Completely agree with 125ch209. I was just thinking that myself. Another suggestion though: Also give players the ability to "ignore threads". These threads would then disappear from the user's forum list, and if they really want to see them again, they would have the option to show 'ignored threads'.

Another suggestion, maybe forum mods could have little banners (is that what they are called) underneath their names, just like Fizzer has "Warlight Creator" underneath his name. That would help with the transparacy of forum mods.

I've just had a brilliant idea! How about an "arguments forum" where all of our useless anti-Lawlz threads or fights between Falcons, Wolves and MSF, GRID and all the other trolls?

yes and I can pretend to be an evil overlord!!

Forum overhaul number 1 - ban thomas 633. Forums immediately improved tenfold.

*bans me*
*forum immediately collapses*

that might help, ace lol

an arguement forum will only work if people restrict their arguments to there. considering the closest thing right now would be off topic, and nobody takes their arguments there, instead leaving them out in everyone else's faces, i doubt that would be sufficient without someone to force certain individuals to cooperate

On the topic of an "Argument" forum.

It's simple. If you start posting things that should be in the "Argument" forum elsewhere then you get banned for however long. I know people can use other accounts and make other accounts but people would still rather use their mains and would avoid their mains being banned etc.

Not 100% sure on the limitations of the code but couldn't Fizzer set it up so he could ban people from the forums and not the game?

Or create a "Tribunal" system. For instance when you report someone, it'll go to a tribunal and a group of select trusted players could go through the case and vote on the outcome (Innocent, guilty etc). Similar to what League of legends have done.

Although the room for abuse is there with a tribunal system on a game like this.
