Smashboards Under New Ownership

[Pink Reaper]

It's not really information that is important to the general posters on SWF so its not unusual that they don't share it. There's a lot of stuff that goes on back there that they never tell you guys. For instance did you know that Mic_128 and Xivii rigged the 2008 election?

I could believe Xiivi to be the type to do that. Mic... not so much that than infracting those who voted against his desired candidate, I guess?

 

[Orngeblu]

Will the Smash Boards Arena stay? D: I don't want that to be gone!

 

[Arcansi]

Can I finally be able to delete accidental double posts?

 

[Orngeblu]

I wonder when this cosmetic and lay out change will happen. o.o

 

[John2k4]

Yes the Smashboards Arena will still be here.
Not sure about the Double Posts one.

As for cosmetics - buying Premium gives you access to a lot more forum skins!

 

[Claire Diviner]

I imagine the deleting of a double post will be relegated to mods, and only if it was obviously accidental (two posts containing the same thing exactly).

 

[John2k4]

If you accidentally double post (same thing twice), just edit it saying so (if you can) and someone will soon delete/merge it. We're not going to get mad over a somewhat common occurrence.

 

[Vinylic.]

Late to the party as always, but this looks very exciting.

But SmashBlue is the best theme on the site...

 

[WindMajor]

Brawl skin tho

 

[Vinylic.]

Damn. The fact that it's exclusive for moderators makes me whine.

 

[Claire Diviner]

Is it odd that I prefer the default skin? I've tried all of the skins already, and none seem to catch my eye like the default.

 

[Noble Rebel]

Nothing hurts my eyes more than the default.

 

[.Ðempt]

Congrats AZ. Hope to see some really good changes. If any help is needed, let me know.

The Vibrant skin is my favorite but I also like the Revolution skin. Everything else makes me want to kill puppies.

Can we get some new skins?

 

[Shadic]

Nothing hurts my eyes more than the default.

Yeah, I still have no idea why "Vibrant" needs 160 pixels of flashlight on the top of the page. Besides the buttons, awkwardly glowing text, and that top bit, it's really fairly good looking. Oh well.

I remember there was a lot of really good discussion and criticism that went on when it first debuted... No idea why it was seemingly dismissed entirely.

Not that this is really the thread for it. But it would be rad to see some minor updating on old themes that could use a touch-up. (Sup Revolution.)

 

[Kink-Link5]

turn off profanity filter

1000 times this. If 13-year-olds are offended by words like **** and ****, I highly doubt they're 13. Any younger than that shouldn't be playing a rated T game in the first place.


Revolution master race

 

[Mr. Happy :)]

It was pretty interesting to look at this thread in comparison to the thread for when Gideon sold the site to MLG. I hope AZ does a more consistent job than MLG did.

 

[Life]

^^The original Smash is an E rated game

 

[AmKhokar]

Make profanity filter a switchable option that is on by default

 

[z00ted]

Wow, this must have been such a huge accomplishment for you.
I honestly can't see anything bad coming from this.

Best of luck, I'm sure this site will be a totally different place by Smash 4's release.

 

[Yodery]

Eh, remove the profanity filter, or at least make it a switchable option.

Because really, **** censorship.

 

[Pink Reaper]

Because really, **** censorship.

I lol'd

10/10

@Everyone saying remove the profanity filter: I think the very idea of there being "bad words" is just silly and absurd, but that's a whole other topic for another thread, and society doesn't see it that way anyway, so you could not really justify turning it off on that basis.

holy **** I couldn't agree more.

society doesn't see it that way anyway

Man, **** society
people are stupid anyways

 

[Spyro]

Man, **** society

Yeah, society is stupid, but the rules of society are rulers we (for the most part) have to abide by. Or do we?

 

[aRKoN]

Just Got Into Smash Boards And You All Sound Happy So I'm Happy Add Me Anyone If You Like Just Joined So HMU.

 

[Sephirothxxx]

AlphaZealot is gonna do great things with the site, I tell you.

 

[BSP]

Thanks to whoever is responsible for getting awards back up.

I just don't want to read "**** ***** ******* ***** ** ***** in the *** **** ****** **** ****" but without the censors.

Other than that, I'm not too particular. One curse word here and there is okay, but it doesn't exactly make you sound intelligent.

 

[Grey Belnades]

Just curious...if I purchase premium right now, will it go to MLG or AZ?

 

[AlphaZealot]

Premium is now going to Xyelot LLC business account, which is being (or will be) used directly for Smashboards.

I'm getting close to being ready for another update - mainly regarding servers and a better timeline of things.

Does this account for the Premium money that was being stored before the change in ownership?

 

[Naridax]

Or do we?

No. We could just do this: http://www.cnn.com/2012/12/14/us/connecticut-school-shooting/index.html



Saying that society is stupid is stupid, unless you're talking about the people that comprise society. Then, I agree to some extent. I don't care much for censorship. My parents have cursed in front of me in three different languages my entire life!

But I will never understand why people curse. "Bad words" are completely unnecessary. All I see when I see people curse is: stupid people that can't find the words to clearly say what's actually on their mind.


Back on topic, I expect great things, AlphaZealot.

 

[Spyro]

I was more more or less joking when I put in that last bit. Sorry if that was unclear.

Pretty much this.

Back on topic, I expect great things, AlphaZealot.

Agreed

Oh good, I'll purchase premium now.

 

[Akenero]

Can we get a virtual cotton candy machine???

 

[aspirin cookie]

This seems like a bad thing .

If you look at the dates of these posts you would realize you just responded to a thread from 2 years ago. Smashboards has been running smoothly (besides the DDoS's) as far as I know. Please refrain from posting here.

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

One year actually.
