Even though I'm not Mod, I think this should be said. There is a limit to Random-ness. This is not a spam forum. When the say Random Im pretty sure they mean Off Topic. THose people who are 1st time message board, its understandable, it syour first time. But to those who are not, stop already, your ruining the place for other members.

ive closed a few threads, and posted a stickied thread to make sure people read the rules. however ill say it here again. This is the random forum, not the spam forum. this is where you post stuff that doesnt fit into any of the other forums, not a place to post innane, pointless, annoying crap posts to pad your post count.

expect a better ranting later as i am late for class now.

Not long, just from old forum.

I notice that the sub-forum's name has changed. Good move, on the Admin's part.

First night was intense.

Well, the member count shouldn't really scare you that much. I've been around these types of boards for awhile now and experience has taught me that the weaker less posty type members will wean themselves away from these here boards and find other stomping grounds; well, the ones that don't do anything stupid and get themselves banned. So, yeah... members come, members go, but the truly desolate stick around... I'm gonna go cry in a corner now... leave me alone.


Does anyone have a hankie?

Stick around, it always gets better after a bit ^^

The first week is the biggest week. You should have a rule that if you dont post within 2 days of joining or sometin they will be deleted.
