I'm curious to see how long this lasts, considering how many parts of the forums never get moderated full stop.

How do you change your account name anyway?

Just being helpful but it says in the long original post that when the new forum website is online you will have to re-apply to those forums.

When you re-apply to the new forums you do not have to use the same name for those new forums as no info will be transferred automatically unless you re-register under the same log-in name.

Again just being helpful and only highlighting what they already said.

You asked me that some ten days ago, did you even check your visitor messages?

Back on topic, you will be able to register under a different name once new forum is up.

you can test on the TC because of a wipe?

#38 09-13-2010, 06:17 PM

The wipe has an estimated time. Keep playing on NOVA and testing the OR thats what we are supposed to be doing. The wipe may not come for a while, these guys are working hard on fixing stuff so just enjoy what we have. If we all quit playing because a wipe is coming, whats the point. Just keep playing, wipe or no wipe.

I hope not too much time and aggravation because Myself and my two nephews live in the same house and it was a pain for me to get them set up the first time.

i have to agree with some here in that the expiration times seem way too long. there is short and there is long and then there is way too long. most of those expiry times are way too long. even if a troller gets slapped over and over again. a three month suspension would work for that troublemaker. i mean, who is gonna remember him after 3 months?
i think the expiry dates should be 3 months and 6 months max. naturally the permanent bans are permanent.
but if someone does some really stupid stuff here, i think a 6 month spanking would be appropriate. not friggen 2 years. and boy do those points add up fast in the new system, especially with 2 year expiry dates!

Nedak · #41 09-13-2010, 07:13 PM

Good job, guys.

You realize that the expiry date does not equal the punishment right? I don't see anything with an expiry date of 2 years that gives more than 3 points and that is a 3 weeks ban, not a 2 year ban. And all of those are serious offenses. As in real-world illegal.

Aramis Lionel · #43 09-13-2010, 07:40 PM

Very nicely explained and straight forward rule set

Kolo.M · #44 09-13-2010, 08:30 PM

ya but the POINTS last for 1 year and 2 years. thats the point. you can never get out from under those points. and they do add up to 5 REALLY FAST. so after your 4 point 3 month suspension, you have to basically be a really good boy for 21 months to avoid the permanent ban on your 5th point. like 6 months later and you make a small mistake and get 1 point and then are BANNED FOR LIFE, as it is your 5th point.
thats what i mean by long expiry dates. you may have forgotten what you did 6 months ago and then you get walloped with permaban on a small infraction.

Kolo.M · #45 09-13-2010, 08:36 PM

my point is this, if you pay the price for your misdeed, like 3 month suspension, then the points that incurred that penalty should be then wiped. not hanging over your head for the next 21 months.
think about it, you are sitting with 4 points and you get 1 more point for trolling. and by your definition, trolling can mean most anything. i got accused of trolling by making a sardonic reply to a post in a thread that i was already in the discussion on.
that would be a 1 pointer for a quick comment and for that 4 point guy, HE GETS BANNED FOR LIFE on something said in a small post.
