Who else think unrelated pic threads should be stopped Posted on: 05.08.2011 by Loralee Erban Its come to the stage where you are trying to read posts about an intesting subject that may actually be relevant and when you scroll down and see the name of one of a handfull of members you pretty much know an unrelated picture is coming up with some shitty remark under it.This community is going to end up turning into a joke. The same people seem to keep derailing threads with this utter and blatant spam... This is what the off topic section was about but it seems like some people are just pretty much jumping up and down waving saying "look at me" now I know there are some younger members on the site and we need to respect their childish antics but at the end of the day this is an informative help site dedicated to djing not "google images" Who else finds this annoying and believes it should just be kept in the off topic section?? | |

s is a good thing. Sometimes though, those supposedly funny pics are being used to stop or derail discussions just because some guy doesn't like the way they're going. Or even the topic. Man, how much I hate those stupid "this again" and "Epic fail" pics interrupting other people's discussions. Be funny, people. Just don't be disrespectful. |

| Temple Guffin 06.08.2011 | haha.. safe!! I'm not to sure I've noticed a pic that derailed a thread.. maybe a thread that was already on its way down.. I usually laugh at most of them. then continue with the discussion.. like mr. mod said.. if its the picture is in fact off topic.. report it and he'll take care of it. For me.. I probably will never report a pic because I don't ever see a picture distracting me from the topic at hand! |
| Teresia Janusch 06.08.2011 | who cares? why can it not be kept light hearted? |

| Leeanna Ayla 05.08.2011 | Report the post by clicking the little triangle and I'll do my best to curb it. If it's an OT post though then it's fair game. |
| Julissa Serrone 05.08.2011 | I believe they are funny and entertaining. ....waits for some crazy pictures to end up on this thread |
| May Artman 05.08.2011 | Tbh the threads that turn into image wars and the threads with reasonable discussions are pretty much mutually exclusive, so I don't really see an issue. The only threads getting spammed are already shitstorms. |
| Loralee Erban 05.08.2011 | True, but it would be nice to leave it in a certain section, if people start getting 24 hour bans it will fix this straight away, just a pain when you see a genuine question which you either want to know the answer or know the answer ill look down see photos and end up just going to the next thread since im not going to siv through random shit to see if someones already answered it or to see if what I want to know has been answered, picture embedding isnt really needed, just a link if its on topic. |
| Spencer Kilcoyne 05.08.2011 | Meh, just let it wash over you chap. there's no point getting wound up about it - that way leads to rage and stress induced heeart attacks. I've been involved in community s where the silliness factor was removed via editorial control/the banhammer and it died as it was fucking boring by the end. |
