    You wanna know my opinion?

    I am sick and tired of the strict as nature of this entire forum this board only cares about the money it's making from all the users and traffic that are coming to it they don't give two shits about the member base! I mean come on!

    I'm tired of getting a infraction every time I miss a forum description or misunderstand something.

    Recently I posted a fucking Help Wanted thread in the services where supposedly "job listings" are suppose to go but apparently they go under "Cheap Stuff" if they don't pay anything. Although I am pretty positive a Volunteer job isn't "cheap stuff" it's a job listing....if I where to post a internship offer in services I suppose it'd go to Cheap stuff to? Even though their is always a potential for the intern to get paid?

    I don't even think moderators look things over before they move and infract people, the staff here are way to power driven and I don't really think they even participate within the community at all they just sit on their asses and moderate each report they get and just assume the reportee is the one that is correct and the other half never get's a say in what is going on.


    All in all this forum is shit and I will never recommend anyone using it, it's not even good quality there are forums much like DP out there that don't have poles shoved so fucking far up their asses.

    This will be the last you hear from me good day.

    An infraction really isn't a big deal, but okay... {shrug}

    Kind of reminds me of this post...

    I realise this has nothing to do with me but seriously WhySoSerious, it's an absolute necessity to be strict with a forum this size, and with some of the types of people which are amongst the userbase here (and everywhere else this size).

    If DP wasn't so strict you would instead be crying that people were flaming your threads, scamming, and spamming everything.

    And I talk as a person who in turn has received infractions for mistakes. But firstly, they're just a warning (which expires, so whats the problem?), and secondly, they're there to make you learn the rules / how to conduct yourself.. And the rules really are pretty simple.

    And an added note - there aren't actually many rules to learn on DP. If you're getting infractions then take 5 minutes to locate the FAQ/Rules and some stickies in your most used forum sections, and after that you should never get an infraction again.
