Helping the forum to stay clean

[O Ilusionista]

Hello to all. DC accepted my suggestion about having a global moderator on the forum in order to arrange threads, leaving threads really useful and sticking topics,  among other things. I will be responsible for this, and I want to work in the best possible way.

I have noticed that some sections are confusing, like the Scripting area. Topics of tutorials are mixed topics with help request, which impairs reading the threads and makes users life difficult because they can not find it, in an easy way,  what they are looking for.

Therefore, I intend to move threads that deal specifically with tutorials for the Tutorials section, leaving the area of scripting For questions.

The first action I took was making the Beastie's topic "Helpful link" fixed, since it brings a lot of useful information.

If you have any suggestions, write here.

Thank you.

Way the go, buddy! That is going to be very helpful for you to organize topics matching to fit the right sections. Well, I gotta say, man. Congrats. Thanks DC, for making him as a global mod (not module, but moderator). (I wish I was one to help staying clean, but it's okay.)

Already made it stick
Btw, DC said it wasn't him but another admin which made me moderator. So thanks anyway

I moved some of the scripting topics to the tutorials board already. I will leave a warning about the move for some days then I will delete it.

I would to say congratulations on the new position Q and also taking the mantle of keeping the threads clean and straight with all the new members that is joining the forum.

Also I like to touch on having a global moderator is necessary since DC had hands full of keeping the site up and running and to deal with members who have a stick in the you know whos. Anyway, congrats on the position friend.

No that WAS me, I made you moderator. 

When I said "wasn't me" I was talking about the sidebar question you asked me. No one can add to staff without consulting me.

Good work Ilu! I'll see the cleaned up forum later cause I'm reading forum from lowest section first .

BTW while we're discussing about forum cleaning, let's discuss about Modules section. If you enter that part, some members posted WIP threads on main section instead of inside WIP section.
Well, clearly those should be moved but what I'd like to discuss is what should main section used for?

I think we should also work on adding some the best tutorials etc. to the wiki.

DC got the wiki problem: he needs to, manually, create a account for everyone which wants to contribute, thanks to spambots. So, if anyone wants to contribute to the Wikia, send a PM to DC.

Yeah, I saw it. Dunno why, I wasn't able to access this forum for all the day. I think they are blocking this site at my job
or its just a route problem: the browser was just in a search for the server forever...
