Nothing that would inhibit players in 95% of cases but it would serve as a general guideline for when hosts should try to draw the line in situations where things get so out of hand that everyone else is miserable? Maybe it could be included in the default OP under the spam section, but removed at the host discretion if they are fine with a game like Imperial while kinda giving players a warning ahead of time they things may get crazy? It's bad to make rules that force a behavioural change. You have to selectively manipulate that shit if you want people posting less. E.g create setup mechanics that give more benefits to those that post less, but do so clearly, with good posts, and the like. Make the mechanics hinder those that spam with lots of fluff | ||

The other side of the coin is also the newbies: as for seniors it is hard to come back to the game because of time constraints it is as hard for newbies to get in because of time needed to fall in love with the game. After falling in love with the game they need to better their skills and that's games upon games to improve. It's a lot of time measured in months and it should not be surprising that people can't keep up. Also I should apologize to iGrok for being a dick. I am not sure if I ever apologized, so here it is. Sorry iGrok, we should've handled things differently. | ||

I think it could work out miraculously with today's metagame.

(Case and point: me) And won't really care about the time commitment anyway.

That's an excellent reason to offer more games with restricted post counts on a regular basis, if only as a transition between newbie/student games to the huge, spammy games HF and marv favor. HF, I get what you're saying about it not being necessary to read everything to find scum, but lol, depending on skill level and familiarity with the game, what's obvious to you or some of the other vets on just a skim won't be obvious to some of the rest of us Especially if it's based on meta. | ||

Currently the strongest d1 and probably d2 metric for towniness is activity. This means mafia spam more to show activity and therefore town feels they must respond likewise to avoid a ml. This isn't towns fault it is just the state of the game and this leads to massive games. Now either town realises that activity is no longer the key metric and start evaluating post quality or something else to determine town d1 and therefore spamming is considered antitown , rather than just annoying. If this occurs mafia no longer spams and games become smaller. Or we don't change mafia spam , town out spams because it is the pro town play in the current meta, so mafia spams. Until we end up with 300 page d1's. | ||

As a player, I can hang with the spam. I can deal, assuming RL doesn't get too crazy for me. I just think having more options will benefit the community as a whole in terms of different people wanting to play/sticking around. Also some people have busier lives as well, I think in Student V someone made the point that not all people have computer based jobs where they can post from work. | ||
