Rotondo made a thread about people to ban? :o
It's a general moderation thread and everyone posted in it. Mods on the forum don't have banning privileges, as I recall Badspot or kompressor have to approve every ban... SMF is kind of stuffty in this regard. You have to individually assign permissions to each usergroup and there's like 3 or 4 dozen different permissions and it's not obvious what they do. If you're curious what the back end of the Blockland forums are, go start a demo forum on smfforfree or some other free forum site and take a look at the admin panel. It's a mess.
Could I request a picture of the cool people sub forum?
Sure, you can request a picture, but I'm not going to post one. I'll leave it up to the participants to post their projects when their ready, if they feel like it. I'm sure they'll mention it when PAX comes around, and if they don't, I'll point them out once the games get put up on the site.
why is that one thread by rotondo censored
Because it's regarding a feature that has not been added to Blockland yet. We don't know when it will get added, if ever, so I blacked it out to keep people from getting false hopes about it.
Wait, is it possible to enter one of these threads because there is a "Latest Topic Created" or "Latest Post" displayed at the bottom of the main page? Wouldn't it be possible to cheat your way into these topics? Or does SMF not even display updates to inaccessible forums?
Nope. SMF does not display threads that you can't see. The forum obeys this everywhere, even in user stats, etc. For example, if I check
my stats panel it says I've spent 5.0495% of my activity in Beta Discussion, but none of you can see that if you look and it says something else.
If you've got any questions about the forums or Blockland in general, feel free to ask.
