Simply drop the attitude some of you're having regarding the moderators actions (banning and topic-closing). If you don't accept it - then leave and save us from further trouble.
Also, keep up the quality of the threads - some of the topics are pure shit. It's all about common sense.

If people continue this "rebellion against uncontrolled moddin'" you might as well shut down the board.
COME ON GUYS..IT'S FUCKING STUPID!
I don't know shit about who's banned for what reasons, but I'm sure mailing talking to the crew (by mail AND NOT by dupe accounts) will sort things out, or give you the explanation you need to understand why.
Keep up the good work Moderators!

What this board needs is....
a counter telling you how many times a thread has been veiwed. its not really a complaint, but that seems to be the only thing missing from this board, aside from the ability to search words of 3 letters or less....i was gonna make this into a seperate thread but decided not to, keep up the good work mods!

You can't have a search that allows only 2 letter searches - the server would overload with the kind of indexing that would take.
I think a good feature would be to not allow posts under a certain # of characters (words) to stop the following:
Bob: You online? Fred: yeah, dumbass, I'm typing this, right? Bob: Oh, OK. Fred: No problem!
Bob's post count: 3000+ Fred's post count: 4000+
This board is used too much like a chat room rather than an actual discussion thread where viewpoints are expressed.
Phob is 100% right about the quality/content of recent threads...

some people haven't got that common sense, or it's lost at the moment.
I just joined a couple of weeks ago, but it seems like the board has changed, even since then...
well. I wonder why people complain about the moderators, they're here for us to keep this board decent even when it seems like it's going somewhere most of us don't want...
or maybe -I am- wrong.

I Understand where Phobiazero is coming from. This shit cost money, and when people are just wasting time making pointless threads like "Whats better, AFX or Aphex?"
I haven't seen that particular thread title, but it's along the same lines. Madness is good, annoying stupidity isn't.

I think a good feature would be to not allow posts under a certain # of characters (words) to stop the following
> bad idea methinks... what if someone asked like (just an example), "when is draft 7.30 coming out?", and someone would want to answer "april 7th", but couldn't because the message would be too short so (s)he'd have to lenghten the message, making it like "well, to answer your question, i think that album of autechre is coming out on april 7th! cheers!"
how ridiculous °_°
and it wouldn't really prevent people from having stupid conversations, just by adding more textual @#&* into their messages...
"hello, hello, hello, hello, how are you?" "fine thanks! fdso ofdso sdo fdsohfsdo fou" "w00t!! cool!!! yee haa!!! fuck webmasters!!!"

figured id poke my head in quick and say i agree with EVERYTHING that phob and ceri and ophecks and sine have done/said in the past few weeks this junk has been going on. hopefully their words have some effect, and pave the way for more of a sense of true community.
btw, some of you seem hazy on what this means. community doesnt mean this:
dude: i like radiohead! yay! dude2: you suck! dude: no... YOU suck! mod: break it up. im warning you. dude: HE started it! dude2: i hate xltronic! fascists!
you see, this is not community. break apart the word. it inherently means you have a mutual respect and consideration for the feelings of others. this is not the case, as of late... and is why i and others have been staying away from this place. i pray you all gather your senses and act like reasonable individuals. to the management: keep up the good work. this place is worth it.

good point Uzim... Like Key secret said, I myself have only been here for a few months and I really love it, but it does seem different, but I think the Mods are really doing a good job, and I think it really should be "if you don't like it, then leave"
Sorry for my 2 cents, Ill shut up now...

There's a pretty fine like between spontaneous good and spontaenous bad, causing rifts between mods and some particular users that I won't name because I can't be bothered frankly.
I don't mind the odd bullshit topic, surely it is just expression half of the time, but if that is all the member has to bring to the board, and it becomes frequent, by all means ban the fools.

i agree about people should have more self-control about not posting shit topics...
but about not expressing our opinions about webmasters and moderators -
i understand and totally agree about the fact that you're working hard and doing all this for us who just chat and take profit of your work
i understand if you think we don't have the right to criticize since we aren't making anything but just profiting.
but don't take all critics as personal attacks, against any of you nor against the site/mb! when people just express their opinion, even if it's a bad critic, it can help improving it. be a little understanding, please...
and you could just ban everyone criticizing the actions of the webmasters if you wanted - there would always be criticizing. they would always find a way. and it would just become worse and worse for everyone.

agreed, some explanation or warning would be nice imo
the way it goes now only causes more riots, cause people don't understand the reason why someone was banned sometimes
it's a pity that there's no clear policy for this banning, one day everybody can say and do everything without getting banned, the next day it's 3 peeps in a row who get kicked out for a week
