I noticed that there was a nude paris hilton ad posted somewhere. Cant the people who post that get in trouble? I mean, I know there is quite a few people here who are under the age of 18.
yeh we need better policing for such things, damn bots and porn.
We may be the most popular guild on our server but still not that famous to get that much attention. Anyway i have no idea how these guys keep finding the sites and i just hate these damn link posts with irrelevant titles.
Yes i delete 6-8 marketing advertisments a week of this site
me too, im doing my part.

1. Username
2. Usertitle
3. Mod or admin status identification
your hard work posting to get a kickass title like Paladin shouldnt go to waste because your now a mod, plus this way everyone can have a custom title.
36. Renaming on subforums
as this site grows inevitably new areas or forums will be added, i propose the any new areas as well as existing ones be named after areas fro mthe diablo series
-The Introductory area could be named the Rogue Encampment, as in the game this is where noobs start.
-The Diablo I discussion forum could be called the Cathedral or the Labyrinth, as this is typically where you spend most fo your time in the game.
-The Diablo II LOD discussion forum could be called Harrogath.
-an area that required high status such as being a mod or admin could have an appropriate name like the Harem or Pandemonium Fortress.
-if the General off topic forum is split into seperate topic areas, the area for discussion of books could be called the Arcane Sanctuary, books posess knowledge, the Sancturay was built to further acquire knowledge.
-The spam area could be named after one of the inns or taverns from the series. you go to an inn of tavern to escape the pressures of life and things, you go to the spam forum to escape the constraints of nomral forums.
37. Better policing of Bots/ads
desperately needed is a better way to stop or control the amount of bots present. I dont know much about them other than they are annyoing. but prehaps those who post on this page and the previous one might be able to better shed some light on the subject.
38. a RP sub forum.
I rather enjoy the art or act of Role Playing, esp in a medieval fantasy sort of a way. but im getting rather sick of having to defeat it. prehaps if it was confined to one area, people wouldnt mind it too much.
if such an area is made and sub forums are given names of places from Diablo, i think Travincal or the like is rather fitting, the majority of the RP that goes on around here is based around a holy order, much like the residents of Travincal once were before the taint of Mephisto warped the order of the Zakarum.
39. Philosophical discussion area
an area purely for the discussion of philosophical issues, and in addition to this, someone should be made into a mod, it would be the job of this person to make sure no flame, spam or crap appears in this thread. I think such a job might be best filled by someone like Phrozen Dragon or prehaps even Muttonchops, they both prove themselves to be quite knowledgable on many subjects of a philosophical nature, time and time again.
40. of Mods and Super mods
as the site grows so do does the need for more people to keep check of the day to day goings on of this great site. while the 7 or so of us (Cyks, Silver, Dark jay, Opus Dei, Maestro, Thatdude and I) are fully capable of this job, prehaps the additon of maybe even 2 or 3 more deserving people would help to better manage things. timezones are what kills us, on occasions some not nice people can spam and post crap between the times we mods log in/out. having people in different time zones (or even in the same timezone but they just dont sleep) will help to stop this especially when the site gets a lot bigger, and at its current rate of growth i think thats highly likely.
41. Second request for Reputation system reworking.
There has been talk of the concept of forum gold, we used to have a reputation system if it was reworked it could be fairly close to what the people who spoke of frum gold want. but as it really had no purpse it was removed. should a suitable reward of reason for its return it shall be done.
42. Contest/game Area
a sub forum area of the general area for contests and other forum games.
43. Gamer Tags
under the avatars, some forums have next to their MSN and AIM icons their gamer tags as well
So check out this thread at this forum here, and look under their number of posts and you'll see an Xbox icon. You can click on it to view their gamer tag. It's neat. http://www.crius.net/zone/showthread.php?t=21601

I have noticed the incredibly large amounts of bots and spam users that have been coming on lately. I generally go online when everyone else logs off of the site and that is when the freaks come out. I dunno what can be done besides adding in one of those security things (u know, where you have to type in the letters in the picture) and deleting accounts that do nothing but advertise.
I have also noticed that we have been having competitions lately, which is a good thing. But maybe we could give the the contests a prize like an item from Diablo 2. Perhaps at the start of the comp, state the item name, its realm and whether it is ladder or not.

i really like the contest idea with d2 items...im sure it would make people want to enter just to try and win if the item was worth it...lol
imagine how many people would try to win if there were prizes like torches,enigs,tals,tancs,sigs,ect. ect.
also...if that were to happen,there should be a small set of rules:
1)to make it fair to people that are less artistic and lack the software there should be more than one prize.like have 1st/2nd/3rd prizes
2)obviously no idea stealing unless consented
3)any original art should be shown along with your version if you used something that isnt yours to make something new.
4)i knoticed people get a bit upset if you vote for your own work...so i think maybe to solve this matter,everyone should get atleast one automatic vote for participation or maybe even a consilation prize like maybe gold or some random low level item.
im sure more rules can be added but just for an idea.
i think that its a good idea but where would all the items come from if there are lots of people in the contest?
If we had contests with D2 items then those who are less powerful in the game but more creative in the real world would finally have a chance to thrive.
I am one of those people. Not the perfect candidate, but just for an example. I am not the strongest of players when it comes to items. I have got one or two character with some decet equipment, but when it comes to duelling or high lvl PvM then I don't fair much in battle.
But I have been known to have a way with words and a touch of creativity. So if we had competitions where I could use these abilities to get some decent equipment then it would be a godsend.
The only thing is that Umaru and the mods on the site would need item hunters, unless people were willing to donate Items that they find for the good of the site.
i really like the renaming of parts of the forum to diablo fitting names... as for the spam section Tavern of Jay sounds nice :rolleyes:
i do think that more contests and ingame contests would help out this site in terms of activity and overall fun
also in the spam section i think that a "General Conversation" thread needs to be made... small conversations between groups of people has helped these forums seem alot more active in times before... that is something i miss... i remember having long posts between me elfen silver and maestro, (to name a few), often several pages long

If you ever meet a hafling and a hungry dragon you dont have to outrun the dragon, you only have to outrun the hafling.
Naming the different sections of forums to suit the diablo theme is a pretty neat Idea.
I actually think that one of the bst ideas has already been made with the spam section. Just because it doesn't increase your total amount of posts, yet it still allows you to dribble absolute crap for no reason.
exactly, could name it after Elzix's Inn or Atma tavern. i forget if they have names.

Ha, we should take the characters with Blizzards permission, and put them of the site GIF style, take Atma or Elzix or someone. And then at the main page have the Prime Evils.

no Ogden's tavern in Diablo was the Tavern of the Rising Sun. Elzix's Inn and a different name uh i think. definitely not the rising sun.
