There is peace, what the hell?

I have noticed in the forums since my return, there is less distension, sticklers, spammers, feelings hurt, friends lost, etc. Don't get me wrong, I love it this way. Everyone seems more layed back and more accepting. More friendly all around. This is awesome! I do know this doesn't mean there a few little squals here and there with clashing opinions. Is it because the trouble-makers arn't around anymore? Well whatever it is everyone seems to be getting along better.

Thou art blind, my good sir.

For the love of Odd (as you crazies say), check the Urgent thread in Welcomes and Birthdays and the Hilarity in OWF's History thread in Off-topic.

Looks like a clash of the titians (mods) to me is were most of it is coming from. I see your point. It is always on the most ridculous crap too, and its between two people refusing to be wrong. Yet still don't you have to admit welcomes, returns, etc are in a lighter mood then say last year. Like I remember some newbie coming on and saying something no farther to the jist of "hello" and some freak jumps all over them and we never hear from them again, that needless to say pissed me off that could have turned out to be my best friend. I see less of that know, like I said there a massive sprouts of anger still visable just overall speaking it seems a least a little more pleasent, wouldn't you agree?

It depends where you look. If someone joins that has also been a member called 'Reese Charles' they get people 'jumping all over them'.
Normal new members have never really got much shit unless they start posting stuff people don't like.

I don't see much of a change around here, except for the dullness, obviously.

I love this forum but I hate it's current state. Don't ask for explaining.

Well there was a time when people used to flame newbies, or at least scare them. Lol... Like someone would come up and say: Don't mess with me, cos if you do blah blah blah. And then after a few days we would all be like: I think we scared him away...

Heh, I aint been here in months. And yous know why? Because there were certain arseholes here who really hurt my feeling *boo, hiss!*

However, there are some really nice people here too.

Although, I must admit, the only reason I came back here today was because I am bored... so I thought I'd see if theis place is any less stiff than the last time I was here.

Lol.. Steefie, never get too emotional attached to the forums... ^_^ It's bad for yer health.

These forums are practically the first ones I've been on, and I've grown fond to most of the people 'ere.
Peaceful as it seems, beneath the threads and topics, a flamewar may start to brew...
But yeah...it seems...more laid-back when I first joined, and it's been like 'dis ever since.
(BTW- welcome back, Steefie)

T-nex · #10 05-11-2006, 11:39 AM

Well... It's become quite boring really... -_- Lots of members have left, and well... I think it's this laid back cos there aren't many here nemore.
Oh well.. ^_^

(Thanks Dark Elite) Every forum is different, so I guess the way these Oddworld forums are is it's way of being different. I guess it's because different topics attract different people...

Zeikio · #12 05-13-2006, 02:37 PM

Hmm looks like I returned at a good time.

But as they say, calm before the storm.... *slowly looks around*
