Whhyyyy? IRC is significantly more unsafe than Discord is. Like, significantly more.
Unsafe? It is dead, which means it is completely safe.
Love your logic, but if you ``undead``the place, well it won't be ``safe`` anymore, so this is why your reasonement is somehow paradoxal, an how can our mum ban you from discord? She isn't an admin as I know.

Noodle probably means that his mother won't allow him on Discord.

I don't really get why you can only delete your post if it's the newest one in the thread, why is that exactly?

I would rather say that we should simply hang out at MosaicMafia until mafia is unarchived. I know from experience that being impatient doesn't help a single thing; If anything it makes stuff worse. MosaicMafia is going fine, and things have calmed down(If you don't consider timocomlita causing trouble, but he is banned anyways), so let's wait and the game masters will eventually reach the conclusion that the community is ready for another mafia game here. It may take a while, but it will eventually happen.

Good decision there.

To prevent the other users to be confused why the conversation lacks something. But if you want to delete your post, let the admin delete your account. edit your post and say it's deleted. That's what the other users do.

I didn't know that it would cause an adverse effect.

There are some people who have arguments, then they erase their posts afterward because they regretted being in the argument. It's pretty stupid, especially because then it becomes very hard to descern the context out of the post.

Agreed. Why would a person decide to back out whenever he/she already put down their thoughts?

If you delete your posts as a result of regretting them, then you basically confess to doing something wrong, and you show that you are trying to hide bad things.

Since The Invasion 3: Shadow Star is basically ??? as of now, I'd just like to ask why isn't it being updated? Was it forgot about or people just didn't bother? It's been a while since there has been an update on the episode, and the fixing of the images doesn't count. Is it still being worked on?

Edit: What's with the 200x200 pixel limit on avatars?

200x200 avatars is actually pretty massive, especially considering the size limit on traditional forums.

month of july thread wrote:- A new system to encourage reviews is coming. Levels on the forum haven't been receiving the attention they deserve. We're planning to introduce a new system this month that encourage users to review levels more often. It won't be the return of Level Judges, in case you're thinking it's that, but it should hopefully increase the amount of reviews levels see.

The update of Worlds and GFX pages is planned for August as the thread says, and the new rating system wasn't given a concrete timeframe. It may look at first like nothing has happened since the announcement but that's not really true (SCC and Discord pruning happened as well)

The review stuff got delayed, but I'll make sure it's implemented sometime in August. I'll mention that, alongside other things, in the Month of August thread coming up.

It might make things a little bit more clear for users if estimated times were set out from the beginning for upcoming features. And when life happens and a goal isn't reached by the estimated time, the staff responsible can just make a comment and give another estimated extension.
