I am seeing more and more people going into arguments that can eventually lead to flaming. Example:
Person A makes mistake in thread 1. Person B reminds Person A of the mistake and adds an insulting message.
Person B then replies somewhere else and HE makes a mistake. Person A sees it and rubs that mistake in even harder.
This might sound small, but it can lead to some bad blood in the forums. I think something should be done preferably a reply guidelines that shows in EVERY FORUM that mentions courtesy, what should/shouldn't be in posts, as well as the punishments. I think giving advice and getting some should be done politely as opposed to someones shoving in your face, wouldn't you agree?

This needs to be shown to more people... could help solve disputes and manners.
BTW: Great job with the serious discussion YDS. Now I don't see "Do you like money?" threads, which is great.
Can you rename Garbage Forum into General Forum? Garbage sounds pretty awful... unless you like it. Another suggestion: Rather than making the 2 threads (garb, newby) no mineral count, how about making it give less mineral per post than the other forums? Maybe we can also clean more garbage threads out of the forum as well...

I agree with the flaming. I try to delete most of it. What surprises me is that I haven't used my "fine" ability against any spammers/flamers. But, what really gets to me, is that most of the people who flame with their answers are usually wrong half the time...

We (the moderators, staff and admin) are doing all that we can. The forum is getting bigger and bigger and it is becoming hard to check everything. Normal members should help, pming we about the problems so we can go there and fix it as fast as we can. List of people with powers:
Moderators: Clokr_, (U)Bolt_Head
Power warning members, removing/editing posts/topics, closing topics, editing member profiles....
we haven't got power with other features, like DLDB/SC armies/tutorials/store/...
Staff: MiniMoose2707
Power almost everything.
Admin: Yoshi_Da_Sniper
Power: he can change everything.

I appreciate your comments and replies. I thought it was just me who was noticing some of the conflicts...

ya, yoshi has a lot to do, he is mostly trying to get v4 out as soon as he can, so give them a break, after the creation of v4, yoshi will probably try to get somemore people to help out.

Yeah I thought it only recently started to get worse. I felt like I came back after the summer and it was invasion of kids with bad typing skills and big, flithy mouths. I only mod one forum, but I try to keep the flaming and spam down.
