Well, we got it closed, let's figure out how to fix it.
Topics to dicuss:
1) An increasing amount of pornography in screenshots
2) Photoshopped Screenshots
3) Screenshots with unreleased materials
4) People littering the thread.
5) Anything else?
-NC
Already fixed the problem, no more desktop thread next year.
Well I do think that there is a very increasing amount of porn going on in that thread, and it needs to stop and have the same rule as it once did. "If you won't show it to your mommy, don't post it." And really, I think that goes for anything, not just the screenshot thread. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all. Not to mention members acting like they have mod powers. I'm talking about the users who go around saying "thanks for tagging" or "please tag next time" or even "you forgot the [tag]!!! god ****s!"
We all need to be more friendly around here, not to mention courtious. This isn't a ****hole and this forum belongs to aqua and customizing. Which brings me to "unreleased materials". Seph did originally say that we shouldn't post them (along with Stevie) but I do think that it should be okay. If you can't release it, then just say you can't . What's the point of a screenshot thread if you aren't allowed to show things off? If everyone had everything, you'd see the same thing everyday (which we do anyways). So why not allow people to post unreleased materials? Allow it, it's ludacris not to. People work behind the scenes and don't want to release things (I know at least I have done that before). Sometimes, you don't want to release it, but you do want to show it off.
Chatting in the thread and littering is out of hand, but I believe that posts regarding screenshots specifically and generally should be left and discussed. If you have 4 posts in a row, and they are only two people talking, that's wrong. Yes, I and one **** did do that, and he shouldn't have posted the 2nd time, as probably I shouldn't have. I haven't seen or noticed any Photoshopped screenshots, but if there are some, who cares? If they think they are fooling us or whatnot, let them. See if I care. You shouldn't either. If they Photoshop it, good for them, they can have a gold star just like in kindergarten for doing something cool.
Did I cover everything? If anything else pops up, I probably will add my two cents.
Later.

In response to that, you can do whatever you want, it is your forum, but without the screenshot thread, Aqua-Soft will most likely die. Without showing people your screenshot and viewing other screenshots, aqua customizing will be all one-minded and Aqua-Soft will fail to be a COMMUNITY. But like I said, it IS your forum...do as you please.Already fixed the problem, no more desktop thread next year.
