just make your own forum and disable registrations.

there, happy biohazzard.

I am admin/moderator on other forums, it doesn't make me happy there either.

But I'd have fun whipping this place into shape.

The way I see it, if people cannot be bothered to type the whole sentence out then I cannot be bothered to read it.

Swearing is against the rules too.

I got a thick ear for saying it as a kid so I count is as such.

Totally disagree. With ':/', which I use often, its representing a dissapointed, suprised or disagreeing negative reaction to a post.

tl;dr means absolutely nothing other than 'look at me troll'.

:/ on it's own is no better than tl;dr

English Tuesday to fridge.

You were lucky.

I got one for saying bum.

Gilly · 24 Jul 2008 at 20:14

Neither of which are applicable here

I'm going to start banning folk for posting nothing more than this in threads

What do you mean with ''nothing more'' ? I mean I often don't read the whole thread but post because I want to reply to a single post of one person.

I mean simply responding with:

Can't say I've noticed these types of replies... just ''tl:dr''...
But then I only come to GD when I'm bored and that's mostly during the night... And when I do, I only read the interesting threads...

Morba · 24 Jul 2008 at 21:22

tl;dr!!!!
now i get it!

another ***** internet fad.

Yeah if tl;dr is banned then :/ should DEFINITELY be banned as it's almost identical. Just spam without a meaning, but gilly uses it a lot so no chance.

But this is posted when you read a thread and are unimpressed. Not when yopu don't read a thread, but post anyway.

Rebelius · 24 Jul 2008 at 22:54

tl;dr.

I hate people that do that too.
