The Lounge: Civility and Respect Required

[DoctorFinger]

Here in The Lounge we want to encourage as broad a range of discussions as possible. However, we do demand a certain level of decorum here. Remember above all else that no matter how much you may disagree with an opinion, don't take it out on the person expressing that opinion. Insults, slurs, name-calling, threats and the like will not be tolerated. If you think someone has crossed the line, then hit the 'Report Post' button and an administrator will deal with the offending post or poster.

Remember, we're all just trying to have some fun.

I think starting out with these rules rather than realizing their value through grievous error stunts our growth as Internet personalities. Without depth I fear confinement to Flatland forever.

[BlackPete]

Why? WHY must you limit us? Have you no heart? Now I feel insulted.

[National Kato]

Think of it as a haiku: without limits, how will we find our true selves?

I know my true self...this is why I come to the internets to be my fake self :)

Any location where people are allowed to run rampant would do well in having a moderator. There tends to be little room for civility in heated discussion.

He can pants right off, more like.

[Rakael]

I hate you all! You can all go fu....

Oh! Shiny thing!

[Purple Santa]

I think the title of this thread should be required reading...again. Some threads are going beyond simple good discussion.

Now I'm not a Poet or anything resembling one, but I could sware haikus were 3 lines long.

It was dying a dignified death. Now you just went and poked a coma patient...how sensitive of you :)

Oh sorry, you're not a coma patient. You're just old. :p

I'm almost scared to ask what you poked him with...

Anyway, thread resurrection confirmed, for what it's worth.

I'm not allowed to mention penis anymore, so we'll say I poked him with a sharp stick.

My partner and I call that a DVD. Death Verification Device.

"Are they dead?"

"I dunno, poke em with a stick."

[OldeWolf]

Damnit, my pole woke up the thread's evil puppy. Oh bloody hell...

Every time I come to this thread, I expect Civil to have posted here. Oh, word association...

Haha, nice. I'll have to remember that one.


Cute puppy!

Oh, I do. I just have to keep up my innocence look. http://www.xentales.com/images/smilies/icon_twisted.gif

I don't see why we needed a separate insults thread, this one would have done nicely if it weren't for you fuckwits.

[Purple Santa]

Why do we need to have an insults thread let alone ask why it exists at all where the lead thread is named Civility and Respect Required...irony indeed

[TheCuriousLittleOyster]

Hi everyone...I'm new here just threadsl#tting in an attempt to get familiar with everyone...since this seems to be the puppies/rainbows/group therapy thread I will remember to come back here when I'm in my bad place.

[Squidbot]

Why aren't you in your bad place yet? We're clearly not doing it right.

Hello, and welcome to CoG. Now, about posting in the incorrect forum (http://www.colonyofgamers.com/cogforums/showthread.php?t=267) - do not do it again of you'll find yourself in your "bad place" quicker than it takes to type your user name. You've been warned - I'm watching you. :)

[boratika]

God damned jerk-arse-faced-jerk with a stupid too long name that makes the box on the left too big and breaks up the nice lines and stupid not being able to use all caps and make it look like I'm very angry.


Oh and hi new person. Good to have you on board (no pun intended.)

[TheKeck]

Oh, I guess I will be denied. Oh well.

[TrackZero]

Oh, I guess I will be denied. Oh well.

Shhh. There's a reason why. All will be revealed.

[TheKeck]

Shhh. There's a reason why. All will be revealed.
Eh, ok. :)

[OldeWolf]

Still can't talk about chickens? http://www.xentales.com/images/smilies/suspect.gif

[boratika]

Well...this is all very cryptic.

[TheKeck]

One wonders when all will be revealed.

Hello? Are you ok? Do you need my assistance?

Hello ladies and gentlemen...

I am re-quoting this at this time due to the recent increased levels of harassment that has been happening in the CoG forums. If you feel that you are being unfairly harassed then please send report the specific posts and also send me a PM. I will review your submission and take whatever actions are necessary to bring the trouble to a close. By the way, this is for the all of the forums, not just for The Lounge.

Thank you for your time.

[diablopath]

I should read the forum in its entirety. I miss out on all the drama.

[Jackel]

Yeah. I can see you missing out on a lot if you stick to this thread.

[Blue]

I should read the forum in its entirety. I miss out on all the drama.

I wouldn't bother. I read your mom in her entirety and that just turned out to be a massive waste of time.

[diablopath]

You're a lot like Chris Farley. Without the grace, of course.

No drama here. Voodoo boils them in his famous hot BBQ sauce for anyone who gets out of hand.
