-Weird quoting system

-It doesn't seems like mods can ban people based on their IP

and by the way...

does this support bbcode?

oh, it does

Maybe add and update attach ratios for each platform, possibly even on the front page? You could also break it down into 1st & 3rd party! If you really wanted to go to town you could have lifetime and recent(say 6 months back from the the present) attach ratios to show which platforms are currently likely to attract devs. For instance looking at PS2s hardware sold and overall attach ratios you would assume that it would be the premiere platform for development but a quick check of the last 6 months ratio would show it is clearly a system in decline.

All this of course is aimed at making it easier to establish which platform is offering the healthiest climate for developer support, a topic of constant debate and procrastination on the site.

Hope this helps.

So no-one likes my rating system???

I'll elaborate:

Everyone starts off with a certain rating (a la Germany post-hyper inflation, new currency, everyone restarted with the same amount of money - 500 marks, I believe), say, 1,000 (like gamedev).

Now basically, whenever someone makes a really good post (informative, entertaining, etc) members can rate people up (only in increments of 1, btw). And if a member makes a particually bad post (fanboyism, swearing, etc) they can be rated down (decrements of 1).

The user rating gets displayed somewhere below the usersname on every post. It can encourage people to only make good posts, and it allows people to quickly skip crap posts.

I'm funny
