It's not necessarily for the purist people, I just don't see the need to use excessive profanity. If something slips out every once in a while, that's fine, but someone using profane language after every question should be taught a lesson, and possibly reprimanded(kicked) from the channel. I know everyone knows these words and has probably used them all before, but when there is mixed company and people of all ages, one must think of the consequences of what one types.

Excuse me but... WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO THE COLORS HERE? It's not that I don't like change, change is a good thing. I just think that going from a nice serene color scheme to one that is dark, gloomy, and depressing was not the best idea. So, Chalupa, if you could change it back I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

LostPeon- Start a new thread- or, even better, go to the "General" forum where this topic was already started. I asked for feedback and we started a vote. So far, it's 3 in favor of the new colors to zero against it. I'm all ears for recommendations but I can't please everyone 100%. That is why we go with the majority. Offer a different idea, and maybe we will all agree but don't just demand a change.... Imagine if we all did that when we didn't like something?

Oh, sorry, I haven't been able to look over many of the threads going lately. I will vote, and hopefully you will all come back from the dark side.

Ok i say we have a trivia-o-thon once every other month between the 2 players with the lowest scores form the previous month and the loser gets added to a hall of shame like what you do with the winner with the highest score!

Well back to the stealing answers/name calling/banning.
It seems that stealing is a problem that we just can't get rid of, kinda like stealing in real life, but it is a crazy and horribly annoying problem! Lol when you alone know something, but you spell it stolenn instead of stolen, what a pain!!
I can see where your coming from Shifted, but unfortunately it is happening constantly, as you must know.
Well although this is not supposed to be the colour scheme thread, the comments were too interesting to pass up. I'm agreeing with Lostpeon, as i say in the other thread, change is bad! lol. Specially because I didn't hear people complaining, didn't see no messages on it.. and I do check them all, minus this last weekend. So unless there were a lot of people saying to you Chalupa, CHANGE the colours, I'm thinking that you were listening to one or just a few people to change it originally... Which is interestingly just what your accusing Lost of trying to demand, despite that being why we changed in the first place...

Hmmm this is not good. Rabid you just deleted all of shifted's posts here?? I duno about that man, things are going to have to change. He made a valid argument, stealing answers sucks, and he was expressing that, now his message is gone??? Just because it was aimed at you? Sure maybe some of the following ones you could look into maybe talk to chalupa about, but not his first messages anyways!!!
As i brought up in my new thread "How many posts are being deleted?" The moderators seem to going too far.
Yourself, rabid, and Trash both seem to be deleting posts, which I think should be off limits to you guys(I duno about lost, i haven't seen anything to point to him doing it yet)
As you write rabid:" 2. I have the authority, although it may not seem fair to you."
Well it doesn't seem fair to me either. Sure in theory you do have the authority, but Chalupa didn't give you a blank cheque on it.
Chalupa's going to have to explain this to me, but I'm sure hoping that moderators will lose their rights to deleting messages. At the very least Chalupa should be notified or at least have more than one mandatory moderator deciding to delete something.
Lol i don't like this, I sure hope we can work this out, so much for freedom of the press huh?

I think I might just start deleting both of your posts, if you two don't stop bickering like little children. Come on now, you're old enough to forgive and forget, just drop the whole thing, there's no reason to hold a grudge.

Which is interestingly just what your accusing Lost of trying to demand, despite that being why we changed in the first place... NavY_Ceals Navy, Here are a couple of problems: First, the above post is all over the place. First, your talking about people stealing, then it's about the colors used on the board. Second, if you look at the posts before yours, the topic is jumping all over the place. I can't figure out why you guys don't start a new thread, or stay in topic when you add to a Thread. The Mods are supposed to keep people on topic and maybe a better way is to post right after the "off topic" post and warn the person to start a new thread, or stay on topic. Any other message board that I use on the internet delete off topic posts or move them to the proper thread. And since you brought up the colors, let me repeat myself again. I changed the colors, and then posted a message asking for feedback. I was more than willing to find a user who had better "decorating sense" than I have, but all I got was responses that the new look was great. So where is all this color bashing coming from? Do you *know* why I changed them? How can you accuse me of listening to a couple of people, when you have no facts on why I changed the colors? At least speak to the fact and if you don't know, then you assume. You know what they say about people who assume? Now, if you want to start a debate about the colors, please do so. Just remember to START a new thread. Don't just jump on some random thread and start posting "oh btw, I know we are talking about the bot being down, but what the hell happened to the colors here!?". If you want to debate the "deleting" of posts, then use that thread. That was the proper way to start the debate. Chalupa

hmmmm well the idea was to keep this short, it kinda just flowed. Yes I did cover 3 different topics, why? Because there were 3 different topics on this thread, as you point out in your "2." point. You see the jumping around as a problem, well look at the thread, it's IDEAS, not idea, this is the perfect thread to just pop out ideas or suggestions.
You think that I should have started another thread, and you may even think this message should be on a new thread, but posting the message under the messages that it is referring to makes way too much sense to me. You think that I should start a new thread, which will make people refer back to another one in order to understand my argument? Short of quoting all the posts I would like to incorporate into my argument, putting a new message under them seems the obvious choice..

Navy, you do have a valid point in saying that it makes sence, but you jumped out of nowhere and asked what happened with the colors. That was not in any of the posts in this thread before your's. And in your rant about stealing answers/name calling/banning, you jump over so many topics it's not even for one thread. If you feel like ranting, ask Chalupa to make a ranting section (I think he offered it sometime ago but I don't remember for sure) and rant there. But this isn't my arguement and I don't want to step on anyone's toes.

Fine I won't rant and rave in this one, but I still have to point out something just in case people don't read this whole thread and blindly accept your statement! THERE ARE POSTS ABOVE MINE ON THE TOPIC OF THE COLOURS. I'm not totally stupid.. lol the posts are there, Lost started the post and chalupa responded to it. It is there! (as of this posting)
