discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

I'm actually very happy that they have such a system and that it requires lots of activity. Helps the community be active as a whole which is great to see.

Yeah, it leads to some spam, but it does help keep the community more active than it would otherwise be.

True, the mods seem to be on top of it though. Seen some banned accounts and warnings lol. Rip spammers

sadly the community should be more active in game section rather then in a single thread with more the 8600 pages, I hope they should balance the rewards to move the community where it's needed

It still costs 10 AC to make a new thread to "prevent spam", right? So noone wants to make a new thread unless they're going to get eight likes on their first post or whatever, to balance out what they lost, versus just posting once in an existing thread,

I think so, but looking at game threads they have few replies and this is strange because a lot of us are here to play them

I agree its good for the community but I gotta talk to people and that's scary

Good point. That's the reason I don't make new threads, but if it were free, there would be tons more spam. Maybe a system where once you have enough comments or likes on your profile, the price to start a thread is lower. I don't know.

I'm not sure about others but usually I like to start feeling familiar and getting to know people in communities before going to the games sections. Hence why this thread can be great even though it does have most of the activity as you said. But will probably start trying some games and commenting on them later. I imagine there's a level of drop-off in terms of people before they start making their way to the games sections?

 

[Autolycus]

Yeah, or you get one "free" thread every 72 hours or something? Every small-seeming change has got to be programmed in I guess.

10 AC is enough to make people go to an existing thread when the alternative is that much. I agree that a slightly cheaper price after some time isn't a bad idea

I doubt that the price is stopping the spam, you can obtain some AC by commenting other threads, then you can create your own thread which could help you to obtain more AC by interactions about your topic. It's just to avoid bored kids from spamming when mods are offline

it keeps people active in all the active threats which is mostly here and the daily threads anyway.

"free" thread for everyone can still lead to spam. If 20 people create a new thread in one hour, it can get clogged real fast. I like the idea, but a form of punishment, like losing 10 coins for a spam thread, would make it very viable in my eyes. Complement it with a 1 week treshold for new account to create threads, and you can make it a bit more lively here.

i played subnautica and enshrouded this time enshrouded is in this final version finally and it has nothing of the start of the early access .. i hate early acess game and so many game go by this early thing for 1 or 2 year sigh...

 

[RiverMaiden]

Hi chat! It's a bit weird to ask here but none of my friend groups play so I'm trying my luck.

Anyone know if that Granblue Relink game is worth playing? There's a DLC coming out some time this year and I used to play the mobile game a long time ago, so I was curious if it was worth the price tag ($40 for the base game + however much they reveal the DLC costs).

Early access games are an investment to support the game development, it's more like a crowdfunding and it's necessary for indie games.
Of course some times the original idea can't be achieved and users will get disappointed, but otherwise without the early access such games could never exist.

yeah I know, that's why I avoid the hype around games, to me games exist only when I see a review post release and then I evaluate if I wanna play them
