This is particularly for the DJ Discussion Forum, but if more people followed the rules below, we'd become an overall better forum and have overall less trolls and KBJ's.
1. Do not talk about what you know nothing about.
I see this a lot particularly in my topics. If you don't know about something, do not give advice on it. If you've never kiss closed, don't give another person advice on kiss closing. If you've never gotten a number, don't give advice to someone on getting the number. It's simple, unless you've actually experienced something in field, do not give advice to others about it.
2. There's a line between criticism and hating and people on this board don't know it.
Yes, there's a line between criticism and hating. Criticism is giving people somewhat harsh advice, but it's meant to be productive. Yes, productive. Hating is what it is, straight hating on a person for no good reason. Like if a person has a completely good thread and you just come in there writing a post hating on the topic guy, that's hating. Also like advice, don't criticize a person if you have no idea what you're talking or are just a plain hypocrite.
3. If someone doesn't take your advice/criticism do not attempt to argue with them.
Simple, if someone doesn't take your advice or criticism do not attempt to argue with them. ESPECIALLY if you gave advice on something you clearly have no idea about. The mindset should be like this... person takes my advice great... person doesn't take my advice, it's no big deal. I see big flame wars spread from this, someone doesn't take advice and the person GIVING the advice starts the argument.
4. Don't troll perfectly good topics.
Don't troll perfectly good topics. But to understand this we must understand what trolling is. Trolling is posting something that has nothing to do with a topic. It's like if I had a thread about Mystery and seduction and someone goes "lulz did you see that new sex tape of Paris Hilton? it was hot lol". That's trolling. Trolling can also be posting random pictures of Steve Urkel in someones topic(MikeYikes). A troll can also be in the same realm as a KBJ, someone who acts like they go out, but don't.
5. Do not brag.
Don't brag in topics. Nobody cares how many f*cking girls you've laid especially when it has nothing to do with the topic. This could be considered trolling in some cases. Don't brag.
6. Don't hate on those who are actually going out.
For whatever reason you feel like hating on someone who's actually going out, don't. Because hate is the last thing we need on this forum. So don't hate.
7. Don't make assumptions about a person, if you do not know them or have little proof that what you're assuming is true, then don't make assumptions.
Simply put, don't make assumptions about a person. For instance, if you have no PROOF somebody's a nerd at their High School, don't say some sh*t like "You're probably a nerd". It's easy, unless you have proof that an assumption is true, don't make it. When you assume you make an ASS out of U and ME.
And that's all.
