Something came to my mind

[11225]

I can understand if this topic isn't good (then again it just came to me recently), but while I was out in my training program..there were 2 things that got me curious.

First of all, for some reason...I'm quite aware that there were probably countless of user that are banned (excluding some spammers)...but I had to wonder what are their reason to get themselves banned from this site...so in my head...were the list of users being banned for a reason...weather it's temporarely or permanent. Funny, but that's what got me so curiously about that.

Secondly, this may be stupid, but in the chatroom, there was one person that seems to be so hooked up with tickling and feet...if there was someone not talking about any of he/she would rudely tell that person to leave (not gonna say who for the sake of trust and less troublesome). So I had to ask to some people here...whenever you decided to visit the chatroom in this site do you think the room sould only have a topic about feet and tickling? Or there should be almost any type of conversation that's appropriate to most people if not all? I have my own answer but I had to know in your opinion.


Well that's all that came into my mind...I'm ok if no one answered those question, but I'd appreciate it if you do. ^_^

I don't see any mandates stating that there has to be a certain conversational theme. Until there is such a mandate, I'm going to keep talking about zombies, science, and inappropriate relations between chimps and frogs.

I did notice this rule, however:

We take the "be polite" rule very seriously! We do not tolerate any rudeness. Any member who is intentionally unpleasant or disruptive will receive one warning (at our discretion). And if the member offends again the member will be banned without warning. This goes for private messaging as well.

I think it's safe to say it applies to the chat room.

Or just about anywhere...to be precise...

@ PurpleStyle: Zombies and science stuff I won't mind...relationship about a chimp and a frog....that's a good one. XD

@Candis19: True enough. Anywhere in site has to be polite...or it'll be a disaster.

In terms of the banned people I think that'd really just consist of the creepers that way out of hand and maybe the occasional troll.

As for the chatroom there's no set discussion as to what goes on there.
If this person had such a problem with it she shoulda just left. Whoever you are, sorry but that's not how it works, the chat topic is directed purely by the users, so it can be anything. I've had some fantastic off topic from tickling conversations in there be they humerous or intellectual.

That's exactly what I'm talking about. I sometimes think off topic from tickling, so I can be sure not to creep or freak some people out, just by thinking of one thing. It only shows that you're obsess with it and sometimes it can be a bad impression to others, because eventually, they will leave you and no one wants that, right?

That's why...if I ever return to the chatroom, I'd b silent, but if necesary I'd put a small detail of what I'm doing or what came to my mind as long as it match their though or what they are familiar of, or even make it interesting to talk about. So Jack, your words actually nailed it pretty good.

Ive noticed a lot of spam post lately, mainly for Nike shoes and Kobe Bryant, most of the bans are probably duplicate accounts used for spamming.

Chat rooms are still around?
Next time the person(s) starts acting like a chat room "dictator" PM the admin.

That's correct -- most of the banned accounts are spambots. A few were duplicate accounts, trolls, or underage users.

Definitely. Please include screenshots when reporting chat room misconduct.

I think we should have our own screenshot tutorial for things like the chatroom, as it may not be the obvious function for some people. I think this will suffice for now.

Well, when i come into the chatroom i sometimes like to talk about music and tickling of course or even science as i have talked with purplestyle many times about in the chatroom which is interesting to me but i think aslong as no one is being mean to anyone or telling them to leave just because they aren't talking about tickling then anything is cool to talk about.

That's a smart idea. Why didn't I think of that sooner?

Hmmm...sounds good to me. Seldomly if I have to I'd press PRTSC (Print screen) to copy what it is shown, then open "paint" program--I still have it-- to paste it there. Then save it as a certain format of a picture.

Upgrade your browser. IE is full of security holes. xD

 

[11225]

I'll try, but it seems that it's up-to-date to me. ^^

True -- for example, see http://www.webdevout.net/ie-is-dangerous

Firefox users can add a screenshot extension which allows one-step saving of full webpages or selected parts of the page. It's free at www.screengrab.org

 

[11225]

Hmm...I see...I never thought of it this way. It'll be tough for me to get used to a new site surfing software...but if it's serious...I'll do it. ^_^

 

[PurpleStyle]

It'll be even tougher surfing the internet when your computer is bogged down by all sorts of nasty malware. It is likely more serious than you think.

 

[11225]

That's understandable...from now on, I'll use Firefox. Come to think of it...I'm using it as we speak now. 🙂
