XVamp has noticed that I've been deleting posts made by the three (two) of us in some threads. For the record, I don't actually give a d[COLOR=lightgreen]a[/COLOR]mn (I'll compromise, Jesse) about what those posts say, this isn't out of anger or wanting to save face.
This is addressing a complaint that a lot of members have made whenever we argue. When we do, it's usually over pointless crap that no one, ourselves included, care about. It annoys people. So I now have a policy that whenever we're pretty much done with our faggotry I will permanently delete our posts and turn the thread to normal. This is reinforced by my other policy of trying to avoid that happening in the first place. This is better than thread splitting because, well, it's easier, permanent and irreversible. It's also a lot less obvious and doesn't fuel the fire of the retarded arguement somewhere else. Sure, you'll have less threads to ridicule me in, but I figure you have plenty of those in the wacko board anyway.
**** YOU VGC IS LAX WE DON'T ENFORCE RULES HERE STOP TRYING
ABUSE!
I have no problem with that.
I don't have a problem with it as long as it's not impossible for x, myself and you to have a "discussion"/take part in the thread without it getting deleted. Since, you know, us three are the main posters in the gaming board.
As long as "discussing" doesn't mean arguing for no apparent reason then it shouldn't be a problem.
If it has something to do with the thread I don't see the big deal.
More like unwarranted, not irrelevant.
Unwarranted sounds pretty subjective to me.
good thing it's humans making the decision then!
We're the worst species to make such a decision!

Name one intelligent discussion we have ever had ever. I give this thread 5 more posts before it devolves.
Until you can prove that, I'm killing everything.
Why does it have to be intelligent exactly? As long as it's not disruptive I don't see a reason why it's a big deal. Why don't you just not reply to us or delete your own posts and let everyone else carry on?
[LEFT]Guessing this was moved out of the Mod board.
Why delete posts? Unless they're spam bull**** (some of them were, granted, but not all), I don't see what problem they present. People will scroll past them, I know I do sometimes.
[/LEFT]
Yeah, I moved it. Seems like it'd be a good idea for everyone to see it.

Because if it's not an intelligent discussion it's a long-winded, stupid one that pisses everyone off. I could delete just my posts, but, you know, that's kind of unfair. 3 pages on the end of a thread of you talking to yourself would be really stupid anyway, what's wrong with you?
Then don't reply! Easy.
People got annoyed? Huh, I actually kind of liked reading them.
You ****ing babies, you have no idea of what a forum is, and don't move your ****ing idiotic threads to WAckO University moron censors, just delete the **** so you do not ruin that forum with your post altering and moronic forum administration !!!
Get a life kids and quit your ****ing censorship !!
You would all be fired if you worked for me, just as moron Jexxie was and is !!!
what happened to locking threads?
[quote=Vampiro V. Empire;880520]Then don't reply! Easy.
I'm assuming we will always argue. You are apparantly too dense to notice this.
I'm not the one with the problem. Heed your own advice and avoid getting into arguments in the first place.
lol.
Asking some one to not reply is like asking for your opinion to be regarded as fact so it's not debated.
Hmm, maybe you should just have better opinions?
I think the point was more 'if you dont want arguments then dont reply in the first place'.
Which is the same as saying 'don't disagree with me.' Kind of childish to argue about who gets the last word in.
Yeah, like the constant arguing is 100% my fault. Why not stop yourself from repying to me? Christ you're stupid, this is basic logic here.
Like I said, he's the one that seems to care. If he sees it turning into an argument just don't bother. Otherwise, guess what's going to happen? He's going to argue, get fed up and delete all the posts anyways.
Yeah, makes tons of sense that.
That's stupid. Shouldn't have to ignore something because you disagree with it and the other person isn't going to fall back. Ideally you should argue until one of you prove yourselves completely right, but you guys wind up being unable to do that too, so might as well get rid of pointless back and forth for the other members' sake while still expressing your thoughts.
Hahaha, now THAT'S stupid.
you're all faggots.
ant has spoken.
Ant complained all the time. Lots of people did.
Delete this thread. I think it's annoying.
LoS clearly hasn't read a typical Speedy vs Vamp argument in the gaming boards. It has nothing to do with discussion, if anything it kind of puts a halt on it.
It wasn't that difficult to scroll passed... You know you can do that, right?
how about deleting the 29 threads that all derailed into Metal Gear Solid? That put a hault in quite a few discussions while being just as annoying.
hey guys vgc is full of ****ty meme posting, remember we used to have discussion
hey guys stop getting into arguments its annoying
hey guys stop having opinions, thats my opinion on this matter
if you want to blow it out of proportion it's fine, but I don't think it's going to change anything. :D
*** **** it i'll post whatever i like *****, why dont you shut the **** up
if you dont like it just delete this post
How perfectly executed. You admitted to having no problem with it, then dragged it out to here and pretend to enjoy pages and pages of pointless shit between us to make me look stupid. Unless you really do like inane arguements and jack off over wasting someone else's time.
You're a fucking loser, kid. I can't imagine what you get out of coming here.
MY SOCKS HAVE HOLES IN THEM
above post annoys me, delete it
e: might as well delete this one too, dont want it to look like i'm talking to myself
vgc annoys me. delete the whole thing.
So you're deleting them all to make you not look stupid (BUTTON PRESS). Got it. Carry on. Go ahead and delete VGC history.
INTERNET ARGUMENTS
Netman called me an interlooper one time, which haulted my discussion about stuff. You should delete that one, too.
I'm not entirely against deleting posts I don't like.
As long as it's just the ones I don't like.
(I would that my reasoning was sequential and cohesive, but it is as if my logic was rent asunder by the subtlest of shinobi)
KLARTH HAS SPOKEN
I don't know who that is.
I thought anyone who registered after '03 was trivial...
[quote=netman;880657]
Look what you pricks have reduced me to. Turning tricks with the trivial. Not even trolling anymore. Christ.
I think you're overrated.
Really? I feel underrated, to be honest!
[quote=Iris;880678]Really? I feel underrated, to be honest!
You're rated just right.
Klarth is overrated because he can't fix VGC with his sly remarks and disgust about everyone. Now he *****es about how everyone else ****ed it up for him. Terrible troll.
I still occasionally delete Klarth posts and I've banned him a few times. I still like him though!
the trolling is strong with this thread...
...join us on the troll side of the boards
[IMG]http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/emot-munch.gif[/IMG]
[quote]Terrible troll.
Internet trolls try to incense people, or mislead them. I'm not doing either anymore. I take pride in raising awareness of VGC's bigger-than-ever cretin contingent.

Too bad you're terrible at that too.
i'd rate klarth a 8/10
this netman guys a faggot though
willisgreeny please stop
Yeah, shouldn't give him anymore oppurtunities to retaliate. It's too pathetic to watch how unclever the ****ant has become.
has become? How'd you know him from before? :x
I was giving the benafit of the doubt he had been better when he was actually trolling.
Oh come on now.
Oh, well...
No, he's better now than as a troll! Though, I personally enjoys dicks more than trolls anyways.
speedfreak, these are the posts you should be deleting *** **** it
X makes no good posts, infract him.
only an iris deals in absolutes
LOOK AT THIS, INFIGHTING EVERYWHERE
VAMP HAS BRED A CIVIL WAR WITHIN OUR VERY WALLS
I make the worst posts on VGC and Jesse infracts me, on average, once a week or so. Also he keeps deleting my various signatures. The last one went because it contained the word "shiteyes". Isn't that a shame.
Infractions for everybody! Everybody. Ever.
I was hoping the trend would continue until Speedy deleted it, but NOPE!
Oh yeah [size=1000]JESSE SMITH IS A MORMON[/SIZE]
Where are the [blink] and [marquee] tags when you need them.
btw, benefit should have an a.
[quote=The X;880739]LOOK AT THIS, INFIGHTING EVERYWHERE
VAMP HAS BRED A CIVIL WAR WITHIN OUR VERY WALLS
I'd definitely be a confederate.
the best part is that hes not even touching this **** anymore
i also love the fact that the people that are doing most of the whining here are the same ones that try to act like they're above this. Theres a pretty easy way to prove that you're above this: dont take part. With nobody to argue against, the people that are whining will have nothing do to. Bam, dead thread.
Face it, everyone here loses.
I meant as in the whole conversation, not just you.
[quote]
Face it, everyone here loses.
Yeah except me.
I don't usually call anyone anything unless theres a bigger reason for it. This one should be obvious, considering how many posts it involved.
Wow, I have never had any problems with Iris or [URL="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/%20advocated"]advocated[/URL] having her fired in the past for her censorship and post altering actions !! :rolleyes:
This is why I love VGC. It gives me five minutes of entertainment in between long periods of boredom.
You've been reading Iris's posts way too long man, put her on ignore and something happens.....
No more boredom !!! :eek:
I just glaze them over anyway
This thread is jaw-droppingly stupid.
"Hey, I'm gonna delete stupid, irrelevant arguments!"
"NO PLZ DONT"
"**** YOU"
"plz delete my comment SARCASM TAG"
"JUST DON'T REPLY TO MY POSTS OR I'LL ARGUE BECAUSE I'M AN IMMATURE *******"
"yeah what a blowhard"
"You could consider locking the threads. (USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)"
"THATS IT IM GONNA DELETE YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU"
Petty, ****ty arguments get you banned on some forums. Grow up already.
I'd say I won this internet argument on the internet
"JUST DON'T REPLY TO MY POSTS OR I'LL ARGUE BECAUSE I'M AN IMMATURE *******"
Thats kinda missing the point. I enjoy a bit of an argument every now and then because im a contrary *******. They dont. Thats, fine, i understand that. But if they dont want to argue... uh, dont? Hell, look at this thread as a perfect example. They stopped posting, either because they were bored, they took the advice, or they had better **** to do. But regardless of why, it was dead until you bumped it.
Immature? Maybe, but nobody is 100% grown up all the time.
Effective? You bet.
I was actually poking fun at something Speedy said, which made it sound like he's going to keep replying no matter how stupid the argument. That is immature.
I DISAGREE FOR NO REASON OTHER THAN ME BEING BORED.
Just so you know, member numbers don't really mean anything, because the people who have low ones (mine's 55) just means that's how fast you were to re-register after the upgrade to vb3.
As for why he's generally disliked: he has whined and moaned about things for as long as he has been here. And for a 22 year old, he doesn't seem all that sharp, either. Nobody is obligated to like the guy, and none of the stuff you've said about him is very compelling.
Great 5,000th post MissedOut !!! :rolleyes:
Believe me, I know first hand what a bunch of morons reside on this forum, you don't need to teach me about it, in addition I don't need MaxMouse to educate me on these facts, his case simply confirms what I discovered the first day I was here.
Now stay in school, you may be able to teach me something one day.
Remember, we are divorced, so you need to try to stay in my Good graces so that one day we will have another chance !! :eek:
Iris is saying that I lack tact for moving this thread out into the public.
tact
lol
mod board should be public anyway
nothing happens there anyways, except the few times like this.
large portion of mod board threads i've seen seem to have X bashing in them
super gay
Not really. At all. This one and the replacement of this thread are the only two.
XVAMP
THEY ARE THE SAME PERSON RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
We're the new DA, dude. Or the new 4chan. Which ever.
reserving domain name xvamp.net
also, i like how wackohater pretty much killed this thread with his presence
Like every other thread he enters.
you know your argument is irrelevant when a jesse smith gimmick enters the fray
Happens every time a mod thread gets moved to the main boards.
Hey, X. Let's change our names to XVamp and VampX
How about XVampArseKissers ?? :mad: :mad: :mad:
Sure
it's my new goal to kill every thread i post in.
starting now
Hmmmm...any one remember why Admiral Anthrax was de-moded!!! :D Wasn't it from just deleting a few posts or threads!!! *Is trying to generate more drama!!!!*
er, it's OK for me and all da mods to edit your posts!!! That's party of our job!!!! Driving you insane is every ones job!!!!! Remember, it's a sign of friendship!!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D
No, it's a chance to show the world that you are MORONS WHO DO NOT VALUE CLASSIC CONTENT AND THAT YOU ARE IDIOTS WHO WILL DESTROY THIS CHICKEN **** FORUM EVEN FURTHER !!!
er, define dead!!!! You own Forum Posters Graveyard that has a measly 23,761 posts, and over half come from..one freak...and here there's a member that has made more posts than all posts there combined, Vampiro V. Empire with 27,709 high quality posts!!! :D:D:D:D
That's sad when over half da posts on a forum is made by one person, er one freak!!!! :D:D:D:D Maybe you should stop scaring every one away from your graveyard by not banning half da internet!!!! :D:D:D:D
I've just learned that if Speedy, X, or Vamp are posting, skip over their posts and let them have their discussions. I don't see the point in deleting them because (1) you're posting in a forum and we all have say, so if somebody wants to jump in and take part in the discussion, let them, (2) although the topics discussed rarely have anything to do with the thread, they can still hold useful information for others to "accidentally" come across, and (3) it's a complete waste of time to delete a lot of them when you could be clipping out more important, i.e. "I agree," posts, "I hate (insert noun here)," and so forth.
I like this guy.
skitzo control i like you man
dont skip over my post this one time so you can read that
[quote=Skitzo Control;881629](3) it's a complete waste of time to delete a lot of them when you could be clipping out more important, i.e. "I agree," posts, "I hate (insert noun here)," and so forth.
psst, they ***** about deleting those too.
pssssst
so do you
It's not like any post around here even deserves to be deleted. Since when do we have standards of posting when I comes to non-newbies?
psst, I just felt like saying "psst"
point made
[quote=The X;881785]pssssst
so do you
no I don't, I'm often times the one who wants them deleted, but I don't feel like going through drama.
also, we don't really have standards for the oldies, which we should. It's just that things like this happen when any form of content is deleted, be it porn, spam, or most anything else. Why bother enforcing posting standards if the posters get angry about it? Apparently VGC is required to be lax and forgiving when it benefits certain people. I suppose that's the foundation of WoN, right?
It's a nice middleground forum as far as serious posting goes. I KNOW I LIKE IT!
p.s. psst you smell
speedfreak- I don't understand his posts half the time, is he sarcastic or just really p*issed all the time... your so much cooler on live and when you do you American impersonation "Give me that dem dur cheeeese burger" He knows his games in my book he has my respect.
vamp- replays to everything, kinda annoying seeing his posts rape the boards... because this place is so inactive.... he belongs on the something awful boards.... his post count is higher than his 360 achievement score, that baffles me, he lives a stone throw away from me... hopefully gonna run into him at a concert (guess we have been at a few of the same shows but never met up) and put the boots to him or play him in rock, paper, scissor, shoot... either way i am content!!
posting a lot in an inactive forum is bad? :confused:
Imagine if it was Roger's post count.

Screw deleting posts, delete the entire forum !!!!
Cleaning up the forums also involves taking posts down that are already indexed in Google, when you take them down after the fact this also hurts the traffic the forums get.
So unless you take stuff down that is offensive or negative quickly, most of the time you should leave it there.
Mod's should instead focus on taking down stuff kids should not read since this forum is for kids, but I see things here that would not be allowed to be posted on the worst adult forums.
