SunnyDRE Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 People that over the top with their love or dislike for GNRI never cared aboutRacist posters are pretty much the only people that I think should be banned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailaway Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I don't care, really, it's the current admins' problem. Perhaps if people get too fed up with the cupcakes they will migrate to other boards, like my own. It's not like mygnr is the only place for gnr fans to hang out.Care to divulge ur forums name S.M.?Would be refreshing to debate without everything digressing into playground insults.

sailaway Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Don't know what the OP intended with this thread,but many probs could be eliminated by NOT trolling sections that you dislike.I talked with volcano about easing up on the alumni slags months ago.Got no use for BBA, and his pretentious faux insider bullshit.

SONOFABITCH Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 All due respect to the new staff here, but I think the idea of giving everyone a second chance was a good idea in theory. But, when you consider that BBA has made account after account after account, he has had more than enough opportunities to show a change in behavior that got him banned initially. He's doing the same exact thing he did back when he posted an obscure, translated review of the 2009 South Korea show: trolling. Personally, I feel rather than giving a blanket second chance to everyone, it should have been done on a case by case basis. After all, while some were unfairly banned, some were banned with reason...again and again and again in BBA's case.AliMake that 3 posters on ignore...

As of now, the Eric administration of MyGNR is dead and a thing of the past. This is the SubsyMyGNR and everyone gets a fresh start, regardless of what they did before. It's like a brand new forum.

As UK Subs suggested, just check the section for other sites, or send me a PM.It is well done,but not very active.618 posts in May, that's about 20 per day. From 176 mostly lurking users.

As an incentive, maybe the mods could name the VR section, the Bring Back Adler section in his honor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
username Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) Right now this forum is just plain shit because it's being overrun by annoying dumb cupcakes. BBA and Volcano aren't even the worst examples here. Big Rocket King, ThomasMeadow, MSL.. Plus the large number of idiots that were allowed back. The long, personal and most of all pointless discussions these people keep creating ruin thread after thread.And as a result of that, the forum.

Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 What do people have against TM? He barely ever post outside of his own threads. How hard is it to avoid him if you don't like him? It's not as if he's all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a tad harsh.I do agree there needs to be significant changes *sighs* which again, WILL happen with the forum restructure along with other cool stuff around the corner.When I think what's happened in this forum in the 9 years I've been here to listen to a few minority moan about things here in a few weeks is frustrating being honest but hey ho, I respect all opinions.Please be patient, things will change around here for the better -- we're doing our best to do them as soon as physically possible. Again, I can't even begin to explain the huge amount of non visible changes we've already made -- clearly for some we're not moving quickly enough.

SONOFABITCH Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I will go so far to say I like the forum right now as is - even without further changes. With the ignore feature, anyone who complains about another poster is just plain lazy. Use the ignore feature, don't cry to the mods.

This isn't kindergarten and the mods shouldn't be forced to babysit. I personally don't ignore anybody, but it is a good feature to look in to before complaining about the forums.

Dazey Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 As far as I can see 99% of the bitching, with a few notable exceptions, is simply as a result of the old regime coddling the NuBand fans far too much and censoring any (frequently justified) criticism. The place has a far better balance of fans from all points of view now and I think some people who don't like not having it all their own way anymore are upset by it. That's why I'd like to see a merging of the old and new band sections cos it does get some good and genuine debate going. If people don't like what others say they can put them on ignore or not click on their threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
