Thumbs up

Well, the poll is self-explanatory. To point them out, games like the Picture Game, Continuing Story, Word Association, etc. Personally, I enjoy them and participate when I can.

Absolutely not.

They are a waste of forum space, and bandwidth.

The only one I don't like is Word Association, and how people keep making new Continuing Story threads. Otherwise, Photo Game rocks.

I would have a hard time understanding if a site like TMS devoted to the gaming community (muds are games, after all) would ban playing games in their own forum.

Those who don't like them, don't have to read them.

Perhaps a censor system, whereby instead of simply posting the most recent topics on the home page TMS would post the most popular and interesting posts, would work. Either that or two seperate 'recent post' lists- one for serious stuff and one for serious fluff.

Unhappy

How about a new forum called "Forum Games" where all the games can be played/posted, and no posts made in that forum would show up under the Recent Discussions list on the front page?

If you remember that post count flamewar about the forum games, Syn....

Make it so items posted to that forum also don't raise your post count? That'd fix a major bitch about the forum games as well.

[edit]
-snap- While I'm on that tangent, reduce Xanferious' post count to 0 or something. He's been spamming these boards long enough to merit some action, neh?

I'm simply amazed. Have some people already forgotten the flamewars over them getting flamed because of their constant posting to just increase post count?

Good god. Back to the 'remove post count' reasoning.

Most likely.

This is the internet, this is where people tend to be more forgiving because they are here to have fun, where people do not get involved with petty namecalling at all and where people sometimes just don't care about things, such as those flame wars.

Just get over it, don't be stuck on something in the past.

Ingham/Seth:

One who was banned does not have any right to comment on the subject.

Syn:

Ser, look into removing post counts and such. It'd be a definite _good thing_ for the boards in general. Most of the 'valueable input' people average around 1-1.5 posts a day, while the spammers and trash tend to average what....3.5, 4, even 5 posts a day?

remove my post count i dont care and dulans count should be stripped to i mean he is a spammer/flammer/idoit dulan likes to start these flame wars because he has nothing better to do. the last flame ware last for 2 months god here i finaly thought everything was going smooth on tms and then dulan starts it all up again. so far your the only fool to care about post counts god are you that lame? post counts mean nothing
and no matter how long or how short your topic is , as long as you get your point across then its all good. if someone doesnt like you then skip or dont even read there post its that simple. but stop turning everything intop a flaming war because you have nothing else to do.

*wants to propose that the next game on the new board should be a contest where the winner writes the most incredulous one-sentence emote, but then immediately worries that there would be too many who wouldl use it as an opportunity to write meaningless drivel that runs on and on without making any sense or point, and thus decides that perhaps it wouldn't be such a hot idea after all.*
