Building a Community

^Mark Deez is the boss.

But, you don't acknowledge it. Could be for a couple of reasons:

1. Don't want to come off as snobby
2. Compliments are nice
3. Tell them what they want to hear

Am I close?

Huh? I dont get what you're asking.

 

[S O F I]

Well, back then, no one had digital cameras, and I didnt have a scanner. When I said I didnt want to post my photo on here, I didnt send it to other people either; Diaz does.

There is nothing wrong with showing your picture to only certain people.

Anyway, who gives a fuck about photos, thats not the point of the discussion. Photos dont make people assholes, although perhaps they may explain why someone is an asshole, but, they are still assholes, and thats the issue that needs to be dealt with. And no, I dont just mean Diaz.

Go 'get em, tiger!

Well, lol, I'd much rather have someone say something like: Amara I respect what you have to say than Amara, I like you coz of your pic.

Do you think other guys know this? Have you told them this? Then refer to my post.

See if people actually read anything I say they know it to be true. But it is nice to hear compliments but ultimately it would be better if people formed opinions of me (and everyone i guess) based on what i say not purely on whatever they might see (good or bad).

yah for real, as soon as i posted my sexxi-ass pics, all the ladies luved me and then the guys was like "dayum...that paisan is a pimp" so then they was all cool wit me and shit

on the real, this forum, like life, can never be a eutopia. there are people from all walks of life from all over the world that post here. as a result, at least a few people's views/culture/attitude/etc. will no doubt rub you the wrong way. that is what gives the forum it's character.

Aww come on, I was always nice to you - long before you ever posted a pic.

 

[Florida123]

hehe...yes, you were. can't argue with that. in fact, you make everyone (that deserves to) feel welcome, welcome.

 

[SiGh]

[Rukas]

I admit it, I only gave cardella the time of day after I saw he was hot

 

[S O F I]

^The other day, you had a plain signature. Now, it's back to your old one. Did you have the old one saved somewhere or something?

Nope.

Every suggestion Ive ever had to improve the board and appeal it more to the world out there has been eaten up and shitted out.

We simply don't give people a decent chance, hold grudges. So someone got banned 2 years ago for personal reasons, who is to say they haven't grown up abit? Even if their sense of humour is relatively the same.

I say sense of humour because thats the biggest problem, people's senses of humour on here collide. They dislike how other people come off when they are trying to be funny and entertaining and therefore more times then less the big "B" is given to them.

Y'all know what the 'B' is.

peace.

Unfortunately i don't think we can change peoples mentalities. People will disagree on certain issues, dislike certain members and like other members, just like real life. That for me, is what makes a forum so good. I disagree with the post count/join date argument too. The forums been going strong for so long it doesn't matter when you joined as we have good and bad posters from all "eras" just like we have good posters with under 1000 (Valeoz, nice post) who are good and posters with 7000 - 12 000 who are idiots, but once again, it's all opinion and perspective.

For example, Bank Robber comes across as a twat to me, lots of posts, early join date but there's plenty of people who like him and find him a good contributer. It's only the people who annoy the majority who are the problem. Thuggy has loads of posts early join date, never seems to post anything of substantial depth yet i dig his humour. Everyone plays a different role, it's just when that role is not wanted by the majority that it causes a problem.

[Jibster]

I know, just couldn't think of anyone with an early start date when i was making the post. :thumb:

I forgot about you within 3 seconds last night.

The real key to building a great community lies in the mortar. The recipe has to be just right, otherwise it'll disintegrate rapidly. Not too much water, mind you. Moderation is the key.

Stole? Dear sir, i beg to differ. The recipe has been in the posession of my family since 1685.
