What makes CDRSOFT such a civil board -- Is it the Europeans?

ChickenMan said:
As Woody has said, we are a very multinational group here, like 2 of the Admin are Australians, one Canadian and the other European.

Any well run business or forum is "lead by example" If the Managers or Admin/Mods/Goldies are "not nice" then the business or forum will be "not nice" regardless of where it is.

We attempt to lead by example here.
i'm sorry but i cant agree with that, these forums are well run and polite that is good, but i can assure you i come from a well run forum and its nothing to do with the mods or admins that we get a sizeable number of prats :(..... we clear them out if they start causing trouble but sadly many of them feel its required to sign up again to come back on and continue their flaming, this is never the fault of the normal members or the mod/admin because we all get upset by these troublemakers, i guess its just one of the hazzards of having 50,000 + members.

still keep up the good work here and long may you continue to have peace and be trouble free.

:eek: We can only try our best here to stop troublemakers from flaming and comin back to our forum! Yes many try to sign up and use new id's.But wit our Adim/Mods & GM's we tend to B on de ball most times & de one's dat might get away or tink they've got away will B give de Boot (Exit). Also our members to play a very big part in warnin us of unfriendly activity or broken rule's witin our forum by usin de :> Report this post to a moderator, link witin in de threads.
We give our best each and every day, we to have Bad dayz but we as Adim/Mods & GM's have to leave dat outside our forum it's all about makin new friends sharin infomation most of all enjoyin oneself. Live by our Code and you be fine witout member's dis would not B Home ;)
 
you can see how long i have been a member here and the one single thing that impressed me the very first day (appart form the knowledge,the quality of posts and the variety of topics hehe) was the fact that a little over 5 mins after i posted a question i was welcomed by a senior member(ZoZekool),that impressed me and set the tone for my post from that moment,i think if you want a site to be profesional and friendly then everyone has to do it,as stated the admins,mods,etc do a brilliant job of keeping it all sorted,but for me it was the nice and polite welcome i got within mins that set my tone for this forum, i use my manners every single day i sometimes wonder why people get on these forums and seam to leave there manners at the door, your still talking to a person at the other end even if he/she is 1 mile or 10,000 miles away they both deserve the same respect.
The admins,monds get respected because they show respect for there members and inturn all the members show respect for one another when posting, ok im rambling(first time ever), i hope i got my point across its just that THIS SITE IS AWESOME and we all play our part in that. ok enough off me.

Of course it's due to the Europeans (especially due to north-eastern englishmen !) ;) and our antipodean cousins such as Chicken Man and Caribbean cousins like Rasta BT (Wisconsin ? With a written accent like that ?) :D
And of course, theres a TRULY European lads like NB and ther other class acts. Then of course, Canadians like Woody and the Americans....hang on, thats EVERYBODY isnt it ? well, maybe thats just it. We're all in it together, matey. And not doing a bad job of being a league of nations at it either are we ? :D :D :D
 
May I also add praise for ALL the moderators, ALL of whom are quite, quite, EXCELLENT at what they do. Quite frankly I know of no other forum (and I am a member of a helluva lot) where the moderators even come CLOSE to these gents - (and ladies if there are any you just can't tell can you ? :D) And there are some good forums out there. And there are a lot of forums moderated by pompous prats too. They all should look at this forum and see how its done properly. ;)
 
For anyone that speaks German, look at this forum for a laugh : w*w.brennmeister.com/forum/ - things are so bad there they've banned people from posting - they've got a sin-bin area -the "Strafbank"- for users that have been temporarily or totally banned !!
 
All kind word's Phil K tanx but I can only say once again dat all Admin/Mod/GM & Members witout you where would we all B? You all make dis forum a meetin place and I tanx all Admin staff for dis place of rest and enjoyment...We here tanx you all for all your support..............;)
 
on the other boards i frequent, if you step out of line the mods jump in and you are out. keep it friendly, ask nicely, say thank you and give your opinion in an educated and informing way and it earns you a lot more respect and a friendlier board.

I have no problem with Rasta's talk. Being a geordie, I have an (admittedly light) accent, and the West indian accent is nice, along with welsh, cornish, and west country in general.
