There are a lot of things code wise that could help with the over function of the forum but until Mahz gets on them, I don't see any of them being put into play. He has a long list of things he is planning to do but isn't around enough to do them. (Which is a shame. Granted this is just a side thing for him but I am sure from the advertising this place does pull in some income. If he could code things and fix some issues, it would probably profit him in the long run.) But anyways. The big thing would be an enforcing of the Fonz Code. I've had both positive and negative dealings with the mod when reporting things. Though I will admit the last time I reported something the result made me go [i]"Why bother anymore"[/i] so I haven't since then. Only thing I go to a mod anymore for is if I need a post deleted. Which to me is sad, this forum doesn't really have a lot of rules. Not compared to most I have been on, so it isn't much to enforce but in the end it just isn't getting enforced and if it is, not reliably. We need a more active mod staff. (Personally I believe this could take care of a heavy percentage of the issues.) In general though, I think the forum is pretty damn good. (At least in comparison to most I have seen over the past decades.) The organization of the forum I will admit is one of my favorite features and what initially made me come here and has been one of the main factors of me sticking around. Having OOC, IC, and CS's all in tabs is really ones of those luxury things I adore. I know there are many things people as individuals could do to make their little slice of the forum better but in the end it comes down to preference. Some Gm's are more discerning than others and expect more. Some just roll with it. From the [i]Laid Back Larry's[/i] to the [i]Evil Gm Overlords[/i]. Each person on the forum gravitates to certain types of GM's. Cliques are a part of life. Sure be open to new people but cliques are there for a reason. They are the group you understand and get along with. Doesn't mean you aren't open to new people most of the time, it just means you are comfortable with them. Overall, I think if we could get some more active mods who enforce the Fonz Code and at least get the starter tutorials moved or pinned so new people can find them faster instead of having to dig we would knock out a big chunk of the negative.
