at least on i r c, they can exact discipline quicker.

yes and no. the few times that i have got on, there is not a lot of general
chatter going on. i think most people are in private chats, so it would be
hard (in them) to exact discipline, as you say. but then on the other hand, in
the general chat, it would be very easy.

agreed. eliminate the plethora of "thank you from ..." posts.
and admittedly the useless banter that occurs too (i'm guilty of engaging in
said banter) and also eliminates any digression from the topic.

i also agree. i would therefore remove the section in the forum page also.
with no discussion about the ep there, there is no real need to enter it from
the forums page, only the front page, where the torrent is available, and
possibly even on the show's main page.

"i'm always right. i'm only wrong when i say i'm not right"

ever reside in those channels where people just have to post the pre time first
before anyone else?
i guess the ones who said "thanks from ______, first post!!" on these forums
are cut from the same mold.
either way... what a douche.

as if the "thank you from ..." posts in the individual release threads aren't
enough.. a thread dedicated to that now?!
well i guess it's at least a step forward. concentrating it on one post is
better than mass thanking on several. but.. the problem has not been solved.
let the admins iron out a solution i say. i trust they have a better
understanding of what needs to be done.

now if only we can dustify the actual people who are posting these "thank
yous" ... then well.. that'd just be icing on the cake.

we're referring to very specific forms of expressing appreciation though. it's
these specific kinds that are unnecessary. it just gets to the point where
it's not very genuine anymore and just very fake and ego driven.

god, how are you anyway? haven't heard much from you lately. only a quick
snipe here and there.
i think we need another debate to get things rolling along again. what do you
think? any suggestions for topics?
