Hope you 4 had good run.. :)

Yeah, but this has been along time coming now if only would put an end to those "PhotoShop *insert picture here*" topics the BBS would be 30 extra percent spam free.

Yup, agrees.

I've just got my temporary mod email public in my profile, most of you know I frequent C & C as well. So if you see a problem, feel free to report it to me. But Maus is right, you have to police your own stuff, and if you're a regular of C & C, then you have a responsibility to get a hold of someone with power to either help you police, or take care of crappy threads. I'm just as unhappy with the way C & C becomes spammy as much as the rest of you, that's why I'm trying to be like ramagi and police it a little bit more when I'm here.

You can olso say popular, I meant the sig which are not one of a kind, the common sigs, like carmelhadinosaur's Lvl. sigs, cybex's the simsons sigs etc.

I think that the sig threads in the general forum offer the best sigs there are, if they weren't, do you think so many people would get a sig that everyone has?

Thaat's what I thought. As a side note, you need to get an up-to-date transalting dictionary. We haven't used 'vulgar' like that since the 1800's. :)

Thanks, avie, for backing me up. I remember I banned a couple of people for 'flaming' in a thread, and it turned out they were just joking, when I was first modded. If we aren't part of a crew, we don't know the dynamic of the group that inhabits a crew. Contrary to popular belief, we mods do not read every single thread, nor do we now of all the petty tiffs and dramas y'all got going on. You can't expect the entire mod crew to mod your section. ramagi does the most there. I only help a bit. She's fair, yet unyielding, and I give her props for that. However, I'm sure she'd like more help. And that's where the 'leaders' and 'presidents' step in. RUN YOUR CREW CORRECTLY. As I said, you guys know which of us read C+C regularly......

No. There are too many quality ratings threads out there today. Just recently we had three ratings threads where they were interactive and the people actually actively respond to the thread at hand.

Plus Zerok's thread is sexy in it's most extreme form. (Tons of good conversation going on in there, legitimate requests abound, obscene rating usually lasting two pages). Oh, and finally there aren't rating threads in other forums that offer the same service. yet, anyway.

Only thing I can think of that sucks is that SadicSchoolGirl never responded to her review.

Oh, and Zerok: chances are 0. :-(

Woah, 5 pages. Time to squeeze my otherwise now useless thoughts on this. While I understand your reasoning for getting rid of sig topics, I think this is a great example of a few apples spoiling the bunch. When you say that 99.5% of sig topics were terrible, I think you're basing that off of your entire opinion. Of course if you don't make a request, then you usually don't think the sigs are any good, but that's not the same opinion of the people who do make requests. Second, the option of making sigs in the ASM, SMG, or BSM is not going to make anything easier. I've surfed through those topics for a bit while I was banned this weekend, and it was otherwise ard to find requests and make sure 3 or 4 other people were already working on them. I think you'll see a lot of people getting undercutted when it comes to that. Also, the clubs leave the option of themed sigs out. Of course, I was preparing to make a series of Family Guy sigs with like 30 characters, but I guess i'll just delete all the templates/characters now. So while I see that you're attempting to lessen the burden of sig topic floods in general, I honestly think this is only a decision to convience your work so that you don't have to lok over more topics. As for the person who sid they wanted to also get rid of Photoshop topics, what you really need to get rid of is MS Paint, which is queering up most topics/contests. But of course I've petitioned numerous times for an image forum, but whatever.

Also in an up-to-date dictionary have these translations, I use the Oxford dictionary, but I will know to use common for the next time.

Its okay Maus. I still feel your love, even though it hurts me sometimes on the inside when my topics get locked. :'(

I guess banning sig threads does make sense. Most of the "I'll make you a sig" thread are crap. But boredom kills me and I need to vent sometimes. Oh well. CHEERS.

Sounds like someone had a fun night.

I didn't see this thread up before. That's why I was puzzled when I started to see locked sig making threads. MMmm does'nt really effect me in any way.

Shit- I feel like such a dumbass. I've just been directed to this thread after inquiring about - "Eh, why no sig making?". Well, I guess in March when this rule was originally enforced I was kinda busy (with college and all) so I apologise if I missed it and my sig making thread ignored it and pissed people off.
