I remember when I first joined it was a place filled with people talking about all sorts of things. Now it's spammed with inappropriate topics and hackers that Gaia just lets run wild. There are a LOT of topics in the Chatterbox that are against Gaia rule. I remember I posted one thing in there while I was wearing an ancient katana and my PM box started getting spammed with "mods" asking for my password. They're like hounds in there or something .___.

So let's smarten it up. I suppose we get a flocke of us higher life-forms and post intellectual topics and keep bumping up each other's topics. Maybe it'll encourage others to return if the word of intelligent life returns.

Think of it like the movie Wall-E. Earth (chatterbox) used to be a place teeming with life but it became devoid of life from overuse. The humans (intelligence) migrated elsewhere, waiting until the earth would show signs of being inhabitable again. It took one little dinky sapling (us, respectively) to prove to the humans (intelligence) they could return.

We just need to organize. On an individual scale, nothing will be accomplished.

I like this idea, let's do it. Do you think we can pull it off in the GD too?

I love that movie! But, yes, I see your point. Good analogy!

Hmm...wonder how happy the CB mods would be if we all sent in reports on a regular basis? =D

(We should report threads against the ToS. It'll help our battle. Now for fancy paragraph smile
We will slowly grow in numbers. Once we've reached a substantial point, we will infiltrate the Chatterbox, ready for battle. We shall create one intelligent thread. (Perhaps prohibit one-line posts?) With that thread will come the elixir of intelligence. We shall find the ones wounded (CBers) and feed them some of our elixir. Perhaps then, they'll spread the word of intelligence!
We can save the CB there's still some hope!

It's a curse really, they just do that so they can take the easy road, when everyone worked so hard, sadly i was stupid and i got my old account banned, to this day i still missed it, but like they say everything happens for a reason and i believe that their was a reason for it to happen to me

CB has always been filled with people breaking TOS and doing stupid stuff.
As far back as I can remember it has always been filled with noobs cybering and people running scams.

ED on the other hand is where you should go if you actually want intelligible conversation.

The GD is helpless.
It's already too far damaged.
The narcicists run it.
"OMG look at my beautiful picture. Marvel me so I can love myself even more!"
Yeah, no.
I think the chatterbox is still up for a run, though.

i say chatter box might have some chance of redemption, it generally has nice users. GD = hopeless

Hey, before you guys bash all of the CB'ers, make sure that no one is a regular there, like myself. xd

Sometimes the CB does get a little too inappropriate. I usually just ignore it. There's always gonna be some bad apples. Some of that stuff sent to the CB was originally in the GD for going off-topic or whatever reason. I'm not so sure if CB's gonna be so easily changed. But I guess I can try and start helping, because every little bit counts, right?

I don't think the CB can change anymore, there are to many Spammers/Bots to keep the first page clean from spam and most topics I see that are not Bump topics generally are about the poster trying to get attention our announcing that they are going offline (Like anyone cares.)

I also hate how there are people there trying to get the first post in every new topic >.<

I tought it was about chatting there, but it's just a bunch of spam and some screams for attention...
