Gothic.net Upgrades You Would Like? - Page 16

I think Vyvian wanted more music banners, not section(s)? Or maybe I misread.

After a time it seems nothing but nagging, but the calendar is still stuck.
Also, on the bands section in the links, you can choose to see them in order of rating, but only for the first page.
When you click next on the bands, they stop being ordered by rating, and this is bad because there's over fifty pages of bands.
You should do something to keep them in order after clicking next. (also, I think some bands are repeated, but I'm not sure)

Good catch Jillian.

By the way Admin Gods: how often does the rating counter update? I have been rating band and clothing websites, but the number of clicks stays at zero, even the next day.

Yeah, it's not falling on deaf ears. It does need to be done. We did just fix the topsites, so that's cool. Calendar should be next up on the upgrade list.

Yeah, that kind of bothers me too. It's a flaw in the coding. We are currently working on fixing that up, along with improved searching throughout the links section.

You know, I'm not certain what the real interval is there. I'll have to look into it. The links area is getting some work done behind the scenes, so maybe we'll tweak the timeline a bit too.

Not a priority, just curious. Members may think a site is not popular when it actually is, that's all. Thanks for the response.

My computer does show when I rate stuff. O_o

CptSternn · 04-04-2007, 01:05 AM

With the number of spambots hitting this site along with new spam users couldn't a turing test be implemented into the new user form along with a valid email check and restrictions that force users to post in an introductory thread and wait 24 hours before being allow to post on the main site?

Those three things are pretty much common place on most of the other forums I frequent and literally cut down on spam related hassle by about 99%.

If it wouldn't be so much to ask for, I would like to see a new board on Gnet covering debates, ranging from abortion, gay marriage, euthanasia, religion, war, terrorism and the likes. I mean, it would be a board dedicated solely to debates and moderated so only the real flesh of what is being discussed comes about.

Godslayer Jillian · 04-09-2007, 11:41 AM

Doesn't Politics cover all that? (except religion)

Valerius · 04-09-2007, 09:39 PM

Well, you see there's this other forum I used to to go that had a board called Great Debates. It had strict rules on the conduct of a debate and was constantly moderated with nuisance debates deleted outright. Trolls were banned from entering the board and only replies with sufficient relevance were kept afloat.

If Politics could be regulated in such a way, it would make debating here much more interesting since as of right now you got an individual whose love for hatebreeding really nauseates my want for debating.

*disabling of multiple accounts.
It would be good if people would not be able to have multiple accounts. One person, one account.

*banning of malignant individuals.
CptSternn, 'Bloopie'. Superspright, etc.

*re-enabling of private message.
The private message feature is vital to the sociological interaction of the site.

Those are my requests to the DJ.

That's close to impossible to enforce

CptSternn: Someone shouldn't be banned for not sharing you opinions. At least he is capable of having a discussion.

Super Spright: Already banned.

I agree on this one, but the Gods already knows that.

It is relentless force. I am returning force. I am capable of discussion. That is different than the behavior Sternn exhibits. He is no different than using a blunt instrument to blugion relentlessly.
At some point, someone needs to stand up and confront.

Cyntrox · 04-17-2007, 04:52 AM

He has contributed to the boards, and he's not trolling. That's good enough for me.

Enjoy your teabag...

:-P (I'm kidding).

MollyMac · 04-17-2007, 05:20 AM

When in doubt, just put them on ignore. As for Spright/Bloopie/etc... the same. Why let them get to you?

Frankly, it takes a lot to get banned here. And that is probably a good thing as I have made some rather foul statements myself from time to time, you son of a motherless goat. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

:P

That does sound interesting.

Macabre · 04-23-2007, 06:59 PM

A Shoutbox, FlashChat, or Blog area would be nice.

disorder · 04-24-2007, 05:59 AM

Before all the 'Fiction' and 'Articles' and 'Board' links were all up the top of the screen, on the front page there used to be a list of the threads recently posted in. I liked that.

Saphyra Runa · 04-24-2007, 08:52 AM

That is still there disorder. It's on the right on the Welcome Page.

disorder · 04-24-2007, 06:30 PM

Oooooh alright. I found it. It was hidden. Thanks Saphyra.

Dancing_in_rain · 04-28-2007, 08:55 PM

It would be nice to have a chat program. Like ****** for example.
