Yurgon Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 The ED SIMS SCREENSHOT AND VIDEO THREAD!!!! currently also reads "NO USER MODS OR COMMENT". Since the deactivation of the rep system, there's no easy way to express agreement with and gratitude for the great shots that keep getting posted. Hence the request to simply allow comments in that thread again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snuffles Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I thought the screenshots thread was merely to show a graphical representation of DCS's development... I don't always openly list my things. But when I do, I put it in my signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yurgon Posted April 3, 2018 Author Share Posted April 3, 2018 you can PM the contributor directly to express thanks or gratitude I thought the screenshots thread was merely to show a graphical representation of DCS's development... What's wrong with saying something along the lines of "that's an outstanding screenshot, great job!" in public? Or the occasional "great skin, where can I download it"?

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted April 4, 2018 ED Team Share Posted April 4, 2018 What's wrong with saying something along the lines of "that's an outstanding screenshot, great job!" in public? Or the occasional "great skin, where can I download it"? It is a no comment thread for users to show off their screenshot's, allowing comments clutters the thread, as soon as you allow discussion it quickly goes off topic. As mentioned if you feel the need to comment use the PM system thanks Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

snuffles Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 It's like a dating site. If your PM hits a full inbox, well you'll just have to live with your compliments being unsaid :P I don't always openly list my things. But when I do, I put it in my signature.

joey45 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Delete old PMs then. If you allow comments then you'll have a couple of pages without screamshots. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Vitormouraa Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I respectfully disagree, it used to be kind of a mess when comments were allowed. In fact, they prohibited comments there because someone was complaining about a user using filters in his screenshots. :D I still remember the discussion, it was like, two pages long! There are some places where discussions must be avoided because these specific threads always get out of hand at some point with unnecessary discussions.

That is a moderation issue. It is against the rules but, apparently, nothing is done about the infractions. It happens in many different threads and is annoying as hell.

Vitormouraa Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I don't think it's a moderation issue, it's up to the user avoid this kind of thing. Sure, not everybody knows how to use the forum but educating yourself is good sometimes. A good civilized place like a forum comes from you first, as a user.

Yurgon Posted April 11, 2018 Author Share Posted April 11, 2018 I think I remember discussions taking place in that thread that were pretty much off topic. I just don't remember them being so bad that they were seriously distracting. In any case, the quality of screenshots posted is generally very high, and I think the occasional "wow" or "thanks" wouldn't take too much away from the thread, now that the rep system is gone, but maybe you're right that the discussions would become too significant.

cichlidfan Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Up voting, or down voting a post is the correct system and is what the goal should be. However, ED is only a customer of the folks making the forum software so we can only get what they get.
