That thread on pokecommunity wins the internet. I was having a bad day until I saw that (and it's only 9:12 in the morning). Thanks for sharing!

I doubt they're much better. Notice he told that guy where to for help on his hack (when it's clearly a homebrew project that's never going to happen) instead of banning him for massive stupidity or at least asking for help making a game when he clearly doesn't know the first thing about programming.

At first I thought he was describing a new game that was supposedly in production. I laughed when he said it would have a cheat menu. The only games I've seen that try to prevent cheating more than recent Pokémon games are Rare's.

I just feel so sorry for the guys who have to moderate that place.

10. Pokemon 360 degrees will be on the PC, XBOX, XBOX 360, Playstation 2, Gameboyadvance, and Nintendo Gamecube

I literally felt my brain deflate when I read that. It was an...odd sensation.

Pokecommunity is already full of idiots.

The forum's actually become really active in the past few days. And the quality of the hacks being announced has greatly improved.

Definitely.

It's at least got me to the point where I'm not afraid to check due to mass stupidity anymore, at least...

Yes it did. Also it can be noted that it only applies to SMW hacking and Pokémon hacking, where we had most problems anyway. The crap in ROM hacking have decreased too, but probably from harsher moderation.

Hence "not that I'd do it".

Personally, I'd rather have activity here anyway, but it's up to them =P

(But I won't do that)


Could you do it for pokemon hacking and point it to pokemon community? =p

It's been a pretty impressive job of idiot filtration, yeah.

Activity has gone down for some reason, though, and it doesn't just seem like activity on the idiots' end. Maybe some of us hung around just to complain about them?

Right now, it's kinda hard to appreciate the idiot filtration because of the lack of activity. If we ever get the more experienced hackers to hang around here more often, though, this place will kick so much ass.

It's a big if, but still, I wouldn't have expected phase 1: filtration to go so well. If phase 2: reinstatement goes as well...

I'm refraining from voting until we get some more activity, and I can see how well the system really works.

Yeah, I'd say it's helping. I've noticed fewer morons since the idea, and the idiots screaming, "why is smw in the crap section?" have also disappeared, since this is now in the "Normal Section".

This idea is partly good(keeps some spammers and idiots away), but when we are asking questions we should listen to what everybody is saying, the system is also keeping some people away.

(only my opinion though)

Works fairly good, but you still get the occasional idiot. Still one of your better ideas Xk.
