Yeah. I thought maybe people could use it properly, instead of just using it for a place to unload their verbal diarrhea or press the smiley buttons. But enough time has passed to see the majority of this forum has an IQ of below 75, and does not listen to reason or even know what that is. Maybe someday we'll bring it back if I can get some real moderation options for it.

One appears to be slightly angered by this situation at hand.
I think it's obvious people will troll a shoutbox, after all... This is the internet.

I personally hated that shoutbox. I'm glad it's done with. Just a bunch of annoying f*ckers and all they did was spam the crap out of it and never really talked about anything.

I have to agree with that. people got dumb when it appeared... I just wish we had it and used it just like in real life with friend. Couple stupid things to say, but then hey! speaking with them. Only thing people found out to do was to post stupid pictures of 18+ related stuff and saying shit and whatnot about their crap. I wasn't pissed by seeing the trollage, because there wasn't that much. Still, there was. I don't really know where this thing is going. Seems like laws and rules become more strict each fucking week. Oh well, what could i say, seems like i'm not old enough here or doesn't have enough seniority to have my words accounted.

Corby not everyone was to blame. But those who were to blame were warned several times about spamming the shoutbox with smiley's. That was one of the biggest issues. I understand that yea its a box to just shout random stuff in but sometimes people were Fucking retarded. Thay shoutbox was not there as a trashy garbage mouth spewfest. And it was damn sure not there for trolling. I don't know what forum some of you guys have been to but all the sim forums I have been to don't allow trolling or spamming in the shoutbox. All you guys had to do was follow some simple rules. And a select few retards couldn't even do that. And yes I called you retards. You know who you are and you deserve it.

Commenting what i highlighted. Yeah, you are right, we went the same place. But there was a thread somewhere where we could let the thing off to troll a tad bit. Not maximum trollage stuff (hasn't been allowed on where i went) but still, there was a certain amount of flexibility given out by staff member. This was given here, but like you said, some retard just fucked it up. To those retards: GO FUCK YOURSELF. thanks

Just kidding. ====================================================================================================== On a serious note, I tried not to be dumb in there, lol. I think I wasn't one of the bad ones, I'm not sure though.

A shoutbox is for dropping in to say hi to everyone on the forum. Comment about something, or a short blurb about something related to the forum. It's not there to bother people in any way shape or form, that includes trolling. Alot of what people call trolling is just spam. It's literally pointless garbage. And not only were some of you just contributing, it seems like some of you linger around the forum just for that purpose. If you want to spam smileys, or just do completely retarded incoherent shit..... find a chat room or something because you're in the wrong place. What more is there to say, really......

I'm pretty sure if you guys really wanted to talk about shit, you could've just used the generic discussions thread... But yeah that shoutbox was brutally abused. The only things I used it for was little notes I made that I felt didn't need their own thread for, and at first the occasional mistaking it for a quick reply. After people started posting nothing but spam and smileys, and new guys started using it to get more attention to their game-related questions, and a random dude that doesn't speak english would post "gracias", I stopped wanting to even look at it. That being said, good riddance. I'm thinking if you want a shoutbox, there has to be a feature first to remove priveliges from any members that start spewing garbage so they cant even see it, but others who are either more self-controlled or civil still can. enough time has passed to see the majority of this forum has an IQ of below 75, and does not listen to reason or even know what that is. Enough time? Shit Chris, I could see that for almost all the time this forum's been around.

Glad it's gone, all I would see was gobbeltygook and not anything really worth looking at or reading, it also makes the forum look that much more unprofessional, a new member who wants to get to know the place and they see those individuals fooling around in the shoutbox, it really leaves an impression on them that the forum really consists of idiots, when in fact it doesn't.
