It's by far the most active one I've been too...

[QUOTE]There really isn't alot of traffic here though, this place is actually pretty dead compared to most forums I've been to...

Oh well, it's just an idea[/QUOTE]
It's been alright this week, but the past few weeks the server has been pretty dodgy.

Jom 05-05-2007 10:31 PM

This server is a steaming diarrheal pile of shi[font=verdana]t[/font], but the reason for PMs not being enabled is because on a board of this size (you have to consider all the forums, not just R&M), it wouldn't be logistically sound.

Four potential alternatives:

- PM via the reputation system
- Ask the person you want to communicate with to e-mail you in a community thread
- Look at his/her profile and look up contact info
- Smoke signals

Kage 05-05-2007 10:40 PM

But what specifically is not logistically sound about it?

Riva 05-06-2007 04:27 AM

Well I can understand the reasons why PM are not activated but it would definitely be something convenient.

Point taken, point taken.

A certain big-name metal forum is a LOT bigger than MX and it has a pm system. It probably has a better server, but that goes against the size argument.

Riva 05-06-2007 05:37 PM

I doubt I'd actually get that many PMs. :-/

But it served to illustrate one of the two main reasons that the PM system has been rebuked by Jeremy a number of times.

This should probably be deleted.

Posted in the thread and made up a rating out of thin air even though he blatantly hasn't heard it. Ban, please.

Invicta_Veritas 05-07-2007 09:58 AM

Yea, that dude is seriously getting on my nerves. And he keeps doing it.....

Dr. Jake Destructo 05-07-2007 10:00 AM

1) The thread is worthless in the first place
2) He's generally a great user

Kage 05-07-2007 10:00 AM

He's continually a dumbass.

whatsgrimace 05-07-2007 10:01 AM

Yeah, seriously guys. If it bothered you that much, I'm sorry. I'll make sure I treat that particular thread with the utmost seriousnesss from now on.

Invicta_Veritas 05-07-2007 10:01 AM

1) The thread is fun, and some of us actually enjoy it.
2) "generally a great user" does not mean "has a free pass to be a dumbass in a decent thread".

Dr. Jake Destructo 05-07-2007 10:06 AM

Well requesting a ban for a good user on the premise of ****ing up your silly little thread is ridiculous, sorry. Plus, a lot stupider things go on without getting any notice or criticism.

whatsgrimace 05-07-2007 10:07 AM

Thanks Jake.

Kage 05-07-2007 10:11 AM

I demand retribution.

Nepenthe 05-07-2007 04:27 PM

If you let one person get away with not properly rating what the user above him is listening to, then everyone is going to think they can do the same, and authority would lose the day. What would become of this board if the user above never got to properly see what user below thought of what he was listening to?

Kage 05-07-2007 05:31 PM

Fuc[size=2]k[/size] off, this is a serious issue that needs to be dealt with accordingly.

Invicta_Veritas 05-07-2007 05:46 PM

Um Kage, I think Nepenthe was supporting our arguement....

Stormrider 05-07-2007 05:50 PM

[QUOTE=Behemoth_Rules_All;14661972]Um Kage, I think Nepenthe was supporting our arguement....[/QUOTE]

Sounded like he was being sarcastic:

Stormrider 05-07-2007 05:54 PM

Oh, damn I missed that :p

Invicta_Veritas 05-07-2007 05:56 PM

Well, I dunno, that is kinda the point of the thread.

Kage 05-07-2007 05:57 PM

Yeah but it's absurd to say that it has any implications on the forum outside of the thread itself.

Invicta_Veritas 05-07-2007 05:58 PM

Oh, yea I missed "Board". My bad.

Kage 05-07-2007 05:58 PM

:p

Anyway it was all in good fun.

Invicta_Veritas 05-07-2007 05:59 PM

Yea, haha.

Kage 05-07-2007 06:00 PM

Although whatsgrimace is kind of a douche.

Invicta_Veritas 05-07-2007 06:01 PM

I don't pay attention much to posters who haven't been regs for quite some time.....so I wouldn't really know outside the thread.

Nepenthe 05-07-2007 06:30 PM

It was sarcasm. My sincerest apologies.

niobium 05-07-2007 07:54 PM

[QUOTE=Kage;14662045]Although whatsgrimace is kind of a douche.[/QUOTE]

Just wondering why you think this (and also why Behemoth doesn't like him) because he is my irl friend. I'm just curiously watching this whole thing that stemmed from the "rate what i'm listening to" thread.

if you don't respond i'll neg you and your whole family

Kage 05-07-2007 07:55 PM

I'm just kidding around. I had just woken up and I was a little irritable in the "rate" thread and I got pissed when my great NP (it's one of my favorite songs) was disregarded by some guy who thinks maybe if he hears the song he'll give it a 6/10 just cuz.

But it's no big deal he's not a bad guy.

Nostalgia 05-07-2007 07:56 PM

That thread is causing more harm than good.

niobium 05-07-2007 08:11 PM

Lol when he reads that then. I told him he just got trolled hardcore, but when he said that you actually reported him, I had some doubts.

A many lol.

ps. Lol looks weird as hell

Kage 05-07-2007 08:13 PM

Yeah, I admit I wanted him banned (because Vince said he was going to ban people who did what he did in that thread) at first but I took it further than it had to go just for fun.

Dr. Jake Destructo 05-07-2007 08:17 PM

Wait, you guys discuss mx irl?

faggots!
