This forum seems to be made up of too many flame wars. I have participated in 1 or 2 already and already regret it. I would like to say that everyone here is an intelligent, literate human being, with a sense of humor and the majority can be sarcastic. This is just my perception, opinion whatever you would like to call it, but either way, flame wars are blatant disregarding of the rules in my opinion, the rules as I perceive them, shall we say. I guess all I'm saying is going to add up to the most horrible cliche that makes me want to kick someone ever... can't we all get along?

I whole heartedly agree with you Cheeseypie I think that the majority of us wish the Flamewars we did get in were not so stupid and such

Thank you bob, and thanks for adding to my statement. It is true even the flame wars we have are stupid.. it's frustrating and I would like to do as much as I possibly can to help out the whole forum to show that I am not worthless

well, all I can do is start out small. 1. refuse to participate in any flame wars 2. make people realise that it would be better without arguing 3. rally other people to refuse to participate in flame wars.
I will say this. I don't see it working well anytime soon but I think we can at least dent the problem if enough people agree...

I don't think they add color in any way, but to each his own I guess... I guess it's not really the spam anyways, as much as the flaming

SPAMMERS BEGONE!!!
I'm just damn sick of being sucked into these things. Any assholes out there can find a new person to start a flame war with, because I'm sick of your stupid games.
Yano what would help this forum? Report buttons. You see a flame/troll/spam/whatever, you hit the report button on that post. Then Recon gets a PM or e-mail or something that notifies him of the report. Then he can see the post and punish the offender.

I'll rally behind this cause.
I'm mainly tired of new comers who are 11 years old getting flamed out of here because they don't know forum rules.

11 year olds should be kicked out anyway. According to some law, if you're under 13 years of age, it is illegal to provide your e-mail address without parental consent. Or something like that. I'll find the official thing in a minute.
EDIT: Here it is. It's called COPPA. I found this on GameFAQs, and it's a good explination, so I shall quote them.
