Re: Forum Games

Nobody really wants to see those annoying spammy threads in CC or GCC. The odd ones are fine, but that's really what the Temple is for...

Re: Forum Games

Not only games, but yes, the primary purpose of joining clans is the have a more laid back place to post among people who have similar personalities to you. In other words, they're a place to spam and play random games.


Yew, that's pretty much how things are now. We do allow games as long as they actually have some thought or purpose behind them, such as mafia. However it seems it's those random spam games being inquired about.

Ty, I refuse to acknowledge you opinions wether for or against me until you show up at that game tomorrow.

Re: Forum Games

But aren't Clans a privilege? Are you lumping games in with that privilege? It seems to me they would be separate.

Posting on ZU in general is a privilege.

Re: Forum Games

It does seem a bit more exclusive than it should be, though. Maybe if you've been here long enough to join a clan but choose not to do so, you could request to see the Temple of Light and Dark? I don't see any harm in that. It prevents the main visible forums from being cluttered with spam and people who choose not to join a clan (or have sworn them off, like Blizz) can still play dumb little forum games if they want.

Re: Forum Games

You can still play the more thoughtful ones if that's any consolation.

Re: Forum Games

Why should games be required? We have plenty of ♥♥♥♥ you can do without having to create total spam games. We have a BA and a free-for-all RP area. (the latter being buckets of fun with the right people.) We have the clans, theres the mafia threads, art, graphics, and writing contests. Only the clans are "exclusive".

So guess what? I want to put my foot down on this.

Right. Making Temple permission separate from Clan membership seems reasonable.

Re: Forum Games

That would take the fun away from the Temple, though.

Seriously- why exactly do we need this?

Because some people don't want to join clans.

Re: Forum Games

Make serious threads exclusive to those who aren't in clans. We join clans to spam and play dumb games anyway right?

Re: Forum Games

Why?
If you want to play games, yet don't want to be part of a clan, then you join, never post in the clan, just the game section.

It's not that hard. Oh, the banner looks ugly to you. OTL

Re: Forum Games

I don't want to join a clan on principle. Joining, even just to play games, would defeat the purpose.

Re: Forum Games

It's overcomplicated, I think.
It runs neatly the way it is, it's been like this since forever. ZU is lenient enough the way it is, we don't need more opportunities for spam.

Re: Forum Games

I still don't see the problem with non-clan members PMing a mod for Temple access. It's just like joining a clan, except you get to see less forums.
