Is the general intelligence of LOMCN at an all time low?

Hey guys.

For a while ive noticed that LOMCN is slowly dumbing down.

Be it from people not being able to spell, to people with the ability to structure a proper post. Back in the day people used to ridicule the thick and punish the insolent, these days it seems, people accept the thick, rude, vile and immature people as common place in our society.

This is none the more true on LOMCN.

The past year has seen some influential members of staff stand down from their positions and i can only see this has add to the liberally crap diction of our users.

A common example of todays speak:

'Hey guys lol omgsh i was leik and m8 omgsh i lold and il merku u**** hahaha ans **** maye cos if you comes to mi ouse int it meight id merk you brap rude haahaha'

If i ever see a post like that, i tend to ignore its content as the person is obviously too thick to craft even a simple sentence.

With the exception of blam who can do what he wants, it seems the older, more renouned users are the ones who can construct sentences, can forge arguments and generally have a conversation without the tendency to use lazy, splapdash speak.

The people who cannot spell, who cannot type properly and who cannot construct a simple sentence make LOMCN look messy untidy and childish, an appearence that older members like myself strive to avoid.

This post simply has no point. However it would be good to attain peoples views on the matter.

In answer to the question : 'Is LOMCN dumbing down, and what can be done if it should be done to stop it' ?

Re: Is the general intelligence of LOMCN at an all time low?

And so it begins. The legendary Beard is developing the "AHH f*** it" attitude. Yep, I agree with your post totally, that's the same reason I gave up the ghost. It's good to be involved with somthing you like doing, but you ask yourself "Why?" when the vast majority of the community cannot construct a bloody post right.

Re: Is the general intelligence of LOMCN at an all time low?

i agree a lot of people writing like that are actually trying to make a server. i shudder to think what the npc's are going to look like if they ever get it up and running.

the thing is why bother to spend 5 minutes trying to decode what someone has said, when they could have written it nicely or at least in semi-english so that the people who know things can understand what they need and actually help them

That's not true. All the admins are just too lazy to do anything about it :P

A VB Mod is needed that will translate retarded(text) speak into English.

I'm a chav and i dont talk like this, ''Yes blud we is gunna merk u irl meight my crew and my m8s from de hurd ***** we jack u up and take yo cash''

I can construct a proper sentance, I personally dont think being a chav has enything to do with it atall..Its the way people are brought up, As i said i'm a chav and i can act mature as enyone i want to, Yes fair enuff its getting abit out of hand and things need to be put into place to stop the community of lazy immature people getting worse.

Re: Is the general intelligence of LOMCN at an all time low?

The reason: more idiot 12-13 year olds who think typing like a complete mong is cool or its fast so therefore it's acceptable. Also there is a lot of foreigners coming onto the forums, who don't seem very good at their english lessons.

Re: Is the general intelligence of LOMCN at an all time low?

I think the problem is probably because mir is getting old, all the people that made LOMCN what it is have moved on. This forum will soon need resurrecting if it keeps going the way it is, its been on a downward spiral for sometime now.

This is off-topic but i looked at a Ragnarok Online server the other day it had 500+ people playing it, i looked at a RF Online server this had 500+ people playing it.. how does that compare with mir2 + mir3 put together? lol

Re: Is the general intelligence of LOMCN at an all time low?

I don't like either of them much, but if them games can get such players and there clients are also bigger than mirs (so its not a case of there all dial-up users), then why cant mir? Something somewhere is definitely wrong :P

Re: Is the general intelligence of LOMCN at an all time low?

To be honest. Mir is a fantastically awful game.

There is absolutely nothing unique about at, at all and people with intelligence aren't going to waste their time bothering about it. You are on a definate lost cause trying to perk the intelligence up around here. The only people who play it are idiots. Because the servers are so incredibly easy to create, it very much appeals to them. The rest of the intelligent people either troll GoT or are handed staff rights and basically. GoT round here isn't good enough to keep people posting and it never will be.

As for you "madmanmc" you're not a chav if you're 14 years old and on a computer. For starters. Chavs either can't afford computers or simply don't have time for them. Real chavs, don't exist at your age and real chavs would never label themselves as one. You're a disgusting human being. You're a wannabe chav. Which is straight up vomit. On another note, "madman" you still say 'lmao' so you're not that mature and you posted with several spelling mistakes and your grammar is off, so stop bigging yourself up, *****.

HAND.
