Yeah I get your side of the debate. Also, I didn't specifically mean that you don't know what it takes to be a mod, I meant a lot of people don't. Other than that, I see your side and it'll just be a clash of opinions if we continue this. I believe one thing and you another, perfectly normal. :) I think mods are very helpful and have a tough job. They get their job done, but at times it can be stressful. With some sub-forums being eliminated, I feel their job could be a little easier! That's all I'm saying. :wink: ---------------------------------------- I also see your side of the debate for moving the forum. If it were to be moved, I totally agree that mods should be assigned to the forum. That sounds like a great idea to me! Some people don't see this board, which is fully understandable, but it is sort of their fault. I mean I know this board is farther down on the index, thus, not many people venture too far down to see this forum, yet it is their own fault. For some people, they would see this forum and strive to make this forum a better place by posting suggestions and input, but for a lot of other people, they will just overlook it and go straight to their favorite forum. If you really wanted to find and help the boards with your input, you could find this forum just like you would with any other forum. You scroll past this while going to the off-topic forum, yet people still post on that. The ordering can affect the boards success, yet not greatly in my opinion. If anyone wanted to find this forum, you could. If it wasn't an interest, then they skip past it like any other forum that doesn't interest them. It's their choice in my opinion. I don't know if this has been done or not, but why can't we just make a sticky under announcements that explains each and every forum, in order, with what the forum concerns. You could put it right under thr Tip.It Forum guide. The forums guide touches the surface of what I am trying to create, so, that is not what I was thinking. :lol: It would explain all about each forum. If all the new users were to read that (which I know won't happen :lol: ) then it would eliminate a lot of problems and help them choose what forums interest them and what forums don't. It would help them know where to post what, and to use the search button first. All this could eliminate a lot of misplace threads which would be great! I would be happy to do this, in fact, I will take it upon myself to start this sticky since I suggested it, and post it if I finish. By doing so, it is entirely on the users choice if they did not see this forum or any other forum! It was their choice to skip the sticky, their choice to scroll past this board, all on their shoulders. If any of the Admins or Mods would like me to continue on this sticky I was talking about, please feel free to PM me and I will do so! Thanks! Devoted

I see. although, I still think they should be used, even to the mods of the hassle it is. How about besides just deleting the topic, and warning them, take action onto their account, if they aren't new users, and such. Because if the whining(not talking just about the mods) would stop about sub-forums, a lot could be down, and not so much would be restrained. Sub-forums aren't helpful in my opinion. Although it is personal preference, most people on the forum agree that some sub-forums are useless. The Help and Advice forum isn't as organised with sub-forums. That's one big problem with having sub-forums Skatedog. The sub-forums are never being used correctly, therefore, there is no point in their existance. You don't want mods spending all their time moving threads from the general forum to the correct sub-forum. That will put a heck of a lot of stress on them. I know this for a fact. Although it seems easy for someone to say that the mods should just move the posts, it's an incorrect assumption. For example, when I brought up the idea about the sub-forums changes in Help and Advice, I reported almost all of the out of place topics that belonged in a different sub-forum. Of course, the mods did their job and moved them to the correct sub-forum. Do you think if you were a mod though, you would want to move topics to a different sub-forum when 5 minutes later the kid may repost it due to no answer? I know that it would be annoying. A lot of people didn't learn when their topics got moved. Later on, they would incorrectly place their topics again. It's a lot of unnecessary work when you could eliminate the problem by eliminating the sub-forums in a lot of forums! ------------------------------------- On topic, The Sith, I believe that the area where this forum stands is perfectly fine. Anyone that has a well thought out suggestion will find this forum if they wish to share their opinion. I don't think that the placing of this forum is discouraging anybody from posting. It's not too hard to locate. The good thing about the placement is that you also don't get too many worthless suggestions. By putting more attention into this forum, you get a heck of a lot more suggestions. Some of these suggestions are very nice suggestions. The problem is, these are rare. I think it is rare to get a well thought out, prepared suggestion on this forum. By moving it, you may get more well thought out suggestions, but with it, there will be a lot of worthless, 2 responses topics. It's truly up to you, but I think this forum is great where it stands! Most of the people browsing this forum are mature, and because of that, you are getting great suggestions! For instance, since you did the Global Announcement, the public has been more inclined to visit this forum. Due to the increase in public, there has been a lot more suggestions. Like I said, some are very helpful, and then, there are some that just aren't too helpful. It's just what you think will benefit the forum best. I believe that the placement is good how it stands! Thanks! Devoted

:cry: :( We could have hunted together. :cry: Oh well, I know what you mean. I can't wait to get flying on that skill so I'll finally have the cape. :lol: RL has been slowing me down a lot lately! #-o

After a 3 day avacation to visit my family I'm back. I seriously need to start going. It feels like i've been at 76 for forever. So I'll be on later today and I'll be ready to hunt! :D

Sorry I haven't gotten much done. I have been busy with RL for awhile so haven't gotten much done, but I hope to get over this little bump and getting hunting like no other! :o

I totally agree with you! Like stated in my first post, user of the forums would put in their title "DON'T MOVE TO F2P." Why would they do this? Because in P2P they know that their subject would get more attention. But, the problem with this is that the person posting the topic knows it's in the wrong forum. He knows it along with a lot of other people. This leads to moderators having to do work to move the topics to a different place when it really isn't necessary. By merging the two forums, this problem would be solved!

Thanks I like it too! Okay thanks for your input! I am sort of a long ways away from then, and I have a lot of money to raise, but I am actually considering it. Construction is one of the skills I love and I hope some day to make it. Hopefully after 99 Hunt! \

PSST add this to make it 27. No one will notice. :-$ :^o Anyways, grats on the level! That cape is really awesome! One question I wanted to ask you about construction. Did you buy the planks pre-made or did you have your butler run them for you? I am thinking of maybe after 99 hunter going for it. :shock: Sell the chins and that's some money runecraft the rest. :shock: :shock: Anyways, so how you did it would be great to know. Also, is one way a lot cheaper than the other or faster than the other. Thanks! Congrats again!

I re-did the front page of the blog! I hope you guys like it!

Thanks Val! Good luck with Runecrafting! O:) Yeah, if you are still runecrafting by the time I'm done with 99 Hunter, I'll be back runecrafting again! I am going for some major cash. Maybe 99 prayer or something along those lines. I'm thinking about selling the chins instead of using them and then making the rest runecrafting but we'll see. By the way, I fell asleep last nighy early watching tv and I didn't get on at ALL! So 77 will be today and I am almost positive 78 is. This is taking longer than I though = but it may be because I haven't played much this last week. :notalk: =; Anyways thanks for the support expect 77 today for sure! 78 I am pretty sure if I remember to get on I will go til 4 in the morning to get that level, I'm already behind! :notalk: Thanks for the support!

I like all of the ideas The Sith. :wink: Anyways, I'll put my input in on each matter... General Help and Advice! By seperating the forums, it eliminates a lot of confusion throughout the boards. The mods will also have to do a lot less work! Also, by making the Help and Advice forums merged again, it will keep all the actualy "questions" on top, ones that are mature and well though out. The other questions that couldbe found within 5 seconds on the Tip.It main page would float to the bottom never to be seen again. Since the board has gone into subforums, there has been a decrease in the ammount of people wishing to post answers to everyones questions there. I believe this is because the Help and Advice at the moment is a little maze like, thus, some people don't wish to mess with the trouble if they are just trying to help someone! By eliminating the subforums, it will releave a lot of stress on the mods, and make it less intimidating to post there. It's a win win! :D Also, not so long ago I noticed that some people who couldn't get an answer in the correct subforum would post their same topic in the fornt page of help and Advice. Why? because it is rare to get a good answer in any of the subforums. The process is just too slow that many only go to the first page of Help and Advice, they don't bother to go any furthur. ------------------------------------------------------------ General P2P and F2P board MERGE Once again, the most popular threads will stay on top, the other threads that are useless will float to the bottom and at a quick pace. By combining the two, you create less work for mods once again! They don't have to flip through the two every now in then to sort out all the bad topics. The mods also won't have to switch back and forth between the two forums, it's all right there! I have also seen people specifically post things in General P2P that belong in the General section. In their title they put, "KEEP IN P2P." They knew it was in the wrong section, but to get more publicity, they took the risk. Because of this "risk", the mods have to do a lot of extra work locking or moving threads to where they properly belong due to people wanting to see some limelight! ----------------------------------------------------- Clues Forum The Clues forum is just a tadbit out of date. It's rare to good real discussion going on there, and when it is, it would be better suited in the General sections instead. This is because the threads in there show discussion, nothing that's any different than any other topic in the General forums. Clues should just move right on into the General forum! PS Feel free to lock my thread concerning this the Sith so it eliminates some confusion! Thanks! :D Devoted12

76 Hunter! I am going to force myself to get to 77 hunter tonight and maybe as close to 78 as I can go. :wall: I have been inspired because of Tripsis's party to get a 99! So, here I am hunting my heart out. :lol:

No problem. :) By the way, you can just call me Devoted now. You don't have to put the dashes or number in lol. \

Thanks for the Grats I believe the most I have caught is about 240 an hour. I don't know if that's good or bad but I think it's pretty good.

P-P-P-P PARTAYYY I will try to definetely make it! I want to see that b-e-a-utiful house of yours. :wink: You may also want to add this up on your page to stop the confusion. :wink: [url=http://countdown.pending.be/1504/][img=http://sigs.pending.be/001/1504.jpeg][/url] It doesn't count down while you look at it but if you refresh or re-click the link, it will show the correct time. It will be very helpful I think.
