Clearly you are one of the those with too much time on your hands.


You remain unaware of how much time I have to spend on any particular activity and your opinions estimating it are without merit.


(as has been indicated time and again)


Your opinion is inaccurate since it lacks the basis of evidence, (whereas the preceding indications of your lack of reasoning ability are consistantly verified by your posted responses - thus demonstrating a qualitive difference between facts and opinions).


Maybe you should be a Mod here and deal with the problem,since you tend to spend your every waking moment on here. ::)


Since I don't work for FC, there isn't much chance of my being a moderator of these forums.  To reiterate that the basis of your opinion lacks substantive evidence, FC shows my "Total time logged in: 12 days, 15 hours", (out of 2 years), which means evidence shows that I do not "tend to spend every waking moment on here".  You must enjoy being wrong because evidence shows it happens so often.

This is actually getting funny now. I do appreciate the frustration caused for someone who is new trying to locate information. The fact that the search engine is not that strong and it takes a while to learn the jargon to figure out what you are really seeking , having things in the wrong headings adds to the searching process. This is probably why several Sr. members put together some guidelines and FC has seen fit to honor them by keeping them permanently at the top of the comments for the correct heading. It will probably remain an issue as long as there are humans involved here. It might help though if there were a way to consolidate, shift comments etc to the correct thread or header and possibly even to archive some of the older posts that are no longer relevant. But I imagine that would take a lot of time and energy on the part of the admins. Too bad it can't be farmed out or subcontracted for some points or something like that for those who might have the time to assist. Other than that we really are left with self patrolling and just paying attention to what we are doing. It is not a perfect world so we have to live with it. AT least for now.

As long as those who can get away with randomly posting in whatever subforum they wish to, can, they will.  Oddly enough, the Admin did request that the participants in a recent santa thread move the topic-shift to a new thread, (which was done).  Apparently, this happens rarely and only occurred in the recent instance due to conflicting complaints to Admin, (mine being based upon quoted ad hominem attacks and the other party's based entirely upon self-generated lies).  Be that as it may, it might be that off-topic threads which receive several Admin complaints would be more likely to be recatagorized, (as opposed to posting the complaints in a thread complaining about random posting).

WOW... this is WOW you guys.

I started this post, and I don't understand how is this considered "complaining" when I'm TELLING THE TRUTH and MAKING A GOOD POINT about what's going on in this forum. I'm not being stupid or annoying about this. I'm being seriously and I'm  SUGGESTING that fusioncash members start topics in the right place because the administration created different discussion boards for a REASON. If we post anywhere we want, then there will  be no reason for discussion boards and it's just going to be a pile of mess here.

I'm wondering if people actually comment on this post based on the title, or based on what I wrote AFTER the title?

Lastly, am I to be bashed simply for suggesting to have more organization for this community?
I'm asking for something that does not harm, and that it benefits all of us!

First of all, I'm in general argreement with your suggestion.  Secondly, some suggestions may also constitute complaints and this isn't a "bashing" of either for making the suggestion or complaint, (although there has been implicit bashing of those who do throw their posts in any old subforum, as your suggestion/complaint opposes).

Wow. This is crazy how people are getting all upset with each other over a simple topic. I have not read all the comments because it does not seem like some have anything too nice to say. But as for my opinion... I don't feel it really matters at all. If you see something off topic then ignore it. I do believe that it is most helpful for new comers if you do comment in the right category, but since I have started I have not had much of a problem finding answers to my questions in the forum and I have found the search helpful. But basically all I do is look on my account page for the most recent topics people are commenting on and if I see something interesting then I will comment on it. Or I check the new replies to your posts from time to time. But honestly is it that serious people!

This is basically how I feel as well.It's not really a big deal to me.I should not have to be bullied by Falcon for posting my opinion (which was not directed to or about him),which is the only reason I became "upset".I have reported him,and will simply leave it at that.

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

You reported me, (not for "bullying", which didn't occur), but for refuting your lying nonsense about spending all my time on FC?  That's hilarious.  Your martyred passive-aggressive weaseling is disengenuous.  The actual posts are available for review and they don't support your contention, (which is representative of your usual practice of making unsupported and false declarations).

It would be so great if somewhere on this earth there was a place where people of all backgrounds, all races/colors, all religions/non-religions, all IQ's and the "brain-dead" could come together and get along...you would think that could happen in the FC forum's but no...looks like FC needs to hire some "forum police" to keep things from getting out-of-control.  

What's next?  The "suggestion" that new FC members can't join until they take an IQ test and prove that they are intelligent enough to post in a $3 a month forum?  SERIOUSLY?? Some people aren't happy unless they are condemning, criticizing and judging others...trying to make rules and acting like they have a pile of bricks stuck up their booty.  It's almost like this thread was started by a "christian"...it wasn't was it??? ???

While the humorous sarcasm is appreciated, (at least by me), the objective wasn't to mandate any specific level of intelligence requirements but, that some thought be given to subject placement.  Doing isn't exactly rocket science nor was the OP's suggestion a chiseled-in-stone rule.

It could have come from a xtian but, that wasn't an aspect of the original post.  Oddly enough, much of the subsequent condemning and such came from self-professed xtians.  Serendipity at play, no doubt.

How does people having differing opinions become not getting along? EVERYONE is entitled to their opinion.....just because it isn't what YOU think everyone should believe, doesn't mean that people aren't entitled to voice it.

So....A SUGGESTION (which is exactly what it was, like it or not) that people try to ABIDE BY the RULES ALREADY MADE BY FC ADMIN (and generally....rules ARE made for a reason, not just to make rules) -

is NOW (according to you):

"A FC member is TRYING TO MAKE RULES, because they must have a pile of bricks stuck up their booty".

Maybe YOU should take an IQ test...(not for the forum, just for general purposes).

I'm sorrry, I guess I'm just used to people showing others some courtesy when they have a difference of opinion...you know, like if someone doesn't like where someone else is posting their posts then either politely let that person know or better yet keep it to themself and let FC take care of it if it's that BIG of a problem.  It's got nothing to do "with what I believe" or "what I think everyone should believe", it's got to do with having some manners...some "tact".  I'm all for people voicing whatever they want on FC.  If the forums don't meet one's organizational standards, one doesn't have to stay here.    

How about being considerate of all the other FC members that have worked their butts off trying to get referrals to join this site and participate in the forums, only to have other members complaining about where & what newer members are posting and intimidating them.  Common sense should tell most that alot of people that join FC are here to make some money.  Many are not "well-to-do", some are living at poverty level.  Did you miss the food stamps threads?  Many can't/couldn't afford a college education and many more probably haven't even finished high school.  Some aren't that familiar with the English language, which is blatantly obvious from their posts.   Some people aren't that familiar with computers or posting in a forum.  
Gosh, if only everyone was just born as naturally as smart as you!  (heavy sarcasm)

Ummm, no.  Here are FC's forum rules:

Forum Rules  

Observe the golden rule
Treat others as you would like to be treated
Respect our advertisers
Do not discuss cancellation or post disparaging remarks
Do not post links to other sites
This means no referral links whatsoever
Do not post your email address or other contact information
Understand that we cannot filter all of the content on the forums, so you may read or see something you don't like.


Do not enter links, your email address, or any other contact information into your profile, title text, or any other location.


Your use of the forums is a privilege, not a right, and we may revoke your access at any time and for any reason.


If you break one of the rules above, you may be subject to disqualification from FusionCash.


***NOTHING there about how members MUST post in "proper" threads.
