Game Versus Rule Change?

In the Game Vs. Forum there is a rule that dictates that the character has to originate from a game..

I think that is preposterous, at least make it so only one of the characters has to originate. The idea you can't have something like "JC Denton Vs. Neo" just because Neo was in other things before video games just seems stupid.

That is kinda dumb, but there's always the chance of some Dumbass starting a bunch of "Barbie vs Samus lol omg" threads.

The rule's in place for a reason, and it's not changing. People abused the hell out of it before I made it that.

I've never even seen you post in the VG Vs., for that matter.

Then you would have idiots all over this thread posting stuff like

"Goku vs. James Bond" or "the yellow teletuby vs. Goofy" 😬

Some people do something awrong so punish everyone BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 😈 😈

I should tell this to Batman.

"Batman, the majority of Gotham city is bad so kill them all, BAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHA, even the good" 2guns2guns
DIE!!!! youpiyoupiyoupiyoupi

Yes, I am over reacting and very bored but you get the point 😐

People still did that, all the time.

Deal with it, it's not changing.

Why can't it be altered to allow characters that have appeared in video games regardless of origination?

Because that's how it used to be. And people would use it to make matches with any characters they could think of, while putting in one character than had been in a game.

Sorry, but no. Lenient rules were abused. VG Vs rules are no more strict than those of the Comic Book or Star Wars Vs.

Maybe we should have a dumbass vs. forum. Where people could have all their favourite match ups like "A toaster versus Galactus", "Diablo vs. R2-D2" and an all time favourite "Batman with prep versus anything" (

Spoiler:
Batman takes it

I think you people have missed my point. I don't want the rules loosened to the extent of people being able to post a Vs. battle of 2 characters that are only barely affiliated with video games. Just that if they are major video game characters as well as novel, film or TV characters they can still be considered. At least make it so only 1 character has to come directly from a video game and the other can originate from another medium but still has to be a major character in a video game. The ruling will obviously still go under moderator discretion but at the same time it's loose enough to make a thread like "JC Denton Vs Neo" which I think is a reasonable idea for a thread.

That is what the rule used to be; at least one character had to have originated in a game.

And people abused the hell out of it, hence it having to have been changed.

And, as I said, it will not be changing back.

Is that not what a moderator is for? Stopping people who abuse the rules of the forum?

Just because some people abuse a rule, doesn't mean you should stop everyone else from making threads that are reasonable just because you can't be bothered moderating the forum.

Bah, I give up. No one gives a shit; it is KMC so no one will have a say. There is a better chance of the Devil joining the forums than people changing there minds.

With that said. Let's all get cake and sing a wonderful song lol. Lalalalalalalalala

When I'm closing 10+ threads a day - which I was doing in the last couple weeks before I changed the rules - it starts to get a bit ridiculous.

It's not up for discussion. It's not changing.

I'm going to bed now. Just so you know though, I'm not trying to get at you Lana. I just don't think that everyone who wants to make a thread in the forum should be restricted so much just because a few morons decide to **** about. I don't really post in the Vs. thread enough to care but Deus Ex is totally one of my favourite games and I'd like to see JCD kick Neo's whiny little Matrix arse.

It was much more than a few people, and as I said - I was having to close 10+ threads a day for a while, and had many people complaining and asking for something to be done about it.

Most of the posters in there were quite pleased with the rules change. And, as I've said before - VG Vs rules are no more stricter than those of the other Vs forums, and are still quite a bit more lenient in some cases.

I'm sorry, but it's already been proven in there that I give an inch, people take a mile. And I'm not putting up with the sort of stuff that people attempted to get away with before because of the loose rules.

Maybe just allow Spoony to make his one thread. 😐

I wouldn't say MOST, Lana. After all, you ARE getting pstered all the time by people wanting to know about the "Vs. everything" section Raz is supposed to be considering.

Erm, I wouldn't say two or three people asking about it once a month is being constantly pestered.

Nor will pestering me about that actually accomplish anything ermm
