Please, This is Getting Annoying

Post by Silverwood »

TR member's in the lounge, as if that's why they joined. It seems the lounge should be hidden to all TR Members. Anyone else realize the number of __ Vs. ___ threads?

We have a private tavern. Why not a private lounge too?

What for ? I don't see a single reason why we should prevent people from chatting with each other. Don't like it ? Don't visit it.

That would be redundant. We have the lounge for everyone who wants to spam away on the TR forums, member or modder.

We've had this problem for years. It used to be much worse, they even closed the lounge completely about two years ago. (And everyone made a new forum to spam at, lol). But I think pulling Lounge posts off of the 10 most recent helped a lot last year. There's really nothing that can be done about it.

However, I too am annoyed at all these Blank vs. Blank LOL. It's just.. not funny. Pirates vs. Ninjas was fun. Now the joke is stale, old, and being told in a way that makes it even less funny. I say git rid of them, because I'm just a meany.

I only see 3 'vs' threads, and even one of them is an 'or' rather than 'vs'....


Anyway, I don't think stoppping memebers from accessing the Lounge woudl make much difference, most of us are bad enoguh at it anyway.

Spam-drive is akin to sex-drive. You can try to repress it all you want, but in the end they just need to find someway of letting it out- better to give them a safe and healthy environment to do so. When you go into the lounge, dont expect to see anything worthwhile!
NEW MEMBERS: I'm not with TR anymore, so please stop PMing me. Just post your sample work in the showcase.
