Ransom

Well this is locked nobody bothers reading the whole thread and its been proven that there is not a good way (at least it seems) to do it.

would be cool I guess... but I never model stuff

Well.. I guess thats what you get if you're a moderator. I mean what do we do? Not say a thing and just do stuff to people's threads? ...oh btw OMG!1!11!1 +1 POST HOLY CRAP Hes been here almost 3 years, you haven't been here almost 3 months. Thats the real reason.

There actually was a topic about skins before, you can make one and just start a new topic if you wish. If its good it will get feedback. It would probably be another choice besides this and those other 2 skins. Yes the policies are a little bit scratchy since the part of the team that does the forums are mostly 2nd-language English, though it is still very good. Can use some work though. Nice resume.

100,000 lines.. wow this is going to be great for you guys if it works out. I mean... 100,000+ lines modification made by you and some other people... looks great on an application.

Thanks guys... this was just an idea I came up with and everything worked out how I thought it would. Thanks rebel/madboy for heavily supporting this and credit IJs for making the global button link. ps.. thx blokker/IJs for letting me bug you about this so much

Okay the next idea was done.. so its here! Global button to contact all moderators. Enjoy everyone.

Yes, there are not many candidates right now, but I came up with this idea which will help greatly. However, you will probably see at least 1 or 2 new moderators before the blue is released.

UPDATED: http://forum.mtavc.com/viewtopic.php?t=10965 Read all about it here Your chances of moderator response should be 100% now.

Bishop, I am trying to explain to you that we have been letting things get way too out of hand. We KNEW it was happening, but its not all our faults. Noone even bothered pm'ing about spam. Obviously you guys were okay with it thinking noone was going to get in trouble. So that is why gang threads are involved. We agreed this was the best way to get attention, not simply posting "do not spam", but instead taking the gang threads away and forcing people to read these messages. We hope we can stop spam this time.. with the help of you and others. A simple pm and we can put a stop to things when they get out of hand. That doesn't mean come yelling when theres 1 post, but when these chain-linked fighting posts start coming together, tell us. The sooner the better. If noone still bothers to tell us anything, well this will probably happen again, but for real. We will do our best to monitor the forum not using quick-fix tactics, but its extremely hard with 4 people. If you are in charge of your gang you don't need to stay on their ass, just make sure they don't get out of control. Lastly, I want to say thank you for actually not handling this like a child like most of the others have. I have thought that you have been quite a good character (you are mostly legit posts besides responding to some deathb flames) and perhaps you can help us (and your thread especially) by being a mod someday.

Oh my.. without a car in good range I would need to /kill myself.

Okay I'm not going to quote that for space sake, but heres my answers: Look again, Doons thread is gone too, it wasn't a priority since it was a dead thread. Only the top half of the threads are active anyways. This is nothing to do about boredom, spamming was getting out of hand. People know the mods are gone except for a select few so some (including vetern players) just went berserk on spam. I don't know what random acts refers to. Nobodys done anything about the spam so we finally talked and agreed to get the message across (again) to stop spamming. It goes beyond just spammers, then the gang members go "please dont post here anymore" and then they reply with something stupid and before you know it you've jumped on the spam train. This board has 9000+ registered users (yes I know not ALL active). Theres 4 mods. Do the math. We are not going to live on this forum. Our job is even harder to do with some mod functions being broken. However, as I said above, the major spammers have been dealt with. The rest of the spammers, well this is the warning thread. Thats pretty much dealing with every spammer. You want to know what you can do? Instead of having people start spamming by stupid replies to spam, PM the mods and we will take care of it. I'm assuming thats the only kind of spam you are talking about that you can't control. You do have authority over your own gang members. The main thing I want people to get through their minds is that they need to come to us, not the other way around. Theres just simply not enough man power. If you dont and things get out of hand... well things like this happen. Like I said above, mods that will actually get things taken care of for sure: myself, blackdragon, madboy, rebel. You won't get any action from the other inactive mods. This post count thing is so ridiculous, I wonder how many people would leave if we just got rid of that thing.

I really dont know what you and the other cranky vets are on (mostly defiant ULK/KFC and their past members, what a surprise)... plenty of people are still posting here. It wasn't a mind change because of these posts claiming we just make these forums worse, we decided to use this as a warning in the beginning, we're not like fu*king mrbump. If you don't believe me, ask KFG, he has a pm from yesterday where I secretly told him what was actually happening so he wouldn't flip out anymore than he already was starting to. This isn't going to turn into some annoying KFC, ULK, etc. forums. It is total disorder. Hundreds of useless posts and topics. This isn't going to turn into a 10 year old playground forum. Some of the major spammer's spam posts have been taken away, so to the major spammers: you're not geting away with this just because the threads aren't gone and you better watch your spam posting.

Its not like the second you spam we are going to put you to the axe, but just don't spam. If ANY gang is having a problem with a spammer or someone they are tired of lingering in their thread, PM the active moderators (rebel, blackdragon, madboy, myself)

Alright too many people are blowing their tops... I don't know whats so unfair. Every gang should know not to spam, but it happened over and over again. Yes, some was because of some major spammers and if they do it again they will be dealt with accordingly. Now, don't be so quick to judge the moderators. We are NOT actually deleting any threads except FKU (because of massive spam). This was the only way we could QUICKLY get everyones attention and give this message: DO NOT SPAM ANYMORE. We will delete threads as a last ditch effort but we will use other methods if we can get the same message across easier. The threads will be back tomorrow (including FKU thread locked and then to be deleted in a few days). The 40 page rule will only be in effect for gang threads that have spammed way too much. It seems KFC has done a moderate job of keeping it down, but it could still be much better.

We actually had a talk about that, sorry, I know we should have done something, theres just not many mods these days and we have things to do, so we are going to have to start doing things in mass, deleting threads instead of 5 pages of spam and so forth. Its gone, feel free to restart, and actually say that they cannot say good luck again. If they do tell me and theres gonna be trouble.

Much time was not spent deleting, only the active threads with spam were the major candidates we have moved. If you see something you think should also go, post it here. Like I said we're not going to trudge through pages and pages deleting. Waste of our time. ALL of the threads that have been moved (NOT DELETED YET SO YOU CAN STILL GET INFO) have had spam from the members and if ULK wants to deny that, I'll be more than happy to bring up examples. Something had to be done before things got out of control. Two pages of full spam on 2 gang topics and plenty more on others. The new people need to obey the rules. As for the gang threads over 40 pages, thats just a rule we made to prevent posting merely for post count. Its for your gang discussion, not post count. Lastly, if someone spams your gang thread you need to tell us, not reply with something equally stupid (which was the case most of the time).

Some gangs have gone into complete spamming mode and we don't feel like deleting stuff 1 by 1, so we agreed that its appropriate to remove some of these threads as a lesson. DO NOT SPAM. We will not spend hours cleaning up your crap. If you have reason to think your gang thread deserves not to be deleted, say so here. Otherwise, its going to be deleted in a few days. For now they are hidden. Also, the 40 pages rule is still in effect. So those over 40 pages, start a new thread.

With all the tricks you can pull with a stubby (especially just some moderate lag), its hard to say m60 is even a challenge for stubby unless you are out of reaching ditance (ie building top), but then they will just hide and you will most likely not get a kill anyways. The biggest problem is so many people use it and to even attempt to get over to the robber to attack with another spawn takes time and effort, then you usually get knocked down and killed anyways. The best thing you can do right now is bring a bunch of cheap weapons (especially grenades for grenade glitchers). Then when you die, they keep spreading and increasing in amount.

U.S. Pilot: Roger that... dropping gay bomb now Officer: Report to the front line NOW! Soldier: Well sir... are you sure you don't want me to... stick around Officer: I said NOW DAMNIT Soldier: Oooh real freaky naughty... are you a naughty freak? hmmm Officer/Soldier: Officer: OH MY GOD the enemy is invading the command center! Officer: DAMN THE GAY BOMB!

hehe 25 views and no responses.. I guess its awkward enough huh

Then they just ask again and the admin has no idea... or ask for alot at the same time with changed ip. Besides what server runner would use that system? Way too much work. edit: Unless someone thinks of a form that requires somewhat unique information and not a snap to fill out to get on a server (html page, registered name is logged by a server/needed to get on the server), that idea is dead.

Hmmm, never knew that. I woulda used it I had to make my own (basically the exact same) but I coded it into the scm. It was to test my stunt ramps much quicker (combined with PCJ600 spawn button).

Its alive... you'll have to take my word for it. (Feel free to ponder)

For christs sake what is the deal with gg deathb? Its like the next awful trend after "laugh".
