Read the goddamn post, Mr. I-dont-care-what-someone-else-says-as-long-as-I-can-bitch-at-that-person. It clearly says that the social aspect is very much interesting, same here on these forums. I talk with people because I like to talk with them, not because I am so obsessed with MUDs I can't even have fun anymore or a decent life, like most of you turdflingers around here.

You, my friend, make a crap example for teaching us manners.

KaVir is partially right here. There is no TMS community anymore, just a bunch of people who take MUDs far to serious and forget that the whole concept of creating a MUD is to have fun in a nice way. Instead, they bitch at everyone and forget this having fun principle altogether, with the only social contacts that they still have consisting of MUD gatherings where they eventually forget their own RL name. I pity that kind of people.

These are the kind of people who make up the majority of TMS. Close minded people. People I do not want to associate myself with. Henceforth I have decided to let these forums die out and rot in peace, because they are not worth the effort to argue about. I have met several wonderful people here, I had nice arguements and I have been astonished that people who are running social games can be such utter assholes.

The avatar hosting service will go down in one week. PM/email me your avatar URL and I'll decide if I'm going to keep it or not, based on the fact wether you are a <removed the 'F' bomb. -OE> asshole or not. Anyone remotely nice who is interested in still contacting me, feel free to MSN me at . The rest of you can screw yourself and drop dead, thank you very much.

Closed minds should come with closed mouths.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

im tend to agree with Seth here..you people make EXCELLENT work in disrupting communities..
maybe you work in some special agency on communications devastation assingment..

Im posting a poll,and,well..we'll see..If the results will be just as i fear they will be..well,bye-bye TMS...

*edited to add ps*


PS. and,yes freaking stop already yer flaming ! I suppose everything was posted in this thread can be answered by mine last two polls..Hell,do you care,people ??or about people...

Okay, very simple.  What URL do you type into your browser when you come here, topMUDsites.com.

If you wish to discuss socks, it would stand to reason that you would go to this site:



Which appears to be a really neat site about this guy, and his love for socks.

However, if you would like to discuss relevant mud related issues, then we are happy to have you aboard.

And BTW, The mud community that frequents here, and on mudconnector is a very tight knit group. Those that feel we are obscessed with MUDS i have two words for you; No ####!
You think anybody puts up with the #### and hassle that a mudder puts up with without being obscessed? *shrug*

Thats it,
Cainers

the people ASKED for socks..see the suggestions forum..
and,ask you again..SHOW ME SOME RECENT SPAM..
Or stop the hell flaming about how bad it is !

Actually our community was fine for the last couple of years, until you lot turned up.

Excellent! Just two more to go, then. What do I need to vote?

I'll offer a few words as someone who was once the target of flames here by KaVir and Co.

I broke the rules out of ignorance, and got thoroughly roasted for it. In the private forums I go to elsewhere, such flaming is strictly against ToS and anyone flaming someone just because that someone did something wrong would be considered JUST as much in violation of the rules as the person who they were flaming. So I came here with that perspective. And I was flabbergasted, and not just a little irate, when I was treated so poorly.

I still think flames - insults - slamming someone intentionally to make them feel like idiots - is wrong. No matter what the reason.

But in the current trend on these boards, I've seen people try to deal with "violators of the spirit of the boards if not the actual policies" in fairly polite ways. At first. And then it seemed that these "violators" have decided that this is their new playground and if everyone else who's been here for years doesn't like it, then THEY can find a new playground.

I'll tell ya something. THIS AIN'T NO PLAYGROUND. If you want to play, log into a mud and play. That's what muds are for. There are a few focused threads that are great for us as contributors and readers of this forum to relax in. Such as that word association one, and the occasional "continued story" thread.

But socks? Hello? Do you not understand how ridiculous that is? Would you submit a poll about your favorite socks to your high school yearbook? To the daily newspaper in your town?

This is OUR daily newspaper. We love our text-based comic strips, sure. But those comics should only take up 1 or 2 pages within a 50 page paper. At the present time, it is not. At the present time, when I type into the URL buffer and hit enter, the home page shows me an index of current threads. NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH MUDS.

This isn't topComicsites.com. It is topmudsites. If you have nothing to contribute or no interest in reading about the muds, then find another forum to play in.

To wrap this all up - KaVir, I hope you don't put me in the same category as some of the folks here of late. I can see now why you took such a vehement stand, though I disagree with the methods. I apologize for the past, and agree with you on the present.

-Formerly known as Baglady

again and again and I ask you again...

Point me to at least one post that wasnt about muds or stuff ? (yes,socks,I saw it,thanks,anything else in three days ? or in a week ?)
Everyone's quiet ?
Then why by the hell you keep flaming and flaming and flaming some more ?
Cant stop ?
Guys,I think you're REALLY wrong here..
