These links no longer work.

I changed the posting guidelines links, but can't find the sig and avatar thread. Anyone know where it went?

@_kai_:, did you get my PM?

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

I think it has the day off. I would check back tomorrow. Or I can transfer you to the "Any News on EO" thread.

@_kai_, did you get my PM?

No I did not.

Looks like it got lost in the move. Does the old site still exist on the server?

Hey, I just learned today that if you make a new thread post and have little or no replies you have violated the “Forum Rules”. So all you jacka$$es that make a new thread and no one or few people reply just knock-it-off, you’re really pissing people off and making them mad. I am not sure how you know if someone will reply to your post or even if you care that they reply, but rules are rules. However, if you insist on posting, my suggestion would be to get a magic eight ball, a ouji board, or read up on Nostradamus. Good Luck!!!

Well let's just look at this post right here and run it through the forum guideline checker:

- Profanity or vulgarities (dust off the dictionary and find a better word)
CHECK

- Flames
CHECK

- Personal insults, name-calling or attacks of other posters
CHECK

- Criticism of forum staff (see below for how to register a complaint)
INDIRECTLY

- Off-topic posts not in the Off-topic forum
CHECK (while technically true it's kinda funny so I had to CHECK it)

- Multiple, identical posts
CLEAR (though it's arguable this was being discussed in another thread so cross-threading it is a form of a multiple post)

- Material that may be construed as offensive, whether or not it is on-topic
CHECK

Are you sure I only got 5.5 points and not 10.5? Your not using Obama math are you? I really need every point I can get since I didn't do very well on my mid-term. Darn, my dad said I would never amount to anything. Actually, i made up that last sentence, since my dad left when I was six and I didn't see him again until I was 26, that part is true.

Hang in there Reaper. Life wouldn't be any fun if we didn't break a few rules along the way.

Someone has taken this a bit too personally and still hasn't understood the concept and initial point of combining all like materials into one thread. Such an unfathomable and hard concept to understand..

Your right, some people have an "unfathomable and hard concept to understand" that a basketball thread should be about basketball (will small deviations for snide remarks, attempts at comedy, witty observations, ect.) but instead continue to post about football day-after-day, after-day, after-day, after-day, after-day, after-day, ....
