I've only been visiting for 18 months or so and it seems to have got worse in that time.
Banning people is the only way to solve these problems. if you wait for people to get bored the decent posters leave before them.
It's quite simple - enforce rules that mean ad hominem attacks lead to a ban. let people make arguments but backed by reason - that's the fun in forums.
One of my first posts got a response from GDforever of 'no one gives a shit about your opinion'. Not exactly very nice and especially coming from a poster that mainly gives 'opinion'.
I personally like to hear other people's opinions, and 'respectfor others' is what it should all be about.

Here is my tuppence for what it's worth.
As one of the oldest active members, I've seen the forum changing big style in the last few years. I don't think that it's just L4E that's changed however, forums/Internet in general has changed significantly over the last few years. The Internet does just seem to be a place that people can hide behind a profile and abuse people.
I hardly frequent the Oasis parts of these forums anymore, which is a shame since I've been a fan since early '94 and probably have a lot to offer discussions in these sections, just can't be arsed with all the kiddy-on hard men though.

it's only two people that come in this section and start shit, leak4ever and hugose. if they were ignored it'd stop. and tomlivesforever isn't completely innocent in past matters, he baits gdforever all the time. also, truefaith throws in snide comments in the Noel section even as of today. and i'm not even gonna get started with lgfavre. i think the reason webm@ster doesn't take more drastic steps, especially with this section is because BDI aren't really doing much as of now, like promoting anything or what not and webm@ster figures all this turmoil will just fade away. God bless. So coments aren't allowed in Noel's section ? You're definition of a fan forum is to post "Noel is great" "great news", "can't wait". The forum would be pretty boring. I give arguments when I critisizes something, sometimes I fall into very long boring debates with gd or spanelli, but they're looking for it let's be honest. What I do is being a little critical sometimes, and when I like something about HFB I say it too, same for BDI, I don't think everything hey do is genius, far from it. Same apply for others members. You on the other hand, spam the section with your annoying catchphrase and Leak4ver troll it by his constant post to say Liam is twat. Not the same thing to me. YOU NEED TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BEING CRITICAL AND TROLLING. NOT THE SAME THING. your negative comments are to bait people. I don't pick sides. i fucking hate everyone and i'm simply waiting for the green light to start the armageddon and embrace our natural primitive instinct. i also realize that anything Oasis-related is well past their prime, and aren't all that relevent anymore. yeah once in a while we'll get a good song but nothing spectacular, it's no longer the 90's. Oasis matured, aged, ran the cycle of every other band. i've grown with them. and if you don't wanna know my daily weight, and if i'm taking Vicodin to build muscle mass, if i'm having a great hair day or my love of bikini mud wrestling then everyone should stop stupid fucking arguments. Christ! the people of this forum take the break-up of Oasis and the now various reformations of the band more seriois than the bands themselves! God bless.

Oasis are still relevant IMO and there's no problem with some people having arguments- not as many as there is- but you can't agree with everyone. It's more the tone of some of the arguments, when they start to get personal and not about the music then it should stop

A thread about how this forum is descending into farce, has descended into farce. What a surprise.

Massive bans, webbo, massive bans. Ban them all and let the zombies come back to make threads complaining, just to move them to a new board with a fun name. Make it a game, with lots of rules that may contradict the previous ones. Everytime someone asks for a ban, warning bar. Everytime someone complains about other user posts, ban. Everytime someone replies a loooooong thread about politics no one should ever have posted, ip ban. Every time a new thread is created asking the same thing resolved on another thread 2 pages away, public laugh and ban. Let the cool mods do their thing. If not, I'm gonna go build my own theme park, with blackjack. And hookers. that really made me laugh out loud ;D

For those who pick sides Noel/Liam you are idiots to those who think about picking sides you are potential idiots and to the rest of you PENGUINS ARE THE ANSWER!

Because I know that post had more context than you are saying

nah, everybody can express their opinion, people have always had different opinions on things even when oasis were together there always was the liam vs. Noel thing because that's how they always presented themselves from day one. this being said, there is no need for crazy nasty "posts" like we've seen
I like Noel's HFB tons more than BDI but I don't feel the need to insult anyone who doesn't agree

This forum still rocks and rolls. Sorry I've been absent for a while. Took a break over summer to just mellow out on life and everything maybe some of yall should do the same People are gonna disagree but hey thats the humanity. We don't need to insult another but again its in a human nature but we can attempt to be polite to one another and debate respectfully. I've been on here six years and the forum goes through different eras, it's just all part of how the way things go. Anyways not to glorify myself but I'll be posting a bit more now. It's good to be back.
