Ask The Staff: Non site-related questions!

Yes after a while they are moved to the Sage user group which is for former mods/admins. Unless the mod in question is Sporge, who we decided to keep captive in our base.

I still think there's something there between you guys.
 
So... a week or so ago I noticed that one of the TBT staff must've been playing with the idea of making a sub-board off of Re-Tail for villager giveaways/trades/auctions. It never opened and it's gone. What happened with that idea?

I really liked the idea of villager stuff being put off in its own place, personally. I think it's starting to clutter up the Re-Tail board too much. I only look at Re-Tail for buying/selling/trading items, and the amount of villager related threads has really ballooned in the past few weeks. Sometimes half of the threads on the first Re-Tail page are about villagers.
 
Don't worry, it hasn't been cancelled.

The main reason it was hidden is so we can set-up all the necessary topics (for rules and the like). Hopefully we'll have it up soon.

TBA. ;D
 
Is there a way to add an Admin to a PM chat? I have someone accusing me of Scamming them, and I am at a loss of what to do.

You can report the PM. When you're in the PM, there will be a little triangle with an exclamation point inside of it. Click that and it'll send you to the report page.
 
This was lost and hasn't been answered, so i'll say it again.

Can we sticky the Ask a Question in New Leaf thread? Firstly, it has nearly over 500 pages of Q&As, so it's pretty popular. Secondly, it prevents new forum-goers from spamming threads with simple questions, such as "what is the diving trick?" if the thread goes to Page 2 or something. Lastly, we are running short on stickied threads in the main ACNL forums ;c

Please do consider this, mods and admins!

This wouldn't completely eliminate the problem but would help. I've seen people make Katie threads when then post if you have Katie thread was right there lol. (Speaking of which, maybe sticky / make a section for Katie, Katarina, Island tours, turnips, to help keep the train station more organised?)
I know there are stickied threads for say turnips in train station, but if you have a high price you want your own thread, so you can have guest lists and rules etc. And I have seen these made in different sections, train station, retail etc, so if they had a place it could help? Maybe...

I suggested that once, but Prof said that's what the Train Station is for.
 
I'm curious - what level of cursing would be considered acceptable? I searched the forums a bit and took another look at the rules, so if I somehow missed it, then excuse my derpiness.

Anyway, light cursing is pretty instinctive for me, so it's not at all uncommon to see me tossing the word 'damn' around. I have no intentions of using the f-word or anything really hardcore like that, given that it is a kid/teen oriented game and all, but yeah.

Some forums that have a lot of younger visitors are really anal about even the lightest stuff, which is why I'm asking. So if saying 'damn' or even using insults like.. 'jerk' or 'twit', aren't acceptable, then I'll stop.

I think the unacceptable cursing is the kind that offends people. I read somewhere that when a bad word is said more than 4 times in a movie, it needs to be PG13 or up.
