Maximum One Drivel Thread Per Week

[RETIRED]

Yep.

[NewLou]

ahhh...sweet relief, just found the ignore list button. Never had to use it before, but I cant stand all the bull$hyte anymore....pity, sometimes the people on it make interesting reading, cheers.

Totally agree

I'm finding it harder n harder to find intersting threads without having to wade chin deep through pizz n drivel

Why not have a Drivel Room for the drivlers where they can drivel on each other and fill the room up with high jacks n drivel up to their eyeballs

..............................It would be Drivel Nervana where members can drivel into each others mouths up each others noses and in each others pokets. You could even get "I'm A Drivler" on a forum Cap And have an annual award for the thread with the most ridiculas drivel

.................Send each other X-MAs cards splattered with Drivel and create a virtual world of driveldom.

THose that love drivel can hang out in the drivel Room becoming drivel buckets gleefully filling each other up!!!

could it be politely suggested that the drivel be vigerously moderated in the Woodworking sections so that I no long have to drivel on about drivel.

The boys and girls in the back shed are working on it Lou.

There are enough Drivelers to go and start up their own forums and have a good member base straight off.

Don't you guys make sawdust any more? All I seem to come across is bulldust.

Stu if you have a look back at the Drivelers past posts, most of them have never done any woodwork at all, and if they have they havent posted it here..

What about this for a suggestion.

A drivel forum that requires a password exactly the same as the open slather section.......which would also mean it wouldn't show up when you hit 'New Posts'......
any excessive verbal diarrhoea in normal posting is deleted straight up, no questions asked at the mods discretion.

Bring on the Im a Driveller Hat....

And the non drivellers hardly post anymore because of the drivel that has invaded the forums.

Where is the option for "Get rid of the drivel completely" for I would vote for that.

Yup if the abomination of drivel continues to grow at its present rate and remains unchecked I fear we will continue to loose the likes of DPB and other legendary forum members who come here for woodwork related content........................... and are indeed great role models and learning resources for all woodworkers both newbies and vetrans alike

Must admit I am yet to learn anything from drivel other than patience and tolerance!!! This threat to one of the greatest forums in Australian internet history must be addressed .................it is time for us to unite against this foul beast ...................the abomination of drivel must be checked and put in its place

Tis time for the drivel police to come forth

Oh no ............I'm driveling again

Tis a disease I say ...............Ban it before we all fall foul to this threat to our beloved Forum

[echnidna]

No need for an extra forum,
just make it compulsory that "DRIVEL" appears in the thread name.

I agree with Peter. Since the Friday thread started the forum has changed so much, and for the worse.

Now we have a big weekly blast of drivel and all other threads are to "stay on topic - no in jokes - no drivel" or else its edited/deleted.

Starting a wood based topic or replying to one now is a waste of time.

I prefered the older threads when their was no Friday rubbish and a mix of all the above in each normal thread posted. Thats what made this a unique forum because they were informative, at times hijaked with drivel and sometimes overflowed with passion and the odd bit of agro arguments. It was great. Now its to sanatised and boring. Lurking is starting to be the prefered option now.

I think Lignum has made a pretty good observation here. It is made worse I think by the new "i Spy", people can keep the drivel flowing a lot faster using that.

[Stuart]

Almost too late to prevent that - he certainly doesn't post any more.

Mate, I TOTALLY agree with EVERY point you have made here, and yes including the ones between the lines.

[NewLou]

. Thats what made this a unique forum because they were informative, at times hijaked with drivel and sometimes overflowed with passion and the odd bit of agro arguments.

Thats what makes it an Aussie Forum. I think a consensus is close in that this is the formula that makes our forum unique.

For god sake Ban the Drivel threads turn the Rep system back to how its used to be (Support it) & endevor to keep a balance ( is a master at this)

Long live our FORUM!
