Pointless posting

And here... http://www.habboxforum.com/showthrea...93#post7799093

I join the thread, I say my preference and I also say 'I don't really consider this a debate'

Undertaker joins, says his preference, says it is a debate.

I comment on him saying it was a debate, and I get warned because I didn't state my preference... even though I already did. As I said earlier, I find it stupid to constantly having to go [OT; Family Guy] on every post in order to contribute to the thread.

And no, old examples are fine, although that was from a different moderator who's not in the department now...

and with that thread, no, I guess your post wasn't pointless as its something you'd have like to said to someone.

I notice Chris removed an edit on your first post of "hiya" but you then posted again saying "hiya again" so I could see why a mod would look at that as pointless :P

And maybe MODs looked at my post wrong, I said "Hiya" and then "Hiya again" as something I wanted to say. Not "Hiya" and I would like to say "Hiya" again... Just strange that I get warned for it, yet I'm sure I could find you many examples of people saying the same thing is What you wear/What you eat/What you watch/What you listen :P

And hey, just because my examples are old doesn't mean they're not relevant :P Here's another old example that I think is unfair, being warned for posting something in the 'Things you want to say to another person' which can be LITERALLY ANYTHING...

And way back in the day I got warned for a pointless post because I didn't refer to the topic title in every post, even though I was going with the flow of the thread, got this one reversed though :P

So it was a lot worse a year or so ago I would say...

If it hasn't got anything to do with the thread or as in the rules it is something like 'roflcopter' 'ierutjikfd' i'd class it as a pointless post. Also if you are answering/replying to another persons question I don't think it should be pointless if you don't exactly answer to what the thread starter is talking about. I think before any of us try to edit it as a pointless post, I think we really need to think and look at it thoroughly before we actually do anything.

I think that really is the issue here. Most of these pointless post examples people are bringing up are referring to something that is happening or was mentioned in the thread - it's just not referring to the title topic directly. Especially whoever posted the comment about the flagpole... How on earth is that one pointless? :P

It was reported and there was a moderator online for that section so i sent it to them without actually taking a good look myself, which i should have :$

Yeah I agree that flagpole post shouldn't be classed as pointless.
