there. So, until you get the credibility, maybe you should lay off the criticism a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yosuke-kun Posted November 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 Ok, while I value your opinion, didn' you just do the paragraph thing ygu critisised me for? And I don't want to be a legend, and I don't think any body should be called legends. Also, I've never been one to follow rules, and I don't plan on changing for anyone. My point on the legend thing, was tha certai people get carried aay with it andstart to think that they ARE legends. I'm not saying thats how everyone on the site who say they're egends re, but alot of them do. Also, Inoticed yor the only on who's even mantioned the spam thread thing, so I thank you for that.Wile I agree that they should be left up for others as an example, I also feel that the iapropriate image threads shouldnb't be lef out fr perverts to gawk at. And sorry for the long posts. I like to say all I can in one post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And sorry for the long posts. I like to say all I can in one post.[/quote'] First things first, there's a difference between writing multiple paragraphs and putting everything together in one. I did the latter, whereas you did the former. It just makes it difficult to read is all. - No one said Legends are 'better' than anyone else. We're all just people on a website on the internet that's not going to matter a year or two from now. The point is, those people do have more credibility than the newer members because they've earned that right. They know what they're talking about, although I'm not saying it's impossible for a Legend to be like 'well, I have more posts/stars, I'm better than you' but those people aren't really legends, are they? People like J-Max and Brushfire are respectable legends that do what they can to help out around the site, and that's why they're considered such. - In response to your image threads, I'm not saying leave the images there. What I mean is, by removing the images and locking the thread, people at least get an idea of what happened. If you delete it, what's to stop the person from coming back and posting the same thing right after? It's more convenient to just lock it and leave it as an example, which is why people probably do it. Plus, the post count stays. ;D (I'm kidding.) All seriousness, though, there's no point in deleting them. - There's a difference between not liking the rules and not following them. If you don't follow rules, just like in life, you're gonna get in trouble. Granted, punishment on an internet forum is obviously not as important nor as extreme, but you get what I'm trying to say. If you can't follow the rules (while some are a bit strict) that are laid out for you, then you really don't deserve to be saying "Well, don't do this guys", because you're not exactly setting a good example yourself.

Yosuke-kun Posted November 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 I see, I'll post in a list form like you then. -I agree that if I don't follow the rules, then I look like a hipecrit (or however thats spelled) by telling others to follow the rules. But I don't do it because I think its too strict, I do it becuase your idea of trouble, is my idea of fun. -And now that you've clearified what you meant by locking them, I feel your way is better. -As for the legend thing, I've seen alot of them bullying my younger brother, and some of the other people not caling themselves legends joining in and calling the one who claims to be a legend a legend. I hev nodoubts that Brushfire and J-Max aren't honorable, but there are many others who aren't as honorable as them. And I don't think I'll ever stop thinking that people calling themselves legends is concieded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't do it because I think its too strict, I do it becuase your idea of trouble, is my idea of fun. To each his own, I guess. It's not like following the rules are that hard. At least the ones that are necessary. I mean, spamming and stuff just makes you look like an ass. :| -And now that you've clearified what you meant by locking them, I feel your way is better. I feel that way too. -As for the legend thing, I've seen alot of them bullying my younger brother, and some of the other people not caling themselves legends joining in and calling the one who claims to be a legend a legend. I hev nodoubts that Brushfire and J-Max aren't honorable, but there are many others who aren't as honorable as them. And I don't think I'll ever stop thinking that people calling themselves legends is concieded. People aren't calling themselves legends, people are considered legends. There's a difference. Let's just show you an example. The President of the United States is chosen to be the President by the people, right? So when he calls himself The President, does that make him conceited? It's just like the people of YCM consider Brushfire a legend, when he refers to himself as a legend, it's a title, not a status so-to-speak. Like I said, there are a few people who are a little too higher on their throne to realize that they're not perfect, but for the most part YCM has a nice community and I don't think too many people have the 'intention' of acting that way. Usually, if a legend acts like an ass, they're doing it because whoever they're acting like an ass to gave them a reason to be. And in that case, it's probably deserving.

Yosuke-kun Posted November 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 -Your right about the whole given to them by the people, but I remember a while back, a guy who self poclamed himself a legend, and had other people agree with him, and hat guy was the bigget jackass I've ever met (exepting a few people I now i reallity). And ufortunatly, ther are to any people doing that again. -And its not like I don'tnow right from wrong, I just geta kick out ofseeingpeopl mad whe a rule is broken. Its noty like I'd break a major law, like killing or stealling though. The only time I'd ever kill or steal, was if it was to save a friend, and I had no other choic. And even then, I'd search tirelessly fo an option other than killing (stealling, not so much). I migh also steal if I felt that someone was being unfairly taken from. Like steallng food for the hungry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't like the fact that someone's a legend, or you don't feel that there a legend, you're probably outnumbered as it is.

I just hate when people complain about things that are pointless to complain about especially because you probably didn't take into consideration half of the things I said until I actually said them. Brushfire's a really good friend of mine and an awesome person overall who's definitely earned the right to call himself a legend here. Hey, he was the biggest name I banned during my time as a Super. (Lmao.) Anyway, I don't wanna start spamming this up, but as long as you get the point.
