    Well, thankfully we have some good Mods here that nip most of it in the bud, before it gets out of hand.. Mods..You have a thankless job, and you do it well,If it wasn't for you guys, this site would turn into another Barfcom. Thank you for preventing that from happening.

    The Tardratieff wave is described as sinusoidal-like cycles in the modern gun forum environment. At the bottom of the cycle, a forum is populated by knowledgeable, experienced veterans and there is a healthy influx of newbies who read stickies and follow the rules. At the top of the cycle, retards flood in from sites like Glocktalk, Arfcom, indianagundouches.com, militaryphotos.net, along with their cousins the airsofters and video gamers, and they threaten to overwhelm the existing site culture with their douchebag questions, attitudes, and general want to have their retarded choices confirmed instead of actually learning something.

    It appears we are once again on the uphill slope of the M4Carbine.net Tardratieff wave. Be aware, and plan accordingly.

    LOL, yes all forums go through it, but this one has mods that are active and have little tolerance for rude/ignorant people.

    Just use the report button and POOF, one will appear!

    I agree.
    Trying to point these guys in the right direction is met with hostility.
    I am also noticing a lot of new members validating the bad decisions of others.


    Perhaps LF type rules are in order?

    They are illigetimate weapons that have no real purpose other than to attract retards to the gun community.

    I think this place has been a nice middle ground between barfcom and LF/Socnet style moderating. I'd like to see it stay there.

    I have nothing against helping someone but I'd like to see new members spend a little time in a New Members forum before they're allowed to flood other forums with "lube" and "which is better" type threads.

    isn't there some type of post count requirement here in General Discussion?...

    My favorite is not that he has turned his rifle into an abomination, but that he refuses to accept advice when given.
    Why do the loudest do the least?
