  1. Yeah, the last update was back in November, and I haven't heard anything since. I'm wondering what the status is.
  2. I know this has been brought up before. I'm just wondering what is the current status of this effort? Was it decided to be impossible? SS on steam would be an incredible development for our community, I just don't understand why we aren't pushing this as hard as we can.
  3. Obviously. We do not leave it to players to decide whether another player gets (banned/silenced). That's what staff is for. Falconeer WANTS us to use such a system. This whole log/discussion is from when I "tested" it to show him how terrible of an idea it is. @Falc: I showed you that your system is just as prone to abuse as if only moderators had the gag power. They can approve/disapprove of gags just as easily as they could give them. That's nothing new. If staff DOES abuse, there are consequences, including possible firing as a moderator. We do tell people to use ?ignore. But, when someone is spamming/using racism in the public chat, that has to be dealt with using the new gag feature. We can't just tell EVERYONE in the arena to ?ignore some guy. That's just stupid.
  4. lol And, we had 5 votes: me, manwh0re, pro turret (he voted to ban, actually), the ?uestion, and Boris. You didn't have to break any rules to get gagged, under your system. That was the point. Your system turns it into a popularity contest. There is no accountability whatsoever, and anyone can get gagged for any reason. And, if you make gags require staff approval, then there is no point in having the voting system in the first place.
  5. Just curious - what's the status of getting ss on steam?
  6. Hey all, I don't know if this has been suggested yet. Let's try to get ss advertised on www.thinkgeek.com. Check it out, they're awesome and they have all sorts of video game advertising and a huge following. Just a suggestion.
  7. Hey folks, I finally registered here, since I felt as Head DSB Sysop I should have more of a community-wide presence. That is very good news that the DSB server is moving. For a long time and especially over the last few months, most Europeans have had much difficulty with lag. Lately many people can't even log into the zone, due to some mysterious routing issues. So, this is a very welcome change. Thanks PoLiX and Argyle for arranging that. Anyways, I think a change of scenery for DSB has been long needed. Our community is still very fragile especially after the events of the last year, but our staff is dedicated to making it a fun place, and I know that I personally am working with the dev team to bring in more theme weekends, and with the league staff to bring in more and better leagues. The next few months should be a pretty exciting time for DSB - not much has changed there over the past few years but now that will hopefully change.
