And this gentlemen is why.
« on: January 13, 2003, 07:35:44 PM »
An email I recieved today.

Quote

Hi, I'm somewhat new to AH...which I love very much... Best game on the internet, by far.

But I have a Question... It seems like when someone post something on the BBS... They get Ripped big time by other members...... Is this Normal??? I have been in several BBS mainly sports ones....but nothing like this one.... It's so bad I don't want to post anymore.



This is why i'm clamping down.

The BBS (lately) has been kind of nostalgic.  We used to be pretty brutal on USENET back when the unwashed masses started invading our network and peeing in the pool.

Then again, I remember when ARPANET used NCP (Host to Host protocol) so I'm kind of an old timer.

Ah well.

Have at 'em HT  :)

Was that e-mail send any chance by this guy?

"The rest of the night was spent holding Kimberly and trying to calm her tears while Borg enjoyed himself at the banquet. Feeling very much locked in our cell we took a walk on the beach together, this was somewhat healing, the surf and sand managed to calm us down a bit."

If one person can’t understand jokes or can’t take flame, why is he playing competitive game? How sensitive must one person be to run to mommy (hitech) and cry that big boys don’t play nice.

Russion: It's not if a person can't take a joke. It's when it's get so out of hand it becomes the norm,infact it totaly cross the joke stage and gets plane abusive. Would you jump down some ones throut the first time you met the face to face. And if you did would you realy think it's there problem that they took offence?

Russian if just one took the time to e-mail hitech I bet there are 20 others in a month that feel the same way HTC never hear from.  Many of those just might close their account because of BB abuse.

You want to be part of the growth of HTC or part of the stagnancy?

I must be blind, I haven’t seen anyone get ripped unless they deserved it (which they did). Most just get small blisters but nothing major. If person approaches with idiocy and rudeness mixed with insults, they get flamed. If person asked normal question, they get normal answer. Simple rule to follow, No?

I hate to see HTC spend the resources policing the BBS and the game for malcontents but the rapid expansion of the game, and the resulting stress from overpopulation apparently requires it.

HT, sorry, but what took so long?
