I don't suppose it's possible to remove the limit only in certain forums (e.g. Respect Forum)?

Perhaps a Marvel or DC forums replacing the current Spider-Man/X-Men, Batman/Superman threads. I don't think those forums get a lot of traffic, and perhaps making it more generic would help increase that.

Also maybe an Indie Comic thread where people can go in and ask questions specifically about anything non DC/Marvel related. What's good, what's bad. Something to help the comic fan to expand their reading material should they desire it. 😛

I made that propsal a few times in the past, and again today.

What do you mean "I". sneer

That might be good, but not sure if it's possible.

The limit of images in a post should be increased.

I don't want you to leave the forum, but what must be done must be done.

I don't know what you mean. innocent

Pr is a ginger canadian, why does he have a say?

Because even if I was a ginger canadian, i'd still have more say than you.

Reported for blatant racism.

I'm thinking of modifying the rules to reflect some trolling happening here and in other forums. It seems people are purposely misinterpreting comics just to make their side win. Any ideas?

Lowballing and using PIS feats is already against the rules and the like so I don't know what you could do to further put an end to it.

It has become a sort of trend though for Poster A to say something Poster B doesn't like, so Poster B retaliates by trolling/lowballing the character involved in the thread or projecting a random argument to serve their own means. There's also the whole dismissing/warping on panel feats/narration that goes around.

I honestly don't know what could be done to change this outside of stricter warnings or temp bans, though.

LET MODS HAVE THE ABILITY TO EDIT THEIR POST PAST 15 minutes.

Heck, talk to Rex or whoever. Let them allow thread starters the ability to EDIT their posts in respect thread. This way they can keep threads in order, organized, and awesome looking. I don't want to see another revamped thread because the last one got cluster f(((ked in 2 months

If either Pr, Newjak or I get to be global it will change. biscuits

I've read through the suggestions from last year and most are still valid. I will request some of them again.

A few of you wanted the post edit time limit increased. I'm thinking of requesting that also. I'll ask for 30 minutes if Raz logs on again soon. I don't know how well that will go over.

The mods all want the forums streamlined. With old forums either merged or binned and new forums taking their place. I really would like to see a TV forum. It makes sense.

actually, if it were possible to allow creators of respect threads a sort of indefinite amount of time to edit their threads, that would be nice.

I'm a bit of a control freak, so even the ability to lock other people from posting in a respect thread would be something I'd like. I know for myself, or even more for people like K-M, there is a lot of work put into these threads. If we could treat them like a work in progress that continues to showcase a character, rather than a hodgepodge of replies (or even arguments) in the thread, or reposting feats in a disorganized manner, I'd be into that.

My 2 cents, not sure how others feel about it.

EDIT: the nitpicking of on panel text is problematic too, but I would have no idea how to deal with that as a rule, rather than on a case by case basis.

We brought that up. I'd like the thread starters to be able to manage things. People are lucky I can't mod the respect forums. I'd seriously go prehistoric on some of the people spamming and trolling!

This was the main thing that I wanted to bring up.

People being able to more or less spam respect-threads with impunity.

The VS forum is a place where I expect things to go down, but when people can't keep that hate away someone's respect threads (hard work) then it really pisses me off 😛

A lot of forums need to disappear.

Never give Newjack the mod title. biscuits
