Question An Idea.......

(Not said in a mean/angrey tone of voice)

Dont you guys think the constant bickering and complaining about the new rules/qualification process is getting a little old??

Well here's what i propose......

We take 2-4 days of "silence" from posting anything about the new process (all complaining basically)

Maybe this will calm down most of the forums a little, which have seem to gain a lot of tension........


Also maybe their could be some kind of organized chats somewhere or maybe it could all be done over AOL Instant Messanger, Yahoo Messanger, ICQ, etc.


What do u guys think????


PS~I do realize this is a forum for posting your thoughts and ideas, but i also think the constant bickering is getting kinda of annoying and old

i agree with you clark. i think it would be a good to let people cool down for a while, before people start getting offensive. We should all wait and see what happens with the game before we make all these conclusions. i see this year being the best yet. And one final thought, Grasious Professionalism is deans biggest thing. lets start being a little nicer

Thumbs up Couldn't agree more

Recently I've been doing a lot of reading on the posts and very very little posting. Its just gotten to be too much - the same subjects seem to keep coming up again and again. These forums have always been a huge help for me. If anything, they've always kept me informed about the latest gossip. I'd hate if they just turned into a outlet for people to release their anger about the new registration format.

~Tom~, who personally just can't stop thinking about next year's game.

Unhappy same things coming up again and again...

The same things keep coming up again and again because different sides of people keep on arguing about different opinions...

The anger about new qualification is a justifiable one...
And I do think that the arguments are too much...

However, I don't think limiting what others should say and shouldn't say is the right way to do it.

Those discussions happen over and over again because people keep challenging other's opinion, so we can't really say that the angry messages are the ones causing all these debates...

Take a look at my other post about this at: "As an objective reader, here is my sincere opinions... "

And Some of the posts really do not deserver angry comebacks... Seems like we were suddenly infected by this weird angry mood… If you really look into those messages, you would see that some of the people are more reasonable and calmer than you thought.

So, I suppose I agree that we should take a break for a while, but I won't agree to use the break to stop people from saying what they think...

I just hope the break will help us realize what we've been doing the past month, and figure out what's the best way to deal with different voices.

Remember...complaining never got anyone anywhere... just go out and beat the system...who knows....maybe this qualification system may be modified or terminated next year...

That's my thoughts...
