Be too much of a dick? We don't have to ban you. We can just force all your posts to be approved by a mod before they show up to everyone else. Might be more aggravating than not being able to post at all.

Dude that's awesome!

Yeah it is...and Tom is right, that would be more aggravating than being banned.
I love it :)

Your sad devotion to those old boards hasn't given you the proper motivation for Stafford nor has it made you clairvoyant enough to figure out why Kennedy was bought out.

The whole liberal/pedophile thing is really bizarre. I wasn't aware of it because, as I stated, I've only poked around over there one other time since zee split, and that was pretty much a five-second visit because the format was terrible.

I reacted to this comment in particular
Quote:
Coach, I don't know how familiar you are with this crowd, but the mindsets of these people are far far from normal.

the same way I do when certain members of my family irl tells me that I am "not normal" in what is meant to be a derogatory fashion. Secretly, I am pleased.

I wouldn't mind seeing them have to put up with some liberalism. :P

It's also nice to have our official team site not suck ass, and get some insight and perspective from others. There's a place for both boards I think. We'll see how it goes. That system looks nice now, but it could collapse under load, or they might change something to make it suck.

We shall just have to see.


I wouldn't be surprised if it "collapsed under load." The old IP boards used to do that too. Not as bad as KickApps, which hits errors for me after 2-3 pageloads, and not as bad as Fusetalk, which was abysmally slow, but it still would collapse with heavy game traffic.

phpBB (so this forum) allows that too. Very useful. Until said person tries to make a million posts and you have to go back and delete them.

I'm loving the new theme - it's very harmonious - and I also love that they've given you guys real tools and are actively trying to perfect everything before it goes live.

Haha, the URL for the "new" boards is easy to find for anyone with half a brain.

My two cents...that white bar at the bottom has got to be made smaller or the same color as the post background. It is a big distraction.

Same can be said for the gold bar on the top. Takes up too much room. Especially since post date and time aren't in it...all it has is the username and post number...that wastes a lot of space. Plus, having the username in a separate bar from the user details is quite confusing.

Looks like a functional system but its layout leaves a lot to be desired. Lots of wasted space.

Ugh. That guy is such a HT and Ferret dick sucker. He made a thread honoring them on page 2! Come on! This dude needs friends.

He just seems like he implies that it's our fault. Yet, I've even seen, Squanto tried posting without saying anything bad, and he gets insulted because he posts here. Yet, we are the bad guys, correct?

i dont get it either, how we are the bad guys. but it appears this way. i think he just really likes HT... which is fine.

what i dont get is how HT can believe hes the savior in this. of course everyone THINKS they are correct, but i mean when you post things that vile and hate filled, i dont get how you can deflect that and blame elsewhere.

That's already been requested, and being looked at.

I dunno man. HT's gotta be pissed because he finally got to ravage a forum without getting banned again, and now he'll be asked to follow rules. GM 'doesn't care about what happened in the past', but agrees that people from SJ who post ruin threads simply because HT says we do.

So I don't know.

Yeah, I did overlook the hated comment.

I certainly don't hate the guy. Phil and those guys met him last year when he was up, said he was a blast to hang out with. I missed that night, and was looking forward to doing a car bomb with him next time he was here. Just didn't happen.

And you're a Libertarian Ed. Everyone hates you. :)


Ed's a librarian?

What they really need, are people that understand the binary language of message board moderation.

Lets just say that the fixes made today on the test boards for the new old board layout are amazing. You'll all love it I believe. Based on comments made today in urgency or getting things fixed, I would imagine their time frame of releasing next week is pretty on-track.
