It's 2016, and I have questions about NeoGAF

Yeah accounts have to be manually approved.

That would be tough honestly. Makes me wonder what kind of checks are in place. I know when I joined I was worried that gaf wouldn't be able to recognise my university.

We do. Junior bans are permanent. If you make 300 posts and 3 months without catching a ban, you're doing something right.

Unless you mess up (like me) and say one too many sexually explicit words in a single post after becoming a member. I'm a silly boy, I forgot I wasn't on Twitter.

Story checks out

I think it's better not to have a tag, because it stays with you forever, and some of them are downright embarrassing.

Come on now, there is no such thing as a bad tag so far....

...except that one. Moment of silence for EightBitNate's account.

Most tags seem pretty respectful, and if not, usually someone was fishing anyways.
 
I wanna know when I'm getting un-juniored. Bish never responded to my pm

How long has it been? If it's more than 6 months, and you haven't already gotten an indication of when you'll be unjuniored (most juniorings now include a PM to the person juniored, with further information), definitely PM me or another mod about it. It's helpful to include info on what got you juniored in the first place.
 
Mods.....Im curious whatever happen to Blackace? My tag has no meaning if he's not active : (
 
Blackace has moved on to bigger, better things (like making all the money DJ'ing at Japanese nightclubs). Reminds me, I'm due to fly out for a visit one of these days.

Yeah sorry, my PM box gets stupid so if I don't jump on a PM right away, I may not touch it for weeks.

Junior Member means special member
...yep, that's it

thanx for the update bishy bish.....I wish him well...
 
Once or twice a year, we make suggestions as to people we feel like might be good on the team, and EviLore either takes those suggestions or doesn't. It's been a while since the last batch so I would expect more sometime in Q1 2016.

Team Crab4Mod2016 need to get that momentum going
 
I have a question!

Does anyone else feel like that, despite your post count (mines at 7.7k), you arent any closer to the community than you were when you joined?

Cant be just me right?

I suppose it is my fault. Havent really devoted myself to too many community threads. I just love leaving a comment with my opinion in news threads and advice threads 💁
 
The only tag I'd want is one that showed my distaste of Star Wars, Jingle All The Way or Speed Racer. Just so we could get that out of the way first.

I'm sorry but I can't agree. As campy as Speed Racer was it's a masterful achievement of cinematography and art design.

For a split second I thought you were on about Lawrence of Arabia or something, then the full realisation of what you just wrote dawned on me and I had to go and have a sit down.
 
Why isn't there a "Last Post" option, or is there, or is there an extension that does this? I post on Somethingawful as well, and looking at a thread and seeing for example, ten pages (200 unread posts // Jump to last post) means I can actually follow threads rather than reading some amount and hoping I remember how many more posts there are to go.

It's 2016, why don't we have this. And hoverboards.

is this a trap?

Outside of LettersGAF, I do feel somewhat disconnected from NeoGAF. I really should try and get involved in more relatable community threads. But, yeah, coming up to three years now on here and I still don't feel like I 'belong' on the forum.

At times yeah, as I rarely take part in community threads.

I don't really care though (well, most of the times that is). I think I've managed to get plenty of discussion going (I prefer quoting people and discussing them instead of simply leaving an opinion, though I do that too) so it's not like I get completely ignored.

I wish in a banned member's profile you could see the post they were banned for and the ban length.
The problem with that is that quite often it's not a single post. It may be a small thing (in some way a nasty one that is) that's been recurring for a long time for example.
 
2. How do the little member titles work? Some people just have "member", and others have weird things under them. Users have said mods(?) set them. What's up with that, do you ask for one or something? Is it assigned to you just randomly?

Can we change our registered email adress? Mine is from the university I used to study at, but I no longer have access to it.

I wouldn't mind changing my username either, it's meant as a reference to Jet Set Radio Future, but it probably comes off as rather drug-related.
 
"Mods answer" threads are my favourite threads just after Spider threads.


We should combine the two and see how it goes.
