Problemo?
I just like having power, you know? Plus I'd get more respect, which I don't have.And you're insulting me now, boomboom.

You get respect for the way you treat and interact with other people not by having power over them.Plus I'd get more respect,

People already post that stuff randomly on and off though. I don't think a subforum for "showcases" would cause anymore people to do than already do. If anything, we can make a rule that only non-editted players can be posted, and anything that is obviously editted will be deleted.
Yes, perhaps.
That's not a good quality for a moderator.
Not necessarily...Plus I'd get more respect, which I don't have.

More people would probably post their players and/or team accomplishments if there were a dedicated place for it, actually.
And to be honest, I could care less if the players are edited or not. It's still fun to see, occasionally.
Besides, people always ask for screenshots and whatnot when new versions come out.

Re: New Forum Suggestion - Split General Discussions Into Two
Houston, I'm amazed that you would bar edited posts...apart from the strictures of our English teachers ("Revise...revise...revise your writings!"), I believe that many a post would be far more attractive to read; less likely to inflame; garner more respect for the author's effort to improve his stuff; were that author to take a sober second (and 3rd) look at what he hath wrought.
I, myself, invariably edit my posts, if only to dunk in my teas, and cross my eyes. To those who dislike what I, eventually, do turn out, I can only say "You shoulda seen my first draft!"

Do you respect me? What about you, Ohms?

I do my best to respect everybody that respects me.
Seconded. The forums don't need any more "work" right now.
I would miss the x-ray vision option if I had to give up my powers though.......
I have some leftover respect that I'm currently not using. I'll give it to you for a good price. I'll pm my address to you and you can mail me a check. Good?

Thank you for correcting me, Ohms. Houston, my apologies for misunderstanding your post...I fear my on-us was off!

As for me, I respect everybody, no matter what..even if they don't respect me.
I remember when I was younger and in martial arts, we had mental requirements. The first one at every rank was:
" Respect for the Art, the School, and all other People."

I try to respect people that don't respect me, but sometimes, that ain't easy, depending on the level of disrespect you're being shown.
