Sensible members need a place of their own. -

At another message board I post at and a few others that I have seen, they have 1 forum for general Chit chat and one for serious discussion. That way all of the stupid things wouldn't be in the Serious Forum. But the problem about trying that here is that this place is too small and it would take people away from the Oddwold games itself.

The Elite Forum idea really Sucks. We want to attract people here not keep them away. If there was a "special" forum for good people then most people wouldn't want to stay here if they wern't the "Special" people.

We're not saying we just want Serious Discussion, just that we want interesting topics instead of dull, boring, "Will you be my friend" topics, or just plain pointless spam... We want Serious and Non-Serious things in here...

How can you say you do not want dumb stuff like "will you be my friend" if you havent even got rid of all the forum members on this site who dont post and have names that mock oddworld and this forum. These people make the site look unorganized and definately adds to the pointless-ness, and isnt this just as bad or a worse problem?

Deleting non-posting members is a bad idea for lots of reasons. The main ones being the politics and logistics of the whole idea.

What is the point of getting rid of them if they never post? They're not getting in the way; nobody would even notice that they were there unless they went and read through the Member List, and who's that sad, really?

It's not the Political Correctness I mind, it's the Pretending to be Clever...

Majic · #38 04-19-2002, 10:31 PM

Exactly Danny. Murphy, with your little proverbs and stuff, geebus, we're just going to have to resort to duct tape

morphius · #39 04-20-2002, 12:28 AM

I am very sorry you are jealous Danny

And its the sad organization and structure of the site, I thought you were a liberal, shouldnt something be changed?

Majic · #40 04-20-2002, 12:35 AM

Are you saying this place sucks? I dont get it, this is by far one of the best forums I've ever been to. So you think you could make it better murhpy, eh? Since you joined today all I've seen you do is be a constant bane in my eyes, you have like 75 posts! Most from stupid arguments you've created! First day! You shouldn't be talking, not at all murphy. Its idiots that make this place worse, but TOWF seem to have steered clear of most.

morphius · #41 04-20-2002, 12:37 AM

No , only the weak are timid, and now I have 75 posts.......

Majic · #42 04-20-2002, 12:42 AM

No, its because we don't want to sound like idiots posting every 3 minutes on topics that we created a stupid argument in. Simple as that.

morphius · #43 04-20-2002, 12:45 AM

They are not stupid only full of thought..............

Majic · #44 04-20-2002, 12:47 AM

Your full of bull, not thought. (my opinion)

morphius · #45 04-20-2002, 12:49 AM

I respect this, but how do you support this?

Statikk HDM · #46 04-20-2002, 01:13 AM

Lay off. what did Morphious ever do to you? Oooh, no, morphious is a new member who actually posts. The horror! What would be so good about an adult topic area. Go to a political board like a RATM board or some such thing. And if we are all about weighty issues, why has not one word been said about the middle eastern problem with Arafat and Sharone? Maybe people come here because it has a nice atmosphere and isn't so heavy. I like this place, but the special board would just add to the "I got my posts than you, so you are a worthless newbie" problem.

He's confrontational and he says stupid things and thinks they sound clever.

Morphius is a new member who actually posts bullshit.

We gave up on that idea ages ago. Keep up.

Jacob · #48 04-20-2002, 10:53 AM

I was gonna post something but Dan beat me to it. Oh well...Stad...quiet.

morphius · #49 04-20-2002, 01:03 PM

Actually Danny everytime you questioned what I knew, I explained myself, about technology for example.....

Eh, Morph, could you point me to said post? I'm having difficulty finding it...

You explained yourself, and in the process revealed that you didn't have a clue what you were talking about.

morphius · #53 04-20-2002, 01:48 PM

I said what it was and you, my friend seem to know very little about it and are very confused......................

Teal · #54 04-20-2002, 01:58 PM

Eh, morph, the more you type the more you remind me of the little plasticine man of the same name. Hardly anyone understands him, either.

Buh bop bi-bey?

Social status does not concern me......

I know what it is, which is more than can be said for you...

This had absolutely nothing to do with anything we were talking about, so why the hell did you say it?

morphius · #57 04-20-2002, 02:27 PM

Well if you read my post I explained it and its benefit if all goes well, that is more than I can say for you......

You may have tried, but that fact is that what you said was wrong, so it doesn't make any difference... I may not have said what it was, but at least I know, whereas you did say what you thought it was, proving that you didn't know...

morphius · #60 04-20-2002, 02:40 PM

The fact is you know nothing about it and couldnt even explain it and I never miss interpreted it..........
