I suppose if it doesn't fit into any of the other categories and generally applies to everyone then I guess all pinball subforum.

Unless the character was a whore and you planned on making her do X-rated stuff on the theme, there should have been no reason for putting it in the basement.

Hahahahahahaha. ANYtime I have to say something is long, I almost ALWAYS say it like this, "...that's pretty long duck dong." Well not in front on my 7th graders, but...

And if the wife is around? Straight to the doghouse (basement).

topics like, "People who like balls, let's talk about it."

ps. in before the lock, or sent to basement (IBTB)

You are just a basement kind of guy like me, friends in low places, you know?

I miss those hottest girls of pinball threads. Now its "Lets talk about feminine hygiene issues while my EM wont start up".

At least one shiny ball. At least that's what I hear it takes. I just shared the soap, I swear.

When I worked in a grocery store a woman asked where the sanitary napkins were and I sent her to aisle eight for paper towels and toilet paper. Little did I know... Hey, my Quick Draw has flickering GI lighting. I heard someone mention a tit or something but I'm confused. Please advise.

Because mods;
Are not stupid
Cannot read everything

Odin, you are a great guy and I like reading your posts, but there are times you post spam

What is spam to you and me, may be gold to someone else

It would be boring if we all liked the same thing

I think its time for little Jonny to turn off the computer and go outside and play...

More importantly Odin, When is bacon fest?

If it did I'd garbage pick it and eat it

Any 5 second rule ?
What if it was in a trash can on set of Breakfast Club?

Is being in the basement bad? I see the posts like any other. The only difference is the color of the background and the speech is free-er.

It's very bad.
It also means, next to no one will ever see your thread/post.

I can help you a bit. When you suggest re-theming a King Kong worth $25K-$50K into a Long Duck Dong pin, that's gonna land you in the basement.

Well I notice some threads end up there not because of the topic, but because of where the conversation ended up. In the past the thread would have been locked, but now it continues downstairs. I get o-din's point though.

Guess I'm in the club then cause I go to the basement as soon as I login. Odin is right many of the threads there are interesting and contrary to popular belief, informative and pinball related.

Not lingering now, your thread is now moved to "Website".

The inconsistency is a problem.. How ever I have not noticed Robins name in the On Line section very often lately.

That's a handsome mule.

What has Pinside been preaching lately?

Guess that's not such a bad thing. Moderator's are in the 'no win scenario' most of the time, although I don't shed a tear for them. It's their choice, and they have to take the bad with the good.

Yeah, apparently I created a lot of hate and discontent because of the way I acquired the machine. Was severely scolded and threatened by one of the moderator's. So it's a topic best left undiscussed. Not going to have it much longer though. Had an offer on it I decided to accept.

Pics?

I remember your discussion with my fellow moderator. Just to be clear, there was no hate on his side at all, he just felt you should have a photo of this game and he respectfully noted that we believe we know where all of the existing KK games are at the moment (except the one destroyed in the fire) so the existence of your game is a mystery to us.

It was a "pics or didn't happen" type of situation, from what I recall. If there were photos proving ownership, I'm sure there would have been no controversy. Folks had/have a hard time believing it without seeing photos. That's pretty much all it was.

Those were pinball-related topics and seemed to somewhat stay on topic.

The off-topic forum is just that--a forum for topics that are unrelated to pinball or a little too on the wild side for public consumption.

However, we were working on ideas for a middle ground, which I'm sure we will be revisiting once Robin catches up after he returns from vacation.

The OT forum was added as a response to requests to allow an area for discussions where the rules were a bit more relaxed. Obviously, there are still plenty of interesting and worthwile threads in the OT forum in the basement, and moving threads there isn't intended to be a punishment of some sort. Threads are simply moved around to the forum that bests fits the discussion at hand.

We don't read every thread and every post. No one person can. Check the site stats...it ranges between 1500 to 3000 posts and 50 to 200 threads per day. It's pretty astonishing when you think about it. There is so much going on, that threads can sometimes wiz by the first page in a matter of hours and get lost among other active threads.

If you think a thread is particularly worthy of moderator attention (good or bad), report it, open a moderator feedback thread, or send one of us a PM. We're not scary people, I assure you. We just try to help keep things running reasonably smoothly, and each one of you can help us do that.

True, we do get hit with a lot of blame and complaints for jumping in too much or not enough, but we have thick skin. Balance is challenging, and you can't make everyone happy, but we try to do our best and always listen to thoughts, ideas, and constructive criticism.

In the end, we're all here because of a passion for pinball
