Please fax me all your post so I can learn your ways. (PM for fax number).
If there's garbage in my room, I clean the garbage and enjoy a healthy living space. I don't seal the room and never go in there again. But this isn't my room, so I have no say in the matter.
Yeah, and I've yet to see a hotel just stop booking rooms forever cause they were dirty either.
Kinda off-topic, but I was unaware Nintendo had an official forum. How recent is it?
It started in 2003 when Nintendo Power created a forum. Then Nintendo Power died so Nintendo took over the forums.
I remember Cynical said something about some scrubs on facebook who hosted tournaments there because they didn't want Skullheart to see them. If some little party of 10 mashers or non-fg players on Steam forums is emailing a bunch of complaints to Skullheart mods about how awful the forum is, I'm going to laugh when these changes fail to bring those people anywhere near here.
Yeah, I doubt the off-topic section at the bottom of the web page was the reason they hated Skullheart.
Okay just confirmed.
The mods here are beyond stupid. Stay ass guys.
hmmph hmmph agreed.
Going on 3 years for me personally.
Yeah, and I bet it wasn't the off-topic section that made you frustrated with Skullheart, huh?
I already have two teaching jobs to deal with, but instead I spent my morning dealing with assholes far less mature than the kids I teach. I couldn't keep up with how many people posted and how frequently they were doing it. I'm sick of it and this is the solution.
Well honestly, if it's interfering with your work outside of this forum, I'd suggest asking if someone else would like to volunteer or help you out. Idk if you get paid for moderating, but if you don't, then you probably shouldn't be letting it interfere with your work outside of the forums. I'd assume you have more of an obligation to those teaching jobs.
I'm surprise they let you be on Skullheart on the job, I know my job would have reprimanded me already. Same with my Mom, she works at a school too. Guess it was on your phone? Are you an art teacher? Cause then I'd see why you might have more breaks during class... not that I'm approving of you choosing skullheart over your kids. If they were my kids, I'd want it to stop, I don't send my kids to school so that the teacher is on a online forum not paying attention to them. I used to work in childcare, if I did such a thing I wouldn't have been welcomed back every year lol.
Sorry, I get really frustrated with people who are doing stuff like this in childcare/education.
At this point, we now have mods saying that you can't post any Christmas art of Squigly in the Squigly Appreciation question.
This is astounding.
Don't worry, the Skullgirls will save Christmas!
Guys!
I know what the mods did!
They got rid of all the OFF-TOPIC threads so that we could all just post here instead!
Man, what an amazing plan.
Sure looks like it.
So, we can't even spread Christmas cheer related to Squigly in the Squigly Thread.
...
Well dahm.
Skullgirls pls save Christmas! ;_;
If you really want to talk about Christmas, I'm sure you can discuss Double color palette 21 in the designated thread.
Be careful, though: the colors red and green are not related to Skullgirls so you could possible get banned.
This is golden. Like River King Casino. (Not RED or GREEN. Don't shoot me please.)
That explanation should get posted to the rules thread on the art forum so it can be seen.
Yeah I agree. I'm going to go check if it is after I finish catching up on two days of post.
A chat does not work like a forum.
It can get prettyyyy close if you never sleep. But if you like to sleep and keep a conversation going with multiple people, forums do the job better. You're right. Unfortunately we can't have conversations after we've run out of Skullgirls related things to talk about. I guess we can use this thread, there's not really much Skullgirls talk in here.
Because it was still there when I posted.
Man, can you let this man rock. Not his fault he doesn't know what changes were coming.
After boring through this thread,I can say I,for one,trust the mods to do the right thing.
Also,in civil war,I recall Spidey leaving the Pro Registration,and running for the hills.Not too apt a description for Dekillsage.
Sounds exactly like
@dekillsage . He would definitely attend something just to hangout looool. Also I don't trust the mods, since the whole thread is a very one-sided conversation. I guess the last time mass-deletion was discussed they just deleted that thread too! Hard to trust moderation that isn't transparent in their actions. (It's called "Bad Business," in the real world).
So I've been skimming through this thread since it has taken off so much, and from what I gather it seems the mods are doing some cleaning up, which is fine, but then saying there will be the removal of off-topic, which if true is...weird...
The removal of off-topic would result in a consolidation of discussion to be pretty much exclusive to SG, which sounds fine on paper, but can seemingly stifle the community and limit the new blood that might want to hang out in skullheart. To limit the discussions is to limit the conversations between individuals, who are more in depth and complex than to be an enthusiast of a specific game (in this case, Skullgirls) I feel open conversations of other topics opens up an understanding with other people because it gives you an insight as to what that person is like, what they like to do, play, interests, dislikes, etc etc. Are there inevitable trolls posting, yea sure, but those same trolls are just going to post in the other available threads that are going to be open. Trolls gonna troll, so to speak.
I understand mods maybe wanting to "cut the fat" so to speak with the overabundance of topics in off-topic, but to axe the entire thing, would just be alienating people who want to have conversations beyond this game, or games in general. If people want to discuss something beyond the scope of the gaming realm, they'll go to other places, and that means less membership here, which results in a slowly withering and dying website. I've seen it before.
Now don't get me wrong. I never really posted in off-topic general. More so games and a bit in anime, but that's about it, however, many people do, and it gives people a common interest to talk about, which in turn motivates them to stay within the community, rather than splinter off to other realms.
Anyway, that my two cents. Take with it what you will.
Yeah as a new player, it's kinda hard to keep up and contribute to competitive discussion or similar. You're new to the game and still learning, but not everyone just wants to lurk on a forum all day. (Some do, I feel it). Those who can't really contribute much to the discussions like to have a place where they can discuss what they do know. It is a forum after all, kinda hard to be on it all the time when you're not discussing anything.
It probably wouldn't hurt to clean up some of these character subforums, though. For example the stickied combo thread in the Filia subforum was made by Evilben, who has never edited the first post. That thread should probably be nuked and remade by someone who will keep it up to date.
On bigger boards they have character subforum mods that people can go to! Idk if you'd find enough volunteers here but it's worth a shot. Having a mod to go to that's a regular to the subforum you use is nice. Gets more stuff done. (Like competitive discussion!).
Cleaning up the gameplay character subforums is something on our list, I agree that there are too many stickies with too little valuable information. Many of the current stickied combo threads were made immediately after Skullheart came back up last year/when the character in question was first put in beta, and have been very poorly maintained.
I was thinking that the character combo threads could be remade by a moderator who would then continue adding onto the OP as the community posts combos in the thread. This means we wouldn't need to keep any OP on a leash. Does this sound passable?
Guess I'll suggest that, set up a google form as an application for subforum mods. It would make the mods workload easier, and it works well for the specific subforums here that already have subforum specific mods.
@moderators would be cool.
Alright, finally all caught up on two days of post. Afk.
EDIT: Yeah there's still no thread, faq, or updated rules that state why the "A mod needs to approve this," message appears. Guess people who haven't read all of this thread will continue to be confused *shrugs*
