moonshineshadow: If you don't want to to this thread anymore, I could take over. Not sure if we need to open a new one or if they could just change the OP to a new user (because this is possible in other forum software, no clue about how it is here). But I guess you already contacted Judas about a lock?
Surething, if you want to :)
I already asked a lock to Judas , but i didn't get any response.... so ...
UhuruNUru: As for Rep I don't know why anybody cares about such things, I've discussed this, before, and the link posting issue, was the only reason for caring, and as was pointed out above, the in quotes workaround, negates that issue anyway.
I will make it clear : my rep was taken to the ground in 6 months and the issue isn't resolved and won't (you have no idea through what i gone through.... GOG is just awfull on this matter). It's abused from YEARS.
Abusing the rep. system is a violation of the GOG's users agreement (point 9 section f) from my understanding , i don't care to my reputation , BUT what i care is : some assholes stripped my ability to post link.... there's a workaround to this but i don't want to ressort to it. GOG's users agreement is there to be respected; if GOG ignores it's own users agreement... where are we going ?
Bots could hit an account 6-12 points per 24h , so an average user can't gain the same amount of points in the same times. Technically bots interfere with GOG's forum software.
I fed up of GOG's lack of communication & letting the situation rotting for so long.
HypersomniacLive: I'm very sorry to hear that you're giving up on this thread and us. If it's only the hindrance of not being able to post links, there is a way around it (as JMich already let you know), and I'd ask you to reconsider. But I understand if there are other reasons. In any case, thank you for starting this thread and giving us all a place to report broken things, and all he work you've put into it.
Someone else could take over in this case; moonshineshadow already volunteered, and I'd also gladly have done it, if no-one else wanted to.
If your decision is final, I kindly ask you to postpone any requests for a lock, to give your successor time and the chance to clarify things with you before taking over.
what i explained above should answers everything.
I'd like to continue to maintain this thread, but not in those conditions.... I'm pretty aware the rep. system is broken.
To sum up : GOG's doesn't give a shit of the problems in the forum (sorry Johny. but fixing the forum here & here isn't the solution) / The community (most users) finds everything is perfectly normal.
