"This is a plea to Special Reserve."

Hello.

In this passage, I will to refer to many things, this is what they mean.

"Regulars" - These kind hearted people come onto your website, and have fun talking to eachother, and post some great topics about games. Examples of these are: Ant, Elitesniper, Dan, Fogmaster, Fantasymeister. These people hardly win games, compared to the amount of work they do.

"We" - This also refers to the "regulars".

"Newbies" - These are the people that come on here SOLELY to win games, 95% of these will write one thing, steal a game from you, and then leave. The remaining 5% will stay after winning a game. These people do less work, and win more games.

"Staff" - This refers to anyone that works at Special Reserve.



We are getting very tired, and agitated at the fact that people come on here and win games, and never come back here again. This portrays the feeling of the forum simply being "used". We do not treat this forum like the 95% of newbies do. I.E. We do not have one night stands.

We care about the forum, and we enjoy returning to it, to post more things about games, and to talk to eachother. It is a social gathering as well as a games forum.

The staff, I believe, fail to see that we put much more effort and work into the site than the 95% of newbies, and also fail to realise that the newbies put no effort into maintaining their status in the forum.

Therefore, I propose this compremise. The newbies are unable to win, UNLESS they post at least 10 decent posts, which all refer to the name of the forum.

I have no say on the status of the reviews. I am happy that people can win with one review. I am unhappy with the fact that we put more time into the site than they do, but I understand that reviews have a better chance of winning a game.

However, it seems that newbies have a better chance than we do of winning a game. It also seems that whoever chooses gameaday fails to fully take in what has been written, and will ignore it if they have won before.


To summarise: We are unhappy with amount of newbies which simply leave after winning; we want newbies to post 10 decent topics before winning, to make the forum more effienent; and we want to have the same chance as winning as the newbies, which will also encourage more people to stay.

Thank you for reading. Any comments from the regulars will be welcomed.

Start a new topic then, if you really hate him.

Errr...buy that latest PSM Mag and have a look in the bit where people send in thier own game ideas. I swear it was true, HE TOLD ME AT SCHOOL!!!

We would like written proof.....ahem from you.

I just have to stick up for myslef here, I WASN'T saying regulars should win gameaday, I was saying that I agreed with GRIX and I was a little annoyed that people win and just leave. Sorry SHEEPY but I think you misunderstood my mesage, as did others.
PS- DURACELL BATTERY MAN'S GAME IDEA WAS COPIED FROM PSM MAG!!!

Here here.


Or is it hear hear?

Whatever. I agree.

I like it just as it is, as well as inviting gamers et al to write interesting, thought provoking posts, it allows us to think "Maybe, just maybe".
Making it more complicated would spoil the fun.

Points systems, how would you win?

Impractial. Ali may have octopi fingers, but he can't rate every single thing. :)

A points system too win games would be nice where you get awarded for quality, once you accumulate enough points you can win.
