Should the rule be enforced?

How about a new rule?

Post by Orgodemirk »

How about we have a new rule that reads as follows.


All Posts must consist of more than 3 words and must make sense corresponding to the topic/category which contains the post.

Any post with less than 3 words or that is not in a topic/category which has something in common with the post it should be moved or deleted unless it is of extreme importance or contains some code.
A glitch?

I say no (not very no) Because I think it should be deleted about the 3 word part but not the other because what if someone posts something that has to do with the topic, but another thing that doesn't in the same post, then another person responds to the part that didn't have stuff to do with the topic? I don't think that should get deleted unless it has less than 3 words. But i say it should have at least 7 words and make sense. :mrgreen: Then what if a really good conversation constructs as it takes place in a topic that doesn't correspond? I think it should stay.
You are better than me.

Sometimes people just don't know what to say, and don't want to waste a post (whatever "waste a post" means). Just let them post their pointless, 3 word replies. I do it all the time.

Errm...every wonder why we make fun of your "does he ever puke" and why we subtract points on the Real of the Unrespectables? o.o

Maybe Becuase you do it all the time.

I'd say yes, not very yes, even though I voted Very yes.

The Realm of Unrespectables is where you do various stuff, with basically pointless topics. Mainly a discussion for general crap.

spideyspiderman2000, that post is total BS, and for that, EVERYONE in the realm votes to subtract another point, putting you to zero. Sorry, you're not longer in the realm. Have a nice day. :spin:

The unrespectable. You don't have the right to post there for nothing, and by being in there, you auto have the ability to moderate general offtopic. Which, again, is not grated to everyone. (unless you'r an admin -.-)
