Should the steam room be public or private?

**The Mob** · 02-24-2009, 01:43 PM

the time requirement would be kinda iffy.
im sure someone could just leave their browser at this windows for 6 hours.

**Mathalamus** · 02-24-2009, 01:46 PM

how about 744 hours?

( 31 days times 24 hours.)

yea but you'd be able to tell from the post to time ratio. Proper moderation could fix any resulting issues.

No, I say you have to be a forum member. (Is that the lowest user group?)
As long as there not brand new or a guest....

Maybe a veteran.

A lot of people don't post at all, for example Jedi. He's most likely here and watching this as it's posted but won't be here to speak.

**Zerobanshee** · 02-25-2009, 12:45 PM

I only remember like 3 posts that Jedi has done. Otherwise, I just see him editing everywhere he went. Rofl

What if it was invite only? Like, only people that the mods think mature enough to stay?

**wazzacky** · 02-25-2009, 01:25 PM

that'd be ok i guess. It might turn in to some trouble.. i was thinkin about the amount of posts. I think getting like 200 posts would be suffecient, Any mroe would take too long and become a turn off.

Cell phones are the shit these days.

I say it should be like 400-500 posts required; let people work for it if they care so much about it.

Or don't change a thing because those who get offended by the slightest flames that go on in there don't belong to a website dedicated to a M game.

**Z3R0** · 02-26-2009, 05:32 AM

I thought the whole point of the steam room was you could argue and flame freely...but you still get infracted for insulting people there.

**Pamela** · 03-02-2009, 05:27 PM

I think I am the only one that did that but it was a VERY personal and malicious attack. Flame and attack are 2 different things.IF YOU try to murder someone on this site...totally rip them apart in a thread not meant to be a fight thread...I don't GIVE a shit WHAT section it is in...your ass answers to me.....

**Siris** · 03-02-2009, 10:14 PM

Did you delete my post Pam???

**Pamela** · 03-03-2009, 05:20 AM

Nope love I did not...Spit has some kind of "tick" here..for lack of a better phrase...that will show you posted on your screen...if you refresh the post vanishes...it has happened to me a LOT and after the third try I normally just go play FFXI...Do NOT have a clue what it is...but...you are not alone.

**Warslut** · 03-03-2009, 05:39 AM

Why should we? Chances are if someone is coming to a forum about these kinds of games and are going to post in this section when there is a clear warning, they can take the abuse. What if someone has been here for a month and only made about 50 good posts, and something really pisses them off and they want to rant? Just because they're new doesn't mean they aren't mature or have something useful to say. Maybe they have a good joke but no point in telling it anywhere else because it will be *****'d out. Internet is 100% their own risk. I'ts not like we're posting ****. They have a warning before they click on this area. Don't make other people miss out because of a few idiots.

My proposal is simple and I will make a seperate poll for votes.
Steam Room should be for the senior members that earned the right to post on the private forum .
We can bash each other at will and not care..you are pussies anyway.
A section can be added called "Flame"
This is not about trashing people you know..this will be where idiocy can be safely recognized...and either bowed to...or torn into.

The whole reason why the steam room was created was so people could try to rip each other's throats out without getting banned. People that don't want to be attacked or flammed shouldn't post there. It's simple as that.

While I'm flattered you agree with me(not really), I honestly think you inflict more damage on yourself when you post...unless you count the damage of people having to read your posts.
