Forum Games section.

[English]

I believe the forum games section is becoming out of hand "/ It is turning into a 'make up some lame excuse for a game to get your post count up' section. I think the forum games need to either be chosen/moderated better or just post count not count like spam section.
Your thoughts?

I've noticed it getting out of hand for a long time, people (not naming names (http://habboxforum.com/member.php?u=4878)) have always abused it and treated it purely as a forum to unproductively boost their post count. The only deterrent I can imagine to prevent this, would be to stop post counts rising within this forum all together (I've seen such steps taken on other forums).

Lol posts counts shouldn't count, tis stupid.

Don't mean i don't abuse the fact that they do count then i'm bored though :P

I agree with you, but it's almost impossible to give people warnings or infractions there, because most posts are only 1 word anyway.

I think post count shouldn't go up there aswell.

Problem is, if post count was disabled there - many people would lose a alot of posts, and they wouldn't be very happy.
I'd say it needs it's own set of strict rules (like trading) and a small group of Moderators who will enforce those rules.

Hmm, you got a point there.
Perhaps only games where you actually have to type something should be allowed, so no 1 word games.

If posts in that forum didn't count, so many people would drop by a couple of hundred posts.

I think the spam games should just be moved to the spam forum were post count doesnt count :p.

Thanks

Well then you need to tell your MODs to do this. And if they lose a few hundred posts so what? It's spam pretty much and all of the mods posted have agreed with me.

Oh yeah completely, nice civil way for a staff member to act?


And cheers everyone else who posted + agreed.:)

But loads of people with high post counts, like moi, well 5000 is quite high, have got banned. That's losing 5000 posts. I didn't mind that much.

And what's wrong in people who have abused that section losing post counts? It's their fault for being sad enough to post a few thousand times in that section.

Exactly!!

Shame Habbox never listen to use 'little' members who seem to have a higher IQ then them "/

I think it is good to let post count increase, but maybe we should be more critical considering what is a game and allowed and what is just spam and not allowed.

Yeah, thats basically what I said, explained in a different way :p.

I don't really think high post count changes anything. Wheather you have 10 posts or 1000 posts, it doesnt make much difference :).
