are you saying 50 is too high?[/quote]

yes I am.

why? because I have only 26 :Naughty:

~j0B[/quote]

do you want to retain the opportunity to reach 50 posts? :evil:[/quote]

is it that you do not understand any criticism? or what do you mean by saying that?[/quote]

I just think you don't get it or ever will. No matter where you go in life there will be rules set for you. Whether you go to work, someones home, arena or country. You are a guest and you WILL follow the rules.

It is a priviledge to be a part of this community. The people who run this joint have worked really hard in making it interesting and fun to be here. So forget about bring up "Oh MS are just communists" arguement b/c people have tried and have failed...miserabley. Try your best and if you still have probs...EAT SHIT. Thank you for coming out. :RockOn:

Re:: RETURN OF THE SPAMMERS ??

My newbie $.02 -- 50 post minimum seems fair enough to me. That's no problem. Even 100 post minimum would be fine with me. 5 posts per day seems a little much. Some of us have lives, and some of us don't work on a computer all day. However, an inactivity period of, say, 10 days, or less than 1-2 posts per day seems fair to warrant banning from downloads. I'm sure a 5 posts per day minimum would bring about tons of spam. Anyway, it's not up to me.

i think everybody with less than 50 posts should pm E with no less than 100 words on why you deserve to download :lol:

dont judge them. some people who have the time to look up passwords and download sets really dont have the 3 seconds it takes to post a comment :Rolling:

-or-

we should have a download section for members with 100+ posts, and another section for people with less, with oakenfold sets and such :lol:

I was just curious as to what you meant thats all. I mean I know alot of people dont work on computers all day. But 50 posts isnt really that much to ask considering what this site and the people that run it offer. There are plenty of good threads to drop a post or 2 a day. IMO

Also, going along the lines of the daily post comments.. maybe weekly instead, so like what was said earlier, people dont just go "Pataky" on us and post nonsense to keep their d/l priv's

#238405Post 53 of 102

I love these thread :) They bring out all the noobs and haters. Bring it on..and thanks in advance for all the quality entertainment that these rules will bring!

#238430Post 55 of 102

I completely understand why you would implement this but I just find it a pain when I had about 100 posts on the old forum and it took me ages to do that. I don't have that much to say, maybe 2-3 posts a week so its going to take me a while to get back up to the limit. Priority must be given to those who really make this an active community but its hard to find a balance between privlidges for worthwhile contributors or inane bullshit.

That is complete bullshit your first statement, for the most part we are a bunch of slackers at work, I know I damn well am, and with the recent addition of the game mods my bosses have been on my ass all day since monday... Instead of taking 3 seconds to get a p-word and download page, take 60 seconds of your workday.

1-10 Seconds find a post worth reading a lil up on. 11-25 Seconds use your pudgy little thumbs to write a semi-meaningful post (Okay if your gonna spam just tell the other members so we know not to give you any access...) 26-36 Seconds wait for pages to refresh and get some joy in your pants at a reply! 37-60 Enjoy reading the reply if any, jerk off, take a sip of coffee, finish jizzing in your bosses coffee and call it a workday, enjoy your download.

That is what I do every morning at 7:30 am w/0 the jizz in the bosses coffee cause she don't drink coffee. I just tell her that the directors are walking around so I can watch her scramble like a roach and try and hide.

A system does need to be put in place but it would be funny to give some lame ass spammer a John Marsh set... Hell I wouldn't go as far as to give them Oakenfold, no one I REPEAT NO ONE deserves that punishment.

#238459Post 58 of 102

It just encourages quantity, not quality, thats all There's a lack of quality already thanks to the people like fumanchu who admit to using forums instead of actually working

Exactly - downloads are just a bonus. MS is for those who contribute - the more you give, the more you get. It's a bit like life really, err... :shock:

Re:: RETURN OF THE SPAMMERS ??

i think by making a minimum post limit to the forum, is a good decision to keep the forum alive because afterall, mercuryserver is a forum, not a download link first time if i recall well the minimum post limit came was in winter when digweed paused his friday night mix on kiss and the activity at the forum reached a low level its a good decision i ll try to make as much posts to this forum as i can thanks! :RockOn:
