All Mag forum-goers need to pay close attention:

It is come to my attention that the forums have been slowly slipping into a state of near-disrepair. As such, the staff has taken it upon itself to restructure certain aspects of the Mag forums to better serve it's purpose.

The main culprit of such devastation is one "Amy Rose's Spam Hammer"
The forum description of the "Spam Hammer" states:

"Spam spam spam away! You can place site links, polls, sig tests and other worthless, random ideas of yours here. Warning! Amy will smack you with her hammer if you overdo it."

It has been shown that the spamming of the spam hammer HAS been overdone, and almost all members are responsible--staff included. That said, it is apparent that certain changes have to be made.

On December 20th, 2005 , the RPG Maker Magazine staff present at the "State of the Mag" staff meeting voted unanimously on the following provisions relating to the "Spam Hammer":

Effective Immediately, the forum entitled "Amy Rose's Spam Hammer" will be converted to an archive format, in which all topics are locked. A new forum, entitled "Amy Rose's Palace" will be formed to replace the old "Spam Hammer." This new forum will operate under a modified version of the "Forum Rules"--These rules will be made available in a sticky topic in "Amy Rose's Palace" A topic creator may petition that his/her old topic from the spam hammer be revived by contacting any administrator with the title of said topic. The administrator will review the topic, and if appropriate, move it to the new forum. The new rules will be enforced by the Forum Moderator(s) and Administrator(s).
-------------------------------------------------------
<b>Change to overall forum rules</b>
For the time being, a swear filter has been activated, and post flood prevention has been set to 15 seconds.

Any concerns or comments regarding these changes or any other Mag activities may be posted in the newly formed "Suggestions" board.

Clearly stated in the power listing that Ixz can make any change he wants without ANY of our consent, but it isn't permanent.

The current situation is also not permanent, until a vote when everyone can discuss.

yeah i know, im just saying that i don't debris falling on my head - cus lone is a little mad ... just a little >__>

Why on earth is there going to be a poll or disscussion? It is already changed, wouldn't it make more sense for a disscusion to go before shaking things up...

Seems pretty fine like this though - its been changed, its for the better, we'll get used to it..

It might be changed because there's still a chance to get an entire vote on something. This occurred at a staff meeting, and then others were invited in if online currently.

Once more, the site's basis is RPGM... without it, no forum. There's a link to us from Agetec's site that anyone can click on. That was the focus for the changes. As you can see, the spam forum is still bustling with activity, and there are a few megaton curses censored. Topics requested to be revived in Amy Rose's Palace we're revived.

I wondered myself why this didn't occur when we linked. But now is another publicity sighting, an article in a gaming mag where we are being featured with the Pav.

Am I the only one who doesn't see this as THAT big of a deal? Well, others did, so now we're having a vote.

I like every single person on this forum, and I'm kinda bummed out everyone is upset over changes to improve the site's standing.

.............. so, you AGREE with me then? ok, that is good.

who thought it was a big deal? I think everyone is fine with the change, maybe except Lone but that only because you guys totally left him out of it...

i dont quite understand what you are freaking out about... sorry that i am slow.

You're not slow Goth.XP

It's just that we had huge drama when it first occurred. It's a bit better now, but I still sense some tensions.:X

Williamkirk's attempt to take over the world kind of distracted a bit of negativity too.:p

Well, it's really up to Ixz, OD, and Lone if there will be a vote. I'm not that high up, I'm told it's because estrogen needs to be kept in check.XD

lmao! yeah, Estrogen.. riiiiight, NOTHING about testosterone, its SO not more dangerous.

and yeah that williamkirk thing was pretty funny. almost reminded me of spaceballs.

about the Drama when it first occured: Well, I didn't think it was that huge considering it only lasted like... a day at most. Also, what do possibly expect? Like if you one day totally out of the blue woke up and your parents were like "Hey, we packed your things, we're moving to Mongolia, let's go." then proceeded to drag you on to the place and before you knew you BOOM you were in mongolia, you would prolly suffer a little shock yes?
A random sudden change is obviously going to upset the people it effects, like that huge tsunami a while back, because it disrupts the way of life that the affected people were settled into but eventually everyone gets used to the new ways and things calm down again etc a new way of life is settled into and all is happy dandy.

I don't think anyone actually minds the change, it was just the suddeness that threw us off. I'm guessing I missed most of the drama - and the whole thing with Lone, well... debris will fly because of a lack of respect more than he might not have wanted the change.

Your behavior was nothing to be proud of. I was very disappointed in it.

I just wanted to know. Sometimes he acts 21, sometimes he acts 41. Just thought it would be nice to peg him down as something-either a mature post-adolescent, or a hip adult.
