Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
Sorry for this... I know it should be in the Watchtower but BKS is the Frontroom Floydian....
I don't want to offend you BKS, but I think you're a bit to harsh with the guys.... Of course, the posts with"Post your email" should be locked but for example, the one with Speak Bartixan, nooo.....
What do you guys think?!

Been to:
Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.
A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

bartix is always funny. how ever, we already have an open bartix thread(the first was closed). Do we really need another?
Though i still think it should have been left open
Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
I've always thought he was a bit ham-handed with shutting spam threads down here, but hey. He's the boss and they aren't threads I care about, anyway.
Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
Pfft, BKS is fine, a great mod!

GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

No one said he was a bad mod, I think he's quite good. Maybe trigger happy, but a good mod.
Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
I hope he locks this thread. +1
Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
I think that BKS is doing a fine job.

This should be in the watchtower.
(And no, hes done a good job.)
Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
I thought it annoying, but I wasn't being forced to read it.
That said, harsh is GOOD. Who here wouldn't want to be called name the Harsh?

Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
Lets see. Not really to be honest if you want to up post count through spam theres the 1 word story thread. So in the case od spam BKS is not being harsh. But still you should never close a thread on Bartix. Never. Bartix rocks!

Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
I'm not going to lock this, as I'm concerned that people think I'm being unfair. I'd like to rectify that.
To be fair to the original poster, the Bartix thread was the only thread I've closed in a while as spam that I actually paused for thought over. But, I have to make a judgement call, and I did. I'll repeat my mantra-if you want to raise your post count, do it in the OWS, or one of the picture threads-not by the typing of what I imagine is nonsense to most members.

Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
nah, it's all good. besides, it's not like he came into the bartixian thread and just closed it.. he did it in bartixian! style has to count for something.
now i'm here, and history is vindicated.
Re : Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
Hear! Hear!
Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
besides, the real problem is that that thread was unnecessary; there's already a "speak your own language" thread, isn't there? bartixian is definitely abokasee's own language..
now i'm here, and history is vindicated.
Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
BKS is IMO not harsh enough when it comes to some of these weird threads, but that's just me.

Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
I agree with navaros & SM. I was one of those who originally agitated for a frontroom, an OT forum with no politics, but lately theres so much trash flying around the place I really can't be bothered with it. It seems like its a place where a handful of members post pointless threads and spam their postcounts.say BKS is a great mod and my only beef with his modding is that he does not close each and every spam thread immediately
Frontroom was so much better before the "culture of spam" took it over
Rob, you go after that spam like you're a rocket wielding Jug hunting panzers!
"I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."

i say, ban all spam from this site. period.
Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
I see some pretty crazy threads in the frontroom right now(name of alien kid), so no definetly not harsh, though Bartix is funny there is already two open threads about it right now, so enough is enough...

Re: Isn't BKS a bit too harsh?!
Nah, BKS had to put his foot down at one point and maybe at some point he will ease off a bit, but he is a great mod and is not being too harsh.
