so I posted a image of a world landmark that by accident I found on the net, its pretty much the statue of a guy in a horse, and the base is a rock with the exact shape off a Erebus, I found it funny and wanted to share to make ppl smile, instead of haha thats funny or lol, I get two guys saying me to stop posting (I very rarely post in this forums, and I never did anything more then giving my opinion on some subject), and a lock with this message from a moderator:

"Spamming, bumping and pyramid quoting are prohibited.

Spam is defined as the repetitive posting of the same topic or text or nonsensical posts that have no substance and are often designed to annoy other forum users. This includes “first” and “go back to [another game]” posts. Bumping posts in order to keep them near the top of the list is also prohibited. Petitions or "/signed" posts are a version of bumping and likewise are not permitted. Pyramid quoting is a response to a forum thread that contains the quotes of four or more previous posters, sometimes with additional spaces added unnecessarily. Posts of this nature are not conducive to community spirit and are unwelcome."

so reading this wtf I did that made those ppl anger, I just found it funny and it is a real landmark in the world nothing invented or a bad image or a bad link (wikipedia) or anything... sigh..

Yeah, some people just don't like history.

Even though I didn't see the link, +1 LIKE for you.

You're complaining about this link [1]. I must say: How do you intend to discuss something eve-related with a picture and no context? Mods were right to lock the thread.

It would be fine in off-topic. It isn't fine in "General (EVE related) Discussion".

Mayhaps it would have worked in Out of Pod Experience.

edit: Also. it had absolutely no context or discussion content. Not even "Hey, is this not funny?" A true what the hell moment when viewing.

Actually, I call foul on the moderator. the best course of action is to just move to off topic forums. Not lock it.

1. The rock in the pic DOES LOOK LIKE AN EREBUS!

2. I found it hilarious.

3. I just think you people have a personal bias against giant Gallente turds.

4. I trained up forum-thermal resistance skillbook to level 5. Flame away at me if you wish.

I saw your post and thought it was funny. Unfortunately I could not comment as the thread was locked. Sad

it's pathetic that your thread was locked. I apologize for CCP. Sometimes they forget who pay their paychecks.
