Move forum games?

I know you would have to make it, but its better than making a group of people mad about it, the button would make everyone happy.

 

Do you have an argument besides losing your posts?
The thread will remain on the front page, so that's no longer a problem. I really fail to see why people are so genuinely upset about this.

 

We don't need to move the thread because it lacks a proper reason to be moved. The only reason you are giving it to be moved is because you claim it is a source of useless posts.
Several people are having fun in that thread and yet you wish to have it moved for your own personal gains?


I care about having fun myself and sharing that joy with other members of the community.

You should had made this thread earlier if you felt it was such a concern, but given you have only acted recently since I've caught up on your post count, most of us have ideas on why you are so determined to tear it down.
You're in denial. Accept the truth that the forum games is a positive light of life and not a make-believe problem you make it out to be!

 

downy, if people want to keep their votes then LET THEM

Let them think it over because you cant force anyone to change their mind

 

and as jozzeh said, u have no good reason to move it cause the spam

What spam is there other than the numbers!!!!!

 

Last time im going to reply, im not upset about it, its only posts.

But we cant see if theres someone who posted there, and we have to go through some stuff to see that.

If it is your and/or n0:names will to let it stay there, then so be it. I'll deal with it.

 

Once again you've failed to respond to my solution to this, THE THREAD WON'T DISAPPEAR.

And really, if I wanted to stay on top of the list I would've just changed post counts. This is hardly my concern.

That's the exact thing, you CAN SEE if someone posted there.

Nothing changes on the front page except for a few shifts in position in the top poster's list.
You can still see the threads in the 'Latest Posts' list and it'll also still be there in the 'Hottest Threads' list.

 

But you still give no clear reply as to WHY it needs to be moved (Which you already did).

It all looks like a desperate attempt, especially given the poll itself suggests "No" to be the winning argument.
What happened to that?

Is this how you plan on act, given the poll results?

(And the thread has returned!)

 

I've given my reasons as to why it has to be moved at least a dozen of times now. Scroll up in our chat history or click back a few pages.

The thread is already back, it was just me testing something.

 

But Downy, you're recycling the same thing over and over again: Inflation of posts, useless posts and spam.




Why are you denying the facts? Countless of times I have counter-argued that the reasons to move the thread are completely trivial; it doesn't make a major difference that the forum needs. You only end up making several people disappointed.

It can't be that hard to just ignore the thread and click on another.

 

ahaaaaa ur right, doesn't he want to remove spam even though he is doing it himself? xD

 

But so have you.

As I've said, it's not about the thread in specific.

I'll state my argument again;
These forum games, in specific 'three word game' is artificially inflating the posts counts. Now, the post counter on the right of the page no longer gives a proper view of the posts considering 1/3 of those are gained by posting nonsensical three-worded posts in a forum game thread.

I have nothing against the idea of this thread, the exact opposite to be precise, but as of now it's just there to gain posts in an easy way.
Let me make clear again that;

*The threads will not disappear from the 'Latest posts' list.
*The threads will not disappear from the 'Hottest posts' list.
*You can still see when someone has posted something new, that's not changing at all.

And please Dungun, only post if you have something of value to add to this discussion.

 

Not yet, hold your horses.

Also, I might be quick to jump to conclusions again, but it seems most people have voted just to not lose their post count.

Edit: I replied to http://puu.sh/8JkJX.png, so I don't look like someone talking to myself. Which is weird.

 

You must have something against the thread, why would you be so dead-determined to have it moved if you didn't.

And so what if it's an "easy way to gain posts"?

Just move along.






The numbers do not lie.
Keep in mind upvoting your own suggestion doesn't count.

Getting a bit outweighed there.
The tides have truly turned.

You keep asking the same question over and over again, expecting different results.
This is my reasoning behind this, not a personal vendetta against the thread.

 

Again, what is the big issue of the thread being a big post central?

You know it just as much as I do, but the fact you're still denying it greatly shows your determination to have it moved.



It is trivial.

 

The exact answer to your very question is in the very puush I linked.

 

That's not an answer!

Tell you the truth, having it stop counting posts would basically be like hiding activity. What's the point of having a post counter if we're not allowed to have it increase for our posts?



Your answer is but an excuse to confuse people with trivial concerns.

 

may i say this

This is getting intense

Downy and jozzeh plz stop arguing u both have ur own points and u wont change ur minds, i respect that, but that doesnt mean that u should fight, we are ONE community and we should try to expand our possibilities, jozzeh is right, downy stop trying to change his opinion cause he wont and he made up his own mind, so u both should respect that and wait for the results (and im with jozzeh btw :3 )

 

It is in fact an answer.

Let me answer your question with a comparison.

Let's say we have a tf2 server which is, unfortunately, empty most of the time.
We write a plugin artificially increasing the amount of players. Those players do not actually exist.
If a new player were to join this server, only to find out the players that he saw in the list do not exist, he'd be very disappointed.

Now, our 'players' do exist, but are, well, kind of spam.
