It is however a fact that the people that came here came for oa.com and knew the rules that existed there. In fact, I would venture to guess that most of the people that were here in the beginning had their first message board experiences on oa.com.Quote:It's been a long standing tradition that stems from the rules at oa.com that no signatures should not contain more than one pic, more than 4 lines of text and that sig pics should be less than 500 pixels total dimension when adding width + height. We did not institute this rule when we started this board because we figured that people had accepted the standard.
pssst...kid...this isn't oa.com...
whatever "rules" were there are not and weren't here. I may not have been here "from the beginning", but I've been caught up for a while on everything that's happened as if I was here - so you can take your "this is how we started things" attitude and shove it up your ass. If you notice, the rest of the folks who "laid the first stones" have since departed...
you've won no argument because there wasn't one - you made suggestions, they were noted. you didn't start this thread but you've kept it going. if it makes you feel better to think you've won then fine - feel that way. Grumpy was much better at claiming message board victories, but even he seems to have given that up (after a brief renaissance at YMB)
and if people arent willing to reduce their sig pic sizes, what then? should we cell them maybe?? yeah, that's it!! we'll cell everyone!!
Quote:I've dealt with it thus far, and I'll continue to do so.
yes, yes you will - short of jack's skin and people wanting their statuses changed, nothing else will be touched.
You say that I've falsely claimed victory, but I say that you're still only arguing the point to be an adversary. You have offered no argument to dispute the claims laid forth. You keep saying that I'm trying to implement rules when I have been saying all along that no rule is needed.
If you choose to support the idiotic actions of some others in this thread (read: hedcold), you only further prove that you have no point other than to oppose me.
I'd say that the only reason that you could even rest on your feeble argument is that you are one of the many that are holding the keys.
I've tried reason. Others have agreed with the idea.
You've left me with no choice other than an equally ridiculous retort.
If once, you offered a valid counterpoint, I might have listened. Instead, you downplay my point by misconstruing it.
Enjoy your harvest.
