Moderators play an important role on websites and forums. They exist to keep the forum running smoothly and the rules they enforce are there for a reason. The rule against duplicate posts for example is there mostly to stop people pushing their own threads to the top of the page. If nobody else is posting in the thread it shouldn't be on the front page. The rule against duplicate threads exists mostly to stop ten threads about the new Metroid appearing. If you split the discussion of one topic up like that you push other topics off the front page.

And most of this stuff? They aren't hard rules. It's upto the moderators to decide how strict they should enforce the rules. As a general rule of thumb they'll leave your posts alone if you're not getting in the way of the discussion. For example a duplicate thread is less of an issue if the other thread is well and truly off the front page. A duplicate post is less of an issue if you're not the OP, you're not flooding the thread with replys and both posts contribute something different to the thread.

But ultimately? Moderators hold the keys to forum discussion. Be nice to them.

You can use the forum search function, it's the button at the top of the page next to the "new topic" button.

Though if you find a thread and it has been inactive for more than six months it's better if you just create a new thread. Unless you want to talk about an specific video game, in that case you can revive the thread.

As a general rule of thumb I would avoid creating threads unless you're certain that you've got a super good topic. Like a thread about a specific game if there are no threads for that game. Or if you've got some interesting discussion that wouldn't fit in another already existing and active thread.

But probably more importantly, make sure your title explains the thread. A lot of users are going to reply to the thread topic not your first post. Especially once the thread starts to get a bunch of pages of responses. People are going to skip to the last page to post their reply. The thread topic is the only thing most people will see of your thread. Use it to explain what your thread is about.

Came here to read about bewbs... and all I'm seeing is moderator talk...

...Gets me even more excited

I'm struggling to remember any significant female characters in the game's I played.

Elaine Marley in Monkey Island, but I don't think I ever admired her that much.

The Great Giana Sisters hadn't quite blossomed...

I liked a few of the cut scene characters in Super Cars 2, but they were pretty peripheral and it's not like I know their names or anything.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

Nothing is true. Everything is permitted.

I honestly have almost like inconsistent thoughts about fictional characters being attractive. Sometimes I can enjoy that, but a lot of the times, even with the same characters, I have no interest in anyone who I have no chance with (mainly because y'know...they're fictional :V). And rarely everything comes together for being sexy and a character I'm actually invested in. Even in live action series or movies.

I will say, 2d art is way better for attractive characters. Looking at Skullgirls for example, it is better at this than any attempt in a 3d game.

@skywake I see, so every post have to be about video games? it can't be about life. for example, lets say that i was bored, could i make a thread called "Im bored come talk to me"? or what if i wanted to say hi to, idk lets say @Meowpheel i couldn't make a thread saying "hi meowpheel"? Im just curious. And you know so much about this thread stuff, how come you are not a moderator. You give alot of information .

@piercinghearts If you go over to the General Discussion sub-forum, you can see we have a chit chat thread for everything you want to say, but that doesn't warrant its own thread. It's over here: https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/general_discussion/the_chi...

It's basically our spam thread.. Just make sure you don't multipost and/or place useless comments like ''OK'', ''Hi!'', ''Yes'' and the likes. And keep it civil of course!

Eva from Metal Gear 3.

By the way, I'm waiting for the "hi Meowpheel" thread.

Why? That's not how forums work. You are a Youtuber but have no concept of posting on a forum and getting replied to? Again, smh.
