Forum Members
 
Will the moderators ever be accepting new accounts to the forums? According to the website our last 'new member' was Twinny back in April.

Unfortunately no. Graalians.com membership was an exclusive limited offer and now it will no longer available.

Alex Damian 08-20-2016 05:35 AM

That's kind of dumb imo. What happens when most of the members now adays are gone?

It will be abandoned.

Well that's a bummer, I kind of miss seeing several players on the forum online at the same time.

MrSimons 08-20-2016 07:08 AM

Maybe Rufus has officially decided he hates us and is just gonna wait it out till we all leave.

Sardon 08-20-2016 07:38 AM

if this forum does die a new one can be made.
The only challenge is getting people to move onto that new forum.
I actualy ran a small forum centered on allowing graalians to chat about anything no matter how sick some threads were.

Moderation in the past year or two has not been very good.
I think we should get newer mods as some current one(s) are abusive towards users and make conversation and expression of different opinions impossible.
Several users were banned from the forums or punished in otherways including myself.
I would not be surprised if this thread is deleted or closed within a few minutes from this post.
Or if this post is flat out deleted from the thread without a reason.

Alex Damian 08-20-2016 07:40 AM

Yeah I was wondering how the hiring system worked here, I don't think I have ever seen a hiring thread for the forums.

I was also thinking of maybe creating a new forums if this one ever died out, but I am sure the owner/mods would surely start accepting new accounts if needbe.

SomeGuy 08-20-2016 07:51 AM

Pretty sure people get banned for a reason...the admins wont just ban you for no reason.

Alex Damian 08-20-2016 07:59 AM

Pretty sure no one claimed people were getting banned for no reason on this thread

Unless this post below claims it, I wasn't exactly sure what he meant by it. But it doesn't clearly state 'no reason'

we should counteract this hate by spamming every thread. one spam = one forum love

John 08-20-2016 04:26 PM

We don't need more idiots on the forum anyway.

Twinny is the founder of this web. I think they closed it to prevent spam accts.

it does suck, we can't hear the voice of new graalians who would want to join the forum.

Areo 08-20-2016 10:32 PM

NEW GRAALIANS ARE BEING OPPRESSED PLEASE HELP

disliking the content I post is not a valid reason to punish an acount.
I have only made one thread that was actualy against forum rules
That being The Rule 34 Graal thread
Allthough I must protest i did warn viewers in the op that the content posted would be more mature and is not intended for younger audiences.

My other threads have been clean but people have still been assigning me the "forum troll" archetype.
I could show you a screenshot of a ban reason exept I can't post pictures on this forum because of our mods.

But I can quote the latest ban reason I received being "SHUT THE **** UP"
If you would like to receive the screenshot of that ban I can provide you with it via email or skype.
This post must survived or our freedom of speech is ****ed.

Albie 08-21-2016 09:25 AM

i was banned because i said ivy looks like a horse!!!

It was the reason you were banned because it was a direct quote from a post you made to someone for no reason (also just made a similar post which I only deleted and did nothing more, you're welcome!!)

Freedom of speech doesn't give you the right to say whatever you please on the internet, especially when it's harmful towards other users.

You agreed to follow the forum rules which you often violate, not really our fault.

Eugeen 08-21-2016 01:27 PM

The question is though, will Graalians ever allow new people to register or will we have to start moving to a new forum eventually?

Bryan* 08-21-2016 01:45 PM

Will Graalians ever accept new members? Will Colin annihilate all trolls with bans? Will the forums ever cease to exist? Find out next time on Graalians.

Weeno 08-21-2016 02:18 PM

You guys should be thankful because you wouldn't imagine what graalians would be like with the zone community

This show is dead.

Nah but seriously, noticing a serious lack of activity on the forums.

I hate to say it, but I think the forums are actually dying.

WaFFL3Cake 08-21-2016 03:08 PM

lol this is my 3rd account on these forums, yet others cant make one. i made my first forum account the day that Graalians was announced, but i was too young and had whatever age restrictions. i guess i made another one shortly after to bypass that, but i never used it anyways. i lost the login to it, or the account was deleted or something though i dont think i ever posted anything. so when i decided to start using this website last year, i logged into my original account (keep in mind that this is 5 years later), i still had those age restrictions or something, and i couldnt access the user control panel due to my account not being verified? finally, i decided to make an account going by the name i used to use on playerworlds, WaFFL3Cake.
THE END

Never.

Sir Travis 08-21-2016 06:10 PM

There is a large demand for new membership?

This forum is like walking through a minefield while dodging bullets
It has a rich tapestry of history that honestly keeps most of us silent anyways

yeah me too :(

John 08-21-2016 08:10 PM

Fine someone should make a thread with a poll like a petition saying registration should be opened again and if everyone agrees with it, Rufus should take it into consideration because I have seen alot of players on classic asking to join here. I mean they can't go to Era-Go or Zone so here is the best option. We just need more moderators to handle alt accounts cause I know Rufus, Dusty, FP4, Imprint, and Colin are the only mods left. I have seen dusty and fp4 delete posts before so they are secret mods.

Alex Damian 08-21-2016 09:52 PM

In all honesty I understand the alt account issue, and I do realize how easy it is to mask an IP, but I just wish the playercount could go up on here. I have also seen a lot of players wishing they could have a graalians account It's where we can all voice opinions on every single graal server, show our artistic abilities, scripting abilities, meet new people, etc.

Distorted_P2P 08-22-2016 04:08 AM

I actually gave out accounts to some of the members last time registration was closed because I stocked up when registration was open lol

Look, if you're looking to shut out all people to avoid getting ****posting ******s then chances are you're also losing the opportunity to get actually cool people in.

Eventually this place will dry up and there will be nothing left to discuss.

Unless that's the whole idea of locking up registration then this forum may as well be dead.

Sir Travis 08-25-2016 05:42 PM

Perhaps a new sass thread for talking sassy but still keeping classy in the oldest traditions of graal?

A new thread called "The grease pit" perhaps? :D

I don't wanna migrate

Alex Damian 08-25-2016 07:07 PM

I don't wanna migrate either I just meant if worst comes to worse no one uses the forums anymore. Then again I don't feel like owning a forums lol
