Quote:There are not many posts that "break the rules." Yeah, you're right. But if you actually read the posts, they are not enjoyable at all. Moderation won't fix this at all. Encouraging updates will. You should know this stuff, right?
Yes I agree.
And not a lot of stuff takes just 5 mins to add. At least stuff I actually want here.
A site can be like a fine wine. It takes time to mature and the longer you allow the aging process the better. The natural growth of this site is great. We're doing 80% more traffic than one year ago. Very reasonable growth.
 I am here to rescue you.
This is Support Forums not Support PMs. Do not PM me for support unless it's private and site related.

Yes traffic, but the quality of the site has dropped by the same amount...

The traffic you're gaining is fine, but it's just users spamming there way to the 100 posts for the feather, I believe if you was to make an announcement saying if they are to spam or post LQ posts to get there 100 posts, that they wont be awarded with nothing but a ban, that should hopefully cut down the spam.
Also, now you've removed the inactive staff, what are you going to do now? Ace has gone and he's the only good member I can think of, I'm sure Fragma can't handle it on his own, and you've got 95% of your time held up by HF.
Laugh would be an okay member, if he didn't constantly call me, and others a retard.

There is certain people who spam for it and if they do they don't even end up getting it, so they learn for their mistakes.

Welcome ONE-LINER, your words are noted... If you would kind take the time to improve your quality before posting, you would do us all a favor, thank you for being a proof...

Not really if I would of spammed for the award and I'd have it by now.
I don't come on the forum often because of the same reason, your quick to judge eh? you need to actually check people before you just target them because they signed up to the site, sometimes these kind of comments drive people away and here you are complaining about people leaving.

That analogy works to an extent. With a forum eventually people get bored, unlike with wine it simply tastes better.
And, you can easily add things that take 5 minutes. They may not be "what you want," but simply accepting groups, creating group forums, handing out awards, implementing simple features/plugins, are all things that will bring people back and posting. Most people will agree when I say they'd rather come online to see you post an Announcement with a simple update every three days than a big one every 6 months.
Also to Breshie, I don't have an issue with you...you're just the prime example of a person who is simply unable to grasp and comprehend basic concepts. I refer to them as retards, sorry for the incorrect word usage.

None of your posts are useful, I wasted my time to check out your 15 posts, I found nothing of use...

It's nice to see you're back Gaijin, I've never seen you here before, but you look like a great member. 
I'm going to talk to Ace later on and see If I can get him back, now Omni seems to be doing something, I doubt he'll have a problem with it.
