Maybe we should just change GD to Serious Discussion. I mean, if that's what it is, the name would more accurately reflect the content. |
Yeah, that's probably a good idea. |

Turn OT in to a true Spam Board, where all of the rules apply except for the spam and flooding rules. Some of the discussions in there are quality enough to fit in GD or elsewhere.
Harder punishments on those who break the rules elsewhere.
Clans and clubs, damnit. |
Yes, please replace OT with LB's idea. It should have SOME rules, yeah...
Or just rename OT right now. |

No spam board, please. It's a waste of bandwidth. |

What's a few bandwidths for a better digibutter overall? Tell me this: If you ran a forum, and it was a cesspool of spam because there was no defined place for it, and where it was occuring was incredibly uptight about it, would you not creat a forum for it just because it wasted bandwidth? Seriously, you're going to have to come up with a MUCH better argument than that to sway me from my idea. |

I doubt it would eat up too many, anyway. |

Here's an idea: Have all topics die 2 days after the last post, instead of a week like OT or the old Dump. |

Here is what you do.
Take one of your old stickied Digiblogger posts, change the title to *UR NAME*'s Dump.
And let people spam in it.
Done. |

Because of the premise "digiblogger is meant to describe real-world events that happen to you." |

...dont see why you need a spamboard...
...all that will encourage is MORE spam...
...Just because theres spam doesnt mean you should make a place for even more spam...
...dont know how that would help the community...
...putting a place for useless not needed crap...
...I dont know what to do...
...You say theres too much spam...
...But you also say that they're too STRICT for spam...
...That makes ABSOLUTELY no sense...
V kind of off-topic V
...If theres too much spam,then get stricter...
...(I think we should follow the above)...
...but the stricter Spam wouldn't be a word count...
...Word counts are near usless...
...What you need si to evaluate the meaning of the post, its contribution to the thread, and if its understandable...
...-1 for adding Spam Forum...

Look in the court. The majority of those topics are for short spam messages. Where? IN OT. It's a casual forum, but casual isn't defined. The smallest bit of spam is striked there. It's way too uptight, really. If we had a spamboard, there'd be less strikes, and possibly less hate for the mods. |

...alright seriously...
...you weren't around when the dump was even here...
...so in all honesty you don't know how it was...
...the way it used to be...
...actually allowed us to post a random picture we found...(I'll stop because typing like that is annoying)
without getting striked or anything. Now we pretty much need to give a paragraph suitable to discuss the picture in order to avoid a strike.(Yet, people can still post a video and say "lol epic" and get away with it) |

This is win. I've seen many suggestions like this, and I've agreed all the way |
