General Needs Reform

[Corndog]

Seriously. The interesting/intelligent/discussable to absolute random horse shit ratio is way off.

General needs rules, limits, and a dedicated staff member that just handles General. General is mostly boring, obnoxious, and overall idiotic. Although post count doesn’t equal maturity, you guys live in the general section because you are too mature to play (or obsess over) stupid games like Crossfire and Combat Arms. How about you actually show that maturity.

Internet will = Internet, but I am sick of it.

You're lookin' like a fool with your false sense of authority.

Limits: Able to make only 2 threads in General a Day
Rules: No repeating same threads. eg The JB shit. Already been like 5 threads

I agree.
I don't even come to general anymore because of the idiocy that seems thrive here.
It's like a pandemic.

Fascinating tale chap, I'm 12 and what is this?

I don’t have any false sense of authority. Is it so wrong of me to request something be changed and then back up that request with a legitimate argument - one that I’m sure many people agree with?

No, but I think that it's easier for people to post random bullshit that is offtopic as fuck than for them to actually post something legitimate.

Many people agree with you, but are they the majority?

[Corndog]

The majority of people aren’t lawyers, but if you got into an argument about something, you can sure as hell bet the lawyer will win the argument.

Small, condensed amounts of logic will always beat a mass of bullshit.

Off-topic stuff used to be posted all the time, but it had quality at least.
This is a section meant for general discussion on pretty much anything, after all.
But it's full of stupid and pointless threads that serve no purpose other than trying to raise your post count and "making a name" for yourself on the internet.
I mean, Jetamay's thread about Onlive got bumped from April of '09, but I didn't care because it was actually a decent topic.
It was like a light shined through for a second.

And sadly, the majority are the ones causing the problems.

The bullshitters will flame the fuck out of whoever posts this "small, condensed amounts of logic".

But that's my stereotypical opinion of the majority of people who hang out in General.

I support your argument.
