In Topic: Forum Moderators
15 November 2011 - 02:18 PM
I brought this up not an hour before on changes that should be made to the ACP.
Any ideas? Only one I could come up with was having a specific section for local moderators and controlling them rather than piggybacking them on the forums. It is... Clunky. But I didn't really have any suggestions on where to go with it.

No... No.. I'm pretty confident in saying the numbers are at least equal.

Thanks. But.. No.. For every one of you.. There's someone wanting to call me an ass.. So.. I take both equally. You'd both be right..
In Topic: Topic descriptions no more

How about this?
In ACP->Look and Feel->Manage Templates & CSS->Forum View->topics
If you change that to
That way, it shows tags, but, if the topic is a legacy topic and has a description, that would be displayed instead?
That seem like a happy middle ground? You get to keep the legacy descriptions, they will show on the list of topics, and no new ones can be added.

Well, this is more once users get through.. Which, is going to happen. I don't care what or how many blocks you have.. If you allow registrations, spam will get through at least from time to time.. There is no foolproof way to do it.. There's only mitigation.
Turning off registration will pretty much stop it. But, an account could be hijacked and it get through that way..
If you trust a mod to be a mod.. My opinion is that you should trust them to block spammers anywhere on the site. And, if they abuse the power, then they probably shouldn't be mods in the first place.
