Tjee, just let them post,.. its not that they are attacking someone on the site in person... its the fricking internet dated 2003 (and not the cute little internet it was back in 1997, those days wont return). It will probably stop when the Kazaa n00bs stop entering Skinbase (im thats just a matter of some time,.. weeks or so). In the meantime: Relax & have fun with the n00bs / stupid little 15yr old spoiled kids from America (or so..) <br /> <br />/me goes to sleep,.. stupid internet made me be awake till 4:30am.

hmm can&acute;t you just simply move f_ck to **** ? :) <br /> <br />but I agree very much with PK! you are right... thats how it is now, the internet was veeeery cute some years ago, but now every &quot;noob&quot; has internet... specially those leachers via KaZaA are sometimes a bit silly.. <br /> <br />but anyway, I haven&acute;t seen something like this on Skinbase bevore, so why bother... If it happens very often in the future, well then it is a problem, but now?!

there simply must be a better control on things like this. When there is a forum post needed to get it removed we headed to far. It should have already been deleted before people think about making a forum post off it..>

Hmm its gone. I still dont see why this needed so much attention though. If you are going to moderate then start with the chatbox ;-)

You da man gRAVE! I&acute;ve wanted to delete those posts for days! <br />Makeing &quot;posting moderation&quot; an admin feature might not be a bad idea?!

The post should be deleted. That&acute;s IMHO atleast. There&acute;s no reason for that kinda crap, and it&acute;s why many sites create guidlines on behavior. That came right out of the blue too. I&acute;m no fan of that icon, but a person could at least have a point.

PK your attitude of turn the other cheek is just uncalled for... There is NO way to justify this kind of language.... Period....

I&acute;m gettin perturbed too. I&acute;m tired of forums being created to make issues like this public when it should be handled privately in an email to the staff of the site. <br /> <br />I&acute;m guessing you are pissed about people who are not friendly and people who do not follow your standard of the community. But creating forums like this is just as bad for the community spirit IMO.

This overdependency of a job is one of the things I find so odd about this world. We slave through the prime of our life and only when we are worn out can we do the things we want to do. Unfortunately we are too old to do so then. <br /> <br />I think life would&acute;ve been better were I born as some kind of medieval prince or something. &quot;Servant, bring me some win and massage my toes!&quot; <br /> <br />Anyhow, good luck spoonman. /me &nbsp;sends employment vibes down through the earth&acute;s core to the Realm of the Antipedeans

lol @ snow <br />Our country towns are at the end of the &acute;drought of the Century&acute; and unless you have money to burn, you wouldn&acute;t survive out in the bush for more then couple of days. <br /> <br />CutTheRedWire: <br />Seriously, the world has always been an unforgiving place for &acute;have nots&acute;. The civilised nations have however been proud of a safety net welfare structure established to help people in need before they reverted back to living in caves. <br />There is no welfare now, pensions are worth a crap and all the good caves are now part of the world heritage listing. Hopelessness is the worlds fastest growing disease and the only way to solve our problems is to realise, that we have to _cap wealth_. There is a limit as to how fast I can drive, how much I can drink and which drugs I can take before I lose my humanity, whats wrong with putting a limit on how much wealth someone can accumulate before it turns them into a moron! <br /> <br />Side note: <br />The best part of my experience within the skinning community is, that we go against the trend. We share and share alike, being truly equal and treat each other with some kind of pioneering bond of unity. You can&acute;t find such things out there without a catch or a sales pitch these days. That is one reason why I am proud to be a skinner because to me it means more then just pixel pushing. <br /> <br />Anyhow, getting a job soon, so the house shouldn&acute;t be to far off either 8)

Prolly the same reason for that as everywhere else: &quot;Everyone&quot; wanna live on the same spot. &quot;No-one&quot; wanna live in the country anymore, all wanna live in some big flashy town. <br />I myself though are living out &quot;in a field&quot; and wouldnt want it otherwise. I hate the city-life!

You&acute;d figure Australia has plenty of space. Ack, housing costs are rising all over the globe.

I see what you mena. Relatively it&acute;s not a bad thing. It&acute;s still bad though. I see it as all the more reason to have the crap deleted though. The less of that crap, the more enjoyable your precious time is. <br /> <br />I hope things pan out for you though. Your thought and energy should be put into more important things, so I can&acute;t say you should worry about this crap. =^.^= <br /> <br />As for the homeless problem, I have to say the world econmy is bad. It&acute;s everywhere. Plus the old &quot;Rich get richer while the poor get poorer&quot; doesn&acute;t help matters. Is your government or are ppl doing anything about this? <br /> <br />There also is the common myth that homeless ppl deserve it. They don&acute;t realize that it could happen to them far too easily. I don;t know the numbers, but we have a big homeless problem here too. It doesn&acute;t get much new coveage though. <br /> <br />I know this doesn&acute;t help, but I need to think more and get more info to do anything useful. I&acute;m hoping that recognition of the problem, it&acute;s reach, and a little understanding (as I can&acute;t cliam to understand) is something.

Glad I missed all the action! ;) <br /> <br />But damn... I just can&acute;t bring myself to worry about few stupid noobs on skinbase when ya homeless! You never know when you will have Net access or your next meal. On the upside, it&acute;s easy to just &acute;disapear&acute; lol <br /> <br />There is one thing I am rather &acute;perturbed&acute; about myself tho. In a country like Australia (18 Milion Population) where there is so much wealth and natural resources, there are now over 50.000 homeless people in Victoria alone. Property investments and market manipulation have driven house prices/rentals beyond the reach of an avarage Ausie battler. In this day and age, there are more hungry, alone and angry people around the world then ever before, scary isn&acute;t it? <br /> <br />I like what the last French Queen said just before the Revolution when told that people had no bread to eat: <br />&quot;Well, give them cakes!&quot; <br />lol

DeskMod has a &quot;snitch to the admins about this post&quot; feature. Some idiot actually used that once on one of my posts. Me, the most pleasant of all people! <br /> <br />Anyhow, such a report function could work. Then when Snow, gRAVE or the Spoonman log in, they see a list of comment deletion requests and can take care of things behind the scenes.
