They being the moderators. Did you do anything that broke the rules in that topic, Geo?

Not that i know of. we changed the name to somthing more fitting then the old 'need help with avatar (DAM THING!)' to 'Avatar topic and other stuff!' Purno was in there aswell, it might b worth asking him if he knows anything. and so was a mate of mine who posted all his post's so far in there. now on his profile, says he has 4 posts, but none can b found! (geo.c Jumond) :(

its a shame, it was a great topic, y would anyone want 2 get rid of it... unlesss some 1 has a grudge against me :? :wink: :? :P

eh? o thanks 4 telling me :x
y wasnt i givin a warning? i could have sorted out that problem! give me a good reason. what rule?? :x

Edit:

just looking at the rules. i dont remember anything rules being broken, unless you ment some one else had broken a rule.

im waiting to hear what rule was broken, and if there was one, why wasnt it aloud to be corrected?

It was rather a spammy topic.

It was completely useless, after you changed the topic to say it was 'THE avatar topic' it was even more useless, amongst other things I can't seem to think of right now. (I am a bit busy atm)

Note that the new rules, which still haven't yet been officially "published" (must convert to bbcode and do that!) are here.

well the forum rules topic i was looking at didnt seem to say that any thing was wrong with the topic.
no offence, but saying the topic was 'usless' is a bad excuse. sorry but it is. it wasnt usless, as there were many people talking on it. so how can it be usless. go on there, talk bout what your avatars might be like etc. so what was actually wrong with it? :wink:

the topic was useless ... it was only your (1st) post there ...
and topics about someone's postcounts (including yourselves) is useless and may only lead to warning

Oh yeah,... I remember the 'look-at-my-postcount' topics of about 2 years ago :D

what about the 1st post? i edited it the other day to make it look a bit more catchy. theres nothing worng with that is there? because i dont see anything in the rules about it.

As far as I am conserned, Geo should have been given a warning....
But a warning that his thread is beeing considered "useless" and will be closed soon or at least that it was deleted.

now that's what I consider "fair-play"

im actually quite upset bout that topic being shut without warning. because i was getting to chat to people in a nice way about off-topic stuff, and the fact that it was where some of my friends had there posts makes me think that it might aswell have been kept open!
and by the way. you call my topic usless, what do you do with all the other topics that become 'out of date' or not needed any more? i feel as if im being 'picked on' :( :cry: :( . mainly because theres many other topics around that are not used or 'usless' as you might say. but there still there

The whole "yay, my ..th post" was probably too far
Don't do that anymore
And I don't much like "clans", we're supposed to be one big family

Oh just say please and you might get that topic back :P

whats that surpose to mean? we wernt advertising the clan or anything there. its a way of being a noticed as a group. (if you get the idea of that)
spaceman-spiff wrote:Oh just say please and you might get that topic back
is that possible? i thought it would have been permanatly deleted. if i had some warning of what was wrong, i would have sorted the problem out (well, only by editing my own messages really, but that might have been the problem, was it?)

Let's just put it like this:
  1. It was not a very funny joke (I didn't laugh, at least)
  2. It had too many smilies to not be irritated by it
  3. It had an attachment that was completely useless
  4. Your excuse saying 'the colors are messed up, can someone help me with that' was complete bs because it was quite obviously an edited pic. (and, if that was a joke as well, then please refer to point 1 for my reaction to it)
  5. It is pretty common for forums not to like posts that are just posted to say 'xxth post, woo'.
