I havent noticed it that much, GMC is the nicest place on the net, if even an ounce of the UG forums attitude comes here ill be dissapointed.

QUOTE (Asphyxia Feeling @ Sep 14 2007, 02:19 AM) yeah i see the UG mentality creeping up on GMC's forums. we should post a sticky of "general forum etiquette" or somewhat! There is already https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...?showtopic=5086 This place is the nicest forum I have ever seen to be honest and I know that Kris, Andrew and others do a very good job of keeping it this way. Now there are bound to be conflicts....that's human nature....but like I said I think Kris and Co. do an excellent job of nipping things in the bud when they go to far. I've been on the UG forum...I lasted one day because of all the jerks there. I've been here since March and plan on staying way longer. |

QUOTE (rokchik @ Sep 14 2007, 08:34 PM) Thanks for pointing that out Rok - Everyone go and read it immediately! Now, a word about my moderation policy ... I try very hard to do nothing at all. Sounds like a cop out I know, but the way I see it, the less I am doing the better GMC is working as a community. If I go around deleting posts all the time and blocking users, GMC will be like a police state. One thing that always pleases me is when someone makes a harsh statement, or is unkind or rude, and regular members step in to take the person to task. That means the community is self policing, and a nice place to hang out because that is the way people want it to be, not because Kris and I are forcing it to be that way. Make no mistake though, I read every post and when I see rudeness or bad language I will take action, fortunately it is very rare that I have to do anything - GMC is basically a very decent place. Sometimes members in good faith disagree with each other, its bound to happen. If people disagree with respect that is healthy and should be encouraged. We aren't all a bunch of angels sitting on clouds, we are real people with passionate opinions about music and I wouldn't have it any other way. As soon as a thread starts getting heated I camp on it - I will make sure I am notified for every post that is made, and if it becomes too heated I will often say something - when I post in bold italics, that is my "listen to me " voice - if people don't get the hint after that I will lock the thread, sometimes temporarily to let people cool down, if it is an interesting subject, or forever if it is a forbidden subject such as threads about file copying or drug use. If I post to a thread that, is a level 1 warning - just a reminder to be a little more careful. The next stage is a PM - when I PM you about your forum behavior it goes on your record so that we can refer back to it. As moderators we see on everyones posts how many times they have been warned. Eventually, if people need to be warned too many times, for repeat offenses we will consider temporary or permanent forum bans, although I haven't personally needed to ban anyone so far. If anyone is offended by anything that anyone says on GMC, drop me or Kris a PM. We both care very deeply about keeping this a pleasant place to hang out, we will take whatever action is necessary to keep it that way. These principles are all enshrined in the posting guidelines - be familiar with them!

It's called constructive criticism. Take a look at some of the instructors' posts critiquing uploads. Proof that it's possible to do it with "personality".
Wow. |
