Wonder why the admisitrator decided to let everone post every 60 seconds instead of every 30 seconds? Hmm, a sad day when we are being limited to the amount we can talk about Shania...:( Talk about a lack of freedom of speech. :( Hope it was not my fault for posting so much, I am just excited about Shania. oh well :(

kerawal: "Bwa-ha" is just what it means, sort of a light (edit: would that be light laugh, or lite laugh?) laugh.

jen: Usually you have to have alot of time here, spend alot of time here, know the people, have a good feel of what's right and what goes where and common sense.

jen

Then I think you have a problem and what does Bwa-ha mean?

kerawal
11-14-2002, 3:19am

Uhh, just passing on what a mod once said to me on these forums long ago when I was a n00b.

I changed the "floodcheck" time from 30 to 60 seconds to try to cut down on the number of short, quick replies that have been flooding the board today. Actually 60 seconds is the recomended floodcheck time (with vBulletin) to begin with so we're not doing anything here that's out of the ordinary when it comes to forums like these.

Also, in no way does this take away your freedom of speech. It's just something that makes you wait a minute between posts.

Is there a rule against short replies. We now have a word quota to meet?

There isn't but when you're posting these every 30 seconds just to increase your post count, it's a little annoying.

kerawal
11-14-2002, 3:44am
So you know what everyone is thinking when they post? I see short answers all the time. Anyways, please read my response in the other forum.

This is what I said:

This is pointless anyways. It has nothing to do with Shania. I apologized earlier, and I will do it again- I am sorry. Please let us just move on.

Dear kerawal,

I´m now just putting my own opinion into this topic:

I visited these forums about 12 hours ago (late night my time then). When I checked The Shania Forum, all I could see was topics with your name as the last one. I´m not saying or complaining anything about the level of your comments (mostly because I didn´t read all of them..), but it just made me feel like there´s no sense on starting to read those topics. Just because it made me feel that you´re the only one who´s speaking there. And you´re giving you´re comments on everything. Maybe I´m wrong when I´m thinking that it´d be better if everybody would focus a little bit more and say really something on their posts (including me :rolleyes: ). I really like these forums and always when I come here, I´m willing to read news and comments concerning Shania and her music, at least on Shania forum!!

Please don´t get me wrong, this is just my opinion.

Which means I´m on the mod´s side here :)

Matti

I agree, and thanks for your post. It means a lot. I realize you are just trying to do your job. Everyone gets cranky, which is exactly why I have been so quick to reply to you tonight. Some Things I do not agree with but must abide by. I consider everyone here my family. I come here to learn recent news and to talk about my favorite subject- Shania. We have a lot of opinionated people here today. I apologize again for posting so much and making it seem that I just want to up my pots. I swear to you, that has nothing to do with it. I simply am trying to update people with news and converse with people to learn more news. It is very easy to get carried away, especially when it seem slike you are carrying on a conversation rather than just posting a message. I will work on this and will work on posting short responses. Please accept my apologies again and continue to do a great job. I know it is frustrating when you have stubborn people like me, but all in all, I think we are all on the same side.

Kerawal, you are a man! To respond the way you did, and I thought Mutt was the last. See ya later, as Shania would say "I'm oughtta here!"

Thanks for your fast :funny: :funny: reply!! Btw, did I sound like a mod? Well, I´m not! I was just saying that I understand their (mod´s) opinion in this thing. And of course we´re all in the same side of the boat. Hopefully it just doesn´t fall over :)

But I´m happy that you understood my opinion also. Let´s just keep on admiring Shania, with everybody´s own peculiar fashion.

Matti

The above apology was meant for Matt, administrator. When looking at the reponse from Matti, I just assumed it was Matt.

No need to apologize. I was just a little befuddled when I saw that the last reply on every thread (on the first page of Shania Forum threads) was made by you. At the time, I wasn't sure what you were doing but I'm glad you understand our side of things. No big deal.

SHANIANUTS!
