I''m somewhat new the game, and I read the forums a ton. This is my first post.

I don't think the guidelines are the problem. I think if people posted useful and constructed stuff while respecting other players in the forum we wouldn't be having this discussion. I see the same people posting nonsense and off-topic crap in almost every thread. A lot of the nonsense probably started off funny in the poster's head, but it really is just junk that needs to be filtered out. Most of the threads I've read that ended up being removed were 1 or 2 good posts and then the rest just complete rubbish.
I don't know the mods very well, but I'd rather have the long topics removed than have to waste my time reading them.
