    Thread locked

    In the name of efficiency, how about we lock every thread ever made on this forum, before it's made?

    For example, in the future, this thread would already have been locked before it was made, because nobody is allowed to post on these forums.

    For the dwindling threads that remain on these forums, how about we go ahead and lock them down right now?

    Does that sound like a good idea or what?

    If your answer was 'no', then you're in the wrong place son.

    If you're talking about the thread with the bonus gold it's a program that Gree runs. Send in a ticket asking about it.

    As for the mods locking threads that's their way of getting attention. Pathetic!!

    We freely promote tolerance, understanding, and discussion. As a matter of fact we encourage it!

    Like a forum post Minority Report?

    Threads will be created and they will inevitably invite comments which may result in eventual infractions. Therefore, thread creation should be eliminated to prevent such eventualities.

    I like it.

    I very rarely comment, but I always get a good chuckle from the mods threatening to lock threads you guys comment on back and forth on. They take this board way too seriously. It's kinda sad, actually. They must know the game is dying a slow death. I wonder if they joke around the office and have bets going. "X amount of days until we are out of a job."

    What purpose would us moderators have in locking threads for attention. Your attempt at defamation goes evaded. We don't desire attention, we just want the same things most people want for the games we do play.

    That would be libel, not slander. Just an FYI for future legal action.

    It is impossible to make a spoken statement in writing, regardless of accuracy. All statements made in writing are written statements.

    Edit: Lol. The post to which mine refers was deleted. I would have quoted it but I think that would have been considered naming and shaming.

    To say the moderation here is heavy handed would be a tremendous understatement.

    I have been watching from the sidelines and it seems that the moderators are only doing what is needed to. Break the CoC and you will get an array of things (post edit, deleted, warning, infraction, ban).

    Moderation has been justified, but some guys seem power hungry (non moderators) to a point where what you say or do holds more weight than someone who holds a greater position in power. Just because you feel high and mighty as a tapper or a regular poster, you still have to follow the rules. For those that continue to get moderated, you might want to rethink how you post and don't just troll for the sake of it.

    Threads like this only exist to cause unrest and don't provide actual value to the GAME.

    Remove the fun and banter, the fourms will die even more than they already have

    You're new here. There used to be lots of conversation here, including arguments, debates, taunting, bragging, etc. People used to enjoy coming here to talk.

    I'll be back when the moderation is reasonable. Enjoy the forum you created, Gree.
