    My first thought was to ask who nominated me, but I probably should not.

    ...I was going to say to my fellow mods that we should probably not talk about this openly, but...well, I ain't stuffin' that cat back in the bag, that's fer sure.

    As for Forzare, I can't quite tell what made you seem like Everest, except that I might have once upon a time confused you and and Everest back on the TVTF.

    I guess I kinda started it, what with the "" post, though that was mostly a joke and I didn't expect to actually be told I was considered.

    I like to think that I've matured since I was posting regularly on TVT. :<

     Also yeah, sorry for the derail.

    Also, I think we're gonna need a new rules thread at this rate.

    Well, I was thinking of revising them anyway.  It did look like a large disorganized bunch of information.  Condensing it would be nice.

    Yeah, something less... wall of text-y would probably be better.

    Something that gets the point across clearly, but briefly.

    The OP is over a thousand words.  That seems excessive, somehow.

    It used to be less then got gradually filled with extra clarifications and such.

    Yeah, it kind of reads like that too.

    It feels like it needs to be condensed.
  • Central AvenueCentral Avenue
    Perhaps it would be a good idea to have separate Rules and Announcements threads.

    A rules thread would ideally have just the rules themselves and maybe one or two replies clarifying them, but an announcements thread seems (to me, at least) to invite discussion of the announcements, intentionally or otherwise.

    I like that idea.

    Jesus, guys.

    Someone nominate me as a mod so I don't sound jealous when I say it isn't that big a deal.

    It isn't that big a deal, guys. Let's cool it with the flattery; it's clogging up the thread.

    @Gelzo, I revoke my nominations

    I have two questions.

    When you decided who were going to be the new mods, did you ask them first or just moved them to the mods role?

    And,when someone is banned,can they still see the forum and the new messages?
  • MillerCrossMillerCross
    You can change. You can.
    Seeing as they didn't know if Ninjaclown would be a mod, even though he was accepted as one via voting, I have to say that yeah, they asked them first.
  • glennmagusharveyglennmagusharvey
    Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human
    Fun fact: INUH and funnyguts were asked first, Everest and Cygan just had it dropped on them (in a bit of procedural fail on our part), and IanExMachina and ninjaclown were also asked first.

    As for banned people, yes, they can still see the forum.  They just can't post.

    ^^ And they can't comment on their profile pages, and they can't comment on others' profile pages, and they can't read PMs, etc.

    ^ I'm working on a new rules post that cleans up what we currently have, by consolidating a lot of stuff by relevance and reducing the bulk of our current ruleset.  Also updating some things.

    I'm unpinning this thread because the new thread has been launched.
  • GelzoGelzo

    I think it's pretty silly that you just linked to the ban "map" instead of copypasting it.
  • Central AvenueCentral Avenue
    I had the same thought but I figured he must have done it for a reason.
  • NovaNova
    If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    Added an IJAM category.

    I would still suggest to my fellow Ijbmers to still use the IJAM prefix in titles, since not everyone reads the categories and may lead to confusion
