Q. Why does my scroll wheel keep breaking on here??
A. Because Chrome sucks. It'll be fixed when we switch forums. [/B]
Q. When should I use the report function?
A. Please report posts that break [URL="https://facepunch.com/fp_rules.php"]the rules[/URL] of the forum and fit into the specific categories listed on the report button. We're currently considering re-implementing a free text box. Until this is decided, please don't just press any old button. [URL="https://facepunch.com/showgroups.php"]Contact me, or somebody with a green name.[/URL]
Q. Can I become a moderator?
A. We recruit only when we identify a gap in our coverage. We will make a separate thread announcing this. The selection process usually takes between 2 weeks and 2 months. If you would like to stand out as a candidate, you could produce original content and contribute in a positive manner.
Q. Will Camp Facepunch be coming back now that Hezzy is back?
A. No. Feel free to organise your own events though!
Q. Why isn't Tudd banned yet?
A. He posts legitimate content. Having a differing opinion doesn't mean that he should be banned.
Q. Do you guys know if garry is enacting garry's birthday this year?
A. It's random! Only the g-man himself knows.
Q. Do moderators have a list of people who are ban on sight?
A. Yes. It consists of Tudd and only Tudd. Unfortunately we all have him on our ignore list. Sorry not sorry.
Q. Please could you change my username?
A. No, unless there is a really good reason why it needs changing. Please do not PM me about it.
Q. Will you be adding a vid.me tag?
A. Yes, put the video ID inside the [vidme] tags
Q. Please can you add Twitch tags?
A. No problem fam, use [twitchan] with the channel name and [twitch] with the clip ID
Q. Can I get Gold status? I have a bunch of alt accounts around, across these I hit the postcount requirement and my main hits the date requirement.
A. Maybe. If you're not a shitheel who got banned constantly I might consider it. Send me a PM from all the accounts in question with the name of the account you'd like to be upgraded.
Q. Can I get Gold anyway?
A. Do something cool for FP and I will think about it

Q. Will the old sections come back?
A. There are no plans for this at the moment. Please feel free to discuss this in the thread if you feel passionate about it.
Q. Shouldn't Polidicks be star rating only?
A. I don't have access to the FTP so I can't change this. If I was able to, Sensationalist Headlines would go back to having full ratings and Polidicks would only have agree / disagree.[/QUOTE]
These are both outdated now right?

How come thread #760000 is the oldest one that works?
[QUOTE=Daniel Smith;52158869]How come thread #760000 is the oldest one that works?[/QUOTE]
That's probably the arbitrary number that garry decided to delete all posts before when he got rid of 4+ years of them from the archive

Are twitch videos (not clips) embeddable?
[QUOTE=Kiwi;52159636][url]https://facepunch.com/misc.php?do=bbcode[/url][/QUOTE]
Excuse me I'm making a demand in the form of a question here
[QUOTE=Ott;52159664][noparse][twitchan][url]https://www.twitch.tv/videos/138527156[/url][/twitchan][/noparse][/QUOTE]
the stop_parse option in vBulletin for bbcode exists for a reason, otherwise it does this.

Why was [URL="https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1562130&p=52162780"]this thread[/URL] closed? The OP had a highly suspect source but he and others(a mod no less) later delivered legit sources. Ban him for the tabloid shit sure but why kill the discussion others were having?

Because he was literally just warned about posting suspect sources.
He PMed me earlier complaining about BDA banning people for posting certain sources but didn't link to the thread in question so I wasn't able to give any advice. I suspect this was after he was warned so he's probably not taken anything on board.
Feel free to remake the thread using the correct sources. Remember to comply with the guidelines in the sticky.
can we have a streamable embed pls
[QUOTE=Ezhik;52164089]can we have a streamable embed pls[/QUOTE]
Possible, would just mean using the same setup for twitch but changing the url to use [url]https://streamable.com/s/idhere[/url] instead
