All i got is "ban member" in the admin tab. :(

We should probably have a separate topic or something for all my ridiculous admin related queries.

<<< Amateur hour

Not sure who's suggestion it was, but whoever said it would be a good idea to have a topic that labled "Unholy consult release date" or something similar, you where right. Its nearly the top viewed topic on the site with nearly 1500 views. That topic has certainly drawn a couple people here. Hopefully some of them has stuck around.

;)

Yeah  Curethan that was brilliant.


Soooo what now... Put it to a vote/poll or something? Maybe we will get slightly higher participation % this time.

 Or we could give it some more time, split this into its own topic and let it marinate for a while.

edit:
there doesnt appear to be a character limit to groups. Or at least its >30.

If you are talking about the forum ranks, then yeah, I think I'll add a poll to it right now and then likely baztek is going to win. It's not like we can't change them. And though I think we should reduce the post counts we should leave big margins somewhat as they are.

Not sure where to ask the question so I will just put it here :) Can someone tell me what this karma stuff is all about?

Its for whatever you want it to be for. It has no affect on anything in particular.

Originally it was just a simple +/- but Madness changed it to Redemption/Damnation so that it would fit in better with the whole theme.

Thats as far as my knowledge on that subject goes. If you like someone's post, hit the "+" ... or the "-" I guess, whatever floats your boat.

What Wilshire said - it was simply an optional feature, Royce, to use in lieu of upvotes for particular posts. I've still as unsure as to whether I actually condone its use but...

Time will tell.

I mentioned this is some other thread a while back, and now finally found this thread which clearly is a better place to post it.

I would like to have a clear entry point for people who are new to Bakker, or curious about his work, primarily the Eärwa books.

Could be a stickied post, or a FAQ type document, ideally linked to from every page - due to Google, the top page isn't the given entry point for new readers.

If needed, I can volunteer to help writing this, if the powers that be think it's a good idea.

Opinions?

I appreciate your offer and gladly accept any effort you put forth.

I recently sticked a copy of Links to Fan Resources to Misc. Chatter and all the Earwa subforums (it is also originally stickied here in News/Announcements). The SMF system here doesn't allow global threads ??? ...

You're welcome to update it, reword it, etc, and I'll change my post.

Especially, you can help us get over the hurdles in the dreaded Pre-FAQ, which asks, for four pages, what even goes into a Bakker FAQ?

I have woken the dreaded Pre-FAQ discussion from the dead. Be warned.
