(NC) post on tone

you are right. i can see why people might not want to post that often for that reason. but this is no excuse for having an attitude.

manupod,

one poster's horrible post is another's interesting discussion. if you think a post sucks, dont participate in it. if you dont like people giving you preflop advice, just ignore it and move on. trying to change the way people post threads or what kind of advice they give is just pissing in to the wind.

I'd also add that lots of people will move to this forum from uNL, and may will be posting seemingly standard hands that they are unsure on because of the increased aggression at 100NL and higher. I don't thik it's fair that they get shot down in flames just because they are new to the higher stakes. We were all noobs once...

actually I take that back. I don't post much in MSNL b/c there are proportionally a lot more aholes there, so a good friendly community is important, but I don't think SSNL is that bad at all. if you take away ikestoys posts and people flaming Nielso we're all quite nice

SSNL may be nicer than MSNL, but that doesn't mean it's a very friendly place. I don't post as much in here as often as I used to or should be, but I still lurk a ton and have definitely noticed what the OP is saying. SSNL has gradually become a very unfriendly place.

I'm guessing this is because of all the horrible posts the good posters are expected to read through. It's supposed to be a forum for interesting discussion, not a 'post a bad hand have some good regs politely teach you how to play poker' place. Those people need a coach, not posting rights.

There's two solutions to this:

1) The "good posters" (whatever that means) should ignore threads they find to be standard/retreads/etc. No one is obligated to post in EVERY thread.

2) More mods/modding. Delete useless threads. Create some sort of weekly/monthly thread for basic questions.

get your noob out should be a weekly feature here, and the regs need to stop derailing it

You may have a problem with tilt.

The SSNL mods are very good.
