I have a question.

Since 2008 SBO will include Hokuto No Ken discipline once again, I guess that means that some people that used to play the game, or maybe some new once will be interested to read some stuff about it. I know that this forum used to have a HnK section, I am not asking to put it back on, I just want to know if there is some kind of archive or back up for the HnK threads. The particular thing that interests me is the original button layout for the jp arcades.

Online Games forum needs some sort of Installation and Setup sticky. Or, at the least, a tech help thread. I'm still getting IM's and PM's about how to get #r online working and I haven't been anywhere near the thing for months.

As much fun as megafat threads are, it's probably about time they got cut down to size.

Show of hands, who regularly reads all the posts at the start of the megathreads?

Dumping the pruned posts into a flat file or whatever would be enough for all nostalgic needs. Dunno the specifics about how it'd impact the DB specifically, but I figure removing ~20K records would do some good.

I nominate myself to mod the match maker forums. I see mad post from people who could scare away newcomers that might be intimidated by the regs ,or just think they are huge assholes.

Maybe

i think the problem with appointing a mod to Matchfinder is that it's too active to monitor consistently. also, by and large, the threads in the Matchfinder forums are pretty friendly, so i can only imagine that this is a specific problem within one (maybe two) threads that you're talking about.

don't take this as an "official" response, though; in the end, it's up to Gwyrgyn.

I wouldn't mind seeing Raekwon threaten people with Potemkin Busters.

I understand

Sometimes I randomly see things that aren't cool for the scene. Cleaning up some is better than none.

Seconded

I think it's cool, but I don't know if there's really all that much to moderate since offtopic flimflam is largely okay. My only real requirement for the forum would be that a new player should be able to find a thread on his region and find some players to play against.

have you guys considered expanding/cleaning the layout of the "guides" section from the front page to include character strategy?

i noticed that many of the character specific forums and their sometimes HUGE threads aren't the easiest things to navigate, which new players may find off putting.

sorry to change topic

i was curious what my first post was on dustloop, and i tried to find it by going to member list => rtl42 => find all posts, but it only gave me the last 500 posts. is there a way to go back further?

(in case you are wondering, the earliest post i can find is from february 13th 2008, and i know there are other posts of mine, still on the forum, that are older than that.)

It's not great, but you can always use Advanced Search and select to show only posts older than a certain date. I think the 500 hit limit is to keep the search from shitting the server, which is a pretty common problem with vBulletin. I'll see if there is a better way...

oh, sorry, should've tried that.

but still, it'd be kinda nice to have an ordered list of posts, because even using advanced search, i have to sort through entire threads, and that's kind of what i want to avoid.
