How about no stupid "1.08 is out" trolls?
« on: August 23, 2001, 06:07:00 AM »
Each time a new version is anticipated, we get a few juvenile trolls with the "Its out", or "Wow, vers 1.xx rocks" etc. headers.  I don't know why, I suppose its just me, but after seeing this about 40 times now, its getting old.

It would be nice if guys could refrain from doing this for a change.

The most simple solution to not falling for those trolls are to look at the News and Announcements section.  If something new comes out, we immediately post about it officially there.

For those that wonder, no I don't fall for the trolls.  When a version is released, it is obvious, there are multiple posts started about it right away.  These are good because we can learn about the new changes and how they are being received.  

So, no Pop, no sore lip.  Haven't fallen for such lame threads in a long time.   Just kinda tired of seeing guys try them. (Same goes for the "I quit" etc kinda threads, very lame)

I keep hoping the BB will provide more interesting threads.  Seems alot of the same lately, mostly with about the same 6 guys.

Hmm, I guess the release made this thread somewhat obsolete right away...

Cheers,

Now that was funny FT.

Humor, I like it.

Oh yeah, I hate Mariah Carey too.
