That is a question I wanted to ask, how do moderators see a user's ban history?

I'd feel paranoid if it's just floating above my username right now.

I think a lot could be gained from a [spoiler] option, allowing a drop down to be opened when you click it. Which would work for a more comprehensive image organization quite well.

I remember that being mentioned in the "Changes for BSN" thread, and do support it. It's true that the "coloring" version is a bit more convoluted than most would be comfortable using.

Will you guys also be changing the account deletion process? I know people find it annoying that they have to wait 2 weeks from their last forum post to delete accounts.

Might be in put in place in case people change their minds.

Yeah, spoiler tag would be a great feature.

Not only useful to hide spoilers for those who don't want to see them while don't want to expelled themselves of public forums, but also useful for huge posts to be shorten so you don't have to scroll down a lot in case you're not participating that conversation and for pictures to not take too much space and slow down loading of forum page until you choose to open up spoiler tag.

One thing I'd like to see added to one of the older rules for image use:

I'd like to see an encouragement to use links for imagery instead of -img- posts. It'd be a more organized and condensed way of employing visuals without having it directly on screen. In general discussions on Mass Effect/Dragon age/etc. topics, images aren't necessary. However, cases like topics on upcoming games in Off-Topic don't have the luxury of having a sub-forum for fan creations.

Ultimately, I'd like to see an approach to manage images in a less cluttered fashion be fortified.

It could work like this deadlystream.com/forum/topic/2062-tsl-textures-remastered/

PS: Scroll to "Anyhow, here are some teaser screens"

And we wouldn't need to worry about opening threads that has Spoiler on the title. Ex: (SPOILER) MASS EFFECT  CITADEL DLC

Also, the mods would be able to put in Spoiler tag if someone "forgot" or forgot  to add it.

Magic. Moderators can see a lot about a user, Gravisanimi. Or should I say Dr. Francisco Lorenzo de Villairosa at 53 Pembrook Crescent, Batavia, Illinois! :P

It's not. The window where we Moderators input the ban details also displays the ban history.

I'm wondering if that actually is Grav's real information and Stan just put him on blast, or if he is making a funny here.

At the moment there is an account registered to be from croatia with a masked IP and Mac Address. It is a seed that is growing.

The layout for the listing of the forums and subforums is clearer. I appreciate the breakdown.

How is looks is hard on the eyes. When looking at each subforum, you literally have to go through each line. Skimming is difficult. I don't know if making three to four columns for the heavy sections will help but the front listing then paragraph form can be confusing. It's like a listing meets a paragraph which can cause confusion.

Can the moderators be placed in a more discrete way? The moderator listing overwhelms the forum and subforum listings. A better balance would be helpful. For ME and DA, the moderator listing is almost as big as the subforum listing. Wow.

I mean partitioned off, so you have to go through their page first to get to the subforums. Helps prevent what we have now with all the jumbled stuff.

Not that I majorly mind, just pointing it out.

Lol. There's absolutely no way, in any form whatsoever, that Stan would have posted real information about someone. I'd imagine that would get him instantly fired.

Stan doesn't work for Bioware anymore, remember? He's just a mod now.

But your point stands, he'd lose mod privileges obviously. I don't know why people believed that was genuine. :P

You're on Bioware's front lawn. You want to guess if they can?

Now, I believe they don't actually LOOK at them unless they have very valid cause. But you can be absolutely certain that they CAN.
