Awww, and that's why you're one of my consentidas . You have like one of the bestest memories around here or whatever. Hello.


Moderators! Yes, yes, Daeveed! We need that so badly! Although, I kinda hate forums with moderators. Political correctness can be so snorish.

This foro needs a couple of the regulars to be made Moderators.


With a moderatosconstantly lurking and participating, this Foro would get much more interesting, and less annoying.


the moderator could:


- Move topics to the appropriate category


- Remove inappropriate posts/topics


- Ban users


- Make fun of newbies


- Maybe add features...etc.


 


Admin can now do all these things, but it takes days to make requests/changes effective...and that's annoying.

Can someone post links with threads exemplifying 'how great' the Foro 'used to be'?


Like any social community that is not regulated, when the number of members increase you can expect a lot of nonsense and frivolous behaviour.


What probably started out as a source of information for the Toronto community has become a 'chat room' where anything goes.

PEOPLE WHO GO ON THREADS AND SAY WHAT A USELESS THREAD OR USE THE PM FEATURES!!!!


HONESTLY FAWK SI NO TE GUSTA NO TE METAS!!! **** IT THAT HARD!! THATS WHATS KILLING FORO!


PPL DONT LIKE TO POST WHY BECAUSE OTHERS COME ON AND SAY CRAP LIKE THAT AND SOMETIMES U MIGHT HURT A PERSON!!


IM SORRY BUT THATS FINE U FIND IT USELESS BUT OBVIOUSLY THE PERSON THAT POSTED IT DOESNT THINK ITS USELESS!!


 





Ha!!!  So obviously I disagree with you!!!


There's a REASON why there's a PM feature!!!  I remember threads that you've posted and you'd say, "If interested or if you want details or whatever the case, please PM me!"  What's the point of PM'ing then???!!!


If one person wants to post.........DANNY416, I love you..........fine..........but must it drag on between two people for 30 pages if there's a PM feature or even MSN which they both talk on???!!!  True, it's none of my business but it becomes EVERYONE'S business when we're all exposed to it.


I think the threads that get most attention are the ones that make you think enabling you to post your opinion and have a healthy debate whereas.............GOODBYE FAREWELL NO BODY CARES ABOUT ME OR DANNY416 YOU'RE MY SEXYPAPICHULO.....................C'MON MAN!!!!!!

Oh, as for Boro, it'll bounce back. It always does. I think summer and radio killed Boro a little bit. Once fall and winter hit, it'll be all about this place, baby!

True. But... I don't really have "true feelings" towards anyone, do the rest of you? Meaning: I don't absolutely hate anyone in particular. What you might get from me is either a positive or negative reaction to something that you posted. But not life-long resentments or ill feelings; hell, not even everlasting friendships In that sense I think we take boro too seriously. 


I agree about "the inside jokes". What a way to segregate.

as USUAL, you're wrong AGAIN... some of us are not affraid to hurt anyone's feelings (i.e.: Danny0.99 ENJOYS hurting EVERYONE's feelings)... you only get called MEAN or other names (mainly by Confu) cause YOU ARE MEAN (+ because THAT IS ALL SHE knows how to do)


 


Did I hurt your feelings yet?

1.- Tu.

2.- Threads like this.

3.- Varios de los foro member se han hecho amigos lo cual en cierta forma les restringe el "poner el dedo en la llaga", de bido al resultado de la amistad, don't get me wrong , no hay nada de malo con ello es solo que le quita el misterio al foro.

But yeah you are right this should be called el Boro......

I think that threads a la "Kary416" are killing foro.... perhaps some people do it just to let everybody know that they're in touch outside foro, or some people do it just because they don't know the existence of the PM feature.
