I think that if the month time-period of activation were to be lifted, that no adverse effects would be felt on this forum and having individual users only need to submit five good resources to be in Spam indefinitely would be a more practical approach. As I said previously, having only a few users submit five resources each multiplies and the effect would be greater than people realize. However, the way it is now, there are going to be people who just give up or do not try because the effort to gain access defeats itself every month.
See, this is something I totally agree with. It's all about compromise.I know i'm in the minority on this, but honestly this is a pretty stupid idea. Also, i took 5 games from the scrapped sections and submitted them to get spam access. If you want to delete them and remove my credits it's your choice.
You guys are acting like being able to go into a forum and post "safdsfqeeafdfs" is some kind of reward. Sorry but being able to post a spam topic isn't really a reward at all. Like i said in the other topic, this just seems like a cry for help because the site needs resources.
No one is going to go through the trouble of ripping music, sprites, or making games, music, or sprites just to get access to a forum that allows them to post gibberish.
I'm just going to keep quoting your posts until the staff actually replies to our arguments instead of skipping over them.
What do you mean, skipping? Look, I tried responding to them with my opinion on the issue, but I'm not the only admin here, and we all try to come to solutions that help everyone and form a conclusion that all the administrators approve of. If you ask me, it's a win-win situation: people get the Spam forum that they just want so darn badly, and the site gets extra resources for everyone to use. It's not a "reward," really; how on earth could you call Spam a reward?
You guys are blowing this way out of proportion.
I'm not really blowing anything out of proportion O_o, i'm just giving my opinion on the subject.
I was more referring to Swiftu saying that the staff weren't trying to answer questions.
ah, Sorry, i assumed you meant both of us because of the quote. I agree with what 4sword said about it's crazy to make people not into game development and such add 5 resources every month. Spam being a privilege is a better wording, but it seems funny that the only reward/privilege you get now when submitting resources is a spam board. Although i i do realize that the admins probably really have thought about anything else as a reward for credit's seeing as how the system is still in it's early stage. It just seems pointless to make people add 5 resources to post in spam. It basically just seems like: "Hmm, you want to post random things, then you have to give us 5 sounds/games/sprites" It's like your donating to the site to get spam.
