Stop it. This is a serious thread.

What's the law on "+1" posts? Not a fan of them myself.
PK!

Is this as serious as the Killa_Ken thread....? I wasn't quite sure what happened in that thread, but lots of people got permabanned or something... followed by panda's and homo jokes.
I know not of which thread you speak.
I actually support the banning of all these things, let's go nuts.

Could there be a list somewhere of every one of these abbreviations we can or can't post?

Except some of them are still PermaBanned.No, it's nothing like that. I will actually ban people for this

I banned people too. However the majority were unbanned and the bans just served as a warning.
add me to msn so that I can fill you in

If that goes, then quoting someone and not typing anything has to go too.
+1 means agreeing with someone, just the same as quoting them, only reason people ant it banned is because they don't like "1337 sPeAK" (I don't like it, but I'm fine with "+1").
Those that I felt deserved it will be left permabanned until further notice.
It might do if you quote something or it's obvious what you're +1ing, but the majority of the time, it's just spam for the sake of post count.
Haven't really noticed the massive trend but I'm not complaining.

I don't mind the quoting and run rule or the +1 either because sometimes it's useful. Very rarely in GD, but if a hardware suggestion was made it perhaps lends weight to the first valid reply and helps reassure the OP a bit more.
E.g.
OP "What graphics card plz?"
1) "[This one]"
OP : "Hmm...really?"
2) +1
3) +1
OP : "Cheers"..
Obviously eighty of such replies is a joke but I can kind of see where it'll be useful.
I agree with the tl:dr thing. It doesn't add anything whatsover to a thread.

Another forum I frequent has a system for this, you can "+1" a post, and it adds your name to a last at the bottom of that post. It's a bit like a rep system, only it keeps no score, and you can't "-1".
