Alright, Ace wanted a vote to see how many people want to close the forum games. We're thinking of closing it, because some members have been abusing this for spamming/high post purposes.

Also, these games prevent many members from looking at important topics and causes lack of participation. Everyone goes directly to the Posting section and every day, this section goes up by over 200 posts.

This section can also be used to abuse the process of going up in ranks. To rise ranks, you need a certain amount of posts, which is suppose to show activity and participation. Instead, people come here to easily attain the post requirement to go up in rank.

Removing these games would also help everyone focus more on the "Academy" part of LDA, rather than just the games. These games, according to Grace, don't require any thinking to play. "You can just type in the first thing that pops into your head."

We could start by closing certain topics, one by one. And eventually have them down. But we won't delete them, so we'll allow you to keep the amount of post count you've already attained through these games.

Well, honestly, these games should be down. So everyone please take this into consideration, and in the name of god(what the hell? O.o), do what's right.

Everyone please post what you think in response to this, and place a vote.

Although I'm an abuser, I'd vote yes, because it is being abused.

Delete every topic in this forum section, and each post. Should knock down everyone's posts a bit, and only those truly abusing it will be hurt by it. My suggestion.

Otherwise, yes close it down.

Nah. Deleting every topic would be a bad idea. Yes I'm partly saying this because I would lose a lot of posts. But mostly because I put a lot of time into these games, and if you delete all the topics, then most of the posts for the overall post count for the whole academy would go down. And none of us wants that.

I would say:

Lock everything where you dont have to think about.
So, I would keep some topics open, like atk/def game, card name game, card relation game.

Well, I know for sure some of the games should be closed, because of how easy it is to get posts off of them. (Even though I post in them myself haha Razz) As a note, deleting them won't help, I know three people who that'd have a huge effect on for post count. (Aster, Metal, Mortal... XD) Actually, a lot of people's post count would be affected Razz

As mentioned though, the games that require some thinking should be kept open, or be the last ones to be closed.

I'm voting for "some" in the poll though XD

I rather all of them be closed, but the idea of having any of them deleted is out of the question, Ace says that no topic should be deleted and that any Admin that does will be...err...punished I guess, they all go into the Archive section, so yeah, no deleting... XD

I voted "Yes" becaues of all of the reasons Aster mentioned and that I contributed to. xP

I dont know how much my opionion counts but it is true that the posting games are the more important thing for people and that includes me as abuser as my sudden rise from nothing to number 5 or 4 i dont remember in the top posters is largely attributed to the posting games. So I think little by little we can take them out but some of them can stay agreeing with Unforgiven Pretender the games that require thinking should stay at least because I'll admit I have fun spamming sometimes Razz

LOL, I see that some members are trying to get their last few spam posts in, and yeah, it's okay to spam, sorta... O_O But once this place gets even bigger we will definitely have to be taking the games down regardless of what the public says. Sounds mean...XD

I just think that you guys can think of better topics, like putting topics in the Off-Topic section, all of those, "What's Your Favorite...?" things, and other stuff. xP Just something to think about...

Alright. Most members have given in their thoughts. Since the majority of you agree with us Admins, the closing of topics will commence. I will begin by locking a few that should definitely be out. Some, I'll leave up to Grace/Ace.

And yeah I've noticed it too, Grace. Razz People are still posting. Haha

Hey I havent talked yet...

Posting games atact a lot of peopole, and it also makes peopole stay, if they weren't games my bro would had left the academy a long time ago, actualy he wouldn't evem had joined. You remember I said I wasn't going to saty in the academy for a long time when I joined? Well actualy the games are one of the reasons why I satyed.

However, some games are just being spammed to much, so I'm voting as "some" I think games that are realted with cards (duel cards game, atk/def game and card realtion game) should stay open, but games like the ban game, the guess game, the oposite game, the dueling game, the ^<v game and specialy the random game should be closed. The title game is cool, I think we can leave that one open for a while. Also the rating games (rate above's user signature/joke) should allways stay open, since those are not verry spamish.

I have bad feelings about this.


Fine though, I won't change the member's favoring, though LDA still should be different. None other academies are like LDA, at least it's nice, and listens to the people who actually runs the community.

You guyz Razz

Oh yeah, and, uh, I guess we can get the community's opinion too... >.>

And LDA is different because we have a total loser as its creator!
