Maybe I'm overreacting a bit here, but I feel like over the past couple months this has REALLY been getting out of hand.  It's extremely annoying to read, and probably incredibly frustrating to people looking for feedback on their characters, not to mention flat out rude.  I think it would be a good idea if it was a minor offense at least, something that got you a staff warning and deleted post.

I agree. It doesn't contribute to the thread, and it generally annoys other posters.

My ideal punishment for those posts is for the poster to be tarred and feathered and forced to wear the scarlet letter.

However this is a forum so yeah I'd settle for the minor offense thing.

I'm also under the impression that people keep neglecting data from the game, do you guys know how PotS made his original characters? He actually studied every single game he referenced, down to the core. Doing this properly requires understanding how the original system was made, not just winging it.

That's definitely a good idea. :yes: It's basically not talking about the creation at all.

Will reiterate some of what was said in the other thread. Report it and request deletion of post. Deletions are really easy and we can do them pretty fast, but we don't read everything so you need to tell us.

very cute but it is something that's actually, y'know, legitimately something that needs to be reported, so.

and yes i know you all don't read everything but i was hoping it could bear mention in the rules or something, although i doubt that would help much

This isn't about people posting things other people don't like, it's about being a decent human being and not being a selfish dick.

I am not sure on that, there are at least two situations in which a psot like that is legit and helpful; either the guy doing/reporting the release is being purposefully ambiguous, the case being when the character shares it's name with another character from a different game and the source game is not posted like

title: "LOOOOOOL NEW RYU RELEASED"
contents: stupid, this si ryu form ninja gaiden, not ryu from sf2 lolololol

and the other case is when the original poster does not post pictures of the character (this si closely tied to the first case anyway).

Can you quote some examples of this happening? Not saying this in a "I don't believe you way", but rather "I believe you and want to see this happening for myself, but don't wanna pour through topics looking for an example".

lol, you are being too hard on the users, it's exactly as I said, the ones posting the topic did not specify which character, they brought it to themselves.

only the tekken and silver surfer ones might deserve to get their posts deleted.
