    I was wondering, since so many people are asking questions daily, why not make an "ask" channel or something. Just a thought :p

    I agree, it would be helpful, but only if you can leave it

    I also agree, however, the only bad thing is that the majority of people asking questions don't know how to switch to the correct channel... :/ (at least in my experience)

    We have too many channels as it is. c.c

    And if people have questions, they can check the forum. Better to encourage people to come here. And yeah, people don't even know how to change channels, lol. If no one is answering questions, the people can suck it up and come to the forum, or /msg a mod or someone else..

    Honestly... I feel there should be a test before someone becomes whitelisted to make sure they have read the forums and rules and commands. haha. that way, there isn't the same question about 25 times a day, and 10 of those are from the same person.

    Some people are being whitelisted from the MC thread we have, and they just never look or even sign up for these forums :p

    Maybe in the app there should be "What is the secret word?" And the secret word is found somewhere in an important thread :3 Like the FAQ

    Everyone will look at the other applications and just copy the secret word. It'd be too hard to switch around all the time.

    I still support my old idea >_>: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=321 That would take even more work, though.. At least there would be a smaller chance people would read crap, lol.
