How can we improve this forum?

1. More variety in thread content. The past few weeks have been nothing but insanity. Insanity and comedy are nice, but in doses. Once you get to a certain point, it becomes obnoxious. So please let's make our threads more varied! Instead of making a bunch of threads about how your've got drugs in a bowl right now, how about talk about something useful?

2. More users. We need more users! How can we advertise on gaf without getting people bannded?

I think it has more to do with the several high profile attempts to recruit for evilbore on the forums than anything.

I think he even banned the IP. I would sometimes grab a gif from here and post it over there but (

I don't do it anymore though) and now the IP itself seems to be black listed.

Sorry, but there's no good reason for it at all. If you want to argue spamming the forum with EvilBore links would occur, that's a TOS case where individual posters should get banned. But to outright censor the site name? Nah, fuck that. It's Evilore being a baby. he was all pissy with me when I was crusading to get him to take down his ridiculously over-priced MAF shirt well after he'd outright removed MAF from GAF history.

And look at the other banned sites. News sites full of nothing but fake news and shit, and a forum full of racist fuckwits.

Just keep it on the downlow, simps. There's a few folks in GAF moderati/administrati (Wasabi, TVC, Dragona) that I still like and chat with, and I don't want a repeat of my last little mistake.

That's just because the word evilbore is banned, and thus anything you link from this domain will come out looking like all asterisks, similar to trying to link an image from sites like sp0ng and kotaku.

Yes, but you used to be able to link to the images here, which ass show up as:
http://208.109.107.74/forum/Smileys/whatever.gif
You could do that after the word evilbore got banned. Now even the IP address is blocked out.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #41 on:** December 01, 2006, 01:17:33 AM »

I hardly think Shake's one thread asking where the EviLore gif came from, even though not-so-subtle recruitment, qualifies as spamming. Hyperbole get.

EviLore is entitled to do whatever he wants on his forum. This is our forum, though. <3

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #42 on:** December 01, 2006, 01:17:57 AM »

Those stunts were stupid. There's certainly no reason for EvilBore and GAF to have "tension" or any drama; we're sort of like sister boards when you think about it.

When I get back to GAF I know full well that EvilBore is blackballed. Why the fuck would I want to start shit over this board? I love EvilBore, and I love the fact that it's slowly getting more popular. It offers far more freedom than GAF, but is still not out of control like OA. Perfect balance.

1 thread. One thread full of :elf and :nuhuh that Evilore tried playing off as not bothering him, only to have everything associated with the site completely banned thereafter. Sorry Whiteman, I see where you're coming from, but it just doesn't work for me.

I'm not going to bother looking it up. I think anyone that witnessed it will agree he crossed lines. I don't recall the details.

Also, I don't believe evilbore was banned as a result of the dark shake incident. I think there were at least 1 or 2 more episodes before that happened.
