the purpose of the thread was to see if the high standard that had come before could be maintained... its the "salted" members who achieve that...

if they don't this forum will get worse and worse...

And thats the point most people are lazy

I am really lazy, I don't want more rules

I see a problem but have not responded to the poll because i am lazy and don't like polls.

purely because it graced the bottom of the page

the poll is irrelevant, everyone can see in the forum that most new people either don't heed (or read) the advice given in the "read me again!" and "Searching Topics" note threads

the only way to avoid every single new member spamming and repeat threading ad infinitum is to have a basic system that requires some sort of tenure prior to thread creation

i like the bio link idea

new full mods would be good too ..... but who wants the job?.... I don't!

scoobless shirking the responsibility once again 😛

lol
i say the more responsible/good (yea, you heard me. lol) should all be mods. In shifts though, maybe? Then pass on the task to another whom they find capable at like, the end of the week or something? And maybe we could have two or three mini-mods at a time? I think that would work. What do y'all say?

maybe, though maybe needs a bit of consistency... maybe having two at a time, then one goes, but the first guy stays to help the new one, then by the time the first guy goes the other guy will know whats happening...

I see there is some problem interpetring the poll. This of course is entirely my fault. When I made this thread I was actually expecting to at least recieve a warning and see it immediatley shut down. Unforutenetly because of this I made the poll to resemble an actual versus thread.

Either way, I don't see the people who voted for the "senior" members as beleiving that there isn't a problem. Rather, I beleive, they see a problem that is fixable and KMC Forums will indeed remain enjoyable to them.

Also, seeing as how this thread has received over 6000 views, i'd say some people haven't even voted (myself included)

~wickerman~

I didn't vote either.
MERC' was just trying to not get it banned by Paola, which, going by the rules, she should have.
So obviously, she understands its a problem.

I'm digging the "Add pics and bios" idea a lot.

Wick, you've done it already(I think), and it actually helped me judge who would win.
Good going.

That won't solve the problem, but it'll help.
How about everyone try to keep pushing the idea??

No posts unless you prive adequate info and pics of each character.(to an extent)

a must... has to be...

Paul(don't like callin ya pr, cuz it looks like im purring at you😄), check out Wicks post, how informative and kinda.....professional that was.

ive read all his posts in here... are those the ones your talkin about?

No, he has been making all his "VS" threads with bios and pics.

And it was very helpful.

well, not ALL 😛 . Anyway, i don't always post bios as in copy/paste from Marvel or marveldirectory. Sometimes i just basically make a resume of said characters. And i tried to make threads of less known personnas, such as New Sun, Morph, Exodus (not really unknown but heheh), Iron Fist, Vargas, etc. Most new people won't know who they are so that's why i made the short bios.

But it's always nice to be appreciated. Thanks Longpig 😄 👆

ah... very good... but new sun? honestly?

That, my friend, will work........
Imagine how it'd be.

People stop making obvious threads, because they find out who the characters are now.
And people will not be able to make a ton of threads very fast, and as lazy as some are, they'd just not make it.

PLUS. everyone else gets to learn more about a character they aren't familiar with.
Everyone wins.

yeah... but it would have to be a rule, not a suggestion...

See, i dunno about that. Cause while i have nothing against that, it might get some overly "independent" angsty teens to start complaining about too many rules.

yeah, but if we only ask then what incentive is there for them to do it? maybe a reward of some sort?

Throughout history it's been proven that the incentives that are MOST powerful are those that derive from fear. 👆
