| actually, I was thinking something like this: http://sporistics.atomicday.net/?p=asset:500670956779 see how you can download it directly from the site? I'm not sure how, but I was wondering if there was someway we could do that here, only people could post the download button.
but great idea with the new section. you'll go far kid ;) | |

| Wasn't the idea to generalize the sub-forums?
If I were you 1) Get rid of the Rules section 2) Merge the 3 topics that were in there, into one topic 3) Move the complete list of all rules to the "GAC Official stuff" section and sticky. 4) Delete the "The Rules" announcement.
But that's just a little idea. I imagine you'd want to concentrate on the more important things... | |

| Wow... I've missed a lot today.
Anyway, the thing with the banner definitely needs to be fixed. There's very little point in having the new banner if it only shows up sometimes.
And also, I don't approve of the making of new sections... but whatever works for you, I guess. It may turn out to be a good thing. But one suggestion I have is to get rid of the unnecessary threads, now that there are new ones. And I think the Adventure Trailer section is completely unnecessary in the first place. | |

- Just added the "adventure corner" The dedicated adventure section, and is split up into four sections:
1: Trailers, it's around to show off trailers of your adventures. Duh.
2: Advice, if you have advice or need advice about your adventures and the adventures of others. Leave them here.
3: Prop requests, If you need a creature, building, or anything else for your adventure, or are willing to fill out prop requests. Post here.
4: Everything else, for anything not mentioned above
If you need anything changed. Tell me.
-Hutch Great! But like Gelo said, the trailer section seems a bit.. Uneccesary. | |

| Now that my old thread (A better GAC) has been replaced by this one, I would like to request that Hutch or camel please lock it and move it to the archive.
ALSO: I think the Adventure Trailer section should be replaced with an Adventure Testing section. | |

| Doing this to keep you guys posted. Updates that I will post each week for changes, and other forum related things. Here it is for this week:
-Adventure section added, sections include adventure testing, prop requests, advice, and anything else
-Moved elections to locked archive
-Still considering to give elite advisors limited mod powers
-Gave Dark_Heroics a much deserved modship. Please congratulate him.
-Going to start "Generalizing" sub-forums once I get the OK from cam
-Still writing this update
These are the most significant things that I have either done, or thinking of doing this week. And hopefully I will continue to keep you guys updated.

| Well, since this is the Forum Suggestions thread here's some suggestions:
1. I think the enemys feature should be removed. I don't know what Camel was thinking, having enemys can never be a good thing.
2. Since there's an Off Topic Penalties system I think there should also be one for Spam. If you ever spam a thread (Inculding Off-Topic Thread.) or the chatbox you get one point. If you ever spam something more inportant (I.E: GAC Offical Stuff) they get 2 points.
3. It still says Shardna's an Admin. You really need to fix that.

| !: Gamer, I think that's a mandatory setting on the forumotion, so we can't change that.
2: Possibly. I'll take that into consideration.
3: I believe I changed that, but I guess not. It's done now
Thanks for the feedback

| Another thing, I think the "Elite Advisors" and the "Moderators" name colors and too simliar. Yes, I know Mods are white and advisors are gray but still, they do look pretty similar. Or maybe it's just me.. But anyway, I vote that one of the two groups colors get changed!
EDIT: Some other things I forgot to say:
1. I think shadow and Drago should be demoted from being a mod. As neither go on GAC anymore. And I doubt they will ever return. Specially shadow as they have only posted 3 times!
2. I also think that people that never ever go on GAC shouldn't have high ranks (I.E. MaxTheCrook - Elite Advisor.) as they will proberley never post. |

I personally think that the Elite Advisor and Mod colors are just fine as they are. But I do agree that shadow and Drago should be demoted from Mod position, at least until they start posting again. | |

| Yes Gamer, I understand. Drago is already gone and shadow is gone for good reason. Already done. But please tell me something I wasn't going to do in the first place. Gets kind of annoying.
P.S. Elite advisors should expect to have chat moderation powers soon. Just about ready to implement it.

-Hutch Good idea. But they should not be able to ban someone in the chat. (In my opinion) | |

| Trust me glass, I'm not an idiot.
*Ahem*
All elite Advisors. You are some of our best and trusted members. In order to regulate the chat more effectively, you will be granted chatmodding powers.
This means you can now clear messages, and kick users if they prove to be troublesome. However. You can not ban anyone. That right is moderator only.
And also, be careful. If cam or myself, or any other moderator hears about you abusing your powers. They will be IMMEDIATELY revoked, and a demotion is a possibility.
And aside from that. Congratulations, and enjoy your new powers.
-Hutch
P.S. If you didn't know the commands:
/clear is to clear message history (only if the chat is laggy) /kick to remove the user from the chatbox (Only to be used if the user is causing trouble, or constantly annoying others. | |
