Pain in the FAKKU ass...

Okay, I've notice a surge in stupid, idiotic things on this forum and I just wanted to vent about it.

One, I know it's Chuu and all, but there are people who signed up last month (not even that long) and they've already posted 400+ and are Elites?!

IT'S QUALITY NOT QUANTITY!

I'll take someone with 200 posts that has been here since 07 that actually contributes to the good of the forum instead of someone babbling on like some 10 year old child with ADD. Hey look, there a bike...

Plus, over half the topics I've read this morning have spun off topic into stupid diatribes that are long and pointless to read. MY OPINION, if you read a post, something else pops into your brain that's not related to the post, then start a new thread.

I'm not saying stupid shit can't be posted, that's why we have incoherent babbling and all... but seriously, it all looks like a mess. Maybe I'm just PMSing... but I think it's out of hand. Feel free to slam me I guess, I just wanted to vent about it, because I love this forum, and I don't want to see it get trashed by a few who only care about the amount of posts they have, or those who just want to piss people off.

lol,I want to second that but considering I too don't have that much posts although I joined for quite some time, :oops: .Yeah, I agree,quality over quantity but these days people tend to tell who u are from what you look not what you can do.It really sad if you think about it :cry: Fk that!

Crap I feel like this is sort of directed at me, except when I look back most of my posts are me arguing with other people about topics I didn't start, while I bring logic and knowledge, I'm not sure where I fit in all of this...

I know where you're coming from rukia but the user base is growing. There's a lot more people that are joining the forums and are being active. Since there's so many people now you can easily just keep posting because there's almost always people replying. It's getting easier to get that post count up than it was before. It's not so much spam (unless you're talking about Chuu) as it is people just being active. And sure, threads sometimes go off topic but it's not that bad. Users definitely need to work on that(me included I'm sure) but it's not out of hand. We're just having a good time.

well as far as IB is concerned you kinda gotta expect that in a forum that has incoherent babbling in the forum name. as for the rest you are totally right. im not really sure how much the admins and such moderate but haveing a few others to help out seems to be in order.(just as i see it from my chair. if yall are already doing this then woot)

sadfaes, i post a shit load and have only been here since March of this year; Rukia babe, was this @me?

Lol what, I've been registered longer that waar. But I guess since I only started posting like a few weeks ago, the other months don't count. Anyway, rukia, I completely agree. Many topics go off about something completely different than the matter at hand, which in some cases (read: Incoherent Babbling) is okay, but in others, like the serious discussion forum, it isn't. So anyway, thanks for saying something that needed to be said.

I feel confident that I'm not adding to the problem. Though if I'm wrong I'm sure Onee-chan would tell me so I could straighten up my act. I believe its because of the large influx of people. I've seen FAKKU mentioned on 4chan and other sites so we have to pay the price of our popularity.

people has forgotten this kind of problem long ago,and now you brought it back.

it's ok. lets settle this.

i admit,i'm a new member in FAKKU. most people suprised why i'm getting the title so much faster than anyone.

that's because i like FAKKU. since there's so many people active in this forum,so do i.

maybe. the first time i come in here,i'm posting spam. but Jacob has deleted all of it,long ago.

you can call me spammer or what just because i've become elite in a very short of time. i'm not doing a spam,Jacob has deleted my spam post long ago (again).

since then,i'm not posting Spam or whatever you people called it.

i've watched FAKKU almost everyday every hours,every minutes,every seconds i spent for FAKKU.

i even look after new member who's joined FAKKU.

if they do some mistakes,i help them. if they need something to search,i help them.


https://www.fakku.net/viewtopic.php?t=6076


i'm contributing myself 100% to FAKKU. all over the time. almost everyday i sit in front of this monitor to watch FAKKU. not even a second i move from my seat.

i always check the situation and features in FAKKU which i posted it in "Suggestion,Feedback,Support" page. checking every feature in FAKKU. even i have something to add to make this site even better.

if you feel you're superior because you've joined this forum long before me and the other new member,then claim yourself.

whether they're old member or new member. we're here to join and befriended with each other. way of thinking like "the older is superior" is wrong. for me,there's no superior words. we're all the same. no higher,no lower. but everyone must respect the other. that's why i'm acting strict to new member. that's not because i want to do my own rules,but i want them to respect the other.

as for the OOT (out of topic),yes,people must post something that not related to the topic. but i dont really mind of people having fun with it. that's why forum is created.

it seems like you referring this to me. i know it. if you wants to solve this personal problem,you'd better not to this topic.

every new member feels they're only spamming. but i believe,they wont do that. not all new members are bad,and not all old members are good.

i must remind you. altough i'm a new member,i care for this forum. believe or not,it's up to you. since you've labelled me as a bad person. that's because you dont know the real me,and what's my true intentions. i only tell it to some peoples in fakku.

if anything you want to tell me,you'd better PM-ing me. this thread only starts a flame war once again. i suggest this thread deleted,and the situation should back to normal again.

this is a personal problem. no need to involve other member.

Yeah, the fact that it's been posted on 4chan means that there wil be a few idiot/newfags/underage b& joining here, who think that they're awesome and know everything. Which they don't. I'm not a problem, right?! I'll try to troll less.

I can imagine it would be a pain in the ass for Onee-chan (I would probably feel more comfortable using Onee-sama though) Rukia to name names, but it would still help a bunch of insecure types like myself, most of whom don't want to be a burden on the community so they feel the desire to see if they are part of the problem, but they generally are not. I think it would still make many of us feel better if we were told we aren't on that list, it's just that there is a lot of people to name so it's kind of a waste of effort. I will admit though Chuu is a colossal burden on the community, I've argued with him before, it isn't pleasant, he is one of those who don't know when they have been beaten.

Then I guess I'm not included to such people...
I've been here for quite sometimes and my posts count haven't even reached elite levels...
Well, maybe I'm just being utter lazy...

I tend to just reply in threads that catch my interest, like this one. And I do see what you mean. I think that the introduction to the "Elder" status has somewhat fueled people to post more.

Agreed. I spend more time looking at threads than I do posting. Mainly because I either just want to tell certain people to shut the fuck up, or I don't feel I can contribute to the thread. Another rule of thumb for myself is to try not to post unless I can fill in more than two sentences (ignoring the incoherent babbling section).

This may be why I don't have nearly as many posts as most people. I like to think that my posts aren't all mindless.

I was getting that feeling for a while too, but with the flaming I kind of felt like it was one of those things that some people needed to get out of their system and that it would subside. It kind of has settled down, but those type of situations are kind of like herpes and heroin addiction, it might not be a big problem at times, but it never really goes away. As long as there's a diverse group of people, there's going to be flaming and senseless bickering.

I do make a lot of posts. I joined about a week before Onee-chan and I have like 200 more posts than her, but that's only because I get into conversations and I've been a very active member since I joined. I'll post bullshit sometimes, but I feel I've managed to keep it under control. No one's ever called me on it, so I guess I'm good. I try not to go off on tangents, but if I stray from the main topic, I'll either try to get back on track or my posts are so long that a lot of people kind of just brush them aside.

Unless we manage to create some sort of group of hyper-efficient super mods, I don't think the whole spamming/trolling/whatever other sources of bullshit posts issue will ever be completely manageable. I think that if I put the time in, I could be a fairly efficient mod. There's a number of dedicated Fakkers who I think would do a good job as well. What I do think would be kind of a good idea, I might post it in the suggestions forum if I get around to it, is have as many of the regulars keep on their toes and kind of make a note of any bullshit they come across so it can be dealt with. I suppose that's kind of what the report link is for, but some people tend to feel a little weird about reporting shit.

Well, one way to fix this problem would be: instead of determing the ranks of the users just by the post count, how about the admins add more stats? Such as minutes online, or pages viewd, or messages read, membership time. Plus the post count.

For example: Lets make up a rank "Order of the Rabbit" stats needed - 300 posts, 1,000 minutes online, 2000 messages read, member for at least 2 months.

And raise the stats/ requirements for each rank as they go up. You won't have many "elders" with that.

Here is an example of one of the message boards I have been a member off since'04.

no honey, not you... it's, complicated, and i don't think i came out completely right... but i think many got my drift.

okay... i had to read over what everyone said and try to put my thoughts on the this post.

this might clear up some things. if you have quality posts, it doesn't matter how much you post... it's all good because you bring something good to the table. it's some of the bullshit that falls off topic and doesn't make any sense. I'm not asking for all of you to agree, just read my venting words and think about it.

Yeah, it's better just to ignore him. In a related note, I think this thread should stay for all new members to see, hopefully they'll catch the drift that we don't particularly enjoy this kind of behavior.

You are so right... I went back and deleted what I said to him, not to give him any satisfaction. :)
