Suggestions for Improvement

[Super Mario Bros.]

"games that can be played on the internet" would have been less redundant.

That wouldn't have gotten my point across. There are a lot of games that can be played on the internet. It's another thing to refer to games that are exclusive to the internet.

They're called MMOGs. (Massively Multiplayer Online Games) or MOGs (Multiplayer Online Games).

...Oh yeah. How could I have forgotten that? x_X Well, thank you for bringing that to my attention.

This is not very important, but meh.... Can the stars for banned accounts be changed from 5 to 0? or to 1 if that is not possible?

 

[Tyrell Badd]

I think they shoudl just be changed to one black star.

 

[Nerdy Guy]

We don't have black stars installed, iirc. :P

Zero's not possible, and we already use 1 gray star for users who don't have any posts.

Oh thats true...

 

[Tyrell Badd]

But is too cool for fools who get banned.

 

[Garlic Man]

What's wrong with the 5 grey stars anyway?

 

[Stooben]

There's nothing wrong with it, really. I see no reason to change it.

Because technically, 5 Silver/Gray Stars = 1 gold Star, but there is no need.

 

[Garlic Man]

Speaking of which, I just realized that I got a 6th star when I went over 5000 posts. Whoo!

Whoa whoa whoa! Only I brag about my post count, man.

 

[Super Mario Bros.]

........Ooooookay.

Going back on topic, the Forum Games board is full of... uh... Topics that are lame excuses for games (such as "Rate the above user's signature.", "Rate the User above avatar!", "The Reverse Thread", "What would you do if you were somehow in a Mario game?", "Name a country that reminds you of the above user", "Name a Mario character that reminds you of the above user", "Ctrl+V", "Write a poor fan fiction", "Hot or Not", "Random Question, Random Answer", "the mario shop o' shoe's and stuff", and many, many other topics). These shouldn't be in Forum Games, as they are not actual games; they would actually fit in much better with topics in Off-Topic Discussion or Mindless Junk.

 

[Garlic Man]

I don't understand how "Reverse Thread" is not a forum game. (Or "Rate the above user's signature/avatar" for that matter)

 

[Uniju]

Everything can be a game if you have fun doing it.

 

[Super Mario Bros.]

I don't understand how "Reverse Thread" is not a forum game. (Or "Rate the above user's signature/avatar" for that matter)

"Reverse thread" is more understandable to consider a game.

"Rate the above user's signature/avatar" really has no point to it. It's not a competition, it's not "for fun and games." It would fit more in off-topic, with other threads such as the thread where you post the amount of PMs you have.

 

[Garlic Man]

The "amount of PMs" thread is a factual thread while "rate the above[...]" is opinion-based.

 

[Super Mario Bros.]

Then it should go in Mindless Junk, not Forum Games.

 

[Uniju]

No it should not. People are allowed to go off-topic in Mindless Junk.
If you want to move it anywhere, it should be in Off-Topic.

 

[Super Mario Bros.]

No it should not. People are allowed to go off-topic in Mindless Junk.
If you want to move it anywhere, it should be in Off-Topic.

That was my unstated point.

It isn't mindless, but it really isn't a game. It's not a competition and it's not really made for amusement. It's to rate people's signatures.

 

[ralphfan]

I don't think there's a need to move any of those.

Hey, whatever happened to DP's idea of splitting up General Entertainment?

Also, I'd like to make a request: We should totally add the skin that the forum had in 2007/2008 (the old one with the mushrooms). It's retro and looked cool. If it's not possible then it doesn't really matter.

The mods decided that it wasn't really necessary.

Uh...done?

...Whoah. I think it looks awesome. :O

 

[Tyrell Badd]

Hmm, interesting although I think it shoudl be a ? Block instead of Starship Mario because it makes more sense. Not only is it keeping the similarities of items from the series, but also the ? is asking "Who is online?" :P I know, bad joke.
