Announcements, guys!

YOUR WEATHER FORECAST FOR THIS WEEK IS: SUNNY!
That's right, guys! It's going to be beautiful and sunny until Monday, Sept. 6! Level playing fields, but who wants to battle? It's wonderful picnic weather!
Highs: 85ºF/29ºC. Lows: 64ºF/18ºC.


Also guys, we've received a few complaints about the overabundance of memes in the OOC community. We accidentally let it get a bit overboard and we don't want it to become too cluttered, so in a few days, we are going to make a meme-community for Route. For now and for the future, all memes posted in the game communities and the meme community must be mod approved. More details to come soon!

And don't forget our monthly activity check, which is.... the post right after this one!

I think maybe you should just set posting to the meme comm on moderated, then you can just go on every few days, pick out a couple meme posts from the queue and approve them, and basically control the meme influx. idk. C:

That's actually a pretty neat idea! Thanks!

[foolishwren]

I second this idea, it's a good one!

[appliances]

because having a week of no memes end with a day of three or four or five memes is a well-organized system, of course.




not disagreeing with the "set the posting format as moderated" bit because if you (the mods) feel like keeping a meme/spam comm moderated then I'd probably vote for that rather than "go contact a mod first" because etc etc people have taken care of that --

but really, if people don't like the influx of many memes at once, running a meme comm by posting a bunch in a single day every few days kind of defeats the purpose.

ignoring, of course, that by not approving every meme for whatever reason (because I think the Route playerbase is mature enough to not try to post inappropriate memes or something that wouldn't get "approved," you know?) may or may not lead to "the mods are playing favorites with whose memes they post!!" complaints.


so yeah.

We wouldn't just go approve six or seven in one sitting, we'd pace them out a bit. I don't think we'd decline any posts unless we had repeats, like links for the LJ-wide ones. And in chose cases we'd just go with whichever was posted first. Though I do understand what you're saying. We'll keep tweaking it.

uhhhhh. I was just making a suggestion, dude.

seriously wtf is your problem.

[these_balls]

Maddy, that's very impolite. Laura has as much right to comment about the changes as you do, and there's no problem with disagreeing with another person's views. There's no need to be rude about it.

Sorry. :\ Honestly her comment to me pissed me off because I felt attacked for making a suggestion that was in line with what you had proposed and she jumps on me to tell me why I'm wrong instead of just of posting her own thread.

[these_balls]

I don't think she was trying to attack you, just get her own two cents in since her thoughts were connected to your comment. Stay calm! We'll sort it all out soon enough.

Sorry, I'm not trying to come across as full of rage (I really hope I didn't XD ) just ticked.
