BBS requirements
« on: September 28, 2011, 04:51:36 PM »
 My wish is that the amount of post your aloud per day be tied to your subscription.

  IE: no subscription to game then your limited to say 3 post per day,I wouldn't want to see it so you had to subscribe to post but I think there needs to be a reasonable limit in place. This would make some posters think twice before they post!

  Of course if you are a player with an account I don't think you need your posts limited but there are exceptions!

I don't care about volume as long as the posts are of substance.  If anything, simply replying "+1" or "-1" with no other input or feedback shouldn't add to one's post count.

Quantify something and it will always become a "who's is bigger" contest to some.

No, absolutely not.  Every post should be taken in turn and its substance, points and validity considered independently of the author.

I've always rather wished we had a board which included a "rep" system, wherein you can give or take reputation from someone for the quality of each of their posts, which is displayed next to their post count.

But, then again, this game has such a group-based sect, I'd be afraid of the "mass reporting effect."

HEY HEY HEY!!! I don't have the money for a paying subscription, but why should I not be allowed to voice my opinion about the game?!?! I still play Aces High, just can't play online.

My immediate reponse to most of these "If you don't have a paying subscription, you can/can't _______" is a -1.

Plain and simple.

What about  "If you don't have a paying subscription, you can't play online"?

I liked it better when people just asked for only "wishes that made sense" to be posted.

You have correctly identified the problem, but I don't think your solution works.
No, I don't have a working solution either.

Not sure that could work very well, the BBS ID in most cases is not the same as a player’s game ID.  How would AH know who on the BBS was a paying customer?   But It might be nice for the paying customers to have an area that only paying customers could get to.  A benefit of being a subscriber.   After all, if it’s possible to play the game and not pay, what’s the benefit of paying?  An area that the paying customer could use to discuss items for the game or a customer wish list.

You already have the choice to not read somebody that spams the board. You don't even have to see their posts.  :aok
