Yeah, I've been looking into peoples suggestions.

>> Double posting is now premitted!

Members can double post in garbage forum only.
Regulars can double post where ever they want!

With this, our story continues in the rules topic (because I know very well that people are going to start abusing this)

Bob = bad newbie who doesn't listen to admins
Joe = good perfect member who is nice
Yoshi = me. big bad admin!
QUOTE
Bob: Can anyone help me with <blank>?
Bob: *Bump*
Bob: *Bump*
Joe: Geez, stop it. Heres how you do it <explaination>
Bob: Oh, that sounds cool.
(15 seconds later) Bob: Oh wait, that doesn't sound right.

Lesson: Yes, another multioffense here. Its usually nice to keep forums neat and clean. Double posting is restricted only to the Garbage forum (unless you got 300+ posts, which theres no restriction at all!). Bumping topics up is forbidden. Double posting is only encouraged when your other post is more than 3 hours old. Otherwise, please use EDIT instead!


Alright then. Hope you all like it wink.gif

>> Close poll, but topics continue.

You can request that a moderator or administrator close your poll, but the topic will remain open.

>> Users online today... its back!

Yes. Using less queries and hogging less CPU power than ever!

>> Edited by... 5 minutes

I've disabled removing the edited by... for admins

Now, whenever you make a post, and edit it in under 5 minutes, the edited by message will not show up. More than 5 minutes, it will.



Whats left to do?
Heres some things I'm still looking into that people have been asking for a long time (or not):
- Arcade Crowns in Profile instead of topic view (faster loading)
- MOTM
- Custom Emontions... the invision resource website just went down. You'll have to wait.



Regulars vs Members
Another common question, is, whats the difference between regulars and members?

Check it out in the updated Ranks Topic!

I don't likw double-posting. The only reason I can see is to remind people of a topic you REALLY need to have something posted in, that's buried under a dozen other topics, and you were the last to post in it...

"Now, whenever you make a post, and edit it in under 5 minutes, the edited by message will not show up. More than 5 minutes, it will."
WHY Yoshi, WHY?

Both of your arguements are invalid, just so you know.

Double Posting - Anyone can revive it regardless.
Edit - Wtf did you say?

Double posting is good... and bad im my opinion... Good for the members with legit things to say and post about it... bad for those who 1 line sentences and mini spam.

Yes I'm thinking about double posting like Rayne, good for certain reasons, but why can't people just edit their post if they have something to add.

Double posting is usually good, but can be abused. Beware of abuser-peoples!

@Rayne & Dark Templar: Thats why I only enabled it for regulars. When you're a regular, you're a bit more careful because you've been here so long and you're obviously serious with your account. Thus you wont do anything stupid.

I figured, just enable the double posting for everyone in the garbage forum. Because one of the main reasons people double post, is to get a higher post count when you're a newbie. It wont increment there wink.gif

In the Arcade, get rid of Mega Man, because I found a way to cheat to get the high score! I found this when it first came out! All one has to do is find a point where they are behind the enemy. Kill the enemy, they get where the enemy was off screen! The enemy regenerates! You can do this for hours without being noticed!

Also, RailLine pisses me off, because It says I cheat when I dont!!!

I'm updating it, because a stupid thing I'm trying to put in doesn't want to work (also the reason I got debug mode on)
