Deejaye

I think you got my points mixed up, Xela. I said that an OP has always has the ability to request their thread to be locked, so you saying this: is redundant, because they can already do this. All this is is a difference in moderation style. In my personal opinion, I would rather a thread die in the depths of OT and maybe be necro'd every now and then rather than the last 20 pages of OT's threads be filled with locked threads that no one can post in.

An OP of a thread could request a lock regardless - OP's have always been able to request their threads locked, so Xela, your point seems kinda redundant ): Also, you guys need to get out of the mentality of locking threads/disabling future discussion. : p Like i said before, just let the thread die, which happens plenty of times. this allows future people to rebring up discussion without having to create a new thread.

psh stop playing jayejaye, my heart is taken by the one and only lizard man 8)

i used to have a gold mine of hilarious screenshots, unfortunately they died when i deleted my pokemmo folder

Not too into the idea, but that's probably because I talked to Squirtle and he said I'd become the new OT mod after it reopened. [spoiler]idk if i was allowed to even say that but o well i'm not good at keeping secrets[/spoiler] Probably any thread that has at least 10-20+ pages. Stuff that was being posted in actively. make sure to purge all of king's threads. and, of course, the ultimate debate because that's my only off topic thread and all hail deejaye's amazing threads. Generally towards the end of discussion, when everyone's said their shit, this happens. Honestly, if you just let it run its course and hide the worst posts if it really calls for it and let the thread die. Serious debate threads generally don't last long because when you look at it, all that can be said about the topic has already been said.

we watched american sniper tonight, does that make me super american

Glad to see you drawing again, Ploegy. (:

1. I don't draw things the moment someone posts a request. 2. Requests =/= guaranteed to get drawn. 3. Entitlement makes me less likely to draw a request. I've been hanging out with my boyfriend who isn't someone I see on a daily basis, so im enjoying my time with him. Also when I make a post, Im probably on my phone since I mostly browse forums from my phone.

I wish you guys would make some form of communication that did not include hiding all our posts asking when OT is open. This is just another example of how you guys are poor at communicating - instead of saying "Sorry, it may take a week or two," you try to avoid the question and pretend it never really existed.

Looks good, will make a better critique when I am at my computer heiman. 8)

its her bow's drawstring or whatever it would be called its too hard sry

its too triggering for me

oh, sorry i thought you asked me to draw you being bullied [spoiler]:^)[/spoiler] i like to do that with art, looking at a sketch to the finished product is always a ":')" moment for me

C4D flows well with the render, good use of blur, and lots and lots of good. (: Only thing that bugs me is the text placement - I think if it was a little more to the left so it looks centered in the sky/background, it'd look better but still a+ heimann, you've gotten guud

why [spoiler]i thought it was an image that wasn't loading[/spoiler] edit: nvm it is an image that isn't loading for me for some reason

Herman it's time to make a sig contest

I wonder how much longer until ot reopens

Been thinking about it and I don't even know what they could alter about the off topic rules to 'make it better' ? The rules are pretty...standard. Like a lot of people said, I feel like moderation needs to ease up. So this is pretty much my suggestion for the future off topic moderator: Don't lock threads for the reason "things might go south," but focus on subverting it from going south. Hide the worst posts. Not every post that's hidden deserves to be hidden - just because a poster's opinion is invalid in your eyes, it shouldn't necessarily be hidden. if you think they're looking stupid, let them look stupid. maybe that's harsh but lMFAO they're posting for the public to see, so obvs they're ok with the consequences that people might think they're fucking stupid or an asshole. If you feel a thread's topic is breaking a rule, work with the OP so that it is appropriate. Back when Volpi made the "Noobs say the darnest things" thread, I moderated the section he posted it in, and OK'd it as long as screenshots blurred usernames. In Trade Corner, when I closed people's threads because they had more than 1 or whatever reason, I PM'd them to let them know why and if they needed me to unlock it, I would. Try to find a solution that will keep the thread open rather than locking it because that's the easy way out! Don't try to scrutinize something to decide if it's shitposting/deserves being hidden - that's a horrible mindset to have as a moderator. Focus more on allowing users to moderate themselves. Keep an open door (er, PM box?) and make sure to reply to PMs or questions. If you get criticized, don't respond like you're being attacked, instead say "ok" and take it in consideration And probably the best suggestion - try to be part of the OT community. You'll be more accepted if you join in the posters' jokes. :^) i prob had more to say but i wanna cuddle iwth plizard bye nerds :^)
