Or at least a few more moderators here when the others are not online, and at least another superuser would be nice. While Bjarne is away, the other superuser would be able to hold the place down, and keep things in order.
That’s how things are in GFAQs.
There are two admins and few 'lead moderators' who have some admin powers.
And it would help. A lot.

I think we need moar strict rules around here.
Do you use IP bans?
If they post as a guest we can ban their IP, though most users we have to use that on simply use a proxy or something.
Can we make it so that proxies cannot access this website? >.>
No, idea. lol. Probably not, though, with the way they work and all.
Well, here’s my solution.
1. Encourage all current non-trolling guests to make their own accounts at this website.
2. From then on, make it so that guests can no longer post.
AM I DOING DIS RITE?
Apparently, I cannot log into my account in GameFAQs while I’m using a proxy and GFAQs do not let you post as a guest, so... Yeah.
That idea was brought up before as well but I cannot remember how it concluded...=/
Regardless, there IS a more pressing matter of these PM’s at hand than that.
Do we need PMs?
-sighs- It’s a nice thing to have? Every forum site I have seen has some sort of a PM system after all.
Emails. People need to use Emails.
Yeah, how many people do you think would trust others with their e-mail? ESPECIALLY when it is public. Before the PM system I shared my e-mail with a friend of mine, and not even a few days later I was flooded with spam from another user having registered me on dozens of sites.
Seriously, the PM system is not the problem. To answer your first question, technically yes we need PM’s or else everything is ridiculously public.
That’s why people have more than one email account. >.>
I have 10.
lol, I think people who come to a forum site are going to expect a PM system just like virtually every other forum site has. It cuts down A LOT of hassle on the user’s end.
But, you know what, whatever then. Mail your suggestion to Bjarne and see how far it flies, I don’t give two shits anymore. I think it’s ridiculous, but what the fuck do I know, eh?
lol
You guys DO know this was originally intended to get BJARNE’S attention to implement a few things, not for everyone to try and get dibs on their own suggestions being placed in top priority.

GFAQs don’t have PM capabilities and people are quite happy without them. There are actually no problems in those boards.

For a mod, you sound quite... Irresponsible.
As for your third paragraph... Rude.
Great for gamefaqs, but we have it now. What do you think will happen if it’s just turned off?
The second paragraph was an example of the types of responses you will get. I don’t give a shit if I sound “irresponsible” or “rude” because I have my opinion and a right to express it just like everyone else.
Oh, and the third paragraph was more of a simple statement. The only thing this was meant to do was to get Bjarne’s attention to implement several important options, not to turn off the PM system or delve into other possible reasons of how it’s going wrong, just that.
You can make all the suggestions you like. The fact of the matter is, Bjarne actually has a social life. This forum is more of a hobby than a bonefide die hard interest. He is involved with many other projects including this, so it is unreasonable to expect him to drop everything at a mommnets notice.
I have always found the best way to get Bjarne to think about something or to enact action from him for this site is to send him a couteous e-mail outlining the problem, your concerns and provide as much simplicity and info as possible. He’s a busy man, make it easier for him and things happen.
I’m no expert in programing language, but such things take time. He might not have that time to enact a ban through PM featre at the momment.
Not to mention that he seldom comes here on a daily basis let alone checks the threads. Hell I am a moderator on here and even I don’t have the time to check all the threads.
E-mail is the most direct and sure way of reaching him in case of emergancy. Its always worked out well for me anyhow.
I sugesst that you all E-mail him wih your concerns and be nice about it and something should happen from it.

I’ve contacted Bjarne through e-mail and PM about this issue multiple times. Back when I was a moderator still. Hell, back when I was still the newb mod on the team.
It never really did any good. I thought that making a thread and forcing Ty at knife point to sticky it would be a good alternative to nothing.

And yes, freedom of speech for everyone. But I thought mods wouldn’t lose their temper so quickly.

Marly, the PM system has been a godsend. Somethings people don’t want to be on the public forum so they use the PM system, where it can be kept private. It was a great idea and if it were ever taken away, yeah, there’d be catastrophe. It’s way too useful to take away. Besides, adding a ban button to the top of a PM couldn’t be that difficult, we used to use a little cheat to do it anyways. So we know there’s a script for it in the system. Bjarne only has to create a linked button to said script.

People will be pissy, some will leave. Nobody complained of the addition of such a thing, and now that it’s a part of the site, do you really think they’ll just look at it and think “hey you know what, this is better” right away?
You’re basing it off Gamefaqs, which I am assuming never had a PM system. For the longest while this place didn’t and everyone was fine. Then it was implemented and it’s still fine. It’s the fact that it doesn’t revert smoothly at all that is a problem. Nobody else sees a problem with the system itself, why completely get rid of it?

Yes, PM system can be either improved or be totally scrapped. Whichever is better for all of us, I guess.

My, you put a lot of effort typing all that.
Sending prons through PM is the major problem at this point, mah boi. Unless we can improve it, pron will continue. (Unless people like the prons and choose not to report them)
And I’ll completely disregard your last paragraph since it was my mistake to consider you as a stereotypical mod in the first place. I apologize if it hurt your feelings or whatsoever.

This is actually quite easy for me to type out. Little effort upon my part is used to type it.
That is the point of being able to ban through PM’s. Public posts use a report system and we ban accordingly; that would be putting PM’s on the same level and still keeping them private.

Well, good for you.
It’s too bad PMs cannot be deleted without reading it beforehand.

Cid mentioned that in his first post here. They have a select post box where we can multi-delete posts. That option would be nice for threads but better for PM’s.

It’s the fact that it doesn’t revert smoothly at all that is a problem. Nobody else sees a problem with the system itself, why completely get rid of it?
I am me, not just a mod. If you’re going to assume that all moderators act the same way I do, you had better stop. I partially work on a different level then the rest do anyways. Unprofessional, kind of like a bounty hunter type of thing. I follow the rules, I do my job how I see it, and that’s that. If you’re going to comment about my anger issues, make sure it’s definitely noted that it’s MY anger issues.
My, you put a lot of effort typing all that.
Sending prons through PM is the major problem at this point, mah boi. Unless we can improve it, pron will continue. (Unless people like the prons and choose not to report them)
And I’ll completely disregard your last paragraph since it was my mistake to consider you as a stereotypical mod in the first place. I apologize if it hurt your feelings or whatsoever.
This is actually quite easy for me to type out. Little effort upon my part is used to type it.
That is the point of being able to ban through PM’s. Public posts use a report system and we ban accordingly; that would be putting PM’s on the same level and still keeping them private.
Well, good for you.
It’s too bad PMs cannot be deleted without reading it beforehand.
Cid mentioned that in his first post here. They have a select post box where we can multi-delete posts. That option would be nice for threads but better for PM’s.
Funny how all other forums have it and this forum doesn’t, no?
