Default Two Suggestions reguarding the forum rules

1.* Advetismentss/links to other forums/sites/products/services are subject to whim of admin. (Generally affiliate links and links to other forums are not allowed - unless you ask.)
-Spell check ftw

2.* Making replies to posts that are irrelevant to the original topic, such as: "first," or “in before lock”
-Enforce this rule or delete it, I see it in half my derailed, trolled threads

Thank you.

IB4L posts are funny though, because they are only posted on threads that have 0 point to them...

It is a harmlessly misspelled word and it's obvious what it is, it's not like the admins spelled it "edvurtizementz".

Thank you.
Second, this is fair enough. I'd also like to point out that users only post that term when a thread is severely lacking of substance, has no contributions to the discussion of MW2, is a trolling/spamming thread with the intentions to spark a negative reaction, or a thread that has been derailed and no longer has the potential to become a serious topic.

The issues will be taken care of if users report them. "In before lock" posts also don't matter since the topic will eventually be locked and deleted accordingly, so the users lose their post count value. On the other hand, if it was a legitimate thread, those posts would (and have been) most certainly be removed as Spam, and the user in question would be warn/infractioned.

Thanks.

EDIT: Seeing that you've viewed this thread after I posted my response, I assume that you have no more queries at this time, therefore I'm going to close this.

I guess for completions sake I should mention the spelling mistake has been corrected and the second point has been taken note of and discussed.

Although there is still no need to post "useless content" or w/e the exact phrase is, we will remain lenient regarding posts like "go away, GTFO, inb4lock, inb4ban" etc. The rule is there to help prevent the members having a vigilante culture against new/inexperienced members.

This is getting repetitive.
