Ok, since it seems that several of you can't be bothered to read a post that is parked at the top of the forum and is titled in ALL CAPS, "PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING"....
http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=205093
Just yet another reminder that simply posting "nice kill" or "nice run" or 1 word responses, etc, and so on, is no longer going to be ok in the Kills Forum.
We've gotten tons of complaints from several members about post whoring. As such, since it has been posted and parked for all to see under the terms of "PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING", and since I remind people constantly about using profanity (including creative spelling of profanity) here in this forum, ignornace of the etiquette expected here in the Kills Forum is no longer an acceptable excuse.
In other words, we're going to be cracking down. People are going to start getting Time Outs over repeatedly posting "nice run" and using profanity of any kind in here, much more regularly than they do now.
By way of example, a certain member post-whored thru the Kills Forum, as well as a few others here, this week. His posts were deleted, and his post count was reset to 0. Yes, we're serious.
You've been warned. Again, PLEASE READ: http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=205093
Also, keep in mind, if you've ever been in Time Out here before, for any reason, each subsequent stay in Time Out gets increased in length of time, and could be the straw that breaks the camel's back for a repeat offender, which could result in certain folks being banned.
It's not worth it. Just follow the etiquette. By the way, did I mention it's a good idea to READ this link? :

Thank you.
PS- Yep, this is a repost cuz it's painfully obvious it needs to be reposted in here. And also for the sake of clarification, the purpose of this post is to share information with you, make you aware, etc...
It's NOT up for debate, and it's NOT up for discussion. It's information that you now have, and as a result can no longer use ignorance as an excuse. That's all.
Remember the Kills Forum is supposed to fun, a bunch of car nuts talking about stories about cars, etc. There's a delicate balance in keeping it fun while not having total mayhem, post whoring, excessive profanity, flames, attacks, name-calling, and disrespectful conduct.
Rock on... :guitarist
