Yes I 100% agree with this statement. Otherwise it's just going to be filled up with "I go to school", "I eat dinner", "I play computer games". It's just pointless and an eyesore to read if it's going to end up becoming like that. Overall, it should be a good impersonation of a person instead if "I'm doing X" or "I like X". I don't like the idea that threads will fill up with low effort rapid fire posts that nobody else will find interesting to look at. At least if there's some kind of insight, others may find them interesting to read. Otherwise, these topics will just start getting locked in time, which would be a shame.Master wrote: Sat Dec 16, 2023 9:45 pm Ok if y'all are reviving this thread, may I suggest you consider the caveat we put in way back when where you actually had to *pretend* to be the poster above. We ran into a quality issue where this thread devolved into "let's make an obvious observation about the above and not bother to actually *be* them"

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
I've seen exactly what took place here, and I'm going to speak up about this. I'm very disappointed in the attitude given towards Master who was giving a perfectly legitimate statement regarding the post qualities around here. Which I agree 100% with, the sheer audacity to have disrespected a highly respected member of this community who once was part of the staff is quite baffling to me.Master wrote: Sat Dec 16, 2023 9:50 pmSuccinct and typical use of passive-aggression and yet a characteristic disinclination to engage with the point being made, par for the fucking course.Greengoop wrote: Sat Dec 16, 2023 9:47 pm Lol guys I’m above the rules but I’m willing to give this place a shake, then I’ll return to the oblivion

I think we all want to be able to have fun with these game threads, but I find retaliations like this quite appalling and uncalled for. It's not hard to pay attention and follow the rules, especially when someone kindly takes the time out of their day to help you get on track so you can continue to enjoy these game threads in a more meaningful way.
I may have ignored some of the sheer disrespect that has gone towards me previously, but I just cannot sit back and ignore the same disrespect being thrown towards my comrades. Thank you Master and Steo for both sticking to your guns on this.
Let's get on with playing this game as it's meant to be played, shall we folks? (Lest we get it locked from all the nonsense.)
I'm going to make this a two part one because of both Master and Steo.
Master:
Ahem, I do not keep up with all the bullshittery of big techy corps, it's not my cuppa tea. I'd much rather invest my time and effort into watching Doctor Who.
Steo:
I love making chiptune music, I just wish I had an NTSC NES to enjoy them properly on! If only I can listen to my NES in stereo!

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
Howdy folks! Doing a general cleaning in my house I found a 1989 Acer 910 intact! It has cost me everyone and his mother, but I have managed to install Windows 11 on it and it runs smoothly. I can even watch HQ videos without cuts, like this one.

Ah, at long last I finally get to complete my latest novel! I shall begin writing the next sequel at once, the inspiration is overflowing! All my friends have greatly inspired me to make this the best book to date!
(Well, I can picture you writing a sequel to your book!

Get those damn headphones away from me! Don't even get me started on those stupid notches on phones, who's dumb idea was that anyway. 
I have to open a context menu, just to open another context menu? Seriously!?
What's that you say? Sorry, I only speak sub 15Hz.
(I agree with you that notches are stupid.

I have got to make sure I get these combos correct in Rayman 3, or else I will restart the level as many times as it takes to get the combos right! Meanwhile I left everything in Ireland so I can't clutter up the place with too much stuff! Aaaaah!

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
You call those speakers? ROFL! Plug those into my amp so we can watch those "speakers" blow up, it will be far more interesting than any sound we would get out of those. 
That "sub-woofer" is tiny, it probably can't even go lower than 120Hz.

I need good speakers, but I never get them since I'm focusing on my OLED desires! Oh I keep leaving things in Ireland again! Where is my Green Globox?

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
Man, I absolutely LOVE Rayman! I think I need to make another shrine for me and him, before I go listen to Rave music while writing fanfic about Rayman and me! Maybe I'll also go try and make another signature to add to my sig collection!

Good idea! Maybe you can save me from the ice cube while you do that, thus I can start making cursed thumbnails again!

I spent an embarrassingly long amount of time trying to draw using the touchpad... Wish my school would just let me use my actual laptop instead of this cruddy Chromebook :/.
