Quote:What in the bleeding hell? I actually impose rules on ONE SECTION OF THE FORUM, and now suddenly I'm both ice-9 and Hitler. I'm absolutely amazed. If I were ice-9, I would have banned you years ago and deleted about 90% of the posts you make, because in case you don't remember, his rules were astronomically more stringent than any I've ever come up with. No one else thinks I'm ruining Tendo City by imposing a restriction in one of its three dozen forums, and certainly no one else has compared me to ice for doing it. Now who's being a drama queen, hmm?
The rest of Tendo City is and has always been without rules. I have never moderated it and I have no intention of starting now. This part of it, however, has always had rules. And you can argue with me all you want, that's not going to change. So stop complaining about it. I'm not going to bend.
Again, if you don't like it, tough. No one's making you post a review, and if you really want to bad enough, you can follow the rules, just like every other person here who has ever posted a review.
Now please stop acting so childish.
Just remember, it's only one member complaining (insert standard valid list of complaints about OB1 here). Everyone else thinks the rules are a good idea.
OB1: Seriously, we have to tolerate all those garbage posts you love to make in all the other forums... it's nice that they aren't allowed somewhere. I mean, sure, I know you do it to amuse yourself... but it gets so annoying at times... and your stuff in this forum is a textbook case of that, OB1. I'm pretty sure that you're the only one who thinks its funny, or appropriate.
Oh yeah, I actually would support even more standards... you know, such as a standard review system (yes "it's hard to score games", but every gaming site gives scores. And 95% of them have standardized systems... I think it's better. Try to come to an agreement on some system everyone can accept and use it...
Some sites with user-submitted reviews
http://www.gamefaqs.com -- too simple -- text and a 1-10 score, no decimals.
http://www.dmgice.com - nice, standardized format, broken into categories... when i said 'some review system' i was thinking of some kind of template like they have. Maybe not that complex, but something along those lines. http://www.dmgice.com/reviews/info/ (the submission templates)
