I hadn't considered the "New Posts" area. I agree, that would get worse. If the beginners thread is going to be re-opened though, the rules regarding it should probably be more formalised. Like, at the moment the only thing we can do is to recommend people go there. I wouldn't be against making it a rule that you had to post there until someone that doesn't have to post there tells you that you can post elsewhere. At least then mods could legitimately deal with shitspam, either by outright deleting it or merging it into the BT.


and now everybody comes crawling back to the ranking system...

We could do a one-month trial period where the BT is locked and see what happens.

I'll let others pass comment first though.

Oh dear god no don't do that, they did that once before you were a member. Trust me as long as pivot is a program that thread should stay right there.

I agree.


But I like having my own thread.
Speaking of which, I'll advertise it right here.
Because you closed rightful place in the beginner's thread. -

they did this a couple of years back, and it ended up turning the section into a hellhole of people asking for comments on their animations, as they would either be posted in someone else's thread or in a repost thread
the same was done for the flash and easytoon sections, and to be honest, they should truly not have a beginner's section, because i've seen more mature flash and easytoon beginners compared to pivot beginners

Disregard everything you just said. You're forgetting what separates pivot from flash and easytoon - Zed. What other moderator animates? Mhmmm, hopefully Zed can patrol around. I'll be reporting anything worth reporting.

Looks good so far.

I'll have an eye on the section, too. We'll just see how the idea pans out.

Only one bad thread so far, and there's no way to be sure that stuff would've gone in beginners anyway. It's going so well...

Yeah, what made it fail last time was the lack of attention to the section in the first place. Maybe Zed can whip this section into a monstrosity better than those pro-Pivot communities.

thanks cronos, you're the second person to say so
