  I'm sick and tired of people leaving so many useless post. This has mainly been perpetrated by some very recent new-comers in such bulk that I shall be taking immediate action.
  
  I shall now start enforcing the spam-and-ban penalty for offenders of this rule. You all have read it when you signed up; you all should obey it and most of you do. It is just those select few I'm angered at.
  If you get angry at me, see if I care. Reality's End has a forum for purposeful discussion, not petty banter and one-line futilities.

  Thank you Kero, I am glad you saw my post. Now, maybe we can become the old forums with new memebers, not these meaningless posts...

  *stares awkwardly at LE*
  I have already started to help. I deleted a couple of topics that I started that are no longer of any use(the missing home page and the one from when my pokémon took a total beating from lack of knowledge about gyms). I shall continue to kill off dead post that I don't think need to be there anymore(like attack of the smileys) and stop checking by so often. There was something else...hmmm... oh yah. I have to make sure that I killed all of my mouse over links. You do have to admit that it would have been pretty ridiculous to watch a guy like MintMan sitting at his computer as the almost completely black screen goes pink before his very eyes. Sorry about that. I shall continue killing those, but I don't think there was many more, if any.
If there is something wrong, it's probably my fault.

  Edit:I do beleive that I have killed all over my mouse over links. They still look the same, but they aren't. *shrinks the size of her signature* Okay. I decided that it would be kind of weird to delete some of my post(like the smiley one) because it leaves a big gap and if anybody goes back to read it, umm...it is kind of odd. I deleted a few that I probably shouldn't of have. It probably won't hurt to get rid of those topics with only a couple of replies in them(like the stupid questions that are answered in the FAQ). I could also delete that one topic on spam... If I type about canned meat spam could we keep it up? I had to ask. I guess I shall delete it, eventually, but I need to go upstairs and do some stuff that I should have taken care of earlier regarding school.

  I'm going to erase my unnecessary posts too. Wait a second, all of them are unnecessary. *notices second bullet coming right at his head*
  
  I'll delete all my topics and I will leave this forum. And the RE Forum will be a greater place. If three people tell me not to leave, I shall not leave; otherwise, adios muchachos and muchachas.

  I say you should stay. Whether or not your posts have any actual value now doesn't mean much. A member's still a member, and you should just not feel obligated to make a post every time you see somethin' that's halfway interesting. If you're worried about bringing upon the downfall of RE, I think you're over-reacting a little bit. If you're really worried about too many posts, you could just limit yourself to one post a day. I mean, it's not that complicated to not say too much stuff.
  
  And I say this because it makes me mad when people come, talk for a while, then leave for some reason or other. Anybody remember Chiriru Mai?

  I just wanted to show how I think people see me, as a joke like Lt. Eagle's, of course.
  
  * sees something OTHER than a bullet going at his head *
  
  * sees his memory about TMK Fungi Forums Terrorist Xizer "living a short life" at TMK *
  
  Oh, and by the way, what you said reminded me of what someone at the Fungi Forums (either CashCrazed or Insane Steve, I think [I say "I think" a lot, don't I?]) mentioned about this player guy forever. Made like 2-3 posts and hasn't been seen since.
  
  I made a topic at the Fungi Forums called "Something's Wrong!" It was about Osama Bin Laden not being seen for about a year, and it's nearing 9-11. Someone (I always forget!!!) said "Bin Laden's real name is Xizer." Then good ol' Frostbite said, "or the other way around." Funny eh?
  
  * is wondering if only he can do this correctly, other than MM, of course: *

  What the bloody Hel is wrong with you people? Don't delete your posts! That's worse than spamming!
  Besides the obvious gaps that they create, as Sailor had mentioned, deleting entire posts just leaves room for futher idiocy. Even with useless posts, it at least lets other idiots that may come to the forum learn from past follies; if something no longer has use, it still serves archival purposes. Deleting a post because no one reads it anymore is no reason; I'm not that tight on memory. Text files such as the forum take up little to nothing.
  
  If a post is worthless, you'll know because I'll delete never. Never, ever delete a post you make unless it was accidental or you changed your mind after making it or something like that; if it was made and others read it, don't delete it. Spamming is a future action, not one that can be made up for from the past.
  
  This post is already having negative reciprications

  The reason that I feel like leaving is because I'm in SailorSassyStar's killfile, and possibly a bit in MintMan's. Alright then, I will not delete all of my posts, and I will post as rarely as possible. *twenty years later, never posts*

  Yo LE, sorry about that, but that was quite a while ago. You've been slowly improving and that is a good thing. I know what you feel like about wanting to leave, remember that post that I made about possibly never returning or posting again right after that huge misunderstanding? It doesn't help when people say "whatever" about a post that you put your feelings into *cough* I didn't mean to upset you and I'm sorry if I had made it seem that way. To tell you the truth, I sort of thought that you had a grudge against me. I'm sure that you can tell by now that I am extremly sensitive and sometimes take stuff the wrong way. I've just been frusterated latly with going back to school. I'm taking 9th grade acidemics for crying out loud. We haven't even started yet, but the sheer size of the books makes me feel sick. My Language arts book is over an inch thick!
  More on topic, uhh...sorry MM about deleting those post. I didn't releize that untill after they were gone. Sorry doesn't help does it? I think you are right about people missing the point of this. It has actually caused more post, at least in my case. Well...sort of. I know that I probably shouldn't make my post so long, but hey, look at your posts. I think it has to do with the habit of writing lenghty papers at school. I always need complete sentances and in LA(Language arts, not Los Angeles) I have to write in 6-8 sentance paragraphs for simple responses. What I really need is a spelling class. My LA teacher would have a heart attack if she say this post. Oh well. Maybe I'll get less homework that way. All everyone every tells me is to spell it like it sounds or look it up in the dictonary.
If there is something wrong, it's probably my fault.

  I'm taking Earth Science (9th grade science) and Geometry (9th grade math). I'm an 8th grader.
  
  Back to topic: I will not post for the remainder of the week, to be bound by my promise. SSS, I'm the one that was the idiot, so I'm the one that has to ask for pardon. Back to topic: Is the Arena Terrae something that was on Reality's End before, or what?

  AT , GOD DAMN, I never really played that, but I fried Minty's bandwith from using massive sprites in that, or somthin like that. If you could recreate that and actually wak up battle dates, that game could go kinda hard.

  This is not good at all. Everyone is off topic and saying not nice stuff.
  1. I don't appreciate the way some of you people are talking about other people
  2. I don't like that language
  3. If I get caught reading stuff like this I could be in trouble
  I don't so much mind having people making post loaded with *'s, but would you people just cut it out? *SailorSassyStar has once again asked a stupid question* I know if my dad came downstairs and read a few of those post he won't be to happy to say the least. Other than being in alot of trouble my dad might put some sort of junkie protection lock on the internet so that I can't even get to the site. He locked up the internet once before when I was doing the computer when I was supposed to be doing homework and ended up staying up past 11 just to finish it. The swearing and reference to god in that way needs to stop now.
  
  On another note, I don't think one of our spammers is realling getting the message*coughMadMacough*
  LE, totally understanded. Growing up is so messed, and sometimes it really vacuum. You said that you're in 8th grade, but taking 9th grade classes in another topic. That makes 2 of us. I know how frusterating that is. It has only been the 4th full day of school and I already have had 2 quizes with another one on Monday, a test on Wednesday, homework in 5 subjects, including an essay, about 30 problems in algebra, writing a journal entry, finding some definitions, recording what I eat for a day(health, don't ask), and praticing my saxophone, which when brand new last year I dropped on the floor totally bending part of the bell backwards. I'm dead tired so I'm going to catch up on my sleep now. ZzZzZ
If there is something wrong, it's probably my fault.

  *stopped learning Math things in the seventh grade, waited until Junior year of high school, did college-leveled math*
  
  Ha-ha, I have a larger skip than all of you! That's like.... three years or something. *watches everyone else's level of academic skipping rising* Awww....
  
  At any rate, Eagle, you've never been a problem at these forums. You've never spammed or made worthless posts or anything. The only thing I can say that you've done is brought some spamming to the forums. *glares to the figure next to Eagle*
  You were making a lot of posts at one time, but they were responsive posts to someone who was already spamming, so it was okay. You were inciting spam of any kind, just trying to answer to it. I have no problem with that. It's the people who do the spammin' that I get mad at
  
  Back to... what we were.... um, doing.
  
  Ah, yes, AT and swearing. I've blocked out the two words that I find most offensive: Camo's favorite F3x* and S3x*. Whenever I see him make a c**t, I personally remove it, but the script isn't set to do that. I think there are some words that could end that wouldn't be so offensive, and I don't want some normal words being blocked out because they contain something offensive.
  I don't care for him using God's name in vain, either. Problem is, "God" and the word coming from the Latin condemn, damno, damnare, damnavi, damnatum methinks, is also a legit word that can be used for purposes. Aside from being a frequent in classic literature, how else are you supposed to refer to Daemons or Vampires or Hell-Bound souls? You use that word! So I don't block it.
  
  Ah, Arena Terrae. It was a game in which you made your own fighting force of supposed golems to be anything that you wanted: medieval, futuristic, super heros, normal people, giant humanoid bunnies, whatever! The only rule is that they had to be humanoid and that the images couldn't be so ridiculously large that when they were forced into their 50 x 50 limit, they wouldn't bog the pages already slow load time (Camo ).
  Sorry to say it, Ash, but I could have had Arena Terrae back on-line for quite some time now. You forget I have that alternate yet highly unreliable host at FracturedReality. He gave me two large servers in which I could do practically anything, but I didn't move my site their due to its tendacy to disappear for months at a time. I could have put AT back on it, but so few people used AT. I guess if I finished the expansion AT Quest (or if I just made a quest myself), people would start to get into it. One of the biggest problems is that I would have to rewrite all of the code I had set to safeguard against F2S's errors. Same goes for the RELLB; I have it, I could make it, but so few people would be capable of using for the time it would take to bring either of them back. I don't want to have to go through all of that work when I have so much to do now for somethings that would hardly get used.
  
  I could try, tho', if enough people wanted me to. Arena Terrae, that is. The RELLB would require an entire re-write; AT would just be some block-editting.

  You oughta do AT... I never really understood it, but I think if you did something like, have to confirm the accounts so that images arnt 23414x324587 it would go good... Also you NEED dates to play, the whole time I played, I was like, cool I moved a square, ok, lets go play witht he dog now....

  Yeah... AT should be brought back. But on certain days, Mintman, you should set your AIM up so we can crush each other. I gotta get revenge on that Crater Guy, and also the Ice guy... their names escape me at the moment.
  
  
  And SSS, you're in band too? It's always nice to meet a fellow Band Nerd. I play the quads (Or quad-toms...whatever) That's the four drums all at once, for those who don't know.
