I think we should have the option to "Strip of GM Status" in the upgrades. It could only work on boostar'd GM accounts, and would be stupid expensive ($30), but it would let people settle disputes by blocking them from going to a part of a forum that doesn't really matter.

[QUOTE=Overv;34731506] [QUOTE=Maagiline;34725875][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/IiHUf.png[/IMG] speaking of the olden times, I want that back.[/QUOTE] It is technically possible to get this back with a user script and some clever serverside coding on my side. Let's see if there's enough interest in it. Rate [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/tick.png[/img] if you want me to make this. I can ensure that I have a better security track record than a certain other person here. It would start from the beginning when it's launched, so everyone will start with 0 ratings. Other than that, it has exactly the same features as the old system.[/QUOTE] yes, that was my intention of posting, I hoped someone would want to make that. also starting from 0 helps resolve the problem of crawling the whole of FP, like the script made by that one other person here.

So I got banned but I noticed that the forum now requires you to change your password at the same time. Why the password change?

[QUOTE=MIPS;34741957]So I got banned but I noticed that the forum now requires you to change your password at the same time. Why the password change?[/QUOTE] Password change prompt started up after lots of facepunch accounts got compromised. I think it came about when battlefield heroes account details leaked, and since lots of [U]wonderful [/U]facepunchers use the same password everywhere/most places, lots of accounts were hijacked and posted spam. So yeah, after awhile, you get asked to change your password, and I guess it checks when you're banned.

[img]http://i.imgur.com/Agz3l.png[/img] Wow. I've never seen so many posts in an instant.

How come you can't use [quote] and [spoiler] on page posts? I just hit 'reply' on a post, copied the bumf, posted to someones page but it's not allowed. What strikes me as odd is that you can do images, but not quotes? Quotes are harmless surely, as opposed to image which you could abuse with a huge picture of a dong or something.

Try using an avatar thats 80 long and 1 wide. Quotes are probably disallowed because of nesting abuse - theyre messages anyway and for discussion you could always use PM. Ive seen people using their page as a personal chatbox for some reason though

A quick Google search leads me to believe nesting (in this situation) is when a quote is in a quote (repeated) right? If so, what's the big issue? If it's someones page why can't that be 1. disabled 2. ignored? What's wrong with pages being used for chats? I appreciate there is PM, but pages are quicker. Click their name, paste/type, submit, done. Not too hard.

Boostar is not available to me, when I click on the 'Upgrades' button it leads me to a page simply stating: "No store information." Help? I wanted to get a friend gold member, but I am unable to do it. [editline]17th February 2012[/editline] Possibly a title too.

[quote] garry permabanned Maagiline with the reason “sethhack” [/quote] whats a sethhack

Googled Sethhack and it comes up with hacks for GMod

he's probably a member from sethhack, garry has had a fume between seth and him and for good reason

Just putting this out there: Seth is a retard. Back when I was in my "waaa i don't have money" phase of being poor and on the internet, he suggested that I whore myself on camera to make money. There's a reason why him and his circle of buddies aren't welcome near anything Garry touches.

Where is that page with all the html commands for posts? I found it ONCE but now I can't find it again.

What is sethhack? I've seen a few people banned here in facepunch for that. Also, how does one becomes mod?

[QUOTE=overpain;34754924] Also, how does one becomes mod?[/QUOTE] Be a good poster I guess and stand out from the rest, never ask for it and always be helpful. Report post and yeah that's it. Banhammer will be granted when they think you're suitable. Also sethhack is hack for gmod that does shit nobody cares about apart from VAC.

Any mods out there, change the title of my [url="http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1164087"]thread[/url] to "$600 gaming build including monitor and OS. Some parts already owned."

[QUOTE=overpain;34754924]What is sethhack? I've seen a few people banned here in facepunch for that. Also, how does one becomes mod?[/QUOTE] It's nothing more than one of the most prolific cheats used in Garry's Mod right now. With such high class features as an ~aimbot~ and ~~Wallhacks~~, all while being undetected by SE and VAC, totally worth the money isn't it? Not like you can get that stuff for free from a developer who isn't a total twat right? Plus Seth for some reason thought it would be cool to add some Devnull (DRDoS) subscription too, so his user keep DDoS'ing FP when Garry and the Lua Forum start trying to find a way to stop that cheat from working.
