PSA: PLEASE READ!

TappedOut forum

Posted on June 2, 2016, 11:30 a.m. by TMBRLZ

That's my PSA.

READ GOD DAMNIT!

READ THE SITE! READ THE POSTS! LOOK FOR ANSWERS BEFORE YOU SPAM AND JUST FREAKING READ!

I haven't checked Tappedout hardly at all this week and I check in this this morning and I literally saw countless posts about people whining about their profile shown decks disappearing. And every time these people felt like they were the first to bring it up.

I'm not out to attack these people. I'm just trying to revitalize a feeling of common sense in the community here.

It annoys the crap out of the regulars here too when our notifications are filled with utter garbage. People starting opinion wars about adblock and people who are ignorantly readdressing issues that have already been addressed.

Please don't just say what comes to mind right away here. That's what Facebook is for.

  1. If you have a technical issue on tappeodut, read the rest of the tappedout forum and see if other peoples recently experienced this problem.

  2. If you have a MTG rules question, please ACTUALLY USE THE RULES Q&A FORUM and make sure that your very same rules question hasn't been answered already. You'll spend less time searching than you will asking the question. (And I'll acknowledge even I've been scolded by Epochalyptik about this before - so I'm not perfect.)

  3. Also... read a thread. Read what people are saying. Stop and think before you reply. Pretend for five god given seconds you have empathy before you start pumping venom into the forums.

Over 100 notifications and 40% was just trash.

Let's use some common sense and a cool head when we're on here and make reading and posting more enjoyable for everybody... please.

This concludes my PSA.

Incalculable shoutout to the admins who work hard to make Tappedout a better place.

(edit: No I'm not trying to get this featured. I'm trying to get people to read and equally vent out my own self-driven frustrations.)

+1.

The first mistake you made is assuming people are going to read. They don't. If they did, admins like myself and chiefbell wouldn't be necessary.

Who is this directed to? The people you are telling to read who have to read this post to know that they need to read....

Here's how I read this "I'm pissed at everyone else on this site for doing something that I've done myself."

I get the point your trying to make, but if you want people to respect your words, you should try using more respectful words.

If your argument is that people don't read, the worst thing you could have done to make your point was make some long winded post about it. You simply wasted your time because if you honestly believe that people don't read/pay attention enough then you knew before you ever hit "post" that they wouldn't read this. Making this just another irrelevant post about nothing. Good Job!
