Actually, the primary reason is spam. In some situations, IL is correct but yes somebody’s first post could be a link to a map so that you could talk about strategy.
10 posts is either very hard or very easy but I think if you dive in and respond to a few posts in a constructive manner, you’ll find it’s quite easy. One idea is to revive a really old conversation with your ideas on it.
@Imperious:
Because we don’t want spam. Your first post and you want a link usually means you could care less about this site and just want a shout out.
Just post about the game in some meaningful way, sharing your ideas, strategy.
Moderators should copy and paste the rules in their entirety into any post
Yes good point i was gonna make. The text of the rules should be crafted in a manner where exact conduct code can be copied and posted in these threads for consistency. This not only treats bad posts universally, but gives moderators a constant reference to the rules so they understand them.
In the Forum Help there are examples of the various BB codes there. I noticed the samples for table cells shows boxes/borders around the cells, but when I try to use it it puts things in rows and columns, but not with borders (see example below).
| col1 | column 2 | #3 |
| Text 1.1 | t-1.2 | row 1 col 3 |
| a | b | c |
| x | y | z |
Is there something I can do to get the cell borders to show up on the forum-tables, or is there some sort of site configuration that does not allow this? I was experimenting with some table-based things for the forum and I think the borders would make it much more readable.
