  • How should one act on a forum?

    Specifically this forum? Honest question.

    Dorothy : How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
    Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
    Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

    No clue. I'm guessing trying to be helpful isn't quite how we should be acting.

      In a forum such as this, I like to think I am helpful and assist in problem solving, offer support and gain knowledge myself through the activities of others in the area. I can certainly admit to being a bit hot headed at times and should probably leave certain threads alone.

        Depends on the forum. I use to go to a lot of other forums but this is the only one I go to anymore. This forum has very little drama.

          This.

          I don't think I'm gonna jump into telling anybody how they "should" behave on this forum because there are form rules that tell us what goes and what doesn't and as long as they are followed and enforced, there's nothing more I could ask for.

            My grandmother use to say........."Act like you got some sense..........be on your best behavior ." This was a part of my core foundation as I grew up . I carry this with me to this day .


            I think that one should act/behave in a matter that shows at least a basic amount of respect for the Box community and for the Box itself . Ones first initial goal should be to offer help.....to educate....to enlighten....and also learn . Also , one should have an open mind towards others who may do things a little differently or who may think differently . Lately , we have had quite the opposite on the Box . I've noticed that quite a few members tend to use the Box as a place to start drama . The same members post in threads with nothing helpful to say . They merely post in order to instigate....agitate.......and basically fuel drama . I'll be so glad when this era in our society where it is cool to be rude....cool to be the a** hole......cool to be a jerk..... Is over and Dead .

                  No. I'm just a person asking a question.

                      Lol, no you're not. You're "the bearded one", and the bearded one is not exactly just a person asking a question.

                        Supadave is right, this forum has gotten a little out of hand. The constant bullying and intimidation is ridiculous. What happened to the golden rule "treat others the way you want to be treated". When I started this forum was helpful and the people were nice. Now the "usual suspects" do the best they can to piss people off, without actually helping anyone or contributing whatsoever to this forum or the members on it
