I've been following this site for over 4 years now and a member for three. Where did it all go wrong? Yes this is probably going to get closed or deleted within minutes, but wtf. 1. Threads get closed instantly before I can even respond in suggestions and feedback 2. Threads can't be updated back onto the first page. This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of from a forum. If you respond to a thread or you're trying to sell something, it makes it 20x harder. 3. Ridiculous number of ads in the content, even when you're logged in 4. Normally I couldn't give a sh*t about infractions, but receiving 2 for responding to my own thread and questions people had. Power abuse much? I hope that when Shaun gets out of jail / the courts / wherever he is (and I have talked to Shaun multiple times personally) that he sorts this place out. Such a shame
"Shaun" hasn't gone anywhere. 1. Topics in Suggestions & Feedback that don't need further discussion are closed. If there is something you are trying to post a reply about and it's closed, you are too late. 2. Thread sorting is now set on a per user basis, so you can set them however you want (see this thread). 3. Only for some areas. I wouldn't exactly say a maximum 3 ads on a single (large) page of content is a ridiculous amount of ads. Hell, I see 6 ad spots on the pages of your site in your signature. 4. Dunno, don't have time to look at your individual infractions atm, sorry...
Hey Shawn, can you please answer one question. If bumping system is really banished from DP, why the members still get infractions about replying to their own thread even that has no effect on thread ?
Bumping was never allowed... just because it doesn't bump for you (based on your settings), it doesn't mean it doesn't bump for someone else (based on their settings). Regardless, the ability to bump (or not bump) certainly does not necessarily mean your post is within the posting rules/guidelines. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/faq.php?faq=rules#faq_rules_replying
Well wouldn't be better if you by default enable bumping for all users and that percentage who was fedup with bumping can turn it off for themselves. You yourself have seen that poll, I think the percentage who were annoyed by new system was reaching 60 %. Even if you do not like this idea, can you please tell you what you have in mind for future so that we can be assured And also your link of itunes http://forums.digitalpoint.com/itunes.php?song=Starsign+-+Apoptygma+Berzerk does not show me anything
Oke do you have any future plan of having an alternative system, or this system is sticked on board ?
What about the future of goats at DP? You know they are in high demand around these parts? Many DP members comment about them quite a lot
I thought you were saying for getting the system back. Nvm, its your forum, you can run any way you like.
Nice to see you around 1. You didn't really answer the question, just confirmed what happened. Ah well 2. It's fine, I'll check out Flippa or sitepoint 3. You can not tell me you are comparing sidebar ads to incontent ads that blend in with content 4. Errr....okay Read the title of the thread. Not sure what happened to this place It has been answered a few times. Do a search
