"Rules for Message Board"

Posted by MicowOverboard on 10-03-01 at 03:34 PM
Are there rules posted anywhere? I noticed that a post of mine was edited. In it I described the way I thought that Tomiko might have judged Michael in Episode One when she chose Adrian over Michael. It was purely speculative (I did not say Michael IS ___________ _______________ _______________) and also it did not seem nearly as insulting or offensive as some of the other posts on this board (for example the ones about Toni's breasts, Michael's breasts, the Bash Lisa thread, etc.). I would prefer to follow the rules than be edited, especially since I was not notified.

I cannot speak for the Webmaster.. But.. I feel I have been here long enough to say this much...The rules are such....

You CANNOT flame an individul poster... ie: No name calling or derogatory comments about them personally.. Yes.. MIKE is fair game. He is a contestant of a reality show after all.. *sighs for her clown* This doesn't mean you cannot disagree with someone. The main rule is NO ATTACKING of another poster because of their veiws, race, opinions, or whatever.....

I didn't see your post, so I can't comment on what you may have posted that may be offensive...But I DO know that we have fair Moderators.. in fact.. thay are quite tolerant.. even if they don't necessarily agree.....

Dunno know if this helps.. but I hope so..

Well, if Mike's fair game, I don't know why I was edited, because the comments that were edited were about Mike. But thanks!!

Sorry.. wish I could have seen it... I DO know that your comments wouldn't have been edited if they weren't in some way hurtful to someone that regularluy posts here, or offensive to the general public. Perhaps thsy were TOO personal against Mike.. I dunno.. *shrugs* I do know that if they were deleted.. there was a good reason. I hope this doesn't make you think we censor... because we DON'T... Far from it. I think if you stick around, you'll find this the fairest, most tolerant message board for reality TV that you have ever had the fortune to come across...

Vampy,

I was really not offended at all about being edited, really more embarrassed than anything else. I want to follow the rules. I'm not used to being spanked. I definitely will not run away 'cause this place is fun!!

Rachel,

You commented in the other thread that your post (#12) had been edited. Is that the one you mean?

If so, I'm sorry to tell you that it has NOT been edited. If it had been edited, there would be a line of red text at the top that says: "LAST EDITED ON date AT time". If it had been edited by the Webmaster or by a moderator, instead of by you, that would appear in the line as well -- as you can see in this post by janisella here.

The "LAST EDITED ON" lines are an inherent feature of the software, designed to prevent anyone from changing an original post surrepticiously. If such a line is not present, the post hasn't been edited -- the software routine that adds that text cannot be defeated or turned off in DCScripts, to the best of my knowledge.

In other words, I don't know why your post doesn't read the way that you thought it did, but no one edited it after you posted it. Sorry.

Edited to provide an example of the little red "LAST EDITED ON" line at the top of this post.

Hi MicowOverboard, the only folks that can edit a post in this forum are the original writer, SurvivorBlows (me), Webmaster (also me, but an ID a never use), and AyaK.

None of us edited your post -- and as AyaK pointed out, if we had, it would say so in red letters across the top of it.

Hope this helps...

I saw the post in question MOB, and usually, if the webmaster edits a post, it will say so clearly in red at the top of that post. Are you sure that you didn't just accidently post an incomplete sentance? I've never seen a few words just disappear, and you don't strike me as someone that would post anything malicious.

Well, that means it was MY mistake, and that's even worse. Tail tucked between legs, MicowOverboard slinks away in shame ... but will be back in a few minutes ... can't stay away.

Be very, very careful what you post. The Amish have ears everywhere! They are quite touchy since they took over Canada and there has been such a backlash against buying any of their home spun clothes or furniture. They control everything!

"My take"
Posted by thecaptain on 10-03-01 at 05:38 PM
All I know is that there are a bunch of whiny babies on this board. I have gotten flamed by all you flamers more than once. You can take me out of the country, but you can't take the country out of me.

Look, we are supposed to make fun of all the wanna-be celebs on the show. They have placed themselves in that position. All you posters suck-assing up to Michael "Shakes the Clown" are just as pathetic. Don't you all see that this is a third rate reality show? I doubt that 50 people have even seen the show. So y'all shouldn't get so teed off when the Cap'n makes valuable comments.

Quit your damn sucking up. He is not a celebrity, and the fact that he is able to girly up to the bimbos on that boat doesn't make him a stud. Put me on that boat. I'd ask the girls to make out and to rip off a top. Ain't nothing wrong with that radio.


"Fair Warning"
Posted by NightScribe on 10-03-01 at 06:38 PM
Hello again cap. You may remember me -- I'm NightScribe and I responded to your post regarding your need for some "lesbo" action. I thought I had taken care of you. Now I come here and find you calling myself and my new friends "whiny babies" and this is in addition to your refrence to us as "pussies" in another thread. Please take note of what I am about to write. Get a pen and jot it down if you need to. Your utter lack of class coupled with your inability to post anything even remotely intelligent has forced me into a new job. I declare here and now that each time I find a post written by you that is either insulting to myself or other posters or in anyway offends my sense of good taste, which isn't much I'll admit, I will make it my duty in life to expose you for the knuckle-dragger that you are. So either clean up your foul posts, or get lost.

If you find us to be whiny babies, why the hell are you still here? Please don't answer the question, just go away, go far far away

GOD BLESS AMERICA
