4815162342 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) Remember: these guidelines are put in place to protect you and this community. We want everyone to help do their part in maintaining and building a thriving, healthy, and inviting community for new users in addition to our established and veteran members. [*]The Golden Rule: Treat and respect others as you would like to be treated and respected. Which leads to... [*]No Personal Attacks: If you post something that is meant to tease or hurt someone in *any* way as defined by the Moderators, it will not be tolerated. This can include, but is not limited to, name-calling. Please note that if someone is attacking you, you should use the “Report” button to submit to the post for review by the forum staff. Flaming and trolling are not allowed. [*]What are "flaming" and "trolling"?: Anything meant to be overly-provocative and/or intentionally disrupt the natural, civil nature of a topic or forum. If you have to be warned consistently for either of these, you risk being temporarily suspended or permanently banned. Addendum: Repeated and monotonous attacks or otherwise "hateful" comments about a person--whether they are a member of this forum or not--will be interpreted as trolling and therefore be subject to potential warnings. In other words, feel free to share your opinion on an actor, but don't abuse that freedom with non-constructive subjective insults that have no relevance to the forum and its purpose. [*]ONE Account Per Person: If for some reason you need to make a new account, as long as you don't use your old one anymore you will be fine but you MUST contact a moderator to let them you have made a new account. That way, we can close your old one. If a user is caught using more than one account without having previously spoken to a staff member, you will be made to choose one account and stick with it. If by any chance you are using a public computer--which means the IP address may be shared with other users--please inform any of the staff members. These particular guidelines are designed to protect the board against spammers and other disruptive users. [*]Swearing: Allowed in moderation. If you drop the "f-bomb" every other word in a post, common sense would dictate that to be far from "moderation". If you're dropping f-bombs in a high volume of your posts, your account will be flagged for review. Ultimately, this is subject to the opinion of the staff. Just don't go overboard, and never swear at someone in an insulting or intentionally offense manner. If you do, you will be banned from the forum. Additionally: No racial slurs allowed -- period. If the luxury of swearing is abused on a consistent basis by a significant number of members, filters will be put into place. [*]Pictures: Keep them "PG-13". Most pictures should be safe to view at work. If you create a thread where you plan to post pictures that are PG-13, but not pictures that should be on a school or work computer, then you must add a warning (something like "Not Safe For Work") in the Topic Title or Topic Description. Please do not post any pictures that may get people into trouble due to not having that warning. Also, keep your signatures and avatars safe-for-work. Pictures that are "R-rated" will not be allowed in signatures. Any type of pornographic imagery is strictly prohibited and will result in the member who posted it getting banned from the forums. Lastly, we ask that you please don't go overboard with pictures, smilies/emoticons, or animated GIFs on posts, signatures, avatars, or anything else. This can create a very messy, cluttered board that decreases the visual appeal of the forum, as well as hogs more bandwidth than necessary. Use your best judgment. http://forums.boxoffice.com/index.php?/forum-4/announcement-1-forum-staff-rules-guidelines-faq/ I fail to see any change in the rules aside from a greater emphasis on "no personal attacks."

I see this as a direct and biased discrimination against Fishnets and I will not stand for it. :rant: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yeah, I'm pretty sure if you are obsessively attacking someone you will be warned. You can say minor stuff, just don't do it every hour of every day and you'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Gittes Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Who would have won if DDL wasn't Lincoln this year ? Cooper ? One thing for sure, Phoenix would have fucking dominated the critics' groups. But Jackman would have likely taken the Oscar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) You are all so wrong people,so wrong.

CoolioD1 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 My favourite "bit" of the night was MacFarlane's intro for Christopher Plummer. Made me lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weinstein wouldn't have Waltz, Phoenix and Cooper all in the Best Actor race. Waltz would still be supporting and Weinstein would be milking Phoenix's critics' awards for all they'd be worth and/or hyping up Cooper as the guy who just up and knocked everyone's socks off without them ever expecting it, with a very sympathetic and human performance. That's how I see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robertron Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Now that is a team. Waltz is thinking "Im smiling but i really fucking hate you all for making me look so short" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 We've been talking about the same five movies for four months. So yes, thank GOD this is over. Pretty much. If I read yet another Sasha Stone article devoted to Lincoln I seriously might blow up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Pretty much. If I read yet another Sasha Stone article devoted to Lincoln I seriously might blow up. Or a Jeff Wells article about Silver Linings Playbook. Seriously, I might just take a hiatus from the whole awards race thing next year.

riczhang Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 For everyone complaining about them not getting the Bonds on stage, Anne says that they planned on doing it but Roger Moore and Sean Connery both said no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
