The forum is how it is because of people running away from the problem like you. Leaving the forum would help it how? The admins would only let it dwell deeper, try to bring the place up a bit, jackass. Other than posting spam trying to throw threads off-topic every time you hit that submit button.
That's what I think, anyway.

Make a list of improvements and then mayb....err wait this is grav isent it. Grav cant type out a serious list it would be more of a "Ban slaynish and then make me admin and then free ham for everyone!"......

Its stupid saying "Improve zelaron or I leave". We dont know what you want so why dont you all tell us.... Isent there some forum thread or something... go use that.

Do something about the chat forum. People take advantage of the ability to spam in there.

Do something about the moronic members that do nothing but annoy people when they don't even know they're doing it.

Do something about the stupid trolls that seem to have been coming one by one, which are now coming wave after wave.

Do something about the inactive mods.

Make bans more frequent as to show that Zelaron actually enforces the rules.

Reiteration: Fix up the damn rules of the Chat Forum, so not everyone thinks of it as the Spam Forum.

Mods need more responsibility:
- They need to set better examples.
- They need to be more strict.
- Maybe a rule should be that mods need to make at least 1 or so good, pertinent, stimulating threads a week in their forum to keep it interesting.
- Etc...

Also... how about we get on the appointing of mods better... if I'm not mistaken, the General Gaming Forum is still without a mod.

The problem isn't people spamming the chat forum its people spamming pretty much every other also i think a few new forums wouldn't hurt either and be carefull messing with the chat forum is like messing with the plumbing(if you break it everyone will shit somewhere else). Oh and ganga i think your point is one of these

you're a quoteophile

you desperately wanted to raise your post count

you wanted to show everyone that you agree with amazon

you thought it would be witty

Remove the shit about lion-o, panthor, and the other pointless shit, then ban the members that posted it.

Penguin
2003-08-24, 12:13 PM
You dont ban long term members. Banning someone for one or two spam posts is not worth the next 50 good posts he might make that month. Unless their spam is as much as their regular posting then I dont see why we should ban unless we have a meeting with them and then they still refuse. You ban too many people and people will complain that "The forum is dead" "No body ever posts". Not that many interesting things happen and we dont exactly have a lot of members to post a lot of interesting threads (yet?). There are two kinds of spam, The kind of spam that just says "F*** you" or 1 word posts those should be deleted, but posts that say "So hows your day? I went to the store and bought some milk... It was pretty fun" might be able to stay in the chat forum. Personally I would visit here a whole lot less if the amount of topics cut down by like 40%, I read spam and if its funny then It helps by making me wanna visit more. Gah, It depends on the spam.

Err I gotta go , .... Ill just stop in the middle of the post, i made half my point anyway.

Its not a matter of banning older, dedicated members, its a matter of enforcing the rules. If they get banned for 1-2 days for too much spamming, then they will cut it down a little when they get back, or else the ban will be longer next time. Spam is fine, but in moderation.

I agree with u and I got an idea, what if when u ban some1, u make a thread which says who's banned, reason and for how long so that's some kind of warning to other members so that they wont think of doing the same thing as the banned person.

Also maybe send a pm to all members again explaining problems about spamming and explain some rules.

If u have any troubles with spam in the chat forum then first of all look at this

Come on in and to your regular spamming and chatting. You can discuss anything here with the reason to keep the spam off the other forums. This forum might have a lot of completely useless or bizarre content, but that is a part of the fun.

this is description of the chat forum, obviously the fun part is gone for many ppl...so maybe change this a bit first, that could at least help vs new members

another thing u could do is make an important thread about rules in chat forum and explain that spamming is allowed TO A CERTAIN EXTEND and should not be the main point of a thread

It's a shame that if good members are leaving because those few others just fuck up everything

this is just my view on it and all I have to say (for now, maybe some more later) ;)

How about we make the Chat Forum--into a NON-POST COUNT GAIN area. Meaning, when you post in this part of the forum, you don't gain any post count.

Good idea, though I also like the idea of removing post counts entirely.

Honestly, after thinking about it for a mere few minutes, I think that totally taking out post count would deter a lot of people away and make this place die quicker than you realize. Just look at what happened to the WRT when it had post count taken out of it...

You are the stupidest fucking numb-nut I've ever seen in my fucking life. Shut up you little bitch ass faggot and don't ever make a retorical comment towards me again. I care more about post count than I do about your family and how I'm gonna collapse the foundation of your house around them with a million fucking bullets from my AK.

Post count means dick, but if getting rid of it means getting rid of you, I'm all for it. Faggot bitch. Kill yourself.

Yes, I am perfectly the fuck aware of where I am posting this. Sue me nigger.

Some ideas! Some action! Chruser are you listening?? I think the idea of not counting posts in this forum is a good one but it would mean more idiots like zaggon would just spam somewhere else. The no post counts period is a very interesting idea also. This is the first and only forum I have ever been on and I come here for information and to chat with people. IMHO what we need to do is just make a f***ing spam forum that doesnt count posts and change the rules for the chat forum to not be so liberal. I personally enjoy the threads like "Huge Pancake" and "What kind of cell phone do you use?" They stimulate conversations and can lead anywhere. But when someone posts dribble like this (see another zaggon gem below) it is a pointless waste of bandwidth.....
