Ironsight 1 Posted March 7, 2007 Another question, are there any rules regarding the size of GIF images? Lately a lot of >100KB GIF avatars are showing up. Does the image rule count here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote[/b] ]§16) Keep avatars and signatures within forum regulations [*]Total maximum signature size is 600x150 px (text and/or images combined). Total maximum image size is 100KB. [*]Avatar filesize must not exceed 100KB. [*]Signature and avatar must be quiet, no sounds may be played back in them by any means. Please report any post made by members having a too big avatar and explain that in the report and we will deal with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr burns 132 Posted March 7, 2007 Who´s in charge of http://www.armedassault.com/ ? Need a contact badly! This is a case which illustrates the need for a "Community Manager". I remember I had some issues regarding the site as well, contacted Placebo and he passed it on, which is not possible anymore unfortunately... Exactly! I miss paul Who´s in charge of http://www.armedassault.com/ ? Need a contact badly! No idea if you still need it, just stumbled over this. The site is registered to BI, so I guess you need some official from BI. PM to Maruk I'd say. I´d still need it. Just as i said in the "Do you want a new .. bla" thread, you´ll never know if you´re wasting peoples precious time with your requests But since i didn´t yet get a response to my previous pm´s to other people i´ll be nagging suma or maruk soon since theres no other possibility.

Ironsight 1 Posted March 9, 2007 The right top banner is kinda annoying. Can't it be removed again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colossus 2 Posted March 9, 2007 What on earth do we need that ad for? We're basically the only bunch where you can guarantee that most of the users will buy the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Espectro (DayZ) 0 Posted March 9, 2007 Yea, people here have already bought the game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raedor 8 Posted March 9, 2007 We also didn't like the banner's fast blinking, that's why it now only blinks every 30 seconds. You have to live with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spokesperson 0 Posted March 11, 2007 How can things be too off topic? Killing off topics and conversation for no reason? What's the purpose? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raedor 8 Posted March 11, 2007 How can things be too off topic? Killing off topics and conversation for no reason? What's the purpose?

So nothing about your dolls, Shadow's weird habit of collecting boogers, advertising, and other subjects that break forum rules such as pro-racism and flamebaiting posts Pretty much up to the moderators' discretion Edit: Raedor beat me to it...

Balschoiw 0 Posted March 13, 2007 Can we have a designated Mod for the Arma mission editing section, or at least one that is willing to clean it up once per day ? Right now we have doubled and tripled threads and people asking the same questions over and over again. Help ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
W0lle 1052 Posted March 13, 2007 Okay you're volunteer Mod of the ArmA Mission Editing now. The only tool you need is at the bottom right of every post - you know this one already, so you don't even learn something new. It's called the RTM Tool... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balschoiw 0 Posted March 13, 2007 Ok prepare to be flooded away... Edit: Wouldn´t hurt though if you checked the thread from time to time as discussions often run from one thread to another with the same subjects and at some points a merge would be good.

W0lle 1052 Posted March 13, 2007 Five reports in less then 10 mins, that's a new record I think. Balschoiw you're fired! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balschoiw 0 Posted March 13, 2007 The mission editing thread is quite lively now as more and more people who are not so long here and maybe are not used to the rules and the search option tend to post their stuff right ahead without browsing the thread or using the search. That´s why I asked for some special attention. It get´s confusing for all and I guess most people answering questions there are not willing to repeat themselves over and over again. So have it sorted for the benfit of all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
W0lle 1052 Posted March 13, 2007 Wait some more weeks and becomes even more lively. A dedicated Moderator for just a Forum or even a subforum is no good idea (not even sure if it's possible) since it would be a crippled account. The problems, complaints etc. arise once that Mod is the only active one and can't deal with issues on other areas of the board. The report to moderator function working fine, even for the issues you mentioned. There are 10.5 Mods (I count myself as 0.5 for now) ready and waiting for reports from the board members. Just my 0.02€ though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balschoiw 0 Posted March 13, 2007 I wasn´t really asking for a specific mod for the section. Just for someone who looks into it from time to time (once per second or so) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wex-q 0 Posted March 15, 2007 If someone is having for example an image in his/hers signature, or an avatar that exceeds 100kb, or a signature that violates the rules, how do I report that, if I even should bother to take the 'law' in my own hands? Should I report a post where he/she has posted and explain that his/hers signature/avatar violates the rules, or should I just PM any moderator? wex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JdB 151 Posted March 15, 2007 Quote[/b] ]§17) Report rule violationsIf you see a violation of these rules on the board, do not reply in the thread but send a PM to a moderator or use the "Report this post to a moderator"-function instead. Replying in the thread will be considered as spam. And the signature limit is listed as a rule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
