Re: R.I.P. Battleforums.

All I ever really cared about was flaming, and that was so we wouldn't scare off newbies (in terms of moderation). But signature images? Lol.

The only person I think that ever gave a **** about Signature image rules was Lwek. He once sig banned a guy just because his signature image was 1 pixel too wide! That was a great thread in staff too. There would be posts 50 lines long with him just saying waste.

But just to be fair, it would be wise to come up a solution so we can bury this dumb issue.

Re: R.I.P. Battleforums.

How bout I don't. I rather try to find a way to cause less damage and not quit.

Oh and did you consider what would happen if I did and I got replaced? What isn't going to stop the next person from repeating the errors that you or the admins before us or I in this scenario have caused?

The next person in line from our remaining staff is Vadriel. Just think about how things would run if HE was in charge. If you can that is...

Eric, if you really don't like how chris and Donny run things, the door is right over there.

Don't let it hit your arse on your way out.

Here are solutions: We either enforce them asnd start sigbanning or force changing, we think of a reasonable new set of limits that benefit everyone, or something else. I do not want bans to be issued as much as the others do either, and I want to do a solution that everyone can be happy with.
The way i do it is leave it up to the member. The guide line we have are just suggestions of a good size. Image size i dont mind but if it is a ****ing movie or its 1000000000x10000000 then remove and warn.

Re: R.I.P. Battleforums.

Now that you say it that way. Its a reasonable argument.

Alright. Because this is getting retarded and the fact this problem is trivial compared to flaming, we will leave the sigs the way they are. People's connections have evolved to a point where hardly anyone uses 56k modems anymore. If a person had a 56k, even loading the home page is difficult, and the person can easily disable image uploading.

However, if a person does something retarded like something close to 640x480 sig or something too wide or what we feel is too high, or its like a movie in size. Then we will enforce the rules against it. No questions asked.

Our main focus right now in enforcement will be controlling Chit Chat from trolling and flaming. All people should take into consideration how each mod does it, especailly when dealing with Vadriel.

Agreed?

Take your own advice. I'm the first to call Eric a douche bag, but I like him 100x more than you. Not to mention you've been told the same thing and yet here you are.

Re: R.I.P. Battleforums.

Yeah like how he was never coming back and was going to make a forum to steal all of BF's members. I think he's almost got as many "I'm leaving" threads as Jason.

Re: R.I.P. Battleforums.

At one point. But like Mystic Sorcerer, a piece of him kept calling him back to Battleforums.com.

He only came back mostly because the forum he was at was destroyed.

Re: R.I.P. Battleforums.

You would have to ask Clearcast about that. There were a few issues that caused TTT to fall.

Re: R.I.P. Battleforums.

The way I saw TTT, was like how Roach or the other staff at the time did. It was a revenge board to rival us.

Re: R.I.P. Battleforums.

Actually, for the most part... Everything I touch turns to gold. I'm hoping that the D&D section will be the same sort of success TPM was before it got destroyed and Battleforums lost the server.
