Marsh Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 I think that though the forums are still generally a friendly place that we should start being more careful in what we say to newcomers and everyone in general. I think what sets us apart from the other engines is that this is a friendly community where everyone **should** feel welcome. If you see someone posting a question that has been answered a dozen times, either point him towards a relevant topic or simply ignore it. Flaming is never ok, or warranted. I will be going through the forum in the next few days handing out warnings to anyone that is posting insulting or crude material.You cant prevent the flow of improper posts or repeated questions but that doesn't give you the right to post negative comments back. You are just stooping to there level. So it basically comes down to if you feel annoyed or have a problem with a member, use the report function and leave it alone.Heres to making and keeping Eclipse a friendly and newcomer friendly atmosphere.

James Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 It's not being mean it's how game dev is with newbies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsh Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 No point in putting people down and calling them newbs. Its not like were are professional game makers. There is a reason where using a free no knowledge needed engine. No point in thinking your better then anyone else here. If you don't have something nice to say don't say nothing.

Marsh Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 @Spike:> in england, we have learned to never question the marshHeh, remember that world domination thread we had on the green forums when it first started. Where everyone picked a country and tried to take over the world.Not sure why anyone would argue to be a jerk to people that come to Eclipse though.
