Animation Source Forums

Ok this topic is for if you need to let something out that is upsetting you we will all try to help comfort you and to help in any way we can, so no posting upsetting stuff anywhere else ok.

Also if you need to complain here is where to do it, so please do not do it anywhere else, please and thank you.

Sorry if im sounding mean, im not trying to, but Togo asked me to do it this way so as a member I give him my respect in doing this way.

No offense, but aren't there enough complaint topics already?

I think Ecliptica has a very good idea here. Of course, it should be more expansive than just a single thread. It should be a separate forum folder. There are valid reasons to have a "rant" section, so long as it is moderated (and FAIRLY ADMINISTERED), as I pointed out in Balto's thread about "Why lock...?".

If there are "enough complaints", there is probably a good reason (or good reasons). People have a right to complain. Their complaints should not be stifled or locked before they've been resolved. That only fosters animosity and affects the quality and size of the membership of Balto Source. NOR should they have to deal with flaming, baiting and bullying by other forum members who don't happen to like or agree with their complaints. That is entirely unacceptable. And it is the sole job of the moderators to insure that such things do not happen. When they allow it to, or moderate it with an uneven hand, it is a marked failure of the system.

I agree with what Balto Seppala said, very good idea Ecliptica although I have nothing to complain about exept the fact that some people have been very disrespectful and rude to others here so much so that many are now leaving BS for good, all I ask is that people show a bit more respect to other people, it's not just words that you see, behind them are people that have feelings and some have been hurt by what other people have said, just show more respect and be aware of other peoples feelings.

are u saying that im winny?

Whining and complaining shouldn't really be aloud on the board, period. If you need to whine, talk to somebody on your YIM, AIM, or whatever you use, list. Or go to Live Journal. When people come here, they don't want to read somebody's life issues when they have their own to deal with.

The same can be said with those "Should I leave" threads. If you're going to leave, just do it and don't make a thread about it.
