Forgive the silly question but what does LoB mean by that?
Like allowing Anime in the Versus forum?

Yeah, it would mean allowing characters from every type of fictional medium(ie. comics, games, manga, anime, movies, etc. etc.) in the CBvF.
We tried it here years ago. It failed miserably. Those types of battles need to be in their own forum.

Ah okay thanks Galan, that wouldn't be good at all. That would drag the quality down of the VS Forum terribly in my opinion.
It's so good as it is.

Only because of excessive trolling. Meh maybe if mods had permaban options

Well, the Foreign Cinema forum has it covered. A simple name change should do it.

There's a lot this forum needs, and Raz isn't reliable enough to actually have them get done.

MWHAHAHAHA!
Gender: Male Location: Planning to take over the WORLD!
there are some pretty solid ideas in this thread so far. co-admins would be nice--more people to keep an eye on things. i still enjoy the kmc, even after all this time. some cool people round here, some fun discussions. for my part, (since i tend to be a wee bit old fashioned at times) the things i'd like to see improved are quite simple and revolve around threads and in-thread discussions. no one can keep out ALL flaming, but it seems to me some preventative measures can be taken. quicker temp bans for off-topic/derailing of threads is something i would love to see. frankly, i'm really REALLY tired of so many threads degenerating into tired old arguments about the same topics--how many threads turn into hulk vs, or superman vs, or thanos vs when....none of them are even IN the thread?? less off-topic nonsense will lead to better discussion.
repeat threads are another issue. damn people--use search. google the threads if you're unsure. threads that don't have VS in the title also seem to be coming up more and more, when, in the past, that was almost NEVER the case. maybe some streamlining would help with that, but for now it is still the VS forum...so make appropriate threads.
lastly, use ignore. seriously. so many of the same arguments involving the same people, over and over. it gets enormously tiresome seeing the same drivel posted over and over.
so, yeah. tighter reins all around, on both thread topics and in-thread behaviour. i know there are only a couple guys on look out, and most don't like to report (myself included) but maybe some deputy mods or something to help keep things...more civil would help eliminate some of the tired behaviour that continues to pop up in soooo many threads....
oh, and more cool techy things like galan and others were talking about would be awesome too.

Prolly not. The whole thing was predicated on Raz making Ushgarak a co-admin, which he said would happen when he reappeared recently. But he's back MIA, and nothing meaningful happens without that first step. If it ever does, most of these ideas are on the table. Until then, though, we're all just jerking each other off.

Seems like Raz has been away for 9 days now. Hope he isn't gone again.

What the hell is his problem? How much time does it actually take to do these things? I'm starting to think he's just trolling the forum.

Who do you think taught me my trolling skills?
We haven't even seen his final form.

When that day comes, I fear you and Bran combined may not be enough to stop him.
