To see what happens, am considering locking all in threads in the General Discussion ,for a week if any of the following apear.
1. Any flame of some ones post, not a counter discusion, but a flame. Also flame baits.
2. Any personal attacks.
3. A whine, not a suggest ,critisim or view, but the over the top stuff.
What do you guys think is it worth a try to see if it changes the general flavor?

as stated before, i like it, but think it shoudl go for a lot longer then 1 week.
just my 2¢
-
I think it would be cool HT..maybe tone some of the stuff down a bit.:)
-
What about trolling? Is it the same as flame baiting? Is this a troll, or an experiment?

I think it is abundantly clear that it already has.

Thanks for you support....

sadly, I see posts that are not taking the new ideas into consideration.
The newest post on the board violates the "rules" Hitech has suggested. I fear that some people are playing into the “let’s close the thread and get banned” group. Kind of a bummer on the thing if you ask me.
-
What about post with IN! in it?
-
I think I'm missing something. All 7 (so far) experiments appear to be the same. Is there a subliminal message? :D

Not subliminal at all, pretty overt indication that folks haven't got it yet if you ask me. Although I think #6 might have driven that home.

HT I think you're gonna be pretty busy and set yourself up as the bad cop (don't know if that bothers you or not, just be ready to not be thanked for you efforts, I suspect).
Also, if you get a minute, go back and check the Blammo's son thread. In the middle of a thread, where the vast majority of the respondants were trying to offer emotional support if nothing else, a couple of folks got frustrated and popped off. There was some baiting and name calling, sure, but I would hate to have seen that thread locked because a couple of folks were acting, well, jerky.
I think it would be a lot better if you could just lock out the jerky offender rather than the whole discussion, probably take even more effort than locking threads though. Would work sorta like PNG in that other sim though, punish the guilty party, not the community?
Just my 2 cents. It's your forum, so it's your rules. And just what is a poopyhead anyway?
MUD ;)

hmmm i go to the store for smokes and BAM 2 more threads locked. HT did you read my question in #5?
-
Only 2 has any merit. #1 and #3 are strictly subjective.
Criticism is a whine only when someone doesn't feel like reading it or perhaps, doesn't understand the subject.
A flame is only a flame when someone doesn't possess the tools or inclination to refute it.

WildCrd: This would be done in this form only. If it works the other forms, with the excepction of the O.C. which will have different standards.
The OC Should have a some what salty flavor.

It isn't that much work, because I read almost all threads anyway, locking them is about as much work as hitting the back button.
you sure your reading almost all threads? seems a couple of jewles have escaped your attention

That's good to hear, I completely agree. And that's why the O'Club goes so well with alcoholic beverages!

lol i hope im not the only nimrod who read all 8 posts by Hitech after finding that the first 4 were the same :D
lol I think Hitech has gone mad! Or is atleast trying to make a point.
I think it will work :)
Two thumbs up :aok :aok

Go OC!!! The OC ^%$&^#$@8*^^% kicks the other foums @^^&^T!
Hell yea it *&$##&&%@* them up!
:mad:

I am looking at the closed threads and where in particular I see Grimm post and then the thread is closed. Hitech you later explain that it wasnt Grimms post that caused the closure.
However when and if this new system is introduced wouldnt it be good to make one last post as to what the offended rule was and who caused it to be closed?
Sometimes it may not be clear to one as it was to another. You may not read the thread until several new posts have been made, then it could cause some confusion.

HiTech, In responce to this thread, I think your "test" would be well recieved to mostly all posters in this BBS. Sticking to THE subject posted with positive informative answers to questions posted about AHII would benefit new users and the seasoned veteran of HTC's fine product. If you associate with informative goodnatured people, you can only recipricate a great attitude back. That will snowball into the direction of more positive, more informative, and much more friendly AHII BBS.
Also I'm sure you noticed there is NO quote or huge tag line in my signature. This will also help shorten the post length and help make this BBS easier to read, I am proud to do my little part to help in your quest to steer your fine AHII BBS in the direction I believe you want it to go. I will also be adding your bribe page to my signature AND my webpage to help restock your fine scotch that your taste pallet desires.
Thank You in advance, For taking time out in your busy day to read and respond to this post.

I love the idea, it's getting really hard to discuss or debate anything that can be considered a "hot" topic in AH on these boards. The reason is these topics are divisive by nature. It is simply easier for those who disagree to flame and launch personal attacks than to formulate an insightfull counter-argument expressing their rationale for disagreement.

I posted this in the bogus experment #7 thread by mistake:
HT ... experment threads 4,5 and 6 were locked while I was back at work and I wasn't able to post in them that I wholeheartedly agree because it made perfect sense. Could you unlock them long enough for me to correct this and thereby have a perfect record?
-
OH!
BTW ...
I think this is a GREAT idea. It reflects the true genius of the author.

About time you got one locked Arlo.
