You guys may or may not have noticed some changes around the forums so far.
I'm still hard at work.

But I'd like to know what you guys want done around here. This is a place for you to tell me what to do, and who knows i may just listen!

Someone wrongfully banned, forums edited-moved, ui reconstruction, new integrated features. Anything off the top of your head that you'd like to see...

Doesn't hurt to ask, and if you ask in a public channel like this we can all brain storm and see whats best for the community itself..

And let me know how im doing please?

I don't expect all of you to like me, honestly im probably one of the most narcissistic people you'll ever meet... But God complex aside I try.

Showing up and doing something, anything is a great start. I won't ever like you, you weren't born with the right equipment. Although, I hear that can be rectified in Bangcock.

There used to be a feature in the control panel where you could limit the size of pics. Couple folks got no problem posting pics 8000 pixels wide. Would love to have that option back.

yes, that was really good. Think the code went bad, and no one knew how to fix it.

I like big pictures, but this add on had a option for you to set the max size an image would be displayed in the forum. So you can post a giant pic, and it won't show up larger than 1200dpi for instance. But when you click on it, it will go to it's original size and back.

Fixed.

Yes 1200px is big enough.

It was an image auto-resizer for the people who wanted to see the pimples on Katy Perry's from Saturn. I'd love to see that back.

I'd also like a little less restriction on how often we can rep people. It might not matter now that there is more activity, but I never liked having to find random fucktardn00bs to rep so I could show some rep love to my p33ps and shit, dawg.

Also, can you tell Predator24 I'm not black?

Well, since you mentioned it...

There were a few people that were wrongfully banned back in the day.

Shasturbator
bigmac63
BlackCrypt
Mrs.BlackCrypt (simply because she is the wife of BC)
~~pendragon142000~~

Now, if you look at the banned list, you won't see any of those accounts. That's because, for some reason, Lucas changed the account names to "DSF Guest X" where X represents a number. I've looked through threads and used Google to find posts to ident them. I looked for a quote that would show who was who. I can provide those source links if you'd like proof. Anyway, here's the rundown:

DSF Guest 1 = Shasturbator
DSF Guest 2 = bigmac63
DSF Guest 3 = BlackCrypt
DSF Guest 4 = Mrs.BlackCrypt
DSF Guest 8 = pendragon142000

I believe DSF Guest 6, who was pat_riot, was also banned wrongly, but can't remember the specifics. I can also provide you with account names for the rest (7, 9 and 10), but not 5 as that account had no posts and was probably just a spammer. However, 7 & 10 were justified bans and I doubt anyone wants them back, and 9... well, I don't think she'd come back anyway.

IIRC, the reason 1-4 and 8 were banned was because they started calling Lucas out on some shady shit he was doing; namely, editing people's posts to make them say something they did not originally say. I'm sure he tried to pass it off as a joke, but it's not cool and obviously an abuse of power so I believe they were justified in being pissed about it.

Why fix these accounts? Simply so they could come back in with all their previous posts and sign up dates intact, if they so choose.

Moses, you've already shown that you are different from Lucas by choosing mods. Fixing these unjustified bans would be icing on the cake.

EDIT - Also, I 3rd this:

These giant pictures are annoying.
