I'd say general, unless it's about video game programming specifically. If we have a Mindstorms forum, that seems more than appropriate. Can you make a Windstorms forum? Also what is a quarantined post?

YYYYYYO!
Curious: I can tell that there have been one or two new posts in my topic, the Star Wars News Aggregator, because it says that Astro posted a couple hours ago. But when I open the topic, the last post was made days ago by someone else.
So I'm wondering, is moderation going to be slow for that topic due to the spoilers and speculation posted there? I understand if it is, haha.
Thanks. 😁

Hola, girls and guys! I keep seeing stuff floating around about an archive/library. Where is this located? I can't seem to find it (but that may just be because I'm blind, lol.)
yep.

Don't worry, you're not blind! Or at least if you are, it's unrelated to not being able to find the archives The archives are not complete and will not be until after the LMBs close.

Why is it that I when I tried to look at my avatar setting all that came up was a message saying I don't have enough posts to make an avatar? I got pretty much the same thing with my signature.

As we have recently updated our avatar guidelines we now require that all users send their avatars to either myself or Keplers for moderation before we will add them to your profiles. As Keplers is currently on holiday I suggest you send it my way.

As Keplers is currently on holiday I suggest you send it my way. How do you "send" an avatar:S? Not to mention it's a pain having to wait for one of you to respond to change it. Personally I think we should just delete avatars if they are bad. Everybody here was on the LMBs and would not break rules, our judgement is as good as yours. You need to give some trust;). After all, even you guys are LMB users and kids just like us. Well, not me, I am an adult now, but you get the point:P.

After all, even you guys are LMB users and kids just like us. Well, not me, I am an adult now, but you get the point:P. Through the messaging system in the bar at the top of the page - you can only use it to message staff members.
If you don't want to have to wait, you don't have to change your avatar. I get an alert on my phone whenever someone messages me so I am really able to handle it quite quickly, along with the fact that I am here around 8 hours every day... the numbers are similar for Keplers - time really isn't a relevant concern, as we don't intend to leave users waiting long.
The official administration position is that due to the potential for abuse, we are making avatars moderatored, the same as we make posts moderated. We are extending a service the LMBs didn't, and so we have to ensure we maintain the standards and values they would uphold, should the offer the option to change avatars. We want users to be able to express themselves in their avatars - see your avatar, Astro704's avatar, Keplers' avatar - but we have set guidelines to uphold our rules in these avatars. We moderate posts so it makes sense to moderate avatars as well.
Also, for the record, most of our staff are adults too.

If you are going to have moderated avatars, why not just do it so they stay the same until they are moderated? It is just VERY confusing, especially for new users, to have to send the moderators the picture, get approval, and then update their avatar. If you really want moderated avatars, you NEED to find a way to do it that way.

Avatars will stay exactly as they were when you submit one via PM to an admin. Administrators will take care of updating it. All a user has to do it send it to an admin.

So you just turned off the function where we update them? That is fine, I thought you meant we would get a "go ahead" and then we could change it, and if we changed it on our own we would get banned:S:P.
