Dyson Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Because it'd deteriorate in to the thread we currently have. Why not have a signature/avatar discussion thread where you can ask for it to be rated and get tips etc etc. It'd work better than an "above poster" one.

Mundi Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Wouldn't it end up the same? People asking someone to rate their sig/ava plus people asking for help. Plus asking for advice on your sigs an avatars belongs more in the creative board rather than the board is already is in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 Definitions of 'new' would then be questioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksnowman Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Definitions of 'new' would then be questioned. Its actually funny you should say that. The definition of the word new is already being debated in this very thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayseven Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 A general sig/avatar 'help' thread would be way better than anything involving such a detrimental use of rating things. There is a help thread stickied in the creative board, but it is a typical sticky that nobody uses. Hell, the "rate the above..." threads would be better a) merged and b) without the "above" bit, instead focusing on individuals asking "can you rate my signature? tell me what's good/bad?". "Rate my signature/avatar". Bob is your pervy relative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AeroScap Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 What do you mean by implementation? Where would it be implemented? This is vbulletin, not phpbb, btw.Don't think it's necessary really, the rules are pretty clear on what's spam. But if you want, you can make a thread like that. sorta like below the avatar? v bulletin...hmmm something like this? http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=155945 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 sorta like below the avatar? v bulletin...hmmm something like this? http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=155945 From what I can tell that doesn't appear in users' posts or anything, just in their profile and on a public page mixed with everyones (if the user wishes for it to be public) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Dare Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Can we consider dropping the auto merge double post thing? all it's doing for me atm is stopping me posting new stuff in threads like my Diplomacy games that need updating, reguardless of who posted last.

The fish Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Unless we edit it and then delete it. No, mods and admins can see all posts in a thread, including an edit history (I think), and definitly deleted posts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure one mod made a post saying that they loved reading deleted posts and that we should edit them before we delete them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emasher Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Could that have been back on C-E though, with Xsorbit You can't see edit history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 There's no edit history. If you care that much about hiding what you said, yes you'll have to edit it first. But I assure you, nobody cares about your deleted posts. I mean most of the ones that aren't deleted are not worth reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 Can read deleted, but not edited. If he changed that message to say "I like rainbows" then deleted it we would have seen the rainbow message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Would it be possible for the name of this thread to be changed to "Comic Books General Discussion" http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?p=751708 Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 Meh its been done but theres something so bland about that, everything is "General" (hey at least everyone's desire to have "official" in a thread title seems to have died). "Your Comics" was a nice change of pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
