Well we did have a theme of trying to reduce 'sillyness' some time back.....

Rudeness is outlawed & pettyness is always discouraged.

The problem is it's difficult to draw the line & still maintian an attitude of free thought & open-ness. Just where do you draw the line without risking becoming a site that takes itself too seriously?

I see only a fraction of posts but there have been one or 2 where I thought a good thread was being brought down by silly posts..... kinda kills it for me. I was about to write to the poster but then thought it would be wrong to try to wield a stick.

Suggestions welcome.

Think Global. It's the world we live in.

I try to run real tight ship over there. Kids will be kids and adults will be adults,..... This community has a wide variety of age groups. When you enter any forum, you need to accept this and deal with it. We can't police every body's maturity level around here.

The screenshot contest, though good in its conception have become a prime place for this immaturity. Just look at some of the comments that have been made over the past contests.

I highly disagree with that as I monitor it to the best of my ability. I am always on top of anybody who is causing a stir. That is why I createdThe Oath! As silly as it seems, since I posted this and asked everybody to sign it, it has been smooth sailing! I will delete anything that is not within the guidelines or anything that somebody posts that is offensive or troubling! That's it. Read the rules, post your shot, be supportive of your other members and have fun!

If somebody does not like a certain forum, you have the freedom not to enter it. I have heard this all before and life goes on. Your post referencing the Monthly Screenshot Contest is why I wonder why I even waste my time with the whole contest to begin with. Many, many people enjoy the monthly contest and have nice comments and constructive criticism for most of the entries. I think it has created an environment for everybody to learn from and have some fun. Heck, StudioV was "born" from the monthly contest! I find the ones complaining about how it is run, why they are not in the finals, etc.. are the ones who maybe should not be joining in this competitive fun that we have tried to offer to our forum members..

If it really gets to you, maybe it is time to lay low Wink
