The TiBB Revolution Manifesto
 

Here are some points I feel would help make the site a better place. I'm not one to make these sorts of threads because they're usually started by someone throwing their dummy out of the pram - but I think it's safe to say that everyone's noticed a large moron-contingent lately.

The manifesto:

- Words such as 'legend', 'epic' and 'fail' shall be used sparingly, if ever. They're beyond tiresome now and they're meant to be strong adjectives, not commonly used.

- Before posting in a topic about a current event where there is a lot of grief, destruction or sadness involved - tact should be exercised and distasteful jokes kept off-site and especially off-thread.

- Similarly - but also universally - CHECK WHAT YOU ARE POSTING IS FACT. We've seen a lot of examples of people posting nonsense facts (the recent example was the death toll of Haiti's earthquake)

- Stop posting threads criticising the moderators. It makes the site look really unprofessional and more often than not they are doing their job correctly. The likelihood is, if you're complaining about a ban then you deserved it. I know I have in the past.

- However, the respect should be mutual. When threads are locked, posts deleted/edited or signatures edited there should always be a reason so as to prevent it spreading into other threads (or causing others to pop up)

- READ EVERYTHING. Don't read one word of this and immediately take offense and jump the gun.

Other than these points I can't think of anything that's wrong lately. It's a pretty good site at the moment...it's been much worse.

Not really revolutionary but it's much more eye-catching this way ;)

:thumbs:
Couldnt agree more

Well thought out and not just a moan :thumbs:

Shaun speaks sense

PM him what?

True OP!

prime minister...

Hmm, I see..

Yes.. well no.. yes, um well yes you see I didnt use words like Epic or Fail as I thought they sounded too American for my liking.

But when I joined here I got use to it and now I say it alot in school.

No seriously Im not gona sit and google everything the way I use to.
And blame my ****tard of a teacher for the Haiti thing :p

Some mods give reasons for why threads are closed, others just ****ing close them and thats that.
We deserve a reason but yeah no hard feelings to the mods who do give reasons.

Agree with it all.

Utter rubbish.

Fact.

I understand it must be confusing if your teacher told you that, because he or she should really know better - but it's in the news...I know the news might bore you or something but I regularly read http://news.bbc.co.uk just to keep up to date.

Well said Shaun:thumbs:.
