Re : public lynching
I agree, and this post was approved to the frontpage by mistake by one of our admins, and I removed it as fast as I could. This post is only ment for the pending news area which is infact for members only. This is the only way I can make sure all active members read it. Also this post is not to discuss individual members it is only here to inform that we are working on the problem.

And we will also in our next update add a way for members to contact the staff directly. View

I see what you mean. The cool/lame vote works well on some type of stories but on stories like this it gets really confusing. It is very news worthy so it desverves a cool vote, but the story it self is not cool. I will see if I can design a better voting system for the next site update. View

RE: opensource or sell the code for this module?
This forum module is costume made for N4G by our inhouse programmer after my design request. I am not sure if we have time at the moment to make it into a module that can be used on other sites. But after the feedback from our users so far we could be onto something here, so I will look into the possibility of creating a module flexible enough for other sites to use. View

RE: IP Blocking
I have now removed all old IPs from our IP ban list, and if some of you were on that list by mistake I apologize for that. While we were updating the site we blocked all IP addreses , this might explain atleast for some of you why you thought you were IP banned from the site.

As for the ones of you who are blocked from viewing the site from work, it could very well be that your workplace is blocking our domain since it has the keyword "game" in it. I know many companies have filters in place that prevent their employees from surfing video game sites. We will however soon have a fix for this in the near future. View

That is a real shame, but I guess this is really not Bungies fault, they would probably have no saying in this decision. That is the problem with big companies like Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo when it comes to fan created games. They have their own legal department, who are not very flexible on such matters and the people who work with the legal stuff are not gamers. But on the other hand they do have full rights to protect their IP so it is a difficult situation. View

I am glad to see that almost all of you welcome this new feature. It is still in beta testing and as far as I know there are no other website or blog that uses a similar system, so we kind are in unknown waters here. Me and my team are also of course very posetive about using this new system, but I think we also must be realistic , it is not like this will magically make all posts worth reading or that suddenly all members are best friends and there will be no more fights. However it should help raise the overall quality of the comments so that more new members feel like jumping in to join the discussion.

We might also reduce the default number of speech bubbles to 3, as 5 might give new members too much room. So keep this in mind, that we might be changing things back and forth a bit to get things just right. View

Answer to your question
We have an inbox with all spam reports. Before we decided to lower a members number of speech bubble containers we will look over his/her history of posts. The down grades and upgrades does not happen in realtime for this very reason. Also members who have say lost a couple of speach bubbles can gain them back if they start posting good stuff View

interesting idea but
the let him speak vote does not work in real time (atleast not for now). It is a way for us to better know which member acounts should be upgradet with more speech bubble containers , like I have done with my account as a test. View
