You can keep me out of your contest.My posts are getting deleted for nothing.You guyz don't know what a quality post is.My posts which were regarded as good posts are being removed here by a person called, "LordOfLA" & though i'm posting thoughtful & interesting posts,i'm constantly getting warnings from him of being removed.
This competition is completely got up & it has only been organizaed so that no new people can win even if they try to contribute here.I've tried to contribute here as much as i can & i'm a member of several other forums with respect & people know me in other places.You guyz don't know me but that doesn't mean that you can do anything you want with us.I'm going to withdraw my name from this contest as i've found this is the most worthless,disgusting,humiliating to new people who joins & tries to contribute in your community. In my every post which hasn't written by me,i've provided a link to the source & still i'm getting the warnings from the same moderator that i'm spamming. Let me say you, i don't give a damn about what you may think.I would rather stay in good communities where people are friendly ,supportive & don't try to use their power on new people who joins & tries to contribute in their community. So, good bye.I would rather prefer to stay in a good place, not somewhere where people don't know how to behave with new people.Thank you.I'll certainly write about it to Mr.Nick white(buzzcorps.com). Have a good day.Bye. |

Yes with this type of system no new members can sign up and keep giving people rep without earning their power points. New members start out from 0.

You also have to remember that this is a contest and you're receiving all this for free anyway so there should be no reason to complain. This contest is being held fairly, everyone including new and old members have equal opportunity to win

Say what you like but there is something fishy going on here.If i was spamming, how did i get 487 reputations ? I don't want to argue.I've already put too much time ,effort & energy here to contribute but if you don't allow me to compete just because you don't know what is a good post & what is a bad post.Contests come & go.Self respect comes first.

Copying half of another sites information and news and pasting it here in a new thread for everything is generally not accepted. edit:
I'm sorry you feel that way about the contest or the forum, but had you taken the time to read our general guidelines on acceptable behavior, you may have understood more of why the posts were deleted. Beyond that, I would mention again, that copying and pasting from another site may be ok once or twice - but spamming our forum with content that is not your own in an effort to win the contest is not acceptable. This warning goes out to all the members trying to win. -- Deleted some followup posts by some other users to clean this up a bit (sorry guys!) |

Thank you fitz.I appreciate the way you have directed me to your guidelines.I'm new here & i was generally posting here like i do in other places & nobody had any problem ever.But i agree, you do have a separate guidelines for posting & i didn't know that.You tell me sir, how would you feel if you join somewhere & you get warnings of getting banned everytime & everything you do.He should have directed me to your guidelines firstso that i could know that this community has a different set of rules from other places.I didn't know that because he never mentioned about that.Anyways, thank you for the guidelines.I really didn't know that posting information from other sites is not allowed here even though i'm providing links or giving credit to the sources where applicable.Even people said me that i'm copy pasting articles (couldn'tn't give me a solid proof for that though) which was totally written by me & can't be found anywhere else on the net.Someone told me i'm copy pasting two lines from an XP book for my 1000+ lines of Vista article.You guyz are strange,unique & out of this world.
Prove me that atleast one of my articles,let's say "Codec- Headache" is copy-pasted from someone else's work.You just can't delete my posts based on you don't like me or what you may think about me.Prove me that this article is copy pasted (by showing a link to another site obviously) & if you can find a link where you can show me that i've copy pasted someone else's work,then ban me or if you can't find it,then bring my post back & give me credit.But i know, neither you can prove me that i've copy pasting other people's work ,nor you can put my post back.How can you find my own thing posted by other person anyways ? There's no transparency in what you are doing & you are completely using your power unfairly.So, what will you say this ? Is this fair ? But it's ok.I may return here when the contest is over to proove that i'm not a spammer & i'm a member of atleast 20+ good communities and if u think that, i'm a spammer,i shouldn't compete in your contest because that will be unfair for those you think the honest contestants. Good luck everyone. |

Hello sushrukh,
Since you are calling out our mods and admins for supposedly not liking you and deleting your content for supposed spamming, I wanted to provide you with the hard evidence you are asking for. Each and every thread that LordofLA removed has been removed because of either a straight copy and paste without source information, or straight copy and paste with source information. At osnn.net we attempt to provide discussion, improve peoples skills and abilities and we want original content. Copy and pasting two paragraphs from an article and then linking to it is not the way to do it. Hotlinking images to other web blogs is considered rude, but it is even worse when you do it and steal their content and don't even give them credit. Here goes: RAID - A guide for dummies
---- Enable the (Hidden) Administrator account on Vista
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windo...windows-vista/ ---- FireFox Addons
---- Some Quality FPS Games I've found on the Net-- Available 4 Free To Dwld
---- Eco Speakers, built from Recycled Cardboard
---- 10MB Hard-Drive - Only $3398!
---- [Article] Codec Headache
---- 11 Percent Of Gamers Own Unopened Games
---- Websites offering International Shipping
---- Moving Files from Windows to Mac
---- Create an Windows XP Live CD
---- How to prevent CHKDSK from running every time your PC Starts
---- We enjoy having new members that bring original content, but we cannot have people spamming old content, copy and pasting from other websites all in the hope of winning some contest. The actions taken by mods were taken to keep OSNN.net both clean, and a place to come to and discuss new ideas and not have it be the same regurgitated content that is already plastered all over the net. Feel free to answer peoples questions, to become engaged in the community, but provide new and original content. New ideas, new topics of discussion, don't just copy and paste from other communities and websites. Thank you, Bert JW Regeer |

I'll give the last few pages of this thread a good going over when I get a moment, but I am doing some work on the UCP Mini and want to rewrite a function (as well as deciding what I want it to do) and clean my fish tank (messy bastards)

HP and Buzz Corps invited me to check out the hardware and give it away, so I guess ultimately the competition was my idea
