RIGHT!

You fit the finger in the ass hole! However, the mods receive a training that allow them to be candidades to the Senate at least,,, heh heh heh,,,

(to say the truth, perhaps the Seminary could the right place instead of,,, sometimes I did notice sooooooo cloyness and bitter comments,,, poor guys!)

i do understand the reason why it got locked, and i agree with it,
the reason why this all annoys me is, i'm kinda ashamed for Amy, what will she be thinking when she comes back and read things over? i'm not saying it sohould be removed, but i would like to say to the ones who made it get locked... think before you post and think about who can read it...

I was really very upset of this but mods were forced to do so due the continous dropping of colders posting shit and further reactions of exodites (heh heh heh,,, I love this word!)... Amy didn't deserve such lockings anyhow,,, but,,, probably things could getting worse.

Has it been thought of to when a person starts a membership w/ the evboard to automatically be routed through each of those threads? I can guarantee that about 90% of the members that are joining now don't remotely look at those, they just get post happy. Little_onw said that one time, people had a thing for posting and starting threads just to get their post count up. Notice how I don't post all that much. If I find something interesting to say, I put my 2 cents worth in, thats about it. But thank you HEAD for starting this thread. It was needed, and it should be the first thread that people are directed to before they start posting.

I really didn't want to have to post this, but I feel it's necessary to refresh some memories. It's kind of long, but if you want to stay around, it's an absolute must to read.

Do not speak like this. It will make mods not like you. There are international members here that are trying to learn English. Don't make them fail a test by posting like this "2 b or not 2 b. Dat is da ?"
Please be considerate.

"You" is not to be discussed. It's Amy's song. It doesn't have to do with the quality of the song (who are we talking about?). It's not even about what the song is about. Evanescence/Amy Lee has given us so much already. Give a little respect back.

For those who have seen the Amy Lee pictures, please DO NOT ask how Bonnie Lee died. Unless the Lees feel like sharing the information, please be considerate.

Search and read before you decide something is worthy of posting.
Do not say that you're lazy and can't find something. There are literally thousands of facts that you can find just by searching or PMing someone who's been on here for a while.

Use common sense.

Take the mods seriously, but don't take what the mods say personally. That's one of the biggest problems. The mods here do not deserve being called Nazis. They're strict, but only because they want to keep the boards under control. There's a saying: "If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen."
Do you want the O-board?
"OMG lyk3 Eferecense rulz j00! I luv her!!!111oneonetwo"

If not, then for the love of God, please LISTEN TO THEM!!!!!!!

"OMG Evanescence, please come to..."-No. They do not get to pick where they want to go. Bitch at Wind-up.

DO NOT say you will kill yourselves if you miss a band member posting. It makes us sympathetic and it makes you sound pathetic. I may never get to see them, but I won't slit my wrists for it.

Try not to PM band members/band members families because they may not get to all of them and we all want to see them post something out here so that everybody can read and postwhore later And if they don't answer you, then follow the rule above this one.

Don't ever announce you're leaving. If you have to announce that, do it in PMs.

Don't be stalkerish.

Don't ever say you know the name of a Backstreet Boy...oh shit

And for God sakes have some fun.

I'd like to add that if you think the mods are being pissy at you for no reason, this post gives the mods the justification to do so. If you get banned, it's probably your own fault.

::stands up in a large crowd ans slowly begins to clap::

I figure if some Evboarders learn by example, then they would not get banned. I hope this in some way works

Wow, I just read all of the threads that Cfw linked to. Some interesting stuff, but maybe it'll help me not get banned.

members should know the DO's and DONT's first before posting

seriously!!! how hard is it to just read and abide by the "do's and dont's"?!?! look when i joined and how many posts i've posted...i'm a nOOOOOOOb and then some and even i know the rules...i honestly read thru all of them. that shit pisses me off...and, again, i'm a n00b. that says something, i hate redundancy.

hold on, that was redundant of me...sorry

:sends self to corner for "timeout":

I was kind of suprised... for awhile the Locked post count was down but with in the last couple of weeks its seems to be up again. Yes its a little frustrating i guess what i dont get is how some people just cant read~
