Title: Restoration of Bash Pit and Karma
Post by: jrgp on August 19, 2011, 04:55:51 pm
Hello,

As I'm sure you've noticed, the Bash Pit is back. Refer to the sticky for rules.

Karma is also back. You can only vote up/down once every 72 hours. People who outright ask to be smitten/applauded will have their custom avatar/signature privileges revoked temporarily and, depending on the level of annoyance, temporarily muted. If someone's karma hits 150 in either direction, they may request a reset to 0.

Feedback is welcome.

So why you have banned foxconn? He was doing the same all the time.

In the wrong areas. If foxxy came back and just posted here it'd be smashing.

More like breathing some death into the place.  There's good activity and there's bad activity, and this is the latter.  If the forums turned into 4chan, would it be okay because "at least it's alive"? Of course not.  What if we started talking about nothing but anime? Would it still be okay? No, it wouldn't, and you know it wouldn't.

If anything, the Bash Pit has value only in that it pulls the miscreants away from the Lounge (ideally quarantining them there).  However, saying that it's good for the forum because it promotes "activity" is just a bunch of BS.

Yeah well where are you helping out? Go create some interesting topics in the lounge or something seeing as you ignore every OTHER board on this forum.

A while back I posted a list of 15 different topics for good, solid discussion.  Nothing ever came of it, though I suppose I could give that another shot.  Regardless, why do I have to do something right to know that the alternative is wrong? Furthermore, why should I be expected to post on threads about a game I no longer play?

You should consider somehow limiting karma to support boards only (aka Mapping help/resources, script discussion&help etc)

Then you don't need to care about the welfare of the boards.

I don't; not of those, anyway.  I care about the Lounge because that's where I hang out.

Yeah it was an interesting experiment and it answered a lot of questions the staff and other people had about the effect it'd have. That, and it was an item on the list mentioned here (http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?topic=41237.msg500521#msg500521). Karma's staying though, since that's neat.

See, aint this just beautiful? The character resembling human here actually has a nose to breath with, no stupid looking scars in her cheeks replacing the artistic effort and skill to reflect the feeling of embarrasment/cuteness or eyes covering half of her face.

I disagree, people have the right to love/hate you anonymously, this is internet the paradise of free-speech.
