Saregon Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I'm losing my mind seeing all the posts here about the game...this is not the place for that! I would rant more but I think I'm going to have an aneurysm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadDutchman Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Drives me crazy too, every time a new expansion comes out people come crawling in here (well, more than usual anyway) Seriously, I lurk in here more than Gen discussion to get away from all that crap.

DarthDymond Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Bumping this, as I Did you just go through and bump all the non-gameplay related threads you could find to knock the SWTOR ones off of the front page? Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_mike Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) "But I'm a sub and I'll do whatever I dang well please!" It would help if we could get these threads moved out of this subforum and into the Game Discussion subforum. They seem to have stopped doing that recently.

MadDutchman Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I don't think the forums even had mods to begin with. They lurk around in gen discussion during weekday business hours, though they mostly just move "I am leaving" threads to off-topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_mike Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) I don't think the forums even had mods to begin with. We had someone whacking away at the affiliate link spammers and I;ve seen the forums hacked twice in the past. Someone had been paying attention. Did you just go through and bump all the non-gameplay related threads you could find to knock the SWTOR ones off of the front page? Nice work. Was actually wondering about that. We have a bot operating here that grabs keywords from posts in the thread, changing the order, reposting the content and it appears to be coming back and adding in affiliate links a couple of days later. Was wondering if that was another run to set up a large series of those. Edited December 2, 2016 by dr_mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralRhodes Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 At the risk of stating the obvious, swtor is part of star wars, therefore can be discussed here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_mike Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) At the risk of stating the obvious, swtor is part of star wars, therefore can be discussed here This sticky was provided by the staff. Maybe taking a second and reviewing it would be a good idea - http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=85 Usually reviewing stickies on a forum is a good idea. That way you don't get into any sort of trouble with the folks who run the forums. Edited December 2, 2016 by dr_mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarons Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 At the risk of stating the obvious, swtor is part of star wars, therefore can be discussed here Yes swtor lore is apart of star wars not bugs and why I think the game going to fail threads.If you open a discussion swtor character that's fine.

Saregon Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 At the risk of stating the obvious, swtor is part of star wars, therefore can be discussed here Straight from the sticky... This forum exists so that Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ community members can discuss the larger STAR WARS galaxy, including the movies, books, comics, and other video games. Emphasized the keyword.

Nope mate, I'm not a bot, just got tired of seeing the whole front page hi-jacked, - didn't enjoy the report tho:( even if I'm used to it but most from grievers that can't handle a challenge;) but got to say I enjoy you're correct handling of things...

t-darko Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Would be nice if we could just get them to move the misposts into the right area so you didn't have to do that. I totally agree, these mispost is just a display of unawareness of how the forums work. If you're a first time poster it is a honest mistake to post your grievance on a Star Wars discussion forum since it all is Star Wars, -right!? So at some point we probably should be glad that there are people finding their way to the forums. Think you're doing good work directing them;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
