Denied. You must be 8 or older to make a staff application. Feel free to reapply in feburary 16th, 1996. Not Locking, /c.
Whoa, like, wow. The dude joined March 26th, after these threads were spammed all over the place. He thinks it's pretty funny, and that's okay, because he hasn't seen it before. He doesn't know that it's overdone. Like, don't diss him for it if it's not his fault, he didn't do anything.
Who says we were not playing along and infact were just having a bit on banter like some of the ''You have been denied'' answers these applications get. You may think our answers were 'dissing' him but it is all a bit of fun and friendly banter ;).
It may be intended as banter to you, but to me, it comes off much more as "This thread is useless, just like every single other thread out there." Banter is cool and all, but saying that someone's thread is unoriginal and boring (which is basically what it implies) is pretty detrimental. Or at least, I see it as such. Starting an argument on this thread would make me a hypocrite, so I'm not going to do that... It's just that I feel that more effort should be put into making a newer member feel welcome, and less effort into making him feel like his threads aren't good. At the very least, if you're going to go for friendly banter, it seems far more productive to do it with the newer member instead of with others while inadvertently shutting the newer member down. That's all I really have to say.
Well, everyone has an opinion. All opinions should be respected as I am doing with yours as I speak. If a thread was useless, it doesn't mean I/we think the member is useless. Each member plays a part on the forums today so they will always be welcome and respected unless they treat the rest of the forums with zero respect. But I see this thread as quite useful and fun, but many others will feel the same way as you did too. But the intentions from myself and some other people here were not to shut the new member down. If they felt like that, they could PM us about it. Obviously now with your reasoning, people will think that it was our intentions but to be honest, I know what my intentions were so that is all that matters really from my point of view. People will view comments like ''We have seen tonnes of these before'' as funny and just laugh it off, but there is a few that could feel sensitive about it and take it to heart. For all we know, there is a chance the member could say something like ''Wow these are real funny responses, I might visit here more often'' or feel unwelcome like you said. I don't see the problem unless the comments are directed at the member with vulgarity like ''Wow we have seen lots of these before, gtfo you scrub, you're so unoriginal''. Since comments like these(the ones that were used above) have two outcomes, I do not see an issue as if they felt offended, they could message a member privately and then talk things out. At least then, you know how the member reacts to comments like those so you know not to make the same mistake again.
What? I was just replying to a statement. We are both very mature and know which line not to cross :p.
