I've also deleted some pretty stupid topics in the past. People need to stop posting new topics for every little thing when a similar topic usually already exists if they search for it. But we can't all be super serious here. We still need to have a little fun ;]</p> <p>Also, since people we're having a fit about the word association game topic title changes I changed them back. I guess there is a line to draw between helping people and confusing the heck out of them, lol. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/5018#post-53782 Sun, 29 Mar 2009 00:26:20 +0000 notblocklox 53782@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Hi, <strong>friends and neighbours</strong>,<br /> again graylox has something to ponder about:<br /> <strong>These forums were and should be a place where users can find and give help for computer and software related questions</strong>. See BuBBy's comment <a href="http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/2030">Forum RULES</a><br /> Nobody says that it has to be dead boring or bone-dry. We had such a lot of fun with our discussions that some threads were a long way off topic after some time.<br /> To bundle our chit-chat we (mostly maizeydaze) opened some fun threads. However even they were somehow computer- or internet related, as special sites were found and shared: amazing sites, funny sites, sites for fractals or music... and so on.<br /> Our photos were mostly used as an example in a tutorial, e.g. Goody's panorama adventures. Or to brag with our macro photos of flowers and bumblebees as a part of a game.<br /> Meanwhile some threads are only used to show pets and flowers without any relation to computer, software, camera-techniques...mostly only one user is speaking with himself.<br /> I think other forums on other sites are the better place for such contributions.<br /> It came even worth, the open chit-chat was used to speak bad about other users, behind the back of most of us, members and good friends of us are threatened and defamed.<br /> These forums were and shall stay a friendly place for friends.<br /> I deleted some threads today and hope that you will feel happy here and that you'll send a PM to the admins or mods if you feel threatened or have a problem with one of the other users. Nobody shall leave the forums because of one rotten egg (in 2 weeks is Easter - don't forget). Some friends left us, I'll mail them and hope they will come back soon. </p> <p><em>Whao, this Moderator has done her homework now, the rest of this short night (daylight savings in Europe) I'm going to play The Serpent of Isis.<br /> Please <strong>DO</strong> disturb if you feel for it</em> <strong>:)</strong></p> <p>Have a good night and day!<br /> <strong>graylox</strong> </p>
