List of things these forums should have
OK, I like these forums. But they could be greatly improved. Namely, by the following (feel free to include your own additions):
-More wimmins ;(
-The option of "strikethrough" for comedy value. It replaces the asterisk, and looks amusing.
-AVATARS. To retain maximum potential, JC` should be recruited as "Head of Avatar Distribution", and chooses all avatars. In return he gets our love and adoration.
-I can't think of any more right now.
-Oh yes I can - the option to put pictures in threads. People on 56k crapness can always turn them off in options if they don't like them.
k? k! ;o

Re: List of things these forums should have
I've always been in favour of allowing the [IMG] tag, but too many people complained about the extensive modding that would be necessary to weed out naughty pictures, and Wakey still has to send his TCP/IP packets around by pigeon, so it was never allowed.

Re: List of things these forums should have
Wakey's huge posts he makes on any topic from picking his nose to walking downstairs to get a drink put more load on anyone's connection than a picture would anyway.
Surely more mods could be grabbed if needed?

Re: List of things these forums should have
As I've said many times, there should be two categories of users; people who have been with us for more than 3-6 months and then people who have just signed up. "Established" users should be able to put images in posts (but maybe put [IMAGE] in the title or something, I dunno) and if they post something shit their account gets deleted. At worst, they could only do it every 6 months.
Would minimise crapness.

Re: List of things these forums should have
nobody abuses the [img] tag any more. it's usually too much effort for a troll to signup and then post crap on an off topic forum when it will be deleted fast
keeping it disabled on the official boards (do they really exist any more?) wouldn't be a bad idea

Ace!
I asked for both avatars and img tags while i was admin and got turned down on both accounts as certain people were worried about abuse and the extra modding it would take. I was perfectly willing to take control of it all though seeing as i already modded practically every board and spent ~10 hours a day on here.
P.S. WTF **** is up with the forum?! :eek:
Edit: Seems to be fixed now.

Re: List of things these forums should have
I dont see how more women helps. Its the ****ing internet for crying out loud. I thought that subconciously we'd all realised how better this place is without the likes of slinkee and vampy. Do you want the groupies back? Not that im sexist, many women contribute more to the forums than a lot of the men. Gayle, ebany, for example. Its just unfortunate that the internet doesnt attract the most intellectual of women.

Re: List of things these forums should have
Having Vampy on the forums added extra humour wtahcing the groupies flock to the thread to say how 'way cool and radical' cutting yourself and having sex with strangers in public was.

Re: List of things these forums should have
An end to signatures and smilies.
Keep the avatars and img's gone just make sure no-one has them(not even mods, your perks are being in charge not getting an avatar).
Only xmas theme.
Low Graphics option for 56k users.
In other words, cut the fancy shtuff and let's just have the pure.

Re: List of things these forums should have
My list: - Avatars and img's 6 months after registration and N number of posts (N tbd).
- Semi-autonomy for the forums or at least an end to random abuses of power by PATeam.
- A full inquiry into Karm's abduction and brutal slaying of JJ.
- Monthly sessions of 'Revolutionary Criticism' directed against Mark and Sunday.
- A fix for Dreammaker's banner glitch on non-IE browsers.
Plus:

That's hardly likely to happen if new users are forced to sign up to a "Planetarion passport" just to post on some forums.

I wouldn't worry too much about the Passport--they've been saying 'next round' for six rounds now.

I sometimes think the PA Team are following the "Soviet Managers Guide to Obtaining Peak Efficiency" circa 1954 when running these forums.

Re: List of things these forums should have
the amount of women on the boards is more than enough. if there were any more you nerds will start hounding them like a pack of animals, and that is just wrong. It doesn't matter to you lot that they most likely look like an overgrown hog. If they have 2 tits and a pussy you will dance around them like subservient chickens

i owe my belief in conspiracy theories due to the fact that i come from a rich family and went to a set of very rich schools. I tend to see corrupt rich people fairly often and i have drawn my beliefs from them.
