Re: Suggestion for GUU
I can understand the desire that many forum members have for an edit feature. However, everyone already has an ability to edit posts before publishing. This feature is called the preview post button. Typos suck as at some time almost everybody encounters one, I get it. The forum might be a better place if we all took advantage of this feature. The preview post gives one a chance to think about if one really want to post what they have written... time to think before "speaking."
The inabilty to edit keeps us accountable for what we write.

Re: Suggestion for GUU
Thank you. The Banned List would be set up so that only moderators and admins could reply to it. All it would include is a list of banned members, sort of like the following:
TDKID banned for being the reincarnation of tjm5711.
Hyl banned for spamming the boards.
The information contained is all very factual and would preempt members from posting "Why did he get banned?" threads. The information would all be contained in one thread where only mods could post.
Frik is not liked by several GUU members, but when she makes a legitimate suggestion, it is important that we have an intellectual rather than emotional response to it.
But I would second the suggestion to not oppose this idea just because I am the one who suggested it. It's a good suggestion and works well on other boards I've been a part of. It ought to be implemented here.Les Zukor

Re: Suggestion for GUU
So the usefulness of the list would be to notify members of why someone was banned in order to avoid the why were they banned threads? LOL..And so now the hottest thread going on the forum is the thread discussing the validity of a banned list. Does anyone else see the comedy here? Stop the insanity!

I agree with being accountable for what we write, BUT... the EDIT Feature would be well served in he Collector to Collector Forum so you could edit prices, what had sold, what is still available,etc without having to bump your CtoC thread everytime you sell something or what to change a price, etc.
All the best -

Re: Suggestion for GUU
I personally am not worried about why someone is banned and the story behind it. I belong to a few message boards and have never seen a banned list and I am a moderator of one of them. If someone gets banned there is a reason for it but to create a thread so members can see why that member was banned has nothing to do for what this board is about. It goes along with the edit feature and the reason there is not one. Members are accountable for there actions and as Michael said that is what the preview button is for before you post. But Chris does have a nice point in the buy sell thread as far as updating prices and items that are no longer available.

Re: Suggestion for GUU
I think it's pretty obvious that we will all not agree on things here. Let's just let the fantastic five clean things up and get on with our lives.
If you really want to impress me, give the old knowledgeable members a reason to return. Hell, even the creator doesn't frequent his creation anymore. What does that tell you?Mike
