Emasher Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 One argument we've had against a gaming subforum is it would then put people in the mindset, or habit of, posting short little crappy spam stuff. Then just don't count posts for that board.
Supergrunch Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Then just don't count posts for that board. He means that the problem would bleed out to other boards.
Emasher Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Then can't that be dealt with if it occurs.
ReZourceman Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Then can't that be dealt with if it occurs. Quoted for truth.
Ashley Posted November 29, 2007 Author Posted November 29, 2007 Then can't that be dealt with if it occurs. And you can have fun in the games board if we made one :p (and please, 'if', you saw the ramifications of the MPT)
ShadowV7 Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 If people spammed the sub forums then you can give them a day/week ban untill they learn not to do short crappy posts, and if they got temp bans they would know not to spam in other boards, especially since it can lead to a full ban.
Ashley Posted November 29, 2007 Author Posted November 29, 2007 As grunch said. Its not that they'd spam the non-post-affecting subforum (well, they would but it wouldn't be a concern) but they would then become used to that kind of posting. Particularly newbies who are more subseptable to do it anyway.
Emasher Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Particularly newbies who are more subseptable to do it anyway. Then don't let newbies use the subform.
McPhee Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 I think its a good idea, worth a trial at least?
Gaijin von Snikbah Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 Would a Funny Pictures Thread be out of line? I think it could hold its own against the Funny Videos and Links thread.
AshMat Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 If they're for actual games then people aren't going to go into the threads to make useless posts..
Emasher Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 Would a Funny Pictures Thread be out of line? I think it could hold its own against the Funny Videos and Links thread. I've got a better idea, how about we find the 3 old ones, merge them and make them a stickie.
Ashley Posted November 30, 2007 Author Posted November 30, 2007 Would a Funny Pictures Thread be out of line? I think it could hold its own against the Funny Videos and Links thread. Its part of the funny vids etc thread. Hence the etc.
Emasher Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 That and make us laugh plus the old one are down many pages. I think they aught to be merged and made sticky. Edit: oh and get rid of the light line on the edge of the banner.
Guest Stefkov Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 Yeah noticed that yesterday. It wasn't there the day before, I thought it was something extra for the stretchable theme. It is a bit eye catching.
Emasher Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 The stretchable them doesn't even have that banner, though it would make sense because it would look like its fading into the white.
Mr-Paul Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 How about a nice christmassy banner at the top instead of the Link's Crossbow Training one? It's only 2 weeks to christmas and I think it would be nice to make the site a bit more festive!
Slaggis Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 How about a nice christmassy banner at the top instead of the Link's Crossbow Training one? It's only 2 weeks to christmas and I think it would be nice to make the site a bit more festive! I second that. It would look awesome to have a christmas banner.
Tellyn Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Give it a few days and I think you'll be more than happy.
ReZourceman Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Give it a few days and I think you'll be more than happy. Damn right! Ive seen the final product!
ReZourceman Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Nay! It's literally made of magic! Are you saying mine isn't?
Tellyn Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Are you saying mine isn't? Yours is made with magic, the actual header is Oompah-Loompah magic!
Emasher Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Damn right! Ive seen the final product! That's pretty good we ought to use that.
