Petition to Ban Max Threads

[RedChrono]

Every single day, you see 2-3 brand new threads popping up with "Max" somewhere in the title. They all have the same couple topics:

1) Hey I've been playing DDR for 3 months and I jsut pased max300, am I good?

2) Hey I've been playing DDR for 14 minutes and I need stamina tips cause MaxUnlimited is hard, I get to the freeze then I die! help!

3) Wow I almost AA'd 300, except i got 34 misses and like 50 goods and more greats than perfects! I'm sure I'll get it tomorrow.

Look people, here's the lowdown. Yes, the Max's are challenging. Yes, they are stamina draining. It can take some people a year of practice before they can pass it, and some n00bs can pass it after 1 week of playing DDR. Yes, they CAN be AA'd (and YES, AAAd in rare cases). Did you just AA it? Good for you. Did you just barely pass it with no bar and a C for a grade? Good for you.

I am absolutely sick of threads about Max. I could go on for another hour about why these things are annoying, but I'm sure you all already know what they all are.

I am asking you people to "sign" this petition to ban any threads that have "Max, 300, Unlimited, Legend" in them. If no one signs it, so what. Maybe now I can annoy the people that annoy me with their threads.

I think it's a good idea, but we already have the Newbie accomplishments sticky.

The only problem is the newbs don't use it.

Oh, and you should try posting this in the site feedback forum

[Trance Of Sorrow]

Yeah, I feel you man....I'm getting sick of seeing them too!!

[nick.]

Ya well, this IS the place (and the only place) where people can talk about their accomplishments.

And another thing, if you are sick of seeing max threads, then dont read them! You have that option you know.

How about maybe instead of trying to ban them...you just don't read them? Just a thought. (I passed MaxX yesterday btw)

How about making a topic about it and stickying it.
And whoever makes a seperate topic about it, gets it locked.

Somewhere in the faq it's stated that the N/N/I thread is a fairly general purpose thread, and that you can post pretty much anything you want on here, if its on-ddr topic, and not have a problem. I do agree that there be a limitation on them; it is irritating to see all the ones where people are in between passing and AA. But I'd say that if they just passed it on heavy, that's more than just a newbie accomplishment, but also not something to post about frequently. I suggest there is a post asking to limit it, but I don't think such future posts should be warned. I mean, I'm gonna want to post once I finally AA it. 22 missteps and counting. but wait nevermind, everyone here hates me for saying that.

If we ban those topic there will not be a place for tehm to do so, PAssing a MAX song is a great acomplishement, maybe not for you people who can A it or above most of the time. But for the majority of the people, It feel good to post this, you dont like it, dont read it. I see sometime some post that have no interest to, i dont get mad over it, i simply read other stuff..

[Tsunami Forever]

How about we ban all threads that go in the wrong place like this one?

If this is in the wrong place, the mod could MOVE them to the right place instead of locking it, but some mod are too lazy to do so..

I really think it's a never ending cycle around here.

Max300 comes out
The first people to play it say it's really hard
Good people get good grades

Then the cycle begins

They post about it here
N00bs read good people play Max300
N00bs play Max300
N00bs post about it here
More n00bs read about people (in general) playing Max300

Shake until frosty.

We need more people saying the Maxes aren't fun at all. Quite frankly, I find them draining and hard on the ears.

Sounds like a good petition.

Though I have a better one.

How about...we make a petition to ban threads that try to ban threads.

Basically saying. (Let them have their fun. The Maxes aren't easy and I think are worth posting. Just as long as there arent 2-3 of them a day indeed. But NNI is where people post their accomplishments.)

I think the same thing but then I tell myself that Maxes are hard. And they are really proud of themselves for what they got. I cant complain.

How about just making a Max sticky?

I know the Maxes are hard, I know they're tiring, I know you have to be really good to clear them (which is why I can't last 40 seconds in LoM), but having Max threads coming out the wazoo is a waste of bandwidth.

...and again...don't read them. Thread's usually are pretty well labeled...I passed Paranioa Survivor today with a C. Twice.
