There will be spammers no matter what, NintendoPie. What Im saying is, it would encourage people to not post little one liners, or spam comments in voting threads trying to get points. Etc. That, and Im selfish and want the prediction league back.

(Here is one thing that always happens to me, when I try to delete space I get these stupid box things. >_> )

Would be even better if posts from offtopic threads werent added to postcount. Anti-spam measures is what this site needs. Its cluttered.

Changing it back to vg$ and having the prediction league put back in place would make me a happy man.

Then what you would be getting in posts would not be spam, it would be filler. Filler is just as bad as spam as it has no worth, either.

Why can't you just have the prediction league and not the VG$?

Use the HTML mode and delete all tags with "p" and "br" after your image and it should work.
Or if there's anything else you can delete that too.

Is that better? I just decided to take the picture off.

No give me all your money and it's perfect.

Seriously though don't feel as if I've threaten you to turn the picture down.

I don't feel that way.

It just wasn't work out well with me... even with your advise.



No 'Like' button but a way of voting up and down comments is nice. No need to have it actually do anything beyond showing a nice tally of up and down votes. But its better than having to quote someone just to say wow you were funny or I agree etc. Might cut down on meaningless posts.

I'd like to see a more streamlined profile. Right now its large and cumbersome.

I like the sub-forums over tagging, but we do have too many right now. We used to have about 8 or so and it was perfect.

It would be nice to have the column sorting feature actually work.

Other than that, I think I am good with the rest of the gamrConnect stuff. Please don't remove personal gaming libraries/wishlists etc or many of the other basic items like games playing.

The like button has a bit of a bad reputation. As long as we don't act upon it, it's fine. There definitely should not be a dislike button, and we wouldn't be sorting by number of likes or anything; it's just a way for the poster to know that their post has been appreciated. Here's a forum that uses it very nicely: http://asoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/topic/63913-abbreviation-translation-for-n00bs/ (there could be some Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones spoilers in there). Anybody like that idea as it stands?

That would go for Gamewise Forums as well.

I've seen it used in plenty of forums. Warez forums often have a "thank you" button for people who've provided good download links in a certain post, and that could certainly be applied here without much fuss.

Pie, we used the vg$ to bet on sales.

Thats why we need it back. It adds a little more to the prediction. You have something on the line.



                            

Wouldn't matter to most, but I would love a return of the old timestamps, which had the exact time of the post instead of "X minutes/hours/days ago".



Im not saying turn points into vg$.

Im saying, get rid of points all together.

I wish you would've quoted me. >_<

What's the difference then if we bet on our gamrPoints?



Also bring back "this post was edited on...." back whenever someone edits a post. Various members have been abusing the system by stealth editing past posts and then claiming that the edited post was the original post.
