Unofficial: Should people who think they are the internet police get a life??

[Mats_44]

Seriously people, there's always someone on the boards who thinks it's his place to tell people what they can and can't post here on the boards. Are you a moderator?? Do you not believe in freedom of speech?

Sorry but it's just lame when the "internet police" come on here and tell people to stop making threads or stop making so many posts, or the one that really kills me, when they try to say something ridiculous like "your threads and posts are clogging up the boards and slowing the server down".

Get a life people, it's just a message board, let people use it for that exact purpose and stop acting like you own these boards.

[MLB_Legends3457]

I believe we should be allowed to post on here as we please as long as there's nothing offensive in the post. These "internet police" really need to get a life. If you don't like the thread, move on. Nobody's forcing you to read it or post in it.

[Mats_44]

Ya, and I also love the people that complain about it because they claim that it ruins the first page of the boards, all the threads they want to see get bumped down to the lower pages.

Ya, that sure is tough to click on the next page to get to the threads you want to read. Boy what a nuissance!!!

[Scout1982]

LOL, I really didn't think that my polls would stir so many people. I don't really know why people even care if I have polls. If it is stupid then people will not respond and it will go away, if it is a good poll that gets people talking then why are we complaining? Don't open the thread. I know all the threads created here are super important so I would hate to see them drop to page 2. Relax people. Thought I could post these here and have some positive support. Which for the most part I have been getting in the responses. I appreciate everyone's participation. I will stop with the polls....

[Mats_44]

It's the same old crap in here Scout, always someone here who gets on his high horse and thinks he is holier than thou and tells people how they should be posting on a message board. It never fails.

[Titanhorns]

YES!!!

[Mats_44]

I wonder who the 2 people are who voted No?? LOL

[Titanhorns]

Especially when the thread is a sports-related one...who cares?

[Scout1982]

Doesn't matter to me.....so I have to stop posting if I the poll shows that the democracy has spoken?

[Sanghelli]

I hate to say it, but this thread has a faint odor of "internet police" itself. :D

[starscream's ghost]

as one of those people, i say no. we have a life. it's to police jerks like you and to correct spelling and grammar mistakes. we rule, damn it! we rule

My poll about your polls was just a joke.:p

Guess the OP of this 'poll' doesn't have a sense of humor.

[Scout1982]

How about being respectful to others on this message board?

If you want to post stupid poll threads, how about doing one a week and then end that poll?

Respectful? How am I being disrespectful? Obviously you don't understand the logic of a message board and how it works. You create a thread and if it is stupid, then people will not respond to it. What happens when there is no response? WOW the thread leaves the first page. Crazy how that works. If people are posting in there, then they are all disrespectful to others as well. How dare people post here. Tisk Tisk :rolleyes:

Read your own response and see how respectful you are being yourself jack.

[SpawnSculptor]

Wow - the two ass jacks who dont like the polls -

Whats your deals?

I mean really. You know it's just a message board right? Come on guys - grow up a tad.

[Scout1982]

Your polls and threads are really stupid, pointless, and worthless. I can understand why someone might not want to see 10+ poll threads on the first page concerning nothing important.

TMP just announced the 2009 NFL lineups. I doubt they will even start thinking about the 2010 NFL lineups until the 2009 season starts.

As for the Legends, TMP can only get the former players who will sign a contract at a reasonable price.

I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT MCFARLANE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

LOL. Fair enough, but at least my policing system accounts for basic human civil rights!! :D

Wow so if it's not on the first page then you're not smart enough to click on the second page???

LOL!!!!!!!! Are you serious??? Oh my god. Unreal.

[aus collector]

Mats_44 your in trouble when the Riddler find this.

Might go post in the other threads to keep them bumped.

[Mats_44]

LOL

[The Trove]

Reminds me of an old thread here on Spawn, I believe the boards were still "black", someone complained about some internet police boardie, asking: "Did you go to a school or College to become the police here?" and the other one answered: "Yes, I went to FU". I can't remember who were the boardies.

[MapleLeafs20]

I'm not going to spill any more beans then this:

But scout does have justified reasons related to these polls.

[SpawnSculptor]

I'll tip another bean and say yes- yes he is justified.

I think Ill-timed is the more accurate term to describe them. The 2009 lineups were JUST announced and there's polls for 2010? Kinda jumping the gun IMO.

[SpawnSculptor]

One more effin time-

WHO THE F*** SAID THIS WAS FOR McFARLANE!!!??? DUMB PEOPLE PISS ME THE F*** OFF!!!!!

IF THERE WAS A WAY TO MAKE THE FONT LARGER I WOULD!!!! THIS IS NOT FOR McFARLANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, then it begs the question: why is it on the McFarlane message boards?:p;)

[SpawnSculptor]

Very simple - This is where the people who know the product go...

Market Research is not saying "Oh we're making these, who do you like out of the lot..."

It's getting feed back by those, like yourself, to know what direction one should go in based on that feed back.

I know the people on this board for the majority aren't dumb - this is an expensive hobby from time to time and to be able to afford it, you were smart enough to either A, go to school and get a god job, or B rob a bank and not get caught.

[Thorondor 33]

Way to many internet cops on the Sports BST board, IMO.

He doesn't even realize what the polls are all about and he is ripping them. :D

I am with ya. I even got a "warning" from one of the mods for talking down to one these "official" folks you talk of. I do believe that people forget this is a toy board.

[AaronG]

Make sure you put WRONG BOARD on every thread as well!!

YOU CAN MAKE THE FONT BIGGER!! AND ALSO SMALLER
FROM YOUR FRIENDLY INTERNET POLICE :D

[Rob Buff]

I think the people that post here 24 hrs a day need to get a life before the so called internet police do.

[prripper]

people with 10,000 + posts are cool!!! I can only aspire to be one!

POWER TO THE USELESS POLLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Voodoo Chylde]

So he is doing market research about which sports figures would sell/be most in demand on the message board of a company that sells sports figures.

That is the equivalent of Coke doing market research on the message board/website of Pepsi.



Ummm, they do. They also perform surveys and research on Fuze, Sobe, Snapple and every other softdrink's message boards. Pepsi does the same and you'd better believe Todd or his reps visit other action figure and sports boards as well.

They are publicly accessible message boards not proprietary intellectual property repositories. If he was hacking inot Todd's servers that would be a different story.

[drunkenmstr]

I wonder who the 2 people are who voted No?? LOL

i voted "no" just now only to get the numbers closer

[Patriots2421]

You know else bugs me on the internet? People who think they are expressing themselves by just adding the word SUCKS to anything. Do you really think you are worth a dang if all you ever did was take someones creation and hard work and just add "SUCKS"?

....you've really accomplished a lot, like we care about your opinion.

[madcracker]

It's a pretty easy process. Of all the polls I saw over the weekend, I believe I only clicked on one of them (The CFL figure poll). I don't even know who created that one and I'm too lazy to go check now. Hell, I can't even remember if I clicked on any others.

I did not click on the other polls (the unofficial... QB/RB/WR editions). I think those were Scout's.

Wow, now that I read what I typed, I didn't really add much to this conversation. God damn it.

Anyway. My point was, I didn't care for the other polls so I didn't click on them. It's so easy that even Toight could figure it out. Then again...

[Mats_44]

Way to many internet cops on the Sports BST board, IMO.

That clearly seems to be the case given that 16 people have voted No on this poll!!

My god how lame are these boards?? LOL

[Mats_44]

That is the equivalent of Coke doing market research on the message board/website of Pepsi.

Then he should be banned from these message boards.

Also, for someone insulting the intelligence of others, you should learn to spell - "feedback" is one word.

Wow, what's it like living in Mom's basement??

[Mats_44]

I think the people that post here 24 hrs a day need to get a life before the so called internet police do.

That may be so but I'd much rather be friends with the 24 hour guy than the guy who thinks he's above everyone else.

[Mats_44]

i voted "no" just now only to get the numbers closer

LOL ya I figured there would be some of that going on. No worries, you can't beat logic here. Brains will prevail. :D

Well I know you are lying because you clicked on this poll too!!! :p :D

Apparently someone agreed there were too many polls....since they're all gone now.
