NSC: better, worse or the same old same old?

[Lokki 7]

I think you're getting bogged down with details. How can limiting the number of smilies in one post make NSC in anyway a better site? And it won't stop the one smilie posts that annoy you.
I quite like the idea of a maximum number of new threads, say 5, in any given day for any poster. This number could be reduced for individuals who start 5 threads of shite everyday (you can probably guess who I have in mind).

We can limit the number of smilies allowed in one post.

Thats LI f***ed then, he will be unable to do a thud smilie to emphasise how stupid you are in the same post as a laughing smilie after one of his jokes (I use the term losely, anyone who laughs at their own jokes or has to flag up that it is a joke usually isn't telling a funny one).

It sounds like details but the smilies do make trawling through a thread annoying just as much as threads of complete cack - eg lets count in roman numerals!! just my opinion though...

Ok yellow cards good!

On the other hand conflict and or banter should neither in themselves be a bannable offence? Thats why I was suggesting a list of offences and a reason being posted for the ban? Do you think that'd be possible?

Possibly. I'm just trying to consider what would be on that list though? 'Bouncing', 'Flaming'..

Yeah stuff like that
also
Racism
Over the top porn (eg Looneys chicken and sausage)
repeated offences of above

Just trying to prevent the why was he/she banned and/or where has such and such gone threads if you get my drift?

I think its pretty much the same. As others have pointed out if its a little stagnant at the moment its probably due to the fact that:

its been a bad season
its the close season
we STILL dont have a decision on Falmer
some members post too much cr*p

lets face it, written content was better pre smiliey/avatar etc

it also made it much better for work ( 99% of my time ) when you had management who could sneak up behind you whilst you weren't necessarily 'grafting hard'
