CUT BACK ON THE SPOILERS

See, It doesn't feel good to be cut down,
Now, of course I was being sarcastic (as usual, lol)
but It doesn't feel good to be cut down, just saying...

Heh-heh.  You're funny, Shingu.  So very mature, also.
Sarcastic?
Or realistic?

this one has the same thing going on, but there are waaaay too many spoilers in there. it becomes a pain in the ass to open them all and then close them back up and open the next one, etc. if there was one spoiler under each heading rather than two or three, it would be acceptable.
:X

I guess the reason I put all those spoilers was because I thought it might look confusing if every header had only one header with a bunch of information in one spoiler. Not that I think about it, there are a hell of a lot there. Actually, maybe I'll redo the whole thread, it's getting kind of old anyway.

Quit spamming up this serious thread.
:'( right as I was going to compliment your sexy monkey avatar...

Hmm...I guess I'll try and keep my threads more organized from now on...
Lol, Except, I would redo the first post to make it clear that it was just a suggestion to make it look nicer, because it seems like a rule...
 
It seriously matches her hair and makes her look like a cat-woman...Not Sarcasm
I really was going to compliment your avatar, like 3 posts back, and I gave my opinion, is that so wrong.
By telling me to stop spamming, your actually spamming yourself
Nobody likes a wanna be mod...
 
locked because the both of you are massive fucking faggots for shitting up this topic.

i might unlock it in an hour or so because i actually had something pretty important to say here and don't want it to drown
 
I was gonna say this before it was locked and im gonna say it now :mad:

"lol at least we dont have nested spoilers for every character inside of the character spoiler"

god nested spoilers how i hated you :mad:
 
[/loser]

I'd like to say this should be a rule and/or enforced, because too many spoilers look bad and are annoying (I'm thinking mostly about the threads in Concept Development where each character has his own spoiler).  Just advising members, I doubt, will actually change or motivate a change.

I mean, what actions will be taken beyond this thread that says too many spoilers look bad?

This isn't so important that it needs to be enforced. Like Dr. No said, it's more advice on how to make a better topic, and if you don't follow it that's your problem.

I think that a lot of people use spoilers as an organizational tool because they see it as the standard and think there's no choice -- I was one of those people, and if I had made a project topic about a week ago, I probably would have used spoilers like they were going out of style. the purpose of this topic, I surmise, was to inform people that there are better alternatives -- not to penalize people with bad-looking topics.
 
*Hits Mukanshinblack* Don't be a freedom hater! Bad member! Bad! Go seat in a corner!

As long as they offer the required elements in their post, members have the right to organize their game thread however they want. It actually serves as a kind of quick quality control, if you wander into a thread that looks good, there is a 9/10 chance that the game itself will be good. If the thread looks like shit, chances are the game will be shit.

When I first wandered in this thread, I was thinking that Despain got yet again annoyed by some minor irritant and decided to rant. But after thinking it over for a minute, I found that he was right. Overusing spoilers Doesn't make your thread look organized, it makes it look bare and plain and empty. You're not making an accounting program, you're making a game. Show up pretty art and colored graphics! That'll grab people's attention.

Also, Shingu, you're hilarious. Probably not in the way you wish to be, though.

And Des, for the love of God, change your avatar. I feel like ccoa is staring at me and it's creepy.
