Yeah, topic posting approval for the den is a pretty poor idea (for once I'm not saying 'in my opinion' because this one is not an opinion). You're really not going to find support for that anywhere... it's condescending, unnecessary and counter productive. Talk about something that completely kills the vibe. It's rarely a coincidence when members are universally opposed to something, and nobody has posted any support for having mod approval. I just don't get it, it's so completely unnecessary... who came up with that???[/quote]
One person was for it. Besides, how often do you people actually create new topics in the Den? Once a month? Twice a month? Not that often. Regardless, we are taking your suggestions and discussing alternatives to this proposal.[/quote]
It doesn't matter if one only posts a thread there once in a year, I still wouldn't want to see it having mod seal of approval. And the comparisson to new members is bogus, they have it so one can't just join and instantly spam the forums, but long time members know damn straight what is and is not acceptable, just cause our name is not green; means nought.
You want to discuss alternatives? Get rid of it entirely, yes I understand cleaning up the forum a bit, but that? Gawd there is no face palm big enough...
