Thread: From the Newbies...

my post count was cut by 50. i recieved a pm from pool cleaner re the brevity of my posts. in response to his request i expanded them. why has my post count been cut by 50 without explanation and if there are rules or guidance about such things where can i find it?

We ain't TV! Different ballpark, different rules. Now go run home to mommy...

Yeah, I had my post count cut as well before. It's one of the secret rules on this no rules forum. Theres nothing you can do about dude, admins rules aint it. Ask Dr Dirty Drake about it.

i dont know shit about "TV". so references to such mean nothing to me.

Mommy, mommy they aint playing fair...

simply wish to know what the expectations are and pig you aint helpin

Sorry obsidian, the baord policy is to try and keep the posts valuable and I guess you realise the error of your ways with the short posts.

we've had bad experiences in the past with spammers and sometimes the machine works rather brutally in this respect.

I have passed on your acknowledgement of my pm and the fact that acted accordingly.

To get your postcount up it's much better to go into the games room where posting one line nonsense is the norm.

Don't be put off by this situation.

Your input will be valued here.

Ok, let's forget the TV reference, my fault. Now, can you quit being a punk on TD? I am asking nicely.

'they' is us and 'fair' is fair...

Ahh, let the giants of minds contemplate. Time for a smoke...

Think, think, think...

the policy you describe might be better followed if it were written down somewhere for the newbie to read

Totally agree.

let's see if we can correct this.

But then they'd have forum rules which is not cool enough for these dudes, so you just have to post and hope admin don't use one of their secret rules and edit your threads without notification. Good Luck!

At the moment it looks like your posts are edited to fit in with the rules without any notification or warning. The rules are in the admins minds and not posted on here for fear of losing the new cool 'un modded' forum edge that AE held in last years exciting season of 'forum wars'.

I assume bannings and suspensions will be along soon enough AE style.

TD rules? Will there ain't any. Butt, we know when a poster has broken them... Common sense seems to prevail!

What is this fixation with post counts anyways?

What does it matter what your post count is?

Obsidian, I notice that you have been digging up threads that are months old and then adding a short comment to each one.

I suspect that this is the reason
Just trying to help
