It's a shame you're allowed to post without reading the rules first imo.

I am actually dead serious that having a number of stickied threads isn't a bad idea at all, just make sure you unsticky them if they lose steam and also don't be afraid to goldmine that poo poo

For a non shitpost, actual suggestion: roll the feedback thread and the rules thread into one.

I'll put it up for consideration. There's merit to keeping them separate because it's usually good to have the rules thread be its own thing but let's noodle on that

I think that every time you click on a thread the rules thread should pop up first and you have to scroll through and click an “I accept” button.

Why? I'm not objecting, just curious about your reasoning.

In my personal view, I guess it's part "it's always been that way not just in GBS but on SA in general" and part "I don't necessarily want to turn the rules thread into a pseudo-chat thread". I know the first one is dumb reasoning, trust me, but I also like the idea of having one space where people can see the rules and not feel like they have to go through tons of pages to see why everyone's talking about something

I'd say the rules thread needs to be separate so it is more clear if it gets updated. Also just to keep it as a clear and easily-accessible resource if needed.

Yeah turning the rules thread into a feedback thread just guarantees even fewer people will read it when it shows 300 pages because they’ll think it’s 300 pages of rules and not one page of rules and 299 pages of slapfights.

Yeah as a reminder he's the guy that "sued" SA and put in official court documents that "many users have stated they do not like me or my posting"

But he's keeping the forums viable now that Alec Eiffel has been taken out behind the shed so thanks EIU! :cheers:

Sorry I wasn't more clear. By "not the same ol reregs" I meant new people being permabanned and exactly not that guy that sued the forums :)

Is that guy really paying for those accounts though? I remember one of those constant rereg guys was using stolen cc's? Dare probably, or King Reol? Seraph?!
