Still don't see why we don't have an everything goes subforum where Dread and Agent could work out their sexual tension towards each other.

It'd be a lot healthier for them to have an outlet for their urges instead of just getting a moderator to shout at them every time they bring it up.

Naah, I already made a promised to Lennard that he hard coded into his programming brain, that I won't troll anymore if they don't pick Agent. Damn it...

So you freely admit you troll this forum? Why don't you simply stop being an idiot?

On top of that, I find it a little funny that there needs to be (multiple) moderators for the like, 10 people that post here frequently.

Has it really gotten that bad? (dumb question)



As for you pac...

I'm just going to suggest dumb stuff like make sure you have the most current drivers for your hardware. Try the headset on another computer. Make sure it doesn't have a volume/mute button that's all the way down/on.

yada yada yada I tore my computer apart when Portal 2 came out trying to figure out why my friend couldn't hear me. Turns out I had it muted. I've always made fun of people who do that... not anymore (as much).
If you haven't noticed, I'm REALLY good at making a simple response into a wall of text.

In my opinion yes. Look at all the shit topics from the last few weeks. Then look at all the supposedly serious topics that got derailed after only like 3 replies. It might be the same persons who start derailing it or not, point is people actually bite and help derailing further which has annoyed me to no limits.

This forum is loose and we support that too, but things have gone out of control now. Off-topic stays in off-topic, keep your 4chan bullshit there, not in serious topics in the other sections.

Too true Lennard. Though I have to imagine some of it has to do with everyone just getting bored. We all come here (more or less) to see news about PS. Sure, we also like to participate in threads that have something going on in them, but mostly we all want to talk about PS when we get here. When there is months, or weeks, or whatever of no new content for us all to go, "It looks good but..." then we all have to do something crazy like... come up with other things to talk about. With people we don't rightly know. It gets boring.

You ever been in a room full of coworkers you know enough to remember their name, but not enough to strike up a worthwhile conversation? That's all of us. Some of us are the guy that starts doing racial jokes, some of us are the ones that keep talking about work, and others are the ones that just sit back and try to wait out the situation. Whichever one you think you are doesn't stop you from being stuck potentially making stupid small talk till someone trips onto their face and everyone turns into that person that goes, "Hey, remember when John tripped onto his face??"

I agree and you're all in your good right to do something in the absence of updates and topics, but please do so in off-topic. A community moderator is going to enforce that, by moving around topics, merging them.

By having someone else doing that for us (and not necessarily to run the ban-hammer as I don't think we will give that privilege to a moderator), we can focus on the important stuff: keeping PS running and at the same time the forum will be a nicer and safer place for new players/old vets.

Can we also do something about people always posting in Public Discussion of what the hell this project about?

People just go ahead and ask what is already there, you can even make it easier by blocking the goddamn Community button with a big ass arrow pointing to the "Media" section, and before they check all of that, then they can proceed to the forums?

As well as you guys have about 1700 people on this forum, and I am sure that's somehow uses bandwith to keep all of those people registered? Why not limit things to like, 10 days of being active and unless that person has a somekind of a note in their profile that they are away they can be excused?

I bet most of them are just bots... registered once and never logged on.
They should be deleted after X time. :-\

We do, occasionally.

DreadStunLock

No you don't. The last few weeks the amount only got higher rather than get smaller or even a lot smaller.

You're exaggerating. Worse yet, you expect the mods to delete topics that you consider "dumb" or to stop threads from moving in a direction that you don't like. That is not their purpose. Their purpose is to make sure that people follow the site rules, and there's no rule against creating topics that are distasteful to LennardF1989.

The banal topics and bantering between AgentX and DreadStunLock are exacerbated by the fact that there aren't many other posters, and there really isn't much to talk about that hasn't already been discussed to death -- this game has been in the making for over 5 years. The only thing left to do is for people to grovel at new models/animations, but even that gets old. If the forum were more active or had more to talk about, you probably wouldn't even notice those two and their alleged sexual tension.
