New infraction

I have been looking at a lot of maps recently, and the thing that really bothers me is that there are a lot of maps that have pictures perfectly embedded, yet people haven't deleted their posts for pictures. This, in my opinion, is spam. It makes the map look nooby, and especially if they post that tutorial, it clutters up the front page horribly.

My suggestion is that we have an infraction for anyone who doesn't remove their post that there are no pictures, or if it isn't up to forgehub standards, once they finish it.(Or make it up to standards) Of course, the mapmakers could PM them, but they could just subscribe to the thread if they posted that in it. I really think this is a problem, and I see it on about half of the maps I view that are at least a day old.

I'm good for forging with someone else, so if you want a forging partner then hit me up.

The mods are usually drawn to these threads by people reporting them. So when (and if) the map post is raised to FH post standards, the mods should just delete the comments saying "this post isn't up to FH standards etc.". That way, people won't have to keep checking on maps that aren't up to standards to make sure they don't get infracted.


A good sig is on the way! *Opens MS paint*

Thatd be harsh. As if you do post, and they update, odds are, you won't remember. So you'd suddenly be getting all of these infractions, and be like, of fuck...

It's fine as it is, and most of the time, a mod who sees it has been updated, will delete those posts usually...

Normally, I forget about most threads I post tutorials in, just because of the number of threads constantly being posted. It's not that I care about my post count, because I don't. I just...forget. I'd be glad to delete my posts if I do stumble upon them. A warning system seems more suitable for this situation, though. Two warnings, and then an infraction. That's just my two cents.

we're not elitist pigs.
we already have rules regarding map-submission.
we're not making a new infraction.

conversation over.
