It would be pretty easy to poach them from the #Help forum on Bnet. I see a couple complaints about the forum layout every day (sometimes more).

I suppose I'd kill to prevent the killing of someone I care about, but I can't see myself giving my own life for anything. I'm a bit too selfish for that.

Keep in mind that this is still in the testing stages, and I'll be adjusting the numbers as I see how quickly or slowly members move through the ratings.
The inner workings of this new system will not be publicly announced to make exploiting it more difficult. I will say this, though: hitting the "Bad" rating is quite a bit harder to do, now. 5857
The Flood / Re: Ascended Users Hangout« on: August 08, 2014, 01:13:36 AM »
Trust prefixes have been recalculated. The current build is something closer to how it will function when it's finished. As you can see, the more annoying members have kept the Bad rating and the more valued members are rated higher.

The Flood / Re: Ascended Users Hangout« on: August 08, 2014, 12:16:20 AM »Why?Mostly because it's a nice, automatic shitpost deterrent that will be difficult to exploit once the Trust rating system is tweaked. 5863

I think that's genius...and a little sad. Don't people realize that these "limited edition" games will eventually be available somewhere for a reduced price? It happened with Halo 3, Reach, and I think even with Halo 4.
Crazy. 5871

I've updated the rules regarding placement of threads (political/religious/other serious issues in Serious, gaming in Gaming, forum help in Support, and everything else in The Flood). I'm also moving this thread to Serious, so from my post on everyone will be expected to play nice. 5873

Gaming / Re: Official Xbox Live Free Pass Bank« on: August 07, 2014, 07:35:54 PM »What's wrong with buying and selling them?To expand on what Slash said: it's more of a liability thing. I don't want to be responsible for someone conducting transactions on the site. While it's true that you could get away with it, so long as you kept it to PMs, I still don't recommend it. eBay, or even craigslist, are going to be better options for you if you want to sell stuff. Trading item for item or code for code is fine, but you're going to be doing so at your own risk. But this is kind of off topic, since the OP didn't mention buying/selling/trading of XBL trials. I just thought it needed to be said before the issue eventually came up. 5878
Septagon / Re: Notifications Via App Messed Up« on: August 07, 2014, 07:23:38 PM »
Alright, I'll investigate it but I cannot promise anything. The tapatalk app is very much its own separate thing, and I am not sure it's possible to make changes to it.

Gaming / Re: Official Xbox Live Free Pass Bank« on: August 07, 2014, 05:46:20 PM »
This stuff is fine so long as there is no buying and selling involved. Trades are acceptable, but keep in mind that you're doing so at your own risk.

The Flood / Re: Interesting hypothetical situation.« on: August 07, 2014, 05:40:31 PM »I fucking hate it when people do this. Why are you bothering? It's a thought experiment, not a plan of action.He might as well be asking what would happen to water if it became cardboard. It's an impossibility because I have access to the database and can erase any record of a ban from the back end. Even if someone were able to remove my admin powers, I could go in and change them back in the database. Besides that, I make backups of the database and forum structure so things could be restored. But ignoring all that, I'd say no more than three weeks (maybe a month). It would take a while, but eventually the mods would start getting banned and word would catch on that the forum is sinking; the angry, angry Offtopic members would swarm with clusters of spam and it would soon be abandoned. |
