Pointless post rule

[Axel]

I am seriously starting to think it was a bad idea to scrap the rule, considering certain people (not pointing any fingers) are abusing the privilege to pointless post and get away with it. It's just getting really annoying.

Btw I guess it's a bit bad me saying this because I've been pointless posting alot too to try and get the original pointless poster, and just failing.

They scrapped the rule?

It does get annoying, but I didnt know it was scrapped :S I learn something new everyday :8

if it is scrapped or not, it should either be brought back or enforced more.

edit:
its still there
C14. Do not make pointless posts - It is not allowed to post any messages that others consider to be meaningless or pointless or not relevant to the discussion.

should definetly be enforced more due to certain forum members abusing this rule a lot.

I agree with you 100%
Its annoying going into threads and your reading the whole thing then all of a sudden you see something compleatly irrevellent to the topic.

Wth Kyle♥ had 400 posts 4ish days ago. I couldn't get on Hxf, next post I read of his he has 900? Man this rule needs to be enforced.

This rule needs to be reinstated. Why would you take it away anyway? Stupid people who think having a high post count is cool will now roam the forums.

It wasnt scrapped, theres just no infraction for it.
It was removed because we felt it was a little too harsh and it seemed a little over the top to punish for something as minor as pointless posting.
Currently the rule states that we must edit the post with a formal warning and issue no infractions or warnings unless it is repeated pointless posting in which case a formal warning PM would be in order or perhaps further action from a Super Moderator

But some people on this forum instead of saying what they have to say in 1 post they spread it out over a number of posts to try and increase there post count even more *cough* Kyle *cough*
