Post » Tue Oct 20, 2009 8:07 pm

Lately, we're seeing a lot of topics over and over. I wanted to make an overview of the most interesting topics to view.

NOTE: This Compendium is NOT an official topic, however, it's often referred to, since it contains a lot of information (Nearly everything we know as community) Also remember that everything mentioned in this topic is subject to change.

- http://brink.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page

NOTE: I don't know if this is official or not, but it seems to be a solid source of information.

Is it against ToS to bump a topic like this that is needed by the community?

Prolly is technically... but hopefully mods wouldn't issue warnings for it.

anyways, this is a bump of sorts... also, good job OP!

I searched the forum rules and ToS to see if a topic like this isn't allowed, but I didn't find anything. This means:
a. It's not prohibited
b. I overlooked it

My intention is to make it easier for everyone, but if it's not allowed, I won't complain if it gets locked.

The topic is OK but I will refer everyone to this post from the Official FAQ -

A quick note!

If you are redirecting new members to this thread (or elsewhere) please keep your response courteous. Brusquely brushing people off with a redirect and a comment on how there thread will be locked is rude and unnecessary.

Also, just because a question is answered here doesn't mean that we don't allow discussion of the topic. A thread asking what the team size maximum is will probably be locked with a link to this FAQ but it's perfectly fine to have a thread discussing team size and what people think of it. Some of these topics don't leave much space for discussion, others have plenty of room.


Secondly, if this topic keeps getting bumped with pointless posts it will get locked and allowed to disappear into the void. From the forum rules -

Bumping, or posting to bring your thread to the front is also considered spam here. If you have asked a question and it has not been answered, please be patient. If it falls to the third page or so, you may post to bring it forward once after several hours but doing so more than once will get your topic closed and a warning for spam.

The reason I said that was because this isn't really a discussion topic, so it will really just get bumped over and over, resulting in closure, but the fluffy bear has already explained this.

Good job mate :)

Well to keep posts un-pointless, we as a community could help to keep this thread up-to-date?

That's a good idea. I have a different opinion about the importance of certain topics, so it would be fine for people to "complain" or to suggest putting new/more recent topics in the list.

This


It's a directory ffs, and yah, it's somewhat subjective of what belongs, but that's what the discussion is for....

I just think this would be a useful resource to have available... if the OP wants to maintain it, and we help with input, this thread could be almost as valuable as the compendium (which should also be sticked TBH)

They don't want to stick the compendium because it's not an official topic and everything can still change. Atleast that's what I heard.

It will not be stickied, sorry. All it is is a list of current topics in the forum and that can be found by any member wanting to take the time to look through the forum, but then if they are not going to look through they are not likely to find this thread either.

I posted earlier in this topic, if all you are going to do is make pointless posts to keep this thread at the top then you know what will happen. Having said that it is a reasonable idea and could be helpful to many members, it is just a few of you need to play the game and not get this locked.

EDIT: HAHA confirmed no sticky :P
