It's probably a filter he's got installed, like what happened to g.k.
His school will just be blocking it because schools like imposing a chinese like grip on  their internet connections.
Still, there was a poll, and (unfortunately IMO) show new posts won out so....I guess you'll just have to convince ACAMS to stop making naughty sounding threads  :laughing

I fully agree. What the silly people who voted for show new replies forgot is that using ignore topics, one can simulate 'show new replies' with the unread replies page. We cannot simulate the ignore topics with the 'show new replies' page.

Yep, you don't even need to simulate it, unread replies on it's own is more usefull than new replies anyway.
I'm already getting annoyed with having to skip through all the story time stuff to find some of the threads i'm actually interested in.

Don't really know much about getting round that (assuming that that is actually your problem) you could always try a proxy though  :mrgreen:

Tell your parents to look at the site and unblock it....there is nothing bad here and I am tired of removing topics because of YOUR stupid filters.

Nothing happened to G.K., he was just afraid it would block him......I am not renaming or removing topics, UNLESS they are REALLY bad and out of line!

We I will NEVER change the name of a topic because YOU think YOUR filter may block it. I won't allow really bad named topics, but when you cry about fark.com as being bad that goes too far.
 
You will either accept it, get put in Filtered, or get blocked.

Sorry ACAMS, looks like it didn't work.
Still, i'm not sure about the whole of junkyard, there are some good topics in there, it's playground that seems to be the one  that people want to skip.

Hey, I didn't mean to cause you 100% irritation, it was your idea and I just thought it was a decent one.
Besides, people will forget about ignore topics soon enough anyway, they seemed to survive without it beforehand anyway.

Who would you turn it over to?  :confused:


I've thought about this too, and honestly it worries me.  I mean, we all depend on ACAMS to provide a place to talk about RA2, post bots and run tourneys.  And unfortunately we all sort of take it for granted.  What would happen if we didn't have ACAMS?  Ever think about that?  At the moment, all our eggs are in one metaphorical basket.  We used to have goose too, but now it's just ACAMS.


Keep at it, ACAMS.  I appreciate all your work for this place.  And you know what they say about power... those who want it are the least deserving to have it (and, presumably, vice versa).

And to think, I never even made the username as a joke. I used it in the original chatbox because I couldn't think of a better name. I just joined with that name hoping someone would recognize me. Oh the irony.

In other news, I recently looked at my first posts for nostalgia and noticed that my second overall post (first one still visible, the thread seems to be gone for the actual first one) referenced one of Nary's bots being a "sit-and-spinner". AKA SnS. Oh the irony.

Worst part is that it was a rammer that really could never have been an SnS. What was I thinking. XD
