What makes a good tipit member?

[Star_Fox]

Those who challenge the system.

 

Friendliness on the internet is a sign of weakness and insecurity.

 

Oh shut up.

[nine naked men]

That's more like it.

Amen brother.

A good tipit member should never give you up. They should never let you down and most of all, they should never run around and desert you.

It appears we just got Rick Rolled by Russia and/or the Beetles.. Abandon ship!

[Maleficus1055]

Beetles

Beatles*. Sorry I'm tired posting.

They should never make you cry, never say goodbye and never tell a lie and hurt you.

They should know the rules, and so do I.

[Vezon Dash]

As long as they don't like My Little Pony.

 

 

I have a feeling you just offended a lot of people.

 

You can't be serious about that right? That is like saying "I don't like forum members who are black."

 

Anyways.... I like forum members who don't go around hating (and announcing it) people just because they like something or don't like something. I also like those people who don't try to look like they know everything.

[Maleficus1055]

I don't like forum members who use the Deflection theme.

[Assume Nothing]

That's rather annoying. I've lost a post that I was about to submit as my computer restarted itself.

 

I'd say I look for similar qualities in Tipiters as I do with women

 

• 
   
  
• Ability to think and reason logically.
  
• Ability to communicate effectively and coherently.
  
• Ability to demonstrate prowess in a particular field or activity (Economics expert, or a good journalist)
  
• Someone who contributes with constructive criticism and praise where appropriate
  
• Someone who's somewhat open-minded to new ideas.
  
• Someone who doesn't come off as rude, immature, arrogant or pretentious.
  
• Someone who has the drive for big goals, yet are able to also be somewhat realistic
  
• Be respectful of all people regardless of background, ethnicity, colour, etc.
  
• Be approachable and respectable (good people skills)
  
• Fun, sociable character.
  

 

I think I'd name: Crocefisso, Stringcheze (a year prior to ban), compfreak847, and Pere Grin. There may be more, but that's what comes to mind.

 

EDIT -

 

Just all around friendliness is what I look for.

 

I don't see people who start fights as 'good' members.

 

Whilst inciting 'fights' may be wrong, I feel one must be able to stand their ground and defend their own views in a constructive way in order to be considered a 'good member'.

:sad:

[Nomrombom]

Logical thinkers.

[mcneilp]

Someone who isn't a [bleep] and contributes their viewpoint to topics.

[Guy]

I really don't mind people who challenge ideas and comments, so long as they do it in a mature way and not like 'hurr I am right, you are wrong. I wont listen to your arguments at all'. This isn't 4chan, it isn't really good to just totally ignore someone elses point of view.

 

Just generally though, someone that pushes the boundaries and brings up interesting and somewhat obscure, yet very interesting points or discussions. I especially like people with a strong point of view, so long as debating with them is not like debating with a brick wall :)

There's far too much of that happening on these very forums.

By fights, I mean ones that have nothing to do with the topic at hand. Attacking someone's posting style or the person themselves, for instance.

[I_am_Geed]

People who dont spitout useless posts, like I do sometimes.

 

When everyone contributes and doesnt flame / troll the [bleep] out of each other conversations can be quite interesting.

I've always viewed good tip.it member as someone who contributes an honest, from the heart thoughtful post to a discussion. Someone who respects other posters, and doesn't act innocent around friends when they have been banned and warned :P. People who are thoughtful, dedicated, driven, and capable of thinking, i admire those who can question authority, and both understand the need for it. I think the bottom line though, is a user who respects the other users, is a good member.

 

 

They are becoming rare these days, and it's sad. Tip.it's our community, our house, OURS, we make it what we want, and from the general posting style of the masses, no one seems to want much overall, it's depressing.

But if someone's posting style is not conducive to debate, it must be rectified, otherwise by definition they aren't a good Tip.It member.

What about... skeptics? No, really, people who take a slightly cynical view of the world, a bit like me.
