Phew, ok!

I've been a bit busy with stuff at home, and at work. But I've finally got a nice, clear day to start using my powers to better the forums, one step at a time. Here is a checklist of nearly all the things I want to do with the responsibilities given to me by the administrators. I'll likely add onto it as I go, but for now this is what I want to accomplish:

Make a new signature guidelines thread. [x]
Help out with other forums specific needs. [x]
Settle the deal with Jenny and her accounts. [x]
Find a working RPG Hack to give points a more defined use. []
Give ideas and possibly help build the BattleForums D2 Mod. []
Advertise our forums as a certain type of social community.* []
Remove inactive moderators and instate determined ones. [x]
Inspire forum moderators to do things with their forums besides moderating them. []
Add some new smilies, gifts, and other misc. fun stuff. []
Create a new ruleset for The Asylum. []
Make a firm stance for all members of staff to respect each other and not be biased. []
Revamp/clean up the way the Infraction System works (remove ones that need to be expired, clear up misc. ones, etc). []
Remove the tournament info from profiles as they are not needed. [x]
Add/remove elders based on activity. [x]
Make an affirm thread in each Staff Forum urging/reminding moderators of those sections that not all is lost, aand that I'm here to work with them. [x]
Focus on the Gaming Forums for improvement and change. [x]

* I'm not sure what you guys are doing about this, but I think we need a direction for these forums before we can make any long-term and permanent changes to games, or fundamental changes period. Thoughts?

I'll start this by adding the Signature Guidelines later today.

I'm usually active as long as I'm not doing school work or spending time with Arielle. I might get a job soon, but that still wouldn't take up all my time. ._.

It'll take up a bit. Trust me!

Could an admin clarify how to change the tournament stuff in profiles?

You'd have to let me see them first...though I believe x42bn6 would likely decide if they go in finalized or not. You do moderate General though, so have at it.

The first rule of the Asylum: There is no Asylum.

I was just going to sticky a thread that said "Go ****ing nuts." I'd probably bypass the swear filter too.

While you are on an "omg help us!" rampage, what exactly is this "BF D2 mod"? I tried reading the thread and almost wanted to hang myself.

I assumed it had something to do with going back to 1.10, which is why I'm reinstalling as I post this message.

Not sure...we'll see.

It's a mod that Vadriel and the D2 Leaders are throwing ideas around for...they're going to learn how to mod then make a D2 Mod specifically for us.

Adding and removing elders today, and going to try and remove that Tourney thing from the profiles. '

Removed inactive moderators 2 days ago, added 1 new moderator.

Any one have any idea how to edit whats in peoples profiles globally? I really want to remove that damn tourney stuff.

I'm also going to discuss with the admins about a new Asylum Guidelines Thread...hopefully one that will be enforced.
