Things you might be wondering.

Credits


Credits are pratically the same things as the IPB points. You earn credits by how much letters/characters in your post. So if you just said "hello" in a post then you will get 5 points.


New Members

New Members are only allowed posting in two boards, Welcome Board and General Discussion. Once a member reaches 15 posts he will become a
"Member" and can post within any board.

The system runs through every hour on the 5'th minute. You may have to wait till the next update for your account to be changed. Sorry about the inconvenience.

Infractions
The vBulletin boards already have a warning/suspension/ban system set up. It works on a points system and we set it for 7 points is a temporary ban.

Spamming = 2 Infraction Points
Flaming = 2 Points
Trolling = 3 Points
Censor Bypassing = 1 Point
Porn = 50 Points (AutoBan)

Infractions only last for 10 days. Your record will be cleared.


That's all for now. Thanks!
~Windy.

[Smash Bro Z]

I like how the system here works. Intresting way to set it up.

[Bag filled with horse shit]

I suggested the move to vBulletin because I know it better and think it is better for VGLan's purposes.

[NightmareBros]

WTF
A ENTIRE BOARD JUST APPEARED OUT OF NOWHERE
AND IMA POSTING ON IT.
lol.
I'll behave after I get 15 posts.
And I have no clue where my post count is.
So I'll guess.
Like, when I can see the 'other' boards, I'll behave.

[Rindiny]

OK! I hope I get 15 posts soon.

[docile_chinchou]

Another points system, huh. All right...

[Bag filled with horse shit]

I know it's hard to move onto a completely new system as a user, but trust me, it's even harder to do at the admin level.

We're working on it, if you have feature requests, PM me. I'll see what I can do.

[PKMN Trainer Red]

This place is promising, Windy......But now there's not just 9 members anymore. It was so calm before....

:<

[Mud Fish Pokémon Swampert]

What about all of the "Credits" we got at the VGLan forums? Do they get transfered here? I put alot of efford into getting them! eek:

Yah the peace was fun , but we gotta grow up sometime.

Fix'd. >:C

[PKMN Trainer Silver]

Now I know more about when I can post, even though I saw that on the other forum. It fells like just yesterday I joined...*Sniff anyone have a tissue?

[PKMN Trainer Red]

Yah the peace was fun , but we gotta grow up sometime.

Right, right, time to grow up! At least I was one of the first members.



Fix'd. >:C

Yeah, it wasn't too peaceful when you joined...

[Mud Fish Pokémon Swampert]

Alright, I'm ok with the move now.

[Rindiny]

Posts like these show exactly how people can be..

[Mud Fish Pokémon Swampert]

What? I had half of a million points that I have been saving up since the place started in May! It will suck if I have to start over with them. Don't judge me "buddy".

[Rindiny]

Don't complain about it here, just get another million. I have seen your posts in the past forum, and they prove to be all complaints. That's enough to judge a person, "buddy".

[Missingno]

Sounds like a good system. I guess I just have to keep posting!

[Kanto Champion Lance]

15 effing posts? Man that sux. Big time.

[matto insano]

Fix'd. >:C

nice fix, LUNA

what the hell..how much sleep did you get?

[Rindiny]

I sleep 8 hours at night. ^^;

[Mud Fish Pokémon Swampert]

Hahaha! I complained? Sure. But let's not get into an argument. Oh, and it's actually pretty hard to get to 1,000,000 points, unless someone figured out a faster way than playing games and posting. So...I welcome you to the new forums Rindiny! Along with everyone else, WELCOME NEW FORUMS!

[Eric B. (Shnoogums)]

Interesting system there, Windy. Now, let's hope that members here (including the formely banned members) will behave well too.

[Rindiny]

The new points system gives you points based on your activity, and the additional characters and/or words in your post. Longer posts = better.

[BrandMan211]

Don't see the point in the restriction...it might turn people away.

[BHM]

I got 15 post and couldn't see the other boards, I then relogged and still couldn't see them, I then posted again ad relogged and still couldn't see it :(

[Zal]

what the heck, I have over 15 posts, but I can't see the other boards? .... oh wait *smacks face* logs out*

[Super-Yoshi]

I logged out, viewed the Board index as guest and logged in again, yet I still can´t see all the other forums. :mad:

[PKMN Trainer Silver]

That happend to me but then I posted some more and I saw the rest of the sections listed.

[Gym Leader Lt.Surge]

Sweet this stuff will make the forums a bit better.

[Hype92]

Is this why the old VGLan won't let me use my old account?

[PKMN Trainer Blue]

Wow.....All this activity at once...

Well, I'm liking the system better here, but still rather not start all over...

[Hype92]

me neither

[JCnobody]

I'm definitely enjoying the more mature atmoshphere here. Kinda refreshing if you ask me. ;D

[Zero Insanity]

What are the Credits used for here?

[James V.R]

Original post updated , It will explain why some of the promotions aren't working.

[PKMN Trainer Red]

Alrighty then, Windy, that's...great?

[SamsterBoy]

To tell you the truth I hated the idea of a new forum, but I can tell this is awesome. Just needs a few finishing touches & we'll be back on track.

[James V.R]

Thanks SB :)

Oh and now you can see who is viewing the thread. Yay.

[Shellfish Pokémon Kabutops]

Huh.

Well, now I know why there's only like two boards. I guess I need to up my posting for a short time here, because at three posts a day it'll take almost a week.

Glad to hear we're given more points for longer posts though. Hopefully that'll help flesh out the discussions and keep the not-so-witty one-word posts to a minimum.

[+M+]

Didn't really want a new forum but..eh

[PKMN Trainer Blue]

Thanks SB :)

Oh and now you can see who is viewing the thread. Yay.

I was wondering when that feature would be enabled.

Btw, I adds teh smileys :ugly:

[PKMN Trainer Red]

Hmm....

But what about carrying over the Legends?

[Gym Leader Lt.Surge]

Hmm....
But what about carrying over the Legends?

Yeah...us Legends wouldn't mind our precious badge and board privliges back.

But it's the staff's decision on what we do with the Legends system.

[Eric B. (Shnoogums)]

Yeah...us Legends wouldn't mind our precious badge and board privliges back.

But it's the staff's decision on what we do with the Legends system.

You know. They do have a point. But what about our custom titles? I'm still known as VGLan's Old School Gamer, so how can we get that back?

[PKMN Trainer Blue]

Unless there's an option to use credits to purchase member titles, I think we should make it where you can change it at any time, regardless of post count.

Many forums don't have a post count minimum on member titles.

As for Legends, shouldn't we wait until we have a bunch more members at least? Otherwise, it won't be as exclusive.

[PKMN Trainer Red]

Er...oops! Forgot something! I was talking with Windy a couple days ago, and he said that we'll likely be starting over with the Legends.

Sorry guys...

[matto insano]

Sorry guys...

for what? i'm a pitch-in

:king:

[PKMN Trainer Red]

...I don't get it.

Elaborate!

[matto insano]

i dont wanna

[PKMN Trainer Red]

D=

Further elaboration is neccesary, sir Incense.

[matto insano]

hmmm...if i said shoe-in canidate, would that be better?

[Shellfish Pokémon Kabutops]

Hey hey, does this mean I don't need 1000 posts to be eligible? I've only ever hit 1000 on one forum, in the dozen or so I'm on.

*crosses fingers on becoming a Legend*

[Eric B. (Shnoogums)]

Er...oops! Forgot something! I was talking with Windy a couple days ago, and he said that we'll likely be starting over with the Legends.

Sorry guys...

Oh well! A fresh start is always better, as far as i'm concerned. I'll await for what we'll have to do for that to even happen.

[PKMN Trainer Gold]

Like the system...better get posting.

[MageFX]

Wow, Getting points is a lot easier then. Each letter is a point. I just wonder how its possible to bypass the censorship.

[PKMN Trainer Gold]

The mods/admin could put some sort of limit per hour...or day I guess.

[Blazitits]

New Members are only allowed posting in two boards, Welcome Board and General Discussion. Once a member reaches 15 posts he will become a
"Member" and can post within any board.


oh, that's where the other boards went

[Mouse Pokémon Sandslash]

This all looks pretty good, and I didn't have that many points/credits last time so I'm that bothered about the change. All I now if I can think of something to say over the next few posts until I can get back in the other areas.

[Fox4729]

the new sytem is pretty cool but I'll miss the old fourms.

[Big Jaw Pokémon Totodile]

I'm wondering about the Avatar size and Points.

[SamsterBoy]

I'm wondering about the Avatar size and Points.

I'm more concerned about the Signature Size.....will we be able to post Codes in our Sigs so that way we can have it scroll up and down?
