I would mention something about Counting threads. But we've just recently tried to move away from those. :P

I don't think 'unsticking' them really constituted as 'moving away' from them, lol. But in general I've trying to expand my horizons like i've been trying to do for the past few months so yeah.

It's been this way since I've been a member at least ;o so sometime before last March?
man back in my time the whole staff wanted to close the DCC because the regulars were always on the edge of rule breaking

the fun lasted until we did break some rules and got ourselves banned!

now I come back and see it's taken over by mods so it feels like when you're exiled and come back and see the government officers sitting on your chair and drinking tea with your tea set, you know?

Just wait til we introduce the Other Voting Polls DCC. Yeah, you just wait for that.
But... but HOW??

since when has the DCC been this full of moderators posting wtf; back in my time the staff hated the DCC unanimously
Probably years at this point. The huge troublemakers of the DCC are long gone. I think that was the major problem staff had with it back then.
/says the mod that only lurks DCC on occasion

Then again, when were you here last? Wasn't that around the time they made the DCC subforum just so they could ban individual members from posting in it? Or was it after that?

Somehow an OVP DCC intrigues me, in that I would like to see how it could be implemented without growing too spammy.

And I don't recall the era of DCC ne'er do-wells, though IIRC I wasn't regularly posting in it till late '08 or early '09... back then I was pretty much on the dearly departed Fan Fiction Lounge, which was that section's DCC equivalent. Once that died, so did avenues of discussion in that section and hence I migrated to the general DCC.

yes, quite a few years - I don't even know the exact number! and well yeah I figured the staff didn't really have a problem with the DCC itself but the members that frequented it... makes sense I guess.

thinking about it, I was here last... um, maybe 2006? that's when I was banned (for the second time). I came back in 2009 but I didn't really stay for that long. I remember talks about the DCC subforum, though I have no idea if it was pre- or post-ban, and the idea made me sick with disgust so maybe that's another reason why I left lol

I think it's safe to say pretty much all of the current staff either wasn't around at all then or at least were not staff back then.

And I've been frequenting here since at least July '09, a whole 2 years before I became staff.

Only 7 mods were mods before 2010, so... that says something. :x

That doesn't surprise me. People like Rai come in, be good and get modded quickly.

Well, maybe a general gaming chat thread in VG wouldn't do bad, after all.
I agree, VG has a good reason to have one imo.
