allinbluff35 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 I love this forum, but I agree with the OP. Not one serious response. 90% of you are censored and probably Americanwell thought out, I'm glad that there isn't a forum specifically for STRATEGY ADVICE. Better get to bed, short bus comes rather early in the morning. Link to post Share on other sites

jayistheman 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Can we get the dancing lock in aisle three please?I didn't read the thread, and its probably not even worth it...but I think that the REAL problem at this forum is that people crave censorship for some reason. I never saw censorship as a good thing, and I really don't see how anyone does. I guess i'm just a rare libertarian amongst a bunch of fundies. Link to post Share on other sites

SilentSnow 1 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 well the problem with your problem is that there is no solution.given that this is anonymous people posting on the internet, youronly 2 choices are allowing a$$holes, or heavy censorship.this forum for the most part has chosen the allowing option, and i think most people that post here would agree with that.

jayistheman 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 I'm not saying that moderation isn't necessary. I feel that a minimal amount, however (i.e. the earlier days of this forum) is much better. I would definately say that when people are flat out begging for regulation in every thread, that it is more than minimal.I think its really an inherent flaw in online communities, which have no population boundaries. For a forum to remain useful, with minimal regulation, the amount of members would have to be restricted... and then we go back to the idea of too much restriction again.its quite a paradox.I'm really just bitching because I don't like when people beg to be censored...

jayistheman 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 On second thought, custom, I'd say that NWP serves its purpose quite well. It is meant to be just what it is... a circus.RGP, on the other hand, could greatly benefit from separate forums. A "spouting off" style area, separated from strategy, and fanboy forums (which are often combined in General here) would cut back on the noise significantly. Link to post Share on other sites

moneypulator 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Ego, it's dripping everywhere. You people have a lot of growing up to do.One thread with a guy stating his opinion gets flooded with one sentence responses like "you're stupid", "STFU newb" and so on. It's impossible to even read a thread in this forum without getting censored like this. This forum is one big pis.sing contest. Most people don't have a mind for themselves, and nobody gets respect without saying off the wall stuff like "I put mayonaise on my dogs balls". There's an inner circle of people who immediately flame people, without giving someone an opposing point of view in an intelligent way.More later, I would say discuss..but I'll get 4 flames in 30 seconds. If i wanted to read censored, I would go to recpoker. Atleast they give semi-intelligent replies.STFU NEWB...wait you have more post than me........................................................im sorry you are right..how dare people express their opinion in a public forum...get a sense of humor you....i forgot to mention....."I put mayonaise on my cats balls".

DrawingDeadInDM 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 The problem with this forum is....the average age.Not for any reason other than most people here have a very serious probably taking criticism and having a rational thought or debate. They simply can't have a conversation about much of anything with someone who doesn't expressly agree with them. Which is probably why a lot of flames get whittled down to "STFU Newb" instead of, "Well, if you had looked at the situation a little more closely..."A few things.. It's mainly all the vets that think there some bad arrrse poker players. They reside in strategy and a laughable at best. I don't even lurk in strategy cause i think most of them are a joke. remember, i said most, not all.You know, this bothers me. You're the one person on this forum, other than maybe Teneight, who runs off at the mouth about how great you are. I have no doubts that you're a good poker player. I have doubts that your condescending attitude allows for any kind of real conversation about the help you did offer. As for strategy being a joke--laughable. No, it's not 2+2. And No, a lot of it isn't the most advanced plays from the 50/100 NL games, but there's a lot of valuable conversation going on there. I take it personal that you attack the strat sections, when personally, I've spent so much time trying to breath life into the NLHE strat section.Look around at all the Categories for the forum, There is no need for a General forum so that's what it has actually become, useless.I agree. God, how I wish we could get rid of the General Forum. There's a reason peope don't post in most of the other forums. They immediately click on the first one they see.
