Can we please change the rule for posting on the battlegrounds forum.

Lets be reasonable here, the forums here are for battleground "DISCUSSIONS". But hardly any actual discussions about events, questions and general pondering of how certain battles went just doesnt seem to happen anymore. All u seem to get now is a thread like this

FAO : Random Warlock

OMFG WARLOCKS SUCHZ NOOBZ , FOAD IRL IDIOT <NAME> U AND URE LOSERR BUDDIES GET SOME SKILLS NOT ZERG ME ONE ON ONE ON MB FOR 5 TIMES, ALL LOKS RETARDS... etc

These personal attacks on people or certain groups are filling up the discussions pages with useless spam which is only used as flamebait most of the time or for some place for someone to cry when they get killed. The battlegrounds were designed as a small starter rvr for people to learn thier classes skils vs other classes and see how they play but some people take things far to seriously.

Imo as with the Gratz threads on RvR discussions it would be nice if you could bring in some sort of penalty for people posting personal attacks against others and useless spam. Yes i realise that freedom of speech is a wonderful thing , but why use your freedom to post things that have no real relevance or are of no interest.

Well just an idea tbh. And yes i myself have been guilty of the occasional FAO in the past <Realm based though not personal <cept the time i got banned for telling that vamp to foad in rl but that was real rvr lol >, but ive learnt from my lessons>

take advantage of the Rep counter, the scales just under your avatar, but yeah i agree with that the forums are (have been for a while) filling up with, FOA lame solo killing group, or your realms just a bunch of zerging noobs, or FOA of adding so and so.

We're keeping an eye on how things develop and taking action to make things as constructive as possible... we may be doing the cluster change this weekend if Deebs and I have time also;)

It has been like this since Barrysworld - once the game got to a certain age everyone basically knows the mechanics so all thats left to discuss is who's more l33t!

To a certain extent this is unavoidable in a pvp game - I think its good people have somewhere to come and vent - stops em kicking the cat :)

You want a poem in this topic? I wroted one the other day about boredom. Quite good I thought. Am not so bored now. No DAOC. Done enough of it. Fought zillions of peeps and must have won 99% of them battles. Sorry but I can't see you fighting Thugs in Thid again. My fame and vids live on though. Anyways - poems. Wroted loads to do with DOAC and to be honest I suppose this boredom one is cos I don't play DAOC now so it partly to blame for my 'boredom' - or was. Ain't bored now though cos I got goals again - become a shit hot guitar player (am improving like no tomorrow) - make my bloody website work (not so sure about this one - probably bin it soon) - and train for a marathon. Goals. Here is me 'boredom' poem. You 2 could become good at poem writing if you practise. Practise see is the word you really need in DAOC. Tis wot I did over and over till I was near perfection. Then I did battle and not before.

My awesome poem about 'Boredom'.

I am bored - so bored - bored bored bored
Sos I am writing this to break the monotony cos I so bored bored bored
I past caring if it rhymes cos I so bloody bored bored bored
I just gotta find something to make life interesting - you know why?
Cos I so bored bored bored.

(you know this could make a good song never mind a poem)

I gets up in the morning full of expectancy
I puts my pants on to cover my humanity
I puts my Ilyama monitor on to connect with the world in all it's glory (22 incher - model MA203DT - nice bit of kit)
And everything appears to go swimmingly
But hell comes the evening and I so bored bored bored.
I just bloody bored (end of poem).

Another cracker from Thugs :) .

Am posting this cos most of the time Freddy's Prydwen Battleground suffers badly from any energy. Sos I am attempting to transfer some of my energy to this board too. My energy is wot keeps Freddy's Prydwen Battlegrounds alive. Without me there wouldn't be any Freddy's Prydwen Battlegrounds. They should call it 'Thug's Prydwen Battlegrounds' by now.

Don't rhyme. No way is that a poem.

You knows so many have told me the same and I never do. I only F*** *** when I think it is time too or I bored with the post. Dunno wot it is about me but I got the ability to totally take over anyone's post. I tend to take this into account though and will leave well alone so I don't tread on too many toes. I am very thoughtful and sensitive you see.

Must be the way I construct the sentences or something. Weird innit. You have to fight not to respond don't you. Amazing really.

Ok i'll try again, its called "The greatest excited banana"
Here goes....

I'm so excited
I just can't hide it
I'm about to lose control and i think i like it.
I believe the children are our are future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Let me hear you say
This shit is bananas B-A-N-A-N-A-S
This shit is bananas B-A-N-A-N-A-S Again,
This shit is bananas B-A-N-A-N-A-S
This shit is bananas B-A-N-A-N-A-S

I know, it doesn't rhyme but i hope you like it.
--------------------------------------------

On topic: I like the FAO <Insert random name> whines, some of them make me laugh to be honest.
Nothing better than seeing someone post here, crying a river because they got killed in the battle grounds :clap:

Well my opinion is along the lines of 'be grateful people are actually posting'. There is freedom of speech -upto a point- and people are exercising it. Don't forget there are all age groups playing this game and quite a few 'role play' when posting on here. They adopt daft words etc to express themselves. But like I said tis better they post than not.

Edit. The moderators really do have their 'finger on the pulse' and will sure as hell step in as soon as a post or reply is offensive.

Thing is im not denying this. Like i said im all for freedom of speech. But posting a thread about 1 incident, say someone bolts u while ure in a one on one doesnt really warrent a FAO: RANDOMWIZ - OMFG , Why did u add on me lame wiz, i will find u and kill u now ect ect...

Its really not worth the space. But i spose it wont change , it was just an idea to cut down on the spam.

And come back to BG1 Thugs :p

Bollox to that

i've seen so many personal attack, offensive crap being posted on these forums and i'll be dammed if any mod gave a shite, Flimgoblin used to be alright in here but cant remember the last time i even saw him here.....

you can more or less say/post anything you want and get away with it, personaly i wouldnt do that thanks to sods law, but i'm sure some of my posts were ban worthy...

I prefer Limericks myself - here is my effort.

There was a toon called MKJ,
Who everyone thought was a bit gay,
So we went round his house,
And cut off his mouse,
Now the poor guy can't play.
