The fact some people have 50+ posts already doesn't bode well for the discussion content thus far lol

Yeah there haven't been many large discussions so far, most have been fairly small hype posts. I'm sure things will level out in the near future.

Tbh I prefer having forums than a chaotic discord where everything gets buried and no one can talk well

That is very much agreeable, managing forums is easier for the most part, especially for us moderators.

Yeah it is a forum, but I meant the whole karma system and upvote hunting etc.

I hope it doesn't carry over like that

I'm inclined to agree with you.

Well if we are going to start hunting karma, it's time to bring out the big guns..

that is exactly what we're trying to avoid.

Can't wait for someone to make a post for people to spam in, because that most likely will happen

Now I am really confused.. Thanks for that.

That happens on just about every forum that has a daily message point system, I don't think this one does.

Post count is a number in it's own, the more you have the better etc. Also same with likes and the arbitrary "trophies" and their points.

It's also very common for forums, regardless of their point system to create spam threads, such as "finish the story 1 word per post" or "count to 100" or "the next guy is a criminal and this is why" etc etc.

Just bury them with shit posting if that happens

 

[Wicca]

I would just like to say I am a huge fan of Xenforo, so I am super happy that you went with that software <3

But then the moderators are going to have to get angry at them.
