Wait... It's locked!? But it was interesting! Someone unlock it!
I'm not too sure how this would be implemented, or even if it's possible with the current events plugins. As it stands, it auto-scrapes periodically (but related to the number of people viewing the page, so essentially random) and the mods can all force the plugin to scrape as well by clicking a link. I'll have to have a think about potential solutions for this.
I feel your pain, but I'm not sure if there are any options out there. In the likely event that I can't find anything to improve this for you, I can only suggest that you use another site for voting and link to it in a thread here.
Not something I have the ability or desire to interfere with.
Tried changing something with this. Try it out for a few days and let me know if it's better now.
Oh you picked the wrong day the summon my inner bitch.
Let me just get this out of the way quickly.
Fuck you.

The last thing I need right now is yet another stuck-up, kool-aid drinking getting in my face and telling me I need to submit to their bullshit or go back to my "basement". So take your Kluweless crap and go back to fucking Gawker or SA or wherever the hell you came from. I've had enough people pushing me around in my life and believe me you little poo-flinger, I will push back ten times as hard.
- Guy comes into your thread, saying things you don't like, perhaps in a wrong manner
- Instead of reporting it, explaining that this thread is /kind of sensible/ and arguments quickly turn bad with a deletion request, you lash back
- Guy then says "Oh well I'm done with you, let's just ignore each other"
- You toss forward 3 paragraphs of insults
Thread gets closed, ILLUMINATI MODS!!!!!!!!!!!
Shrug
A thread?While I agree with @BlackRoseAngel that the Gaming Journalism thread shouldn't been locked, I feel like this argument should be discussed somewhere else.
But it was pretty good BEFORE this happened, right? what about just news updates and such, like a gaming magazine, you know? Just articles, and if anyone posts chicken porn like that one guy did on my thread, you just report it, and move along! I may just be idealistic, but I think it's worth a shot! If I could get that to work peacefully, would you let me do it?
Fair enough. Well, can't say I didn't try!
No
