I just feel a lot of them could be redone, condensed or excised outright if possible. Example - I don't think 'Announcements' needs to be at the top of every page. If so, put them under one topic with a 'Please Read First' type title. Perhaps it's just me being anal and nitpicky about the 'look' of the place but it's a new year, we're post-Godzilla vs Kong, things are calming down a bit, sprucing up the place for 2022 and the 2020s in general seems achievable.

+1. Moving the Announcements probably to here in the Comments and Suggestions or making an entirely new subforum here titled "Forum News/Rules". Granted - it wont EVER be read, because if people can't read an all red banner ticker text on the top of the screen they wont navigate to a sub-forum at the bottom of a page. I know that from experience. YES - i'm still salty. As for the Leaks thing - those still are in effect as of my retirement to my knowledge. They should remain sticked to some degree. Though duplicating certain posts, moving others and making a new sub-forum for "Forum Announcements / News" I can put my seal on. I should have thought of that 4 years ago :B

Thanks for the suggestions, guys! I'll share them with the staff as I'm limited on what I can do as a moderator.

So what's gonna happen to the TriStarVerse category, now that it's April 2nd. I doubt it's gonna be staying up on the forums but will it be archived?

I... don't know. Probably just a dream I thought was real. It happens sometimes.

No but seriously did anyone save those posts? Reading all that and everyone's responses and participating a little myself was by far the highlight of April fools for me this year.

I was going to way back when but I figured they'd save it themselves for the April Fools blog. Hope someone else wasn't as dumb as I was.

We're in the same boat. I was just going to quickly screenshot the threads using Firefox's 'screenshot this page' feature, but when it was locked for a few days I thought I might have a while and never got around to it.

Section/ability to post thread for Godzilla DVDs/BRs for sale?

Post by GodzFire »

I'm wondering what section, if appropriate, I could make a post for selling my Godzilla DVDs/BRs lot? I'm on disability and need to make ends meet, and would prefer these discs to go to fellow g-fans.

So the question is A) if I'm allowed to make a "I have for sale" post and B) if so, what section is proper?

Thank you staff/others.

Forums haven't allowed for things like that for quite some time. Higher ups don't want to be held accountable for any issues or discrepancies in the transactions.

As the forum manager, I PROBABLY shouldn't say there are loop holes around this? But there are. Just handle the transactions off-forum.

I appreciate the response, the question is how can I let people know what I have to sell if technically I can't make a post that lists what I have? Or would I be able to make a post and 'hypothetically' and list what I have and say if anyone was interested to PM me? And if it was the case, what section would that post go in, General or Media Center?

Ebay already well known about and use. Marketplace is limited to a certain radius diameter based on location (max 500 miles). Amazon you have to be a 'Store' to sell.

You know, there are plenty of Godzilla collecting Facebook groups you could join that encourage buying and selling...

I dunno what's going on, but I don't think I can edit posts anymore?


edit: nvm, just seems like I can't edit older posts anymore. Carry on.

Could this be because you still have made fewer posts, maybe?

Uh yeah it's possible... how many posts do I need until I can see member profiles?
