    It would be helpful if it worked and I could set up my profile.

    We have it set up so that you need 10 posts before you can set up your profile. It's to deter spammers.

    But really, maybe we should re-visit this. Spammers are gonna spam whether they have an avatar picture or not, so what exactly does it accomplish?

    We do have a YT Channel here: Gamers Forum Universe - YouTube

    I set it up a while ago and even put several vids there but no one else really participated. I remember one person sent me some video but it wasn't something I could use.

    But I'm more than willing to do it again, just need people to make the actual gameplay videos.

    We've had a few of those in the past with Left 4 Dead (2) and actually had some random League of Legends matches. But I'm also all for setting up time to have these again. Of course I'd prefer PC games.

    It deters most spammers when they realize they can't submit a post with a link in it. It also keeps the forum clean because in the past we've had spammers come and post Porn. I'd prefer to be a bit strict and avoid the whole thing.
    Do not PM me regarding your problems or suggestions for the board unless you are offering me money. I will Ignore your posts and if you bother me too much, you will be banned.

    I was mostly referring to in-profile stuff. I didn't know about the porn thing, I guess that's as good a reason as any.


    Actually, I just thought of another thing we can do more: just post. Even if a topic doesn't really interest you -that- much, at least take a look and see if you have something to add, and then add it. There won't be any discussions going on unless people discuss things.

    How would Hearthstone videos be for that channel LiNuX? Or if we could get everyone together on voicechat and playing Minecraft. I remember there being a server a while back (Might have been you Eps? Or Synge...I can't remember) where there was 3-6 members on all the time playing together.

    I'll try and figure something out. I'm strapped for time for the next couple weeks, but then my girlfriend leaves on holidays for two weeks so I'll have plenty. Maybe I'll try and do some reviews or quick plays of games in that period. I just need to learn how to use Shadowplay and get some editing program ready.

    That would be Synge's server, though I did hop on from time to time. If only I could host the world me and my little brother made as a server...

    I joined the site over three years ago and then mostly ignored it until now. My activity has been really sparse. I want to change that, and I'll try to be more active on the forums.

    Oh, it's a similar reason. Porn in avatar. And filling their profile with porn and pharmaceutical keywords which attracts more spammers because now the site shows up in Google for those keywords.

    I remember the good days . I remember leadingentertainment to. They didn't even make it this long. You have built something worth resurrecting and it can easily be done . I apologize if its common knowledge but do you have a Facebook a txt service or a Twitter ?
