How would you change the I-Mockery forums?

Don't you think that letting them post as much as they want sorta tells you right off the bat whether or not they suck, though? If there's a limit set by the software, you might not know until it's too late and suddenly they're vets and they change their name to Carnivore or something.

I'll actually look into this one, because with the changes I'm making to the forums, the ratio of threads to forums will be a LOT bigger. Plus, the most-bumped threads are usually the worst ones.

I've never needed a reason to give someone a furry porn avatar in the past, and making more work for myself in the future (having to go in and manually reset their profile every time some idiot from gamefaqs thinks they can bring Harry Potter in HD-DVD to their avatar box) doesn't seem like a good idea. Unless I'm missing something here.

I agree big time. To add to this, I'll also look into returning the 'find out who this fuck this actually is' button from phpBB, and make IP bans a little easier too.

Neither of these forums are going to exist on the new boards, and the NSFW thread won't exist either. The software age limit might actually be a good idea as a thread option that the original poster can set, though, and I'll look into that. Not that it's especially hard to HACK THA SYSTEM, but if I can retroactively set peoples' ages back too, this might also serve as an idiot barrier for good threads.

Agreed. Anyone have a problem with this?

I kinda like the muted colors of the forum. Is anyone else having issues? Your monitor may also be darkening due to old age.

Good suggestions, everybody, keep 'em coming

They slip by now anyway. It wasn't too long ago that dj spock came on here pretending to be an ugly girl and more than half of the regulars didn't notice something was up. A limit would just prevent all the dumb shit that you guys end up deleting anyway. People who suck always seem to stick out quite a bit even if they're low key.

Even better! Thanks! I may also suggest that possibly as a warning you can put miscreants in CHILD MODE if they are acting like one and then are blocked from good threads until they grow up. CHILD MODE should have pastel colors too!
