Yes, they have a way of coming back again and again like a bad penny. That said, I seem to have missed most of his shenanigans either because his stay was so brief or because I didn't frequent the threads he was posting in.
Yes, I guess I was lucky but I often miss the firefights on here. Just as well that I do, most likely!
Could say the same about religion old son and at least football actually exists - mores the pity in Karius's case.
Well, you don't seem to find it boring in the Religion thread, old chap. You could bang on about it for days there!
If good men do nothing and all that jazz.
Fair enough. I would expect nothing less of you.
Could I respectively ask that we reduce the footfall on the Activity page a little please. We need to be able to sift through new members, and there are so many conversations going on on there that it makes it quite difficult.
We have private messaging and the free chat thread
https://www.mi6community.com/discussion/2367/chat-thread-free-discussion#latest
which you can use.
Many thanks
The free chat thread was annexed by @Thunderfinger
Maybe we should open a new thread for "fun Bond repartee"
The Activity page isn’t there for ‘real fun things’ Andi. As a new member maybe you should try to be appreciative of how things work so you can integrate into the forums.
By all means open a fun Bond repartee thread to talk about such matters, just don’t use the Activitypage.
I don’t know what you mean about @Thunderfinger annexing the ‘free chat thread’. Sorry
I'm well aware of how the forum works, which I think should be obvious by now.
I simply participated in the activity log as many do.
Here's what I found on it on the main HQ page:
Activity constitutes users' non-discussion interrelations and actions - much like the Facebook news feed or headlines feature. This will allow you to keep taps on the MI6 Community at large.
Maybe you can elaborate on that, what exactly it means and give us a practical example so we use it correctly in the future.
Thank you.
PS: The Thunderfinger reference was an in-joke, don't worry about it.
To hell, hopefully. Words should be sufficient to convey meaning.
I asked that you could ‘reduce the footfall a little’ not abandon all together.
@Andi1996Ruegg I have no idea what the definition means or what James Page had in mind. All I know is the powers that be trust the moderators to do a job and sometimes we get bogged down by the clutter.
As I say feel free to open a thread if you haven’t already
Me either, as I appreciate it causes havoc for the mods having to wade through it all. It's out of respect for them, really. It's not too much to ask, I feel.
We have to check out newb accounts, profile pic changes and the like. So I do appreciate your feedback and understanding on this matter.
Closing again for the time being
OK, we have had some heated exchanges, especially on the Bond 25 thread (I won't call them debates or discussions) and as moderators we have been pretty lenient. These arguments may seem harmless or inoffensive, but they are driving members away. Especially those who are simply after updates on the progress of Bond 25.
@DarthDimi calmed it all down by closing the thread temporarily.
So, this is a general warning. The next time the bickering breaks out we will be issuing formal warnings for constant breaking of forum rules.
So please keep it civil and try not to spoil it for everyone else. Thanks
As ever I will keep this open for feedback, but if you simply want to complain about other members then use the PMs.
Look for me, I don't mind if there is a lack of discussion on that Bond 25 production thread while we wait for actual news on that particular upcoming film. I'd rather that happen (temporarily dormant, though not closed) and the other discussions/debates, etc. take place on other threads. Surely we have threads to cover the main points being talked about? Maybe we don't, but I would think we do, though I have not checked myself.
While there are some off topic discussions (aka fighting) that are a problem, I generally enjoy the organic way the conversation flows from one topic to another. It gives us an idea of what MI6 Community would be like if it were simply an open-ended chat room instead. However there is certainly a point where discussion is too off topic from Bond 25.
Yeah, there shouldn’t be bickering but I don’t mind people voicing their opinions on what may happen regarding B25 and as long as they are relatively on topic and not harming anyone else they should be allowed to speak.
