The administration did reply in the second post; however, people decided to discuss this matter further. Is this okay with you? Or should we ask your permission every time we would like to discuss something? People have been attempting to intelligently reason out the pros and the cons of such a new forum, and I see nothing wrong with this (either do the admins, as this thread has not been deleted). You don't have to read this thread if you don't want to, but don't post bashing other people's ideas.

> This thread is ridiculous and highlights so much of what is currently wrong with Daniweb.

there is nothing wrong with daniweb(other than the fact that there is no gaming board)

That is an excellent suggestion. I offer my services as a mentor to the young. Please PM me each time you have an impulse to post on this site and I'll provide coaching and remedial English. As a fee for this professional service, I request 2% of all positive rep points generated in the Geek's Lounge be credited to my account.

Absolutely. I've been griping about the deterioration of the quality of Daniweb, so in the spirit of being part of the solution rather than part of the problem, I accept Josh's suggestion for supplying quality control to the forum. For starters, anyone who has posted more than two posts with multiple missing apostrophes should suspend posting directly and instead PM me first.

hahaha... oh okay. I didn't realize that you were the grand master of the english language. You must have a masters and graduate degree in english if you are so talented.. We shall all bow down to you, and pay you tribute in the form of reputation

I cannot speak for everyone, but I'm pretty sure that most of us can speak, write, and understand English just as well as you can. Some of us just choose to be more relaxed about it, and use abbreviations. I have already fulfilled my college requirement for English, and I'm quite certain that I know just as much as you do about English.

Up until this post and for the following 7 post (this one included) this was a discussion about the merits of a gaming board. Since the above post, it's been one ego telling us all what's wrong with this website as a whole, and all rebuttals have nothing to do with a gaming board. Thank you for pointing out the problems here by creating the problem yourself.

Hypocrisy is alive and well here.

Tgreer started it all by posting rudely and trying to condemn this thread and the OP. As I said following his post, we were simply trying to list the pros and cons of such a new idea.. but he has to come in and bash us all..

WaltP - then do something about it. You're a moderator, issue me an infraction. I'd welcome any sign that this site hasn't spun out of control, even if the action is directed against me. Name names, take action, do something about the situation. The moderators should stop sitting on their hands.

Wow. I think he just insulted the moderating team, and dared them to give him an infraction...

Daniweb is fine the way it is.. I mean sure, there may be a few minor problems. But you act as if Daniweb is a complete failure. People get off-topic and post with incorrect grammar in the Geek's lounge as that is the point of the Geek's Lounge. To Relax. I have not seen much off-topic posts in the other 99% IT portion of Daniweb.
