Personally I think thread creators should be able to ask someone not to post in their topic if they don't want them to.
Other forums do that, so should we implement that on 101? It'd probably cut down on the flaming a bit.

You'd need to find a forum mod for that. I did a bit of fooling around to see if I could make it so that you can only see your own posts in a specific forum for an idea I had, we would need a new mod for that as well.

By "mod" I'm assuming he means "a plug-in for the phpBB program". I only even point this out because my first response when reading this was "why would we need a new person to mod just to do this?" Yeah, I'm kinda dumb...

I think this is a terrible idea.
It completely noobifies the site. Everyone is just going to say "stop posting in my thread" when someone disagrees with them. Everyone will live happily ever after, but no one will get good advice.

This idea stops personal flame wars from spreading. (Like between you and Fu8ar).
Maybe only implement this on the OT discussion (that is if a mod [a person Dao ] is willing to enforce it)?

I agree with breakbeatz that something like this would probably be way overused and become somewhat of an annoyance.
However, it would have positive effects as well, which have already been mentioned.

I think there have been enough restrictions to what we can and can't say that we don't need any more rules limiting posting, I mean rules should be set and followed but remember, this is only a forum. What happened between the time I arrived and now? Because when I first started coming everyone was happy and no one was mean to eachother, then as the community started to grow, new mods were being implemented (not naming any names) and it slowly started to be less fun to come here. I just think more stuff to deal with to 'type to eachother' on a forum isn't nessesary.

I seriously doubt it was new mods being added that has anything to do with the decline in this board. You appear to have joined a few months before I took a break from the site, and I can tell you this place has changed significantly since I used to come on here. There were always the occasional snipes at other posters, and people did flame on occasion, but for the most part this site was generally fun and interesting. Now, however, it seems like a thread can't go five posts before some dumbass has to haul in a months-old grude against a fellow poster, and clog up an otherwise good thread with stupid nonsense flaming. When I was modding before, I could go a week without having to intervene in a thread; now, not more than a day passes without me having to lock, move, or edit a thread, or censure a poster.
The truth is, a lot of the "good" people that everyone liked are slowly drifting off into other games or life activities, and a lot of the people replacing them aren't very... "quality". New mods were introduced to try to help bail out what was basically a ship taking on water. If you're going to assess blame for the lack of quality around here I don't think I'd look to the mods/admins to find fault. Remember: most of us have been here for years now, and we haven't changed all that much. In my personal experience, I'm a bit dissappointed that many (but not all) of the posters I used to enjoy conversing with seem to have fallen off the site. But I'd bet twenty bucks that not a one of them left because of the moderation.
