After a superior amount of weeks now, I find myself complaining (Yet again.)

Ok, So I'll get started.

The past few months all I see is flame/flame/flame and I don't mean on the odd leechers/spammers/scammers I now see it in everyday general posts.

So I have came up with a conclusion that most haters should abide by: If you're going to hate - Don't post. You may be here thinking that this does not apply to you, but every member should abide by this personal motto.

It would make TTG so much better for myself/new users/other members.

Examples of what I see.

Thread title: Looking to find a 10th lobby.
Message body: Hey guys, I am looking for a 10th lobby, if you are hosting please message ______.
First reply: Dude, GTFO TTG

That may be the only example I will show as there are more, but if I was too list them all I would be here a long time.

So back to the initial thread.
If you see someone doing something wrong PM them and maybe explain to them in the message what they're doing wrong, a PM often helps more than a general reply.

More things.
Don't get mixed up with what I am saying.
If a member is breaking the rules (May know them may not) don't just assume that they're doing it on purpose. You will often find they're not.
If you see a member breaking the rules like I said before a PM will go further than a reply. But if you feel your reply is helpful maybe take this on-board: While replying to a spammer - Spamming is against the rules - Rules can be found here: "link goes here."
A scammer - if someone is scamming don't post, simply report the user who is a possible scammer, if a member of staff sees this, they will most likely follow it up with you via. PM.
A rep booster - if you suspect Rep boosting - PM a member of staff (Baring in mind telli is the only one who can reset rep > as far as my knowledge goes)
Mini-modding - Mini-modding isn't always that bad and can be mistaken for a helpful comment, if you notice something wrong with a reply maybe PM the original replier.
Flaming/hating - exactly what this thread is on about (mostly)
There are more - but most are obvious so I shall stop there.

Bottom line is - "If you're going to hate - don't post" you may not see what you're doing wrong, but believe me, it is pushing away a lot of members.
