[Kerry]

[DrunkerThanMoses]

[Kerry]

you gained one?

In here yes

Not in chat anymore :shocked:

[Vicky.]

Chat and games doesnt count anymore I dont think.

To try and stop the spamming we have been getting.

I only post in here really :bawling:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

thanks for the information Vicky

[Kerry]

There goes my 10k :(

[Ross]

By taking it away, instead of just punishing the individuals they punish the whole of the posters in Chat & Games. Great move, way to get people to stay on the site. Jackasses.

[Vicky.]

thanks for the information Vicky

No problem :)

Chat and Games didnt used to count towards post count anyway...and sorry about the loss of your 10k jaye :(

[James]

...I was just about to post about this. I've taken off the post-count increases in the Chat and Games forum.

The reason for this is that it is very easy to rack up big post-count increases by posting in word games and the like, and sometimes people just post stuff to get a quick increase. Trouble is that it can result in not very interesting posts being made for the forum community.

We had this on the old forum also, so it is just going back to that.

Daft as it sounds it's another notch to make me go too. I know thats petty but so what

[Patrick]

But thats abit cruel to the people who dont post in those stupid word games you know?

That way were all going to have to wait until summer to post in the BB11 Section to get up another 1000 posts.

[James]

I might reconsider it for certain threads then. I dunno.

[Kerry]

Put games threads seperate. Surely chats fine to add to the count :conf:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Tbh I dont think anyone plays them word games anymore.

[Kerry]

plus people will just spam elsewhere....

[Patrick]

This.

Yeah, maybe just put it on for Word Assosiation etc

[Jords]

Now this is very ridiculous!

[Kerry]

No problem :)

No worries. Just didn't want to always look the newbie :D

Exactly my point. Alot of people post in Chat & Games because it's the only place they post. Not for postcount or just post spam. I agree alot of spam threads and posts are made, but surely take away their posting priviledges in that forum not punish every single member who posts in there. I've tried explaining this to James but he just chooses to ignore what I have to say, when I'm clearly right. It's pathetic to be honest and I know there was no post count in Chat & Games on the old forum, but still alot of new members are used to Chat & Games with posts. It's stupid and you realise people will post elsewhere and spam, you can't even moderator threads to best of your ability let alone manage the whole forum now, waiting for spam threads to crop out.

This forum is an absolute disgrace as of late and you are ruining it by the day, James with your stupid decisions.

[Callum]

Why's mine stopped going up :conf:

Hello! Who are you? Never seen you on these forums before!

But in answer to your question, I don't know sorry.

[Jords]

I agree with you Ross, cant actually believe they are being so childish by stopping post counts in the chat & game section, post counts arnt that big of a deal but theyre quite fun to keep track of and sure this is gonna cause spam in other sections now.

Roll on more blue waffle tbh.

I don't know James but I'm sure he's just trying to do his best alongside the mods. This forums gone a bit mental in the absence of seemingly nothing else to talk about but blue bits and bobs and wotnot....

I do believe people will just spam elsewhere though to build postcount and the trouble will just be tenfold. I'd say remove it from games perhaps but not all but thats for the judgement of the admin/mods. Wordgames for instance

Jaye you are new, it's understandable. This is a bad decision by James, very poor thinking. You will realise in time he makes stupid decisions, but oh god don't try telling him that he just ignores you because James is alwaysssssss right. :bored:

I do believe he did it for the better of the forum but I think he just didn't think and went down the worst possible route he could have. This isn't going to help the forum like I have said people will post elsehwere and what do you get more spamming and members breaking rules

[Kerry]

I hope it's reconsidered. People are dropping like flies as it is. More negative moves will only add to it

[Ross]

I think threads like The Cabin, Brotherhood, Lounge etc. Post counts should be stopped, but some people do make interesting threads in Chat and Games worthy of a clever reply. I don't think it's fair to take it away from everyone. Hey, if I could... I'd have mine never to increase in Chat and Games again if it means everyone elses increase. I'm not bothered if my posts don't go out, I have a nice ammount of posts for the time I've been here. I'm just thinking of everyone else here.

[Kerry]

I'd say just put it back as it was.

I joined when we had the old forum and my post count went up in chat and games!

[Jessica.]

Curious!

[Kerry]

How about warning people if they spam deliberatly? Isn't spamming in the rules as a no no?

[Jords]

They shut my thread, I eat my words they do close some threads for no reason, I was voicing my opinion on this stupid matter.

[Jessica.]

It is Jaye. Some of the mods have their own filthy biased rules though :bored:

Then the person should be 'punished'. Not the whole board

[Jessica.]

Some mods are terribly biased though.

[Jessica.]

How long before this thread is closed?

[Jords]

:mad:

They should delete the persons posts. That would make their post count go down and solve the problem.

[GypsyGoth]

The mods probably just want chat about it here, in this one thread.

[Vicky.]

Well...I didnt close it but i would imagine it was closed because its the same as this thread...

[King Gizzard]

think its back

in the BH at least

[Kerry]

How long before this thread is closed?

I hope not. It was a valid question and James said he was going to raise the issue anyway

[Patrick]

Imagine how wonderful it would be if Mark asked me to be a mod :)

[Kerry]

Yes, that would work.

[Jessica.]

Yes, that would work.

It isn't fair on members who post innocently and are good members.
