Ask The Staff: Non site-related questions!

I'm curious to know, when a thread or something is reported does it immediately goes to all the moderator's and administer's mailboxes?

Oh god that would be horrible. lol

No, we have a board where all of the reports are sent. That way we can all see what the report was about, who did the report, and what they did.
 
um i'm just wondering, how do you get a gif in your signature? i noticed some people have gifs in theirs and i was just wondering if i need to buy something in the shop or if i'm even allowed to at all.

Messed up my first post. Uploading signatures directly to TBT doesn't allow animated gifs.
What everyone else does is uploads to an image host off-site like imgur or photobucket.
 
If you could pick your name colour what would it be?
 
We'll usually look into things so long as it's reported or we're aware of it. Granted, getting concrete evidence isn't an easy task.

Hmm, so let's say I hold a raffle and accidentally time traveled to the wrong date, missing him in boxes. 5 people give me a bad wifi rating. What now?
 
Wifi ratings are really supposed to be used AFTER interacting in New Leaf. Not before or just because you're mad at someone.

Of course, that's not to say you'd get off the hook. When you want to trade a villager and you've chosen your winner and they don't get the villager due to your negligence you might get a warning/infraction depending on how often you let it happen. But as said before, proof is really what's needed and it's really hard to come by. There are lots of reasons why someone might have let the villager go void but for the most part, it's your responsibility to get your villager to the new town if you decide you want to give it away.

Gotcha. Gotta be extra careful. I already TT'ed one person and was lucky enough the person wasn't even too mad.
Thanks, guys!
 
I am having a post merge glitch again. Even though someone posted after me all of my posts are merging up above theirs to a previous post of mine. It's happening on my Streetpass Items thread in retail.

I've noticed this has been happening on certain threads in the forums. Sometimes someone will post and it won't even show up, but the thread says they're the latest one posting on it. This is something I'm also curious about, and would like to hear a mod's answer.

I am wondering if Post Merge could just be disabled to avoid the issues that keep cropping up from it.

You're the only person this has been happening to, so I suspect that the problem is on your end.


The post merge has cleared up a whole lot of spam from other members, so I doubt that it's going to be removed. I do feel bad that you're having these problems but there really isn't anything that we can do about it.
 
Pretty much slept and played Diablo III the entire time.
 
I am trying this again. I have an Animal Crossing blog ? la (AC Newleaf blog) hich has 12 000 different visitors a months (look at my signature). Not shabby at all. Most of them are from France & Qu?bec. I tried setting up a forum for my site but it's incredibly hard to start up a forum with enough members to have a daily activity that entices more people to subscribe to - notwithstanding the fact that I have no real in editing php files.

I'm asking the Bell Tree forum if they could examine the possibility of opening up a sub forum for French speaking players with the normal categories : ACNL general chat, Animal villagers Trading Plaza, 3DS code exchange, etc. Everything is already set up for this board. It would only need some french translations I could provide. I could also act as a moderator for this sub forum. You could also answer this through a private message. I would also provide a direct link on my site's menu to the French speaking sub-forum.

With all due respect,

Sub-forums in different languages probably isn't going to happen, at least not any time soon. We don't have anybody on staff to moderate them so it becomes incredibly difficult to make sure everything is legit. We've tried it previously with Dutch, didn't work out.
 
I could always act as a moderator. Anyways, I don't want to push the idea down anyone's throat. I thought it could work since there are more French speakers than Dutch speakers playing Animal Crossing in their own language.
