Golden Rule Sticky in NVG too strict

Today I was reading the thread about Poker Stars purchasing FTP and noticed a new sticky that was created by Noah. Noah posted the sticky because a poster told Noah that he was micro managing the thread. One of the problems I have with the sticky is that who is Noah to judge on whether or not someone doesn't want to read a certain post in a thread? Whether or not an individual who is reading a thread wants to read the particular post in the thread is up to the individual. If someone wants to post one time or whatever in the thread this shouldn't be an issue. I just feel like Noah is trying to play God in NVG with that sticky and is taking away from a posters rights to freedom of speech in a sense. There were obv some examples of post that were bad but it still doesn't mean that a poster shouldn't be allowed to say what they want within reason. NVG isn't Poker Headlines, I should be able to feel comfortable making a short post on NVG without having to watch my back because of a sticky that is to strict. The Golden Rule doesn't sound Golden at all to me and hopefully the sticky is removed.

Thanks have a nice afternoon.

Re: Golden Rule Sticky in NVG to strict

It's almost like Noah is a mod or something. And LOL @ the freedom of speech argument. This is a privately owned forum.

BTW, still waiting for your apology to all the people you personally insulted in the avatar thread. You know, the thread where you insisted people owed you an apology for insulting you, and then quietly slunk away when I pointed out all of your insulting posts?

I support the Golden Rule at 100%. These threads were becoming a cluster**** imo.

Re: Golden Rule Sticky in NVG to strict

Now I have read all I have to say is: confirmed troll.

The basic lack of punctuation and bad English gave it away.

From the sticky: We're going to start being a bit more harsh about stuff like this because NVG is becoming unreadable.

You don't say? I'm with you Noah!!!!!! Purge the forum! We don't need childish posts in NVG. Photoshop threads about Hellmuth On a hot dog deserve respect!

Lol like you are qualified to weigh in on freedom of speech. That's an american right and this forum is based in america. Go back to canada you hoser. Frankly, I could care less what you have to say on this matter.

Re: Golden Rule Sticky in NVG to strict

I wanted this to be a serious thread not a troll thread. The guidelines in this sticky aren't realistic. Noah can't read someones mind to see if a particular post is a waste of time or that people wouldn't want to read the particular post. I personally feel that Noah got offended by the poster who said he was micromanaging the thread. NVG is going to have the life sucked out of it and won't be the same if the sticky stands.

Re: Golden Rule Sticky in NVG to strict

I say any rule that encourages kevmode to post less is a great rule.

Well done, Noah!

Lol sticky is nothing new so calm down. Also it will have no affect, just like the last dozen times something exciting happened in poker and mods tried to make nvg less of a **** show. I commend your efforts, noah, but am not optimistic.
