Feedback Some feedback and possibly a bug

Hey @Shelter2015, that is some totally valid and awesome constructive criticism, so I really appreciate that.

Unfortunately the moderation queue is not something that is going to be going away. It has been in place in some form or another since 2009-2010 and is incredibly effective. Not only does it stop spam bots, it also stops people who mistakenly "drive by advertise" their sites without reading the rules (this happens more often than you'd think). I do not want to penalize or embarrass people who mistakenly advertise their site without checking out our rules, so this also serves as an effective barrier for that. I would honestly hate for a newcomer to stop by, advertise their site in their first post, and end up getting dog piled and reported by members who are already intimate with our rules.

As it stands, RPGfix is largely already self-moderating. If you report dead/defunct sites and legitimate "bad" posts, then you build up trust with the moderation system. Eventually if your account has gained enough trust, it'll be flagged as reputable and then posts/sites that you report will automatically be sent into the moderation queue. So in a way, RPGfix has a lot of invisible moderators... people just don't realize that they're moderators. :) It's largely how I'm able to run this place with such a skeleton crew.

I'll check out the ad issue! It's likely a problem that occurred during a routine upgrade.

Edit: Fixed the ad problem. Apparently it was because some advertiser started messing with my wrapper and adding a "funbox" div that was messing things up. :|
