    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    Phpbb allows you to make a forum where posting in it won't raise your post count.

    I'd say if you do make a spam forum then do that.

    My only suggestion is to make an FFXI info forum. I know the bg forum focuses on endgame randomness, but it would be nice if half the threads weren't full of people saying "zam". Maybe if you made a seperate forum people can choose whether to help people out or ingnore them. Won't make or break the place, but just a thought.

    That low level forum will probably be brought in sometime soon, we just wanted to see whether or not it would bring enough traffic to merit having it's own section. The rule within that forum would be that if you don't want to help, don't post. No "zam" bullshit.

    Dont add too many threads, then you take away the unque of BG, I like everything crammed into one forum, it makes for a fun read, unlike KI or lolzam. Also, u can make a spam forum without having it register post count..

    Also please dont resrtict BG trademarks, dont limit if people can "lolzam" some really stupid thread topic, its what makes BG fun to read, taking away one thing will lead to another will lead to people no longer posting on these threads. Let people have their fun, a few rules are understandable dont go power hungry and ban everything everyone says.

    Also a spam forum would be a great place for people to ask small non-threadworthy questions.

    Yea, but you do have to admit, going through 2 pages of people just repeating different ways of saying lolzam gets old really, really fast

    The way I read what Nikkei said (and I could be wrong) was that this would be a seperate, "help teh lowbiez" forum but then again, I could be very wrong because I'm very cross at the moment.

    Also a spam forum is the most ridicolous thing ever. Learn to effectively derail a thread into a spam fest, find a partner to cooperate with in order to effectively win the forum war. STRATEGIZE PEOPLE STRATEGIZE a spam forum takes away all the accomplishment in sucessfully derailing a thread and acheiving a post count bonus check

    also lolzam is OK but it shouldnt be overly used like most things in life- moderation is key! >_>

    Remember the Kuno cards? They were beyond awesome until Geo whored them out in every thread. So yea, pretty much the same thing.

    I did die a little when they were whored out. You know like in Big Daddy when they wasted the good suprise on Adam Sandler.

    terrible fucking analogy...its late

    Hmm, I tried searching for any topics/posts on "Goldsmithing" and the search results turned up nothing. And I swear there are a few threads on the subject. Is search feature broken or was I just missing something?

    Thanks for all the hard work on the forums.

    I noticed a similar problem with a Search for "moghancements" yesterday as well... then I didn't even end up posting my question for fear of being zam'd, lol.

    a tech person, some corrupted parts of the database was removed during the move, that's probably what's causing the problem.

    we'll see if there's some way to fix it.

    reading/hearing the phrase "we'll look into it" just makes my confidence crumble
