The Art of Civility Revisited

[mego joe]

Just curious.......... besides Mostpowerful and Showtime, who based on their posts seem to be Goerge Reeves knowledgeable..........have the other posters watched the 50s TV series?

I watched them in reruns as a kid in the seventies and taped almost all of them as teenager when they showed up in reruns again in the eighties.

 

[Showtime]

The show is awesome.

 

[mego joe]

The show is awesome.

Agreed!

 

[Showtime]

Did that really just happen?!

 

[afan]

Did that really just happen?!

Common ground....OMG!

 

[mego joe]

Common ground....OMG!

Did we change it?

 

[SuperDaniel]

We can all agree on great interpretations of Superman...The show is indeed awesome.

I found the 50s series with Goerge Reeves rather enjoyable. I wonder how SR will be remembered in 50 years.

 

[Superfreak]

we used to watch it way back in elementary school, during recess and lunch break when it was raining, that and the old cartoon... brilliant stuff, got me adicted in the first place.

 

[SuperDaniel]

We as fans KNOW right away when we see a great Superman story being told. There`s never a 50/50 split.

Hey Showtime I got a question for you:

Did you start out as a regular moderator or were you granted the "special powers" of a mod?

____________

Destroy all that you know.....

 

[Showtime]

Not sure I understand your question.

 

[Anubis Raptor]

Not sure I understand your question.

Were you first a user then moved up to moderator?

Or were you always a mod?

 

[Showtime]

I was a user for about 2 years.

 

[Anubis Raptor]

I was a user for about 2 years.

Cool. So this means I can become a mod over the years...right?

 

[Showtime]

Cool. So this means I can become a mod over the years...right?

It depends, there is a lot of competition. They choose a select few out of 30,000 some odd posters.

 

[X Knight]

so umm.....how exactly does one get banned here on the hype???

 

[Showtime]

I don't understand your question, what do you mean by "how"?

 

[X Knight]

oh, sorry.

should have clarified it better.

I guess I was trying to find out what kinds of actions / behaviors that would normally result in a poster getting banned.....

 

[Showtime]

Check out the Hype Rules, that is a good place to start.

 

[X Knight]

oh, ok. thanks!!

it just boggles my mind how some ppl could even get themselves banned in the first place, especially if there are written rules.

plus just the common sense rules of decency and civility.........

Well, I imagine some here don't really care if they get banned or not. If they wanna cause trouble, they'll cause trouble.

As far as decency and civility are concerned, well, some people may define those differently. What may be perfectly acceptable to one person may be downright offensive to another.

 

[Anubis Raptor]

If they wanna cause trouble, they'll cause trouble.

Question:

Why join a forum if you know you're up to no good???

Thats waisting time you could be spending doing the more important things in life.

Just as long you don't go mad with power. I hope the "Mass Destruction" title under your name isn't something to do with Saddam Hussein. Hey, he went mad with power.


Just teasing you, man.

Some people are just dumb or too immature, that why. They just think it fun to be immature & cause chaos for no stupid reason(*cough*Countingdown*cough*). If many are in their 20s or 30s or whatever, they should act their age & not be so childish with all the flaming & ranting they do. It's sad, really.
