There could probably be members besides mods who also do the approving. (Picked by the mods of course.)

The whole thing would take a while to sort out and set up, but ultimately I think the decision relies with Jeremey

I don't think it's a serious possibility.

It was just an idea. I was just getting sick of seeing the same threads all the time.

:)

We all are.

Humor99 suggested an idea to Jeremy that would prevent threads with the same title being made, and Jeremy basically said that it would be such an extensive project that it would be impractical. The project would also have to be redone with each new version of vBulletin.

Your idea, while a good idea, will more than likely not be used. The idea is good. A moderation queue (which should be enabled in the Lessons & Articles forum) would prevent any illegal threads from being made, but if there was a period of time where no mod was online, the site would just be terribly boring.

I personally think that the moderation in the Rock & Metal forum is at an all-time best. We have four, dedicated mods paying a great deal of attention to this part of the forum. We're also a close community. The R&M regulars are some of my favorites. :)

Keep the suggestions coming. They're appreciated.

How about randomly terrorising the noobs by banning them all for a day, so that they scramble to find out why they were banned, and hence read the rules. :p

Hahaha

/starts banning

The banning would never cease.

And he stood upon the hill. I saw that bloody ban stick held firmly at his side. His burning eyes bored into mine as the dark clouds above his head thundered and stormed. The smell of ban lay all around me, hovering above the fields of endless noobs. I knew I was in the prescence of the one they call "307... random numbers.. uh.. Jenny?" :p

Haha, That's when the ban button in the Thread Tools or where ever would help.

This should have been asked in the music recommendation thread.

Wrong forum


Also you people need to fix the URL's in the rules section, very messy...

Got those threads. And the links are all fine, it's just that [url=]whatever[/url] tags have been disabled.

I'm sure you have some perfectly logical explanation, but I want to enquire as to why games are not allowed. Not just any games, but music related. I have seen this on other forums, for example....Lyric Thread..in this you would post some known lyrics and whatever letter it ends on, say the last word is "destructioN", the next set of lyrics should begin with N. I had a rock riddle game thread in song and lyric briefly (before everyones riddles got too obscure, although I may revive it.) Anyway, I'm just curious.

Well I know the links are fine, just really messy...

And also game threads are pointless even if they are music related. They are just there for noobs to come in and post pointless things or people use it as a circle jerk thread to boast there post count. They are mindless and are not needed.

Well, yeah, it's messy, but it's just that the tags are disabled that's the problem.

I think the rule's essentially there because there was a time when there'd be two or three threads going at once with names like "The Guitarist Game!", "The Metal Game!", etc. And all these "games" consisted of was saying which of the two metal bands/singers/guitarists/bassists/etc the posted above you had posted, and then posting your own two for the guy below you. So you'd get pages and pages and pages and pages of;

Go!
Jimmy Page vs John Petrucci

Petrucci
Iommi vs Kerry King

Iommi
James Hetfield vs Dave Mustaine

Hetfield
Petrucci vs CC DeVille

Dude, we just had Petrucci!!! Choose different people.

ANyway, Petrucci.
Petrucci vs Jason Becker

Becker *lots of reasoning*
Jerry Garcia vs Phil Lesh [/Badmoon]

Who teh ****, I ain't heard of them. I'll just say Petrucci.
Petrucci vs Mustaine

For ****s sake choose different guys.

**** **** shut up *******. PETRCCUII!

..

And so on. For two thousand posts. With only a handful of people (like Badmoon) actually coming up with anything original, or justifying their choices at all. Basically spam threads.

If you come up with something original, which requires actual brainpower to some degree, which would actually be fun and reasonably challenging, and not of a postcount ++ nature, I think it could be allowed. I'd go for it, anyway, don't know about the others.

The only original game thread I can remember was started by JMetallica, and sank faster than a stone because none of the noobs could handle it. In my experience, game threads which require thought scare away people who only want to postcount ++ themselves.

Right then, have a look if you would in my posts or threads, if you are so inclined and take a peek at the thread entitled "rock riddles"...I thought it was perhaps more suited for song and lyric, since it required actual clue and riddle composition...but I wonder if it might be better suited for rock forum. Can it be moved? Do I really care that much? Meh.

*I would've revived it long ago, if I could suss the last riddle :confused: *
