Refugee camp is like getting the chance to stand behind a oneway mirror in an interrogation room, how can you not like it
[QUOTE=Burre.png;52835733]Gold members should be banned at least once a month so that they remember they're not any better than us.[/QUOTE]
I will never trust anyone with no more than 7 bans. I only count 6 legitimate ones. Why should anyone listen to you tbh
[QUOTE=joshuadim;52835789]rigging the vote eh? We will send you to the gulag first[/QUOTE]
You blues don't deserve the privilage of a proper vote! We need to put you degenerates in camps
[QUOTE=DinoJesus;52836000]Holy shit I totally forgot year elitism. Boy this place has changed.[/QUOTE]
it's not that surprising that a 'tenner would forget.. pssh...
but really though, I remember when blue members could have 80x80 avatars like mine, that I never changed, but I think it was because either some guy was complaining, or a bandwidth reason, or maybe both, that they got downgraded to 64x64... good times.

We should just bring back the old standard dog ass with glasses for all new members. It worked so well.

"In 2011, Garry set up Facepunch to use Cloudflare in an attempt to reduce the load on his servers. The process had an unintended side effect: users found that even after clearing their browser's cache, their avatars would not update anywhere on Facepunch except the control panel. This was eventually traced back to Cloudflare caching the old avatars and never updating them. Slithersoul's response to this was to post in AUATF about it frequently, with steadily increasing levels of rudeness.
Garry eventually got fed up with this. He fixed the avatar problem, but forced all blue members to have no avatar (gold members and mods were unaffected) and said to blame Slithersoul for it. This persisted for about a day, when Garry restored all blue avatars, and modified the restrictions so that future avatars uploaded by blue members could be no bigger than 64x64 (down from 80x80). The limit was subsequently reduced to 60x60 and remained there for years, with the limit currently being 64x64 again."

What the golds don't realize is that they're the ones being rounded up in camps. I don't see a poorly maintained blue member's forum anywhere.
[QUOTE=thelurker1234;52835755]What? The RC is amazing.[/QUOTE]
The RC is one of my favorite bits of this forum and something I would greatly miss if I ever somehow leave.

What are you talking about, you use it every day

You're posting on it right now
[QUOTE=Kiwi;52836074]I remember when you could get permabanned as a gold for posting in the RC.[/QUOTE]
I didn't realize golds couldn't post in rc anymore. what a shame. every once in a while you see a thread and say "well thats almost worth it"
turns out that's a really bad idea when half the forum is golds craving to throw some epic zingers at the banned guys

what about that is a bad idea? would make the perfect idiot cull

[QUOTE=WitheredGryphon;52835734]Are there any plans for a usable API in FP4.0?[/QUOTE]
I remember Hezzy saying this was so when he talked to garry about it
That's just off memory though
[QUOTE=RoboChimp;52836083]So goldmember's can't make threads to appeal their bans now?[/QUOTE]
no, gold members who hadn't been banned used to be able to post in rc for a perma.
[QUOTE=RoboChimp;52836083]So goldmember's can't make threads to appeal their bans now?[/QUOTE]
You used to be able to post in other member's RC threads as a gold member, the rule was you were only allowed to quote their banned post so the user wouldn't be confused about why they got banned
I remember way back we were able to rate posts made in the RC but that was taken out to stop egging on bad posters I think.
I thought it used to be that you could post if you gave an absolutely flawless response/piece of advice but it was playing with fire.
Oh, well that seems kind of stupid. "I'd like to apologise for shitting up the thread" Gold replies with "Now learn not to be a such fuckwitt in future"
the RC gold member rules have changed so many times it's hard to keep track, but yea we've pretty much just been slowly restricting what golds can do in there up to now, where all they can do is just look. bad apples just kept fucking it up for the rest lol

I think it would be nice to see a megathread for talking about amusing/terrible RC posts again, unless it's a thing right now and I'm just blind as fuck.

I remember golds posting and not getting banned, it was mainly to help out when a new member got banned and didn't know how to check which post got him a red memebership etc.

Late to the party but glad how the eventual avatar bullshit discussion turned out with actual changes happening, hoping that the same transparency happens for other issues the forums has.
woah woah logging in with Facebook on the new forums?
But what if I want to support the alt-right without being doxxed?
In all seriousness though, how secure or public is the data tying your profile to Facebook; at least here there's a tenuous link between you & your profile.
I know some sites will just borrow your Facebook username as your username on their service, some will even ask if you want your profile picture and link transferred over so others can find you. I think the API allows secrecy but the security of that is unknown to me because I'm not a web developer
If your really scared, sign up through email or even Google since nobody uses Google+
Looks like it's finally happening.
Can this version of the forum still be renamed, rebranded and handed off to someone? I don't hate the new forum, perhaps I'm nostalgic, but I would like to see this vB forum (even with all it's spaghetti code) live on somewhere. Or perhaps just the old rating system in vB 5.
