Stupid Posts on forums

Don't you just hate it?

You find a thread that differs from the usually topics and possibly a lighter tone and some guy posts saying i don't want to talk about this, i want to talk about a more important issue. This issue usually has a hundred topics with an average of 4 a day started on this very topic.

WHY POST IF YOU HAVE NOTHING RELEVANT to say? Its frustrating. All it does is boost your post count up slightly and make you look like a total idiot.

Another frustrating point is when people ask a simple question that has been asked so many times before on the same forum. Especially when you do not even have to sign in to use the search bar!

Laws of the forum:
  1. Use the search bar if possible
  2. Only post if you have something relevant and/or constructive to say
  3. be as constructive as possble
  4. don't post three times on the same thread in 3 minutes when you can easily create three quotes in one post and use the edit button if you missed something
  5. Use real words instead of L33t speak "lyk ths m8"
  6. Use clear font and colours
  7. DoN't TyPe LiKe ThIs or lik3 th15
People who constantly break these unwritten laws (now written laws) should be shot as a mercy shot.

(please note: i was joking about the shot)
