At least there seems to be some new/better understanding of the importance of the industry for the economy. Here's an excerpt out of some blog (quotes taken off GamesMarkt), unfortunately in german only: Vielleicht wird die bayerische und auch deutsche Gamesbranche in wenigen Jahren den gestrigen Tag als historisches…
That would be a lot of moderation work. And over-moderation never works out well. The OP seems to have a legit need, it looks like they might just need to be shown how to search. We do have some material in the Intro to Polycount sticky about searching. People don't read, but that's their fault. Anyhow if you see…
Hey everyone, A while ago we updated the vBulletin software to the latest incarnation and some functionality was lost because the them we were using was supporting an old version of the software. Over the last few days, Pedro and I (mostly Pedro) spent time updating the two primary themes (Polycount and Polycount_wide) to…
looks like my post from last week showed up finally. it took 5 days for moderators to greenlight my posting rights! I checked in yesterday and it seemed there weren't any new posts visible in the 'post here first to get moderated' thread since last thursday, bit frustrating but I more than understand moderators aren't…
I think anyone who has browsed their fair share of forums know that moderation is inevitable. You can't solve religion, or the death penalty by just pushing your opinion in a thread till it hits a few hundred pages.

I don't think it is worth your time to police this. Having been a moderator/admin on similar forums for years I know how much time it takes just to do the job you guys are doing without having to check and double check everything that may be AI. Especially deep searches, yikes! Perhaps a similar approach to art station.…
The player and thier lack of self moderation. The game doesn't need to change, the people who have problems do. [ QUOTE ] Dr. Orzack: "Dr. Orzack: That's correct. Usually, some type of intervention is needed. Video games used to be contained in arcades, so there were certain limits imposed on the amount of time that you…
Howdy folks, Been awhile without any updates on my end and it's time to update everyone on the state of everything that's happening around these parts. Why vBulletin? As you noticed we dumped the UBB boards that had been our reliable pony for years. We have a lot of reasons for looking around for alternatives but the gist…
