Title: Bringing something to the table
Post by: MPTheory on February 11, 2003, 07:37:53 AM
I\'ve been thinking.  Lately, there have been a few members leave, and a little more then a handful that have been somewhat complaining about the "traffic"  of the forums.  I was wondering what would be something that all of you would like to see in the forums that cold be posted, say, on a daily basis.  It could be anything from a review, to, well anything.  You deside.  I love comming to the forums, and its cool seeing everyone pitch in on a good thread.  The way I look at it; If we post it, they will come. ;)

CELEBDAQ is a celebrity share-trading game: sign up and we\'ll give you a cool ten thousand pounds (that\'s Celebdaq pounds, I\'m afraid - not real cash!)

You use this money - and your skill and judgement - to buy and sell \'shares\' in listed celebrities. Every week, the shares you own will pay out a dividend, depending on how much press coverage those celebrities received.

Just like in the real world, share prices rise and fall as demand for them changes - so as well as receiving dividends, you can make money by buying low and selling high...

Keep one eye on the market and the other on the entertainment press, and you could soon be raking it in! And not just in pretend money - there will be a real cash prize of £100 awarded every week!



will that to ? ;)

How about a way to rate posts?  Like a approve or disapprove button on the post itself.

I think too many people would take advantage of that.  It would become a joke

I tried creating a topic, but it was deleted by a ****ing moron of a mod/admin. It was a non-serious topic that didn\'t really go anywhere, but the real issue is that is seems that you cannot post anything that isn\'t serious anymore. Stupid.

"Hi" is a topic?  You are actually complaining about someone deleting a thread called "Hi"?

Give me a freaking break.  There is nothing to do in that thread but lock it and delete it.  Personally I would have deleted the thread so you wouldn\'t get credit for the post.  The Mod simply moved the thread so you still got the tick.

But complaining about that thread will get you no where.
Title: Fear Factor

Does anybody watch fear factor I think we should have a PSX2Central Fear Factor Contest we can take pics of ourselves eating gross shit and then who ever wins and eats the groosest thing gets sammys job? :-)

That\'s actually a great idea.  I don\'t know about getting Sammy\'s job, but it could be great nevertheless.  Just because you\'d lick rat shit off a truckstop urinal doesn\'t mean you\'d make a good mod.

It doesn\'t matter what is was called. There could be a thread entitled "The Magical Jumping Chair" and it may be the best ****ing thread ever. It was supposed to be a thread that didn\'t make sense for the love of god.

I expected that thread to get closed or deleted, and that\'s exactly the point I\'m trying to make. Non-serious threads aren\'t being tolerated for whatever reason.

Not true.  That\'s like saying I hate women just because I would never go down on a 400 pound chick after a 4 hour racquetball session.

You went to the extreme of piece of shit threads and it went right where it deserved to go.

I had this idea a while back but the admins woldn\'t allow it. They can create a section where all you do is spam and your post count doesn\'t rise. That would be fun. Then I don\'t have to come here to spam :)
