Playful/Fascist Mod
Some people seem disatisfied with the current level of posting. Once the new Gamepark BLU came out, we had to expect new users would start popping up with BLUs and old GP32s sold on ebay. Eventually the community should calm down as newbies get a clue and become regular members or get disinterested with GP32x.
Now I know you all hate stupid questions, but just because they're idiots doesn't mean they're not entitled to help with the GP32.
I propose a "Newbie Initiation" phase that is clearly defined. Let's say 1 week. After the 1 week is up, anyone with an IQ over 60 should be able to figure out how to properly use these boards and where to go for help BEFORE posting. So this means after the week is up, the "newbie protection" is gone from them, so you can flame them as you would any regular member. Of course there is only such a level of flames we can tolerate, but so far you can see we are pretty lax when it comes to regular members
I also propose sectioning off the "New Posts" feature like this, in this order:
-General: General Talk, News Zone, Reviews, Beta Testing, Marketplace
-Dev: Everything under "gp32dev"
-Off-Topic: Everything under "Other stuff"
-Help: I need help... board
-Wishes: Cool ideas and other wishes
You could also choose to only view posts in these particular boards. Out of sight, out of mind.
What do you think?
