[presure2]

im doing this here so as not to single anyone out, so i dont wanna hear anyone complain.

the post whoring needs to STOP.

the ones who are doing it know who you are.

if it dont stop, we will start warning and banning people if thats what it takes.

think of this as a "friendly warning".

post whoring? sorry i dont know what that means

[goferris]

basically people are just posting random posts in peoples threads that has nothing to do with the thread or very little to do with it. it can be very annoying and doesn't help anyone. they are just wanting to build their post count.

[SeverX13]

post whoring is to post on message boards for the sake of posting, to post useless things to raise your post count. To quote coomers examples "Im with stupid" or "Page 2 owned". As well as a just smiley post.

it basicly means posting just for the sake of posting, without any rhyme or reason about it.
cluttering up threads started by people with legitimate problems, or things to disscuss, with usless banter that is not on topic or helpfull in anyway.

What does raising your post count do? Not being rude, I am just curious is there a benefit to have more post than others.

Thanks

Some forums allow you to access certain threads only if u have the required amount of posts. I am in an MMA forum and if you want to sell something you must have at least 50 posts. and you must have 20 post to play the games they have haha. but on 6gc.net post counts doesnt mean much

God this is going to far,this is a family oriented site,if a post obstructs a topic then yes it should definitely be deleted but when someone wants to voice there opinion a topic and it doesn't affect the topic negatively then wat is the problem???

The problem is people making dozens and dozens of useless posts every day, and pointless chatter, and never contributing anything useful to anyone.
This drives away members from here that actually contribute and help people, and reduces the site's credibility.

There's no problem posting a lot, as long it's a useful contribution and don't just post any old crap just for the sake of it.

[CelicaST_CALI]

the main post whoring that i think is in the off topic section but wats the problem with that,ITS OFF TOPIC???its the off topic no one ever askes questions,all the other areas ie exterior,general and watnot,all of those topic questions are answered to the best of everyones knowledge.

[manphibian]

Welcome to the Off Topic forum! Please read this post completely before posting in the off topic forum. Some basic rules must be followed in order for this forum to not get out of control. These rules are the same as the rules for the rest of the forums, but let me reiterate them below:

1. Try to keep your posts clean. These forums, like the rest of the site, are designed to be a family-safe environment, and that means that you must watch your use of obscenities. This also means not attacking others in your posts. Try to be friendly, especially to newbies, and treat others how you want to be treated.

2. Don't post pornography, spam, racist material, or anything illegal. These things will not be tolerated, and will get you banned from the forums.

3. For sale posts are not allowed in this forum. If you want to sell something not related to the sixth generation Celica, you will need to do it elsewhere, and not on this site.

4. Please refrain from posting pointless posts, such as posts that are just smilies or posts that say stuff like "I'm with stupid" or "Page 2 Owned!"). This includes sarcastic posts about making fun of someone's car, or playful arguing with one another in a thread. These posts simply take over threads and turn them into useless garbage.


Thanks,
Christian Coomer

Note number 4 in particular.

That's how the site is run. Off-Topic just means non 6GC related. NOT post junk.

Stop whining thanks

[CelicaST_CALI]

No im not whining im trying to figure why this site is going downhill so fast..show me some posts that are completely useless...

--------------------

thats just the past few days.
there is no need for this crap on the site.
thats just a couple of the types of post that need to just stop, it dont matter if its in off topic, or anywhere else for that matter.

[CelicaST_CALI]

Just drop it.

There are dozens of your stupid posts that have been deleted. I have deleted the same 'woo hash' post about 5 times, do you think we have nothing better to do?

If you don't like the way things are done here, you know what to do
