Atention moderators and admins...

[gaboru93]

I was wondering if it's ok to put the link to RPGWatch on sites... and on other places... like messenger status so more members will come?

[Danicek]

I would say it's ok as far as you don't spam the link. For example some forums restrict users signatures in that area and so on.

[gaboru93]

ok then... if it's ok :D. i will post it on my web and when i have the ocasion

[Jaz]

Sure, go ahead!

[gaboru93]

At least for the first couple of posts ... the rest depends on how 'VB-ish' they are ;)

[Jaz]

the rest depends on how 'VB-ish' they are ;)Ouch! :biggrin: Yes, absolutely.

[Corwin]

So long as you're here Jaz, we won't worry too much!! :)

[Danicek]

What does it mean to be VB-is and am I VB-ish enough for this place or should I dissapaer?

[titus]

No you should only dissapear if you are vb-ish enough :D
what or who VB is? well search some older post, you may find out :P

Unfortunately he has been banned under several names, and his stuff deleted ... suffice it to say that new people are given the benefit of the doubt until they prove beyond a reasonable doubt that their general intent is hostile.

[Danicek]

Ok, I see, it is a person then...

[Cm]

Dani you are the very type of person the site needs and wants. Yes, it was a person who had to go from here. Personally I try to point people to the site as often as possible, but only in legitimate ways. Spamming it is not the first impression I want anyone to have of the site. ;)

[titus]

His full name was Viking Beserker :)

[Danicek]

Now I know his name :].

[txa1265]

Now I know his name :].

He also went by 'wheres_the_guru' and some others ... generally declaring his awesomeness and how Americans are fat, dumb and responsible for the ruination of RPG!

[Moriendor]

... and how Americans are fat, dumb and responsible for the ruination of RPG!

They aren't?










Kidding! :biggrin:

[txa1265]

Kidding! :biggrin:
Well he didn't have to be so RUDE about it ;)

[Corwin]

Sometimes, the truth just hurts!! :biggrin:

[Danicek]

Sometimes depends on how you say it ;].

[gaboru93]

[Cm]

:) Oh a dab of spam never hurts. That may be why we Americans are so fat? :lol:

[gaboru93]

well... maybe in their contry cheeseburgers are spammed... that's why.. :D :D :D

[gaboru93]

just a joke if any american is here...

[Jaz]

'Spam' is canned meat, Gaboru.

[gaboru93]

you were joking there right Jaz?:S

[Jaz]

Not at all. It's what Cm was referrering to: SPAM actually is a brand of canned meat. Monty Python's Flying Circus frequently used SPAM in their series.

[Corwin]

That was a delightful trip down memory lane!!

[dteowner]

Anyone else feel like we're throwing rocks at the short bus? I suppose anything that gives us a Python moment can't be all bad.

[Cm]

Ok, topic of why html's are blocked by sites between a friend and I so I come here to ask the pro's. I think it is to keep load speeds for the site faster. Why does the Watch block them? ;)

[Dhruin]

Mostly to keep the focus on the discussion and avoid crap. Speed is probably a very small consideration. Let me turn it around: why would someone want html enabled on a board?

[Cm]

You don't unless you want the visual spam right?

[chamr]

They aren't?

Of course they are! Well... except for the ruination thing, that is...

[Dhruin]

You don't unless you want the visual spam right?

That's they way I see it. You want to give your readers enough room to express their identity (hence we allow your own avatar, for example) but for us, the conversation should be the focus. Enabing html only encourages a visual assault that might be desirable on some boards because of the "look at me!!" factor but we don't want that.

Too often that really does end up feeling like a 'visual assault!'

:police:
Topic, ladies, topic.

[Wulf]

I agree dte, Corwin suggested elsewhere, a seperate beer topic/thread where members could get drunk to their hearts content. :party:

[Jaz]

Make one. Preferrably in OT! :)
