Trolling and stupid, immature posts.

Click to View Content

I recently posted on a topic asking "Do Microsoft sell flashed xbox's?"

Now, I would say that 95% of the replies were- "Are you stupid, obviously not :facepalm: "
Not only have you responded in the most stupid and immature manner, you have set a bad example on the website. You need to answer properly, and thoroughly, and even if you answer is wrong, you have taken the time to write something which could be up to 200% longer than the other people. It makes you stand out from the rest of the "crowd" , and staff will notice that. In case you're wondering, this is my response to the topic:

Asking questions that could be found on the net.

This is very annoying. Not so long ago, I saw a post asking where to get 8.5GB Duel Layer disks. It would take 5 seconds to find that on Google, and again, you would get a better response to most people on here. You are creating un necessary posts, which then cause the staff to look at yours, when there could be something to do with pornography (Just an example).

Always Google something you don't know, and then post if you cannot find anything.

Spamming the Introduce section, as well as the GFX section with "Rate my (blah blah blah) topics".

It happens all the time. You see people post exactly the same thing over and over again, post after post, even worse in the introduce yourself section. The other day, the same person had posted on 5 different "Hi my name is" topics, with the same thing, and it was something along the lines of- Hi, welcome. Read the rules and stay active.

It's O.K. of you do it every now and then, but if you do it 24/7, it's spam. It's post count boosting, and as you all know, it's against the rules.

It's also very common in the GFX section (I know many people don't like it being called that). The other day, I asked how good was the signature and avatar I made, and I don't think that any of the replies were constructive, i.e. told me what I could have improved on. All I got was "Good mate, keep up the good work". I have recently posted a long(ish) topic in the Technology section about all the best technology on the market today, and one of the comments I received was this-

Amazing. I was gobsmacked, I didn't think anyone had the potential to write that sort of reply, after what I had seen that day. It was perfect. He told me what he thinks I should add, and gave me some ideas, with positive and negative feedback. Without hesitation, I +repped him. That is a very good example of a constructive reply.

That doesn't mean to say that you can say "This is bad, so is this this and this". No. Tell them what is wrong, and how to improve, and tell them what is good about it.

People moaning about people "spamming".

I see trollestia (I think that's the account name) get so much abuse, because of how many posts he gets. I went through his whole previous months of posts, and I reckon, that 99% of those weren't spam. They might not have been useful, but they certainly weren't spam. If he is active, and gets 1K posts in a week, so be it. Remember how many words he must have written, and like he said, it isn't that hard. If I hadn't made this topic, I could easily have posted 30 times. Maybe more. What the Rants should be about is "Un-useful members". Because, sorry, trollestia isn't.

When I can think of more things to write about, I will add them to the post.

Wait, in the 1st post you asked a stupid question. I'm hardly surprised people flamed you. Microsoft moderators ban people with flashed xbox's, why would they sell them. And your 2nd rant is people asking questions that could be found on the net.

So why didn't you google do microsoft sell flashed xboxes?

:facepalm: moment? I think so.

Also, to add to the facepalm, in your third rant you ranted about GFX artists wanting feedback on their work, then moaned about spamming. Whats yuour 4th rant about? People who moan about spammers.

Were you actually on drugs when you wrote this?

(I'll quote incase you edit out your stupidity)
