Jeez, I don't know about this. At the risk of being ridiculed and taken the crap out of, I'll do it anyway.

The Suggestion Box -

A place where you write what you want on this forum. I would absolutely love a spam forum - a forum where people spam, but it doesn't add to the post count.

It's called "other forums on other websites"... there are plenty to choose from that are full of such guff, feel free to post there and guess what: CJ has already implemented it such that such posts won't add to your post counts here.

But you forget, this is a forum for adventure game discussion and developers, rather than those who suffer ADHD. Also, there is bandwidth to think about. So basically, no. Your suggestion box has been burnt, thrown off a cliff and shat on by twenty seven lesbian seaguls. Sorry :o

I'm going to make the obvious joke, and suggest:

Quote from: Andail
Vintage:Stop making new threads. If you find, after extensive researching, that there exist absolutely no threads which suit your abnormal posting needs, at least put some thought into the ones you start.

Also, I suggest you get your own forums, or a blog, or something. It's not hard, you can get them for free, and you can post on it about whatever you want, whenever you want, without people repeatedly telling you to knock it off. Link to it in your sig, and anyone here who's interested can still read your posts, while everyone else won't be troubled by them.

Oh, and also also:

God, no. That's just a hideous idea. General Discussion is bad enough at times, why would you want to encourage that?

Eigen · Mon 19/02/2007 14:00:51

Also it would be a good idea to make Vintage moderator in that forum, so we can be absolutely sure that nothing but spam gets posted there.

Akatosh · Mon 19/02/2007 16:04:44

My suggestion? Users can only start one new thread a week

Mr Jake · Mon 19/02/2007 16:08:18

Mine? Start enforcing the age restriction.

Akatosh · Mon 19/02/2007 16:12:18

I probably shouldn't be telling you this, Vintage... but there is a forum on the internet which features a "Ring of Flame" subsection. You'd probably like to go there...

http://forums.kingdomofloathing.com/viewforum.php?f=23&sid=b11dd55220ae55ebde3d37ea0cc5d495

It doesn't even have moderators. Not a single one. And the global admin doesn't give a f*** what happens in there. My suggestion: Register - that forum may fulfill your posting needs

Some thread names...

Idle Bullshit with RudeDog
The "I want to make topics" Topic
Hay guyz

Sounds great, 200 new threads every monday!

Akatosh · Mon 19/02/2007 16:44:33

Now you're just being jealous.

My suggestion:

Okay, let's do this one hypothetically. Let's say you have a member by the name of TerribleVenerealDisease. He posts a new thread four or five times a day at his peak, and around that time has (what was it, Nik, like eighteen or so?) posts in one day, and everyone puts up with it.... But then TerribleVenerealDisease gets told by a moderator to stop making new threads... But he openly flouts this several times in the course of a mere 48 hours... We have never, as far as I know, had to ban anyone from these forums. I don't want to see it start happening. However, I think a contingent of local AGSer's should be dispatched to his house to beat the hell out of him.

Not only did Andail tell you, but I quoted Andail, and now Ashen quoted Andail, and everyone has been telling you to stop... Before you post another post anywhere on this site, please answer me... Why? Why won't you stop?

I'm not sure if you even bothered reading the other thread or if you just did like so many other trolls and posted a new thread and then left it hanging, so I'll say it again, knowing full well you might not even bother to read it here: A community is about contribution. You aren't the most important member here. Not everyone wants to hear what you have to say. In fact, I'm pretty sure no one cares what you have to say. No one probably cares what anyone says, really. The whole reason any of us, besides you it seems, are here is to contribute to the adventure gaming community. See that thing in my sig? It's a game I'm working on. Where's yours?

If you're going to post something new every other day, at least let it contribute. Post an entry for a competition. Post a screenie or a character from this "Jacob's Ladder" game you're supposedly working on in C+C. Start working as long on your game as you are on posting in these forums and soon you'll be able to post a Game in Production thread.

Akatosh · Mon 19/02/2007 18:08:15

As much as I hate defending people, but he is kind-of working on that game. And it doesn't sound too bad at all. You should definitly get enough done to start a GiP thread... people tend to take you more serious, then. Also, you'll finally have something to post away about and no-one will object! Woohooo!

Nikolas · Mon 19/02/2007 18:27:44

Well...

I do remember the usual quote that nobody has quoted yet:

QuoteDon't feed the trolls.

There ya go. Let's just stop posting in his threads, unless they do have something. Keep telling him the same thing doesn't seem to work really...

How about lock this thread?
