[QUOTE=Ori Child;22167201]So, it seems that posting in sections of facepunch that are no longer used by most members (because they don't know they exist or are just outdated) is now a bannable offence :ohdear:
If post count's apparently not a big deal, then why ban people for posting in these defunct sections?
It's not doing any harm except boosting the posters e-ego.
(not too sure about my wording of that)[/QUOTE]
You are forgetting about the new gold member system. They want to whore post count and never post again until they are gold. This was the reason post count in FT was disabled.

Also, mods: Do you like your current position? Do you like being a FP moderator?
What happened to Gwilty? He was soooo coooool.
I forgot, why is there a limit of posts on threads?
It was so epic back then when threads had 10000 and more posts...
Was the database too weak or what was the reason?

Performane reasons, having to pick through 10000 posts for the 40 on page 67 takes a toll on the db server.

Hmm... yeah there is that
Why has the site been going down about once a day for the last week?

I'm guessing that it's a problem with his provider. Since we couldn't access garry.tv or garrysmod.org either
[QUOTE=Linµx;22207577]I'm guessing that it's a problem with his provider. Since we couldn't access garry.tv or garrysmod.org either[/QUOTE]
garry has his own server (MARGE) at his office. So essentially its a problem with him.
Do you get banned if you admitted you pirated a game, then buy it one week after you pirated it?
We don't need to know that you pirated a game, don't mention it here.
I understand why editing in RC is disabled, but what about News node?

What happens if it's on topic?
How did smartness work?
Why did you get rid of it?
[QUOTE=-TRASE-;22211200]I understand why editing in RC is disabled, but what about News node?[/QUOTE]
There was an exploit or something about editing in the NN, but I can't exactly remember the details

[QUOTE=Mokkan13;22211341]How did smartness work?
Why did you get rid of it?[/QUOTE]
Smartness worked by detecting words that are misspelled and taking away smartness, which was basically your post count. Every time you misspelled a word, you lost 26 smartness. Lose enough smartness and you get banned. You CAN edit your post to retrieve lost smartness.
I'm not exactly sure on why it was removed, however.
[QUOTE=elitehakor;22211932]There was an exploit or something about editing in the NN, but I can't exactly remember the details[/QUOTE]
I believe (May be wrong about this) that there was a bug in the coding that people could use to mess up other peoples' systems, although I heard that quite a while ago.
Is the office cam off-line because of internet usage of something?
It's offline because FP was using up a huge amount of bandwidth viewing it, there was something like over a hundred people viewing at one point when it was up.
Or maybe Garry doesn't like random people watching his back all day. I wouldn't.
Can we please get the quizzes to use forums again like we had in 2006? That would really keep a large majority of the retards out.
What happened to the subforums in the video game section?

You missed the thread. Hezzy was talking about removing it.

I saw the thread, I was just wondering WHY he was removing it. It's pretty clear it's something the community doesn't want at this point.

Majority of thread posts ruled to remove it.

No..
Garry wanted them gone. Hezzy along with about a 4/5ths majority wanted them there, but Garry's word is law.

lol wrong thread. I was talking about the GMF one.
Ahh I see that, must have missed that while I was banned. Still seems like a bad idea to get rid of the subforums, I was posting in the RDR one a lot recently.
Probably will be readded considering they are getting 5 new mods for the games section
