Ask The Staff: Non site-related questions!

Question for mods: Is there a way to flag/mark your own threads for deletion?

If there isn't, will there be something like that in the future?

Just report your own thread and request a close. Click the exclamation mark in the bottom left corner of your post to send a report.

Though, this is mostly for closing a thread. It's unlikely we will actually delete unless necessary.

Wow, you sound so much like a mod now. -mind blown-

One more thing. Will there be an option in the future to lock our own threads? It will be very useful.

Okay thanks :D, I'll do that now
 
Here is another question.

WHY HAS MY SIGNATURE BEEN EDITED?!!!
I DID NOT PUT A YOUTUBE LINK IN THERE.
I WANT IT EDITED BACK.

It has to be the staff as they are the ONLY ones that can edit my signature other than myself and I DEFINITELY put the right link in originally as I have the entire signature saved on my computer and it says different to what it says no.

Is this some kind of nasty joke that someone has pulled?


Sounds like staff edit abusing!

OMFG...

It had the link http://www.acbay.com before, I should know, I clicked it and have edited it many, many times.

Now it has a link to the "Never Gonna Give You Up" video.
Which by the way, to kill trolls, I actually like that song. :)


PS. I am adamant that I didn't put that YouTube link in.
This is DEFINITELY someone on staff abusing the edit button, I swear on that.

I'm not a huge fan of allowing it across the entire forum, but it could be considered for the trading boards at least. We'll look into it.

Someone has maliciously edited my signature and I demand to know who!

It's possible someone did it as a joke. Unfortunately, there are no signature logs, so I couldn't tell you what happened anyway. You're welcome to change your signature back anytime you want to, no need to make a big fuss out of it.
 
Are you going to make boards for other languages?

I personally believe that these forums would benefit from a French board. I am pushing for this, since I got kicked out of the Dutch forums. I even have some votes to back me up, specifically from the following people:

- Trundle
- You
- Horus
- VillageDweller
- Kippla
- UnidentifiedFloorOrange
- Thunder
- Volvagia

More to come, thanks. If you would like to sign this petition please PM me.

Question to staff: How many votes to open up a new language board?

10 million.

umm... no... I had my signature set up fine and so I want a staff member to change it as I am perfectly sure that I did not edit that signature and add that link.

Surely editing signatures without the signature actually breaking the set rules and guidelines would be classed as some form of breaching guidelines.

The Bell Tree has and always will be a light-hearted website, the staff are laid back and can generally joke around with all the users on the forum. As Justin said, it's likely that this was done as a joke. It is not a vendetta against you and you are free to change your signature back at any time.

We're sorry if you were offended by the changing of your signature. As I recall though, you had incorrectly coded your signature beforehand and the link wasn't working anyway.

Regardless, the situation has been dealt with. It would be appreciated if you no longer persisted with these angry posts in this thread. If you'd like to continue debating, PM somebody on staff. Although personally I don't deem that necessary.

I believe I said "French Toast Board"


Also; thank you Andy, when I asked for you to edit Burrows' sig, I never thought you'd do it but now I have full nothing but love for you.

I will stop the angry posts, yes, but I have my reasons that I deem valid to go on the defensive today.

I will call it quits if someone will just edit my signature back to http://www.acbay.com
