• NOONE AT THE COMPANY THOUGHT IT MAY BE A GOOD IDEA TO BACKUP THEIR DATABASE SOMEWHERE?  DAILY MAYBE?

I've been thinking since this series of threads got started I should really just rename the place to "Forum PVP," but that works too.

 

That would be a fantastic idea.  It would grant legitimacy and tacit approval to people attacking one another, instead of debating the merits and viability of the suggestions.

 

 

Hire a cleaner while you're at it.  It's going to get... tasty in here.

Idea police here,

 

This idea wouldn't work because trying to get people to change their behavior to not point out a unrealistic idea for being unrealistic on a forum where anyone can waltz in a post anything, and doing so is not against the rules, is rather unrealistic. To change this would unfortunately require more GM hours for our voluntary team for what would likely be a unpopular change of the forums rules, and a societal movement the world over where people decide to stop criticizing the ideas of others on the internet. All in all it doesn't seem very realistic and it's lost my vote.

Side note, is the name "Idea police" taken yet? That's a good one.
