Doesn't smf have a customization thing where you can just give it your own skin

As far as I know, SMF still doesn't have a CSS editing feature. You still need to use stylish or whatever kids are using now.

Ngl, I like the upgrade to SMF 2, it's little easier on my eyes this time around. But like burton said...

there isn't enough contrast between posts

Adding at least just a bit more contrast will really help posts pop.


I also like having the added convenience of some of these new features and FINALLY SEARCHING WOOOORKS!

it's not really private investigating when they give you all the information, she called me on discord with webcam on to show off her braces

Read my response from burton, it's fine if that person is okay with the info being divulged in a constructive way. But to abuse it, especially without their consent is not okay.

Consider the type of person who would willingly become a forum moderator.

A system of volunteer moderators results in the people who most want to be moderators becoming moderators.  The people who most want to become moderators are psychopaths.  You can see this process in action in literally every forum to ever exist.

Sites live off of volunteer mods, unless they are small like the blf where it's usually the owner who does all the management. It's not scalable however to have a one or two person system, so moderators have to come in to manage the burdeons equally. Not only that, but people usually don't become moderators unless they willingly do so.

Like... really, how else do you staff a community and manage it. And places do it with pretty small margins of error. While facepunch isn't the best example, is quite strict and has an over-abundance of mods proportional to activity, they definitely keep out the big time stuffposters and problem users. And in the rare instance of a mod getting out of hand, it's dealt with pretty quickly. I can only think of one mod recently that abused their powers, and that was Big Dumb Patriot and he was demodded and banned for changing someones name.

I think you are mistakening volunteer mods with sociopathic beggars.

or even 4chan for that matter.

Not a good example, but I agree with the rest of your post.

Also, I guess another option is to go ahead and form a new forum or community. But Badspot shares the same sentiment as I do on the topic. It just won't work, so just remember, you're here forever.

If you want mods who overdo their jobs by banning anything vaguely in violation of the rules, then go anywhere else. Badspot does his job and only what's needed of him. This forum isn't active enough to warrant complete control.

its pretty cool when sanctuary gets attacked and i cant defend it at all due to being on the literal opposite end of the map without fast travel

But really, this is loving bullstuff because I lose stuffloads of resources for crafting when I don't have a sign that says "Don't loving raid me mongos" and have my defense at a level higher than my population.

i just have a vault going but honestly the settlement is pretty boring all the NPCs just got addicted to slotmachines and anywhere inside the vault you could hear them all go "haha check it out! this slot machine. its GREAT!". and my speech wasnt high enough to keep the old overseer
so i slaughtered them all

It would be nice to have settlement sieges that would actually happen when your defenses are high enough, but the attackers wouldn't start their attack and would continue pressing the siege until you got back to your settlement. It would pretty much keep production on hold and stuff, but you wouldn't lose stuff because you weren't paying attention to all the little stuff going on in the upper left hand corner of your screen.
