quote originally posted by AsianBookie: I have now implemented a 2 minute rule for adding post count in GC. - If you post in GC, you will add one post count, subsequently, all other posts made in GC within that 2 minutes will not count towards your post count. Once it expires, it will add another post count. I hope this satisfies everyone. It can be adjusted higher or lower later on if it is still a problem. This is a better suggestion rather than limiting to post once per 1 min. That way we don't restrict participation, but if you are abusing it for post count, you will not get rewarded. If you try to game the system, we again have the verbal warning/yc/rc/suspend methods. There are actually a lot of controls already in place that many of you guys as Gold members/Admins don't feel because those restrictions have been lifted for you - It is too technical to go into detail. For example, normal members have a flooding check of 1 post per 30 secs in the main forums. Newly registered members have a 15 minute cooldown, and only one post per 5 minutes. etc. When we give you gold member status, it is not just a medal as a reward, it also signifies alot of trust that we place on you to behave as a shining example. That is why it comes with more privileges (and responsibilities). If we feel you are undeserving of it, we can take it away. What @Nice_Guy said is correct - The system works. AB is still the biggest AH forum in the world and many members have been around almost 20 years now. Legends came, stick around a few years and left (poor health, lost too much, got banned, retired etc) but the truly great are still around. Some even come back after a few years of MIA. So lets all celebrate it rather than keep harping on these minor issues. Anyway, this has been a good discussion. Thank you all for partipating in this debate. Let's move on after this and do not hold any grudges against each other. Last day of CNY, please remember to collect your hong bao if you haven't done so and may all have a properious year of the pig! |
