MY MEMORY IS THAT OF A SMALL GRAPE

My suggestions:

– Every time you post a dragin, flamebate doubles your post limit time.

– wordfilter dragcave to something lulzy like the swear words do when you’re logged out. Break links and such.

– purchaseable custom forums (klan subforums or something?)

– moderation rights to klan forum officers

Of course, nothing will help if the community is a brainless mbum of stupid people spamming dragons everywhere. Only you, the poster, can improve this place by not being a spamming moron.

The forum is dead because of the dragon stuff, by god I don’t know whats more stupid us letting them go on, or them actually doing it.

The only way for the forums to be good ironically is for us to have our own forums, so that we can set the rules and do the job ET won’t.

Definitely implement the option to purchase additional klan forums. Evil Trout already told me he’d work on it, but at a later point (“later” probably meaning when nobody cares anymore). Actually it might be an interesting idea not only to have klan forums, but also some kind of private forums. Imagine a forum you could only invite all cool people to without them having to buy another alt. Log in to see images!

As for Flamebate itself, I bumume it’s difficult to find the right balance between discouraging bad posts and not having too many rules. What about a different approach: Ever considered to give an E-Peen to people whose threads got moved to Full of Won? Or just think of another way to reward funny stuff.

A suggestion I don’t really like myself (but maybe it would be good-suited as some kind of temporary Flamebate Theme?): Posts with more than five FAIL votes become invisible. Log in to see images! FalCoN edited this message on 02/09/2009 8:53PM

since this is game discussion, my opinions on how to ‘fix’ it would likely come across as a troll to someone and i would

probably catch a ban for saying something someone else be would be allowed to say, so forget it.

For God’s sake, make Dragons a bannable offense.

Add something like 4chan’s /r9k/, where only complete literacy (And maybe even no reposts) are allowed.

Add an ignore feature, so you can ignore certain users.

Get rid of the clbum-specific role-playing boards.

Make some sort of Flezz-sink forum shop. You could buy basic things with your Flezz, like making your name different colors or something on the forums.

Add more forum-related things to buy with Brownie Points. Custom boards and the like.

And one thing, not really community-related, but make a Themebuildr, so that we can have different pretty themes every week to choose from.

Maybe I’m missing the point here. Most of the time draginz is the sign of bad threads, not the cause.

That’s actually not that bad of an idea. I never felt that that seperation made any sense, nor I felt that some threads were better placed in one particular forum than in another. Maybe it would be better to think of other subforums which are more theme-related… (like Whiny ****es for example).

No, it’s all cool when draginz are posted in bad threads, and some people get that, but a lot of people do it indiscriminately in good threads and it’s lame.

I generally like the clbum theme of the forums. In spite of the recent influx of draginz, the themes do often hold. For example, Mice Paced Ohm’s awesome “I am an artist” thread where he broke tables, spammed huge quotes and generally showed off his forum hacking skillz.

also wow i have no male reproductive organ

So what’s the difference between spamming draginz and spamming, “fine upstanding member of society” for example.

I don’t see a problem with it. In fact we need those draginz to be easily accessible from the emoticon panel Log in to see images!

Great! Sell fwz web browsers in a store or kyoubai that change the theme and stuff.

Sig, I’m sure you can say stuff without directly insulting and trolling people.

I do think the idea that, for a mbumive amount of flezz (~20 million), a player be allowed to buy a forum and moderate it/annoint others to moderate it, with whatever rules he or she wants (subject to certain overarching rules like “nothing that will get ET into legal trouble” ) would be a good idea.

Not only would it be a flezz sink, but it would let people who get really, really bumhurt about dragons to have a free place to play. Possibly, to be a more effective flezz sink, these forums would disappear if the someone doesn’t pay, say, a couple million flezz a month or so, just so we don’t get thousands of these things.

Additionally, an “ignore user” feature would be really nice to have.

Posting personal information is fun. Everyone should try it at least once.

One Clear Suggestion would be to moderate RP forums better, like banning hackers, emo kids, and camwhores that are trolling with troll tactics, if you are going to RP you should RP your clbum.
