1. What is the one thing which would definitely make you wish to stop using this forum. Something which would make it no longer acceptable to you.

2. What would make you want to stay. A feature added to the forum (or taken away) which would make it more appealing to you.

1. Sounds silly but I will leave when I stop enjoying it here for whatever reason. Too many people seem to stick around when they obviously don't like it here anymore.

2. I'd like to see some older mods (idea stolen from Hobbes) not to replace any current mods, but I agree with Hobbes that the modding role is for an older head.

1) Like Cheese I will leave here when I dont enjoy it any more, I did it when I first joined and I would do it again.

2) I'd like to see everyone getting on again ;)

Well actually, I'm seriously considering leaving the forum now.

Reason to leave: I'm sick and tired of the arrogance of some of the members.
Cheap shots at noobs, mod bashing & zero consideration for folks with lesser internet connections.
It's all getting very old and very boring.

Reason to stay: Checking the forum has simply become a habit that may prove hard to break. Time will tell, I suppose.

1. When things gets boring enough.

2. Of course, AntiSpam has to go. In fact, Im hoping that there would be a Clean Install
of the next Official IPB software, or whatever is the choosed brand.

Also, I'd like to see some dark skins added here, brights screens gets to my eyes.

1. As long as there is something to complain/rally/cause anarchy about to make the board better, I'll be here. But a perfect board would be even better.
2.{I}{K}{E} being fired as a mod.

i'd leave if hardware world was taken away.

i'd find it more appealing if all the mods would work together and do their job properly.

1. Would be along those lines.

2. Would be the end of the above, and I like the direction we seem to be moving in re: bt and such.

Overall, less the bickering, this place is pretty good.

I gotta say though, I have no problems with any of the mods. When I joined, they were all regular members and the reason I stayed on here. All I would ask is that they all give reasons for and back up their decisions(whoever that mystery mod is).
*sorry for that bit of kissing, withcheese. I swear to save the rest for you :P *

Bahhhh light is bad, *hisses*

But, I&#39;d also like some new skins, and the banishment of Ant-Spam Security.

I&#39;d leave if:

The Lounge was closed.
Those people don&#39;t belong in the real &#39;worlds&#39; :P

I&#39;d like it better if:

The remote-image-resize thing was set to a larger size...400px it too small.

Avatar width were widened...the tables aren&#39;t any smaller due to the 80x80 restriction. 100x100 would be nice.
And no, it doesn&#39;t affect 56k&#39;ers because they have the option to disable sigs & avatars in their profile just like everyone else.

I honestly never really see the anti-spam thing, so I can&#39;t say as it bothers me at all.

Thread title editing was enabled.

Perma-bans were reserved for the most severe grievances.

People didn&#39;t whine so goddamn much.

Well we would still have the same 100kb file size limit so it would make no difference to 56k&#39;rs. ;)

so mods need to be older as 42 ;)

He said older, not elderly&#33; :P

I&#39;d leave when I&#39;m without any internet access of any sort


I&#39;d like a new skin with white font on black background... Easier on the eye (a little depressing though&#33;)

I would always stop in. ;)

To make it better.....(this is from an older post)

unban everyone. I have said that I see why people that were banned got tossed out but that doesn&#39;t mean EVERYONE can&#39;t start fresh. If they go down the same path though...............

reset everyones post count

reset the count for stars to their original status

make Lounge, Talk Club, Funny Stuff, Sportsworld, and WN&E posts not count

moderate spammers more in places other than the Off-Topic sections and put Sportsworld in the Off-Topic section btw

implement an easy way for this site to make money (I can&#39;t believe this site

doesn&#39;t turn a profit with all the traffic) no porn, no spam btw

moderate mods who aren&#39;t moderating fairly (why alienate your potential customers?)
help coordinate FST UK meetings and FST USA meetings.

organize categories and topics better.

make it known that if you are banned you reeeeeeaaally fucked up. You disregard the board and it&#39;s members and you&#39;re outta here. I&#39;ll ban your whole ISP&nbsp; I&#39;m pretty fair minded and would not need a poll to ban someone.

make avatars bigger and make sigs slightly smaller or leave the same

have really cool skins (including a black background)

have contests

make folks who reeeeally contribute (always helpings out, and making guides and such) Forum Stars (probably have a different name). They obviously care enough to constantly and consistently answer questions. I&#39;d give them some power.
