Yeah just because NMST is disbanded doesn't mean we can't still do good things in the forums. Like setting a good example and informing new users of what not to do.

I knew the mods wouldnt like all of this! i stated that in the begining. Instead of just useing NMST why dont we all just go to new mombasa with no intention but to have a interesting thread. If we start posting threads that are usefull and that have not been posted alot then new mombasa will become a better place slowly but surely. if we ignore spamer/flamers they will eventually stop. If we dont reply to them including posting the rules they will stop and see that everybody just ignores them. It take time.
NMST team started out good but shiskas right, we did get out of hand. it all started with the signatures. I mean Saying that your part of "NMST- Protecting the New Mombasa forum". Act like your elite from everyone else and where not. The best way of doing good is to follow the rules and let the mod do there jobs. Allthough i think we need more so a mod can be on every minute of the day.

That was my thought on the subject and every thing didnt come out the way i wanted it to. I am not "one with the words!"

*claps*

Exactly, and you don't need a special title or faction motivation to do this. Maybe if some of you posted in there more often, and quit being so afraid of a few conflicting thoughts, it'd be a better place to hang

I tried that. It does get kinda boring when your post fly's off the page in 5 minutes. =/

P.S. over egsadurtaion used in post. (Why can't i spell that word >[! *runs off and has tantrum*)

I officially started this, so I will now officially end it.

NMST is OVER. Disbanded. We were not helping out, we were being elitists. While this was in no way my intention for the original group, it seems to have gone that way.

Yes JAY, you were right. I am willing to accept that. You saw what I could not-NMST becoming something I didnt really want it to be. A mod-like group, telling people what to do without any official powers. I saw a group of Septagonians going in and helping out new guys, posting interesting things, and trying to put the cooler on flame wars.

However, I am disheartened at your accusations of my 'Trying to play moderator'. I was not. I was trying to help the moderators, work alongside them, and help out the new guys. There is no need for your 'But some of the people who started this were playin Mod'. I know who you are talking about. Moi.

My apologies for any problems I caused. If there is anything I can do for anyone, PM me.

NMST members, go to the forum. There is an update there. Thank you.

I don't know why but I was thinking of history class, and the NMST reminds me a little like communism...good intensions but bad out turn.

Man, one thing I'd like to say though is, you've got the right ideas. Just don't interfere with flame wars, they'll die out. Ignore spam, the spammer is only doing it for his own personal fun. They always get tired of it in the end.

But I never dissed your idea about posting good posts in there etc. And I can assure you that I get no kick, nor do I gain anything from being right. I come here and post on Bungie for fun and also *arguement and discussion.

Finally, just post good threads anyway. Have some fun! Just ignore the idiots, they'll soon get sick of being moronic if they feel left out of a good discussion.

;)

*arguement is of course not to get mixed up with flaming.

Yes I agree with Jay. I've seen this unfold over the days and you started with good intentions to make the forums nicer by starting to post good topics but with the pre-written notes and crap it went alittle too far I think. You should definately keep trying but I think we should just keep to posting good posts in there instead of pointing out other peoples bad posts. Anything more than that is going too far. I bet I am the 1,000th person to say this though hehe.

Every opinion is welcome, no matter how many similar responses there have been.
