Spirit of time over mods.
Not to be rude or anything, but a topic that has a question that has been answered, can be locked, but when the topic is still providing a good conversation (that other mods are participating in, BTW) and the topic being discussed is perfectly on target with the question, even though the question has been answered, the topic shouldn't be locked just because the question was answered. (different instance) I realize that we have spam guidelines, and I respect those guidelines, but if the Basis of the thread is being followed and it's merely a simple question, the question and the answer to it need not be deleted. There is a difference between (in a thread about your future PKMN team) I want X on my team, but I don't know how to get him? (and someone answering the question) vs. someone posting "I LIEK HOTDOGS!!!" (off of SoT) And the rule on Internet acronyms makes me lol (pun intended). Honestly, there is no reason to ban the usage of lol, rofl, xD, idk, idc, and other such acronyms. As I've told other mods, there is a HUGE difference between a post that reads: "I can't believe he did that, lol." and one that reads: "OMG, Liek srsly, he is soooooo stuuuupiD! LOLOLOLOLROFLMAO. NE1 shoud no not 2 do dat crap liek dat LOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!11!!!!!1!!!!!ONEONE!!!" In my opinion, your banning the wrong thing. Don't ban the acronyms, but rather ban the excessive use of them. That is all I can think of at the moment. |

As for topic locking, topics don't get locked very often. Only stuff like the tournament boards, where we lock topics about setting up rules after the tournament, and creating new topics when one already exists. Would you mind providing a few examples?

There are a LOT of locked topics outside of the tournament board.
Open your eyes. Mostly to prevent spam on the threads, it seems. "kotone's english name has been revealed, so I'll lock this to prevent further spam" How about leaving it open so we can talk about our opinions about kotone's english name? Anyways, trying to find the one now...cant remember exactly where it is though. http://www.victoryroad.net/showthread.php?t=1773 There it is...still providing good conversation on the subject matter, and randomly locked in the middle of it.

I think the site overall is pretty good, lots of members get on and it seems fairly active however the 503 errors are quite annoying and the c-box isn't like xat or chatango in the fact that those are like on constant reload, which the one here reloads a little late. THats all the critic I have

The 503 problems will be fixed soon. Neither I nor KingOfKYA are quite sure why they occur.
As for the chatroom problems, check out this link: http://www.victoryroad.net/showthread.php?t=1882 I'm coding my own version of the chatroom, which will allow people to talk from their computers without the problems of reloading and being dropped off. It will be similar to IRC, but not quite the same. |

Ah I've been looking for this thread.
Mods: If you infract a user, please do not make a "warning post" as these are off-topic and embarrases the user. However, if enough users are breaking that same rule in the same thread, that is a good time to make a warning as it is necessary in that case. Other than that tiny part, the site seems good.

I find it really a peeve that we can't advertise other stuff. I just wanted to do a
let's play on Mystery Dungeon red (by Ustream or youtube), but I'm not going to make a post until: I feel safe knowing I can post it without "taking away from your popularity." Trust me, I want the best for Victory Road. |
