Counting posts in some forums and not others does peeve me a bit, but on the other hand post counts don't really matter at all, so its close to a non-issue for me. I do think mafia contributes to the community at least in the same way that forum games or things like the pokemon tournament or...

Its certainly possible to have exceptions for a filter and whatever filter is being used clearly already does that, otherwise the problem would be a lot more common. Whether or not the filter is editable to that degree by the forum staff is another question.

make it so that you can like your own posts so that people can give themselves a confidence boost when they're feeling down

i think auto-censoring is appropriate considering this forum is meant to be family friendly. If its possible to improve to improve the swear filter so that it doesn't do things like censor youtube links then i'd support that

i haven't noticed any problems with the censorship algorithm. Is scunthorpe even censored? edit: it isn't, apparently. Can you point out where the site has errenously censored something that isn't a swear? If its possible to turn off censoring locally i see no reason why that shouldn't be...

i think at least lowering the cooldown is probably fine. I've never seen a bot on here so i feel like the spam filter probably mostly stops them entirely already. I don't know how often people have freakouts, especially the sort that would be stopped by a 25 second posting cooldown, but it could...

I think MD is already a fairly toxic place and taking some of the edge off could do it some good. I don't tend to use the reaction system much to begin with anyways though, so maybe i'm underestimating how important it is to people.

Its just something I've come to enjoy and I enjoy being on this community and so i thought it was worth bringing up. Its not a big deal to me. As for why I'm putting as much energy into it as I am, i guess its because i enjoy posting on forums and talking about things like this, and so i don't...

I feel like allowing multiple accounts won't result in more ban evasion happening, nor will it allow in more trolling happening. Both of those things are already against the rules. Allowing multiple accounts effectively only affects people who are doing so whilst following the rules. People who...

The only sites i've been on where this is a problem are sites with hundreds of thousands or millions of accounts. I feel like it won't be an issue here , although admittedly with the focus on the zelda IP there are a smaller number of usernames which may be specifically desirable. I feel like...

it sounds like krow didn't use it to get around a ban, so the assertion that they would solely be used to get around bans seems false. I don't see why you can't just make ban evasion or "nefarious disgusting ****" against the rules. Surely krow could have been banned for being emotionally...

remove the rule banning the use of multiple accounts

making 30 posts takes me around an hour most months. the average mafia game probably involves dozens of hours of reading/writing. (unless you're doc, but he doesn't average 30 posts a game anyways) Mafia is a pretty high-effort and time consuming game. Casually chatting about a variety of topics...

Clearly that means they're here for the community and not just to play mafia. There are lots of other zelda forums on the internet as well, but the people who choose to post here do so because this is the only zelda forum with these members. Likewise, the people who play mafia on this site play...

great post echo, i agree with everything you said thanks jimmu

you can just click on the thread and get a summary of everyone who posted in it and how many times they posted, if anything it'd be easier for the mafia section because there's only 2-3 active threads a month, unlike in other forums. does responding to people's posts with shrugging emojis...

I don't know what definition of discussion you're using but under these definitions i would consider roleplays and mafia games discussion.

i'm not seeing much of this in the sections where post counts are enabled really. A good majority of the threads on the site seem to fullfil the purpose of post count farms to me. I wouldn't be opposed to vetting which posts you want to count and which don't, but i'm not sure what your metric...

if you want people on the site roleplaying or playing mafia then i don't see why you wouldn't count the posts there. If you'd rather people didn't play mafia or roleplay, or if you don't care if they do, then it makes sense to not count posts, but i don't know why that would be the case. It...

I'm also fond of longer pages, for what thats worth.

You should put a description on how the bot-blocking feature works somewhere visible so that new people will be able to see it and avoid using the banned strings in their posts! Also it would be nice to have a feature that lists all of the posts made on the forum in chronological order! There...
