Alright. I'm getting tired of this. Starting at post 7 (edit: now it's post 1 after the split) this thread doesn't have a single redeeming post.

Austin is bothered by people that are posting what basically boils down to content-less posts. If all you're doing is laughing at or agreeing with the poster above you in the majority of your posts, you're not really contributing to the board, what you're doing is post-whoring.

Now, whether or not Austin is hyper-sensitive to these posts, the bottom line is that some of you are now intentionally going out of your way to piss him off. If you're gonna post-whore, fine... but if you're gonna do it to purposely piss off another member that's specifically explained that it bothers him, I'm gonna start deleting posts. And if I have to waste a lot of my time deleting posts, I'm gonna start banning people.

Now, Austin's not the only person that's being bothered by post-whores. I've had several other members, long before this recent issue, that have complained about the level of "noise" around here. And BOO isn't the only person that I've had complaints about. Normally I'm all for letting things slide, but if people are complaining, I'm certainly more apt to side w/ those who have been contributing more tech and more content than those that are just posting to post.

So everyone... cool it a bit before this mess gets bigger than it's already become.
