Website & Forums A Way To Lower The Amount Of Shitposts

So with the recent influx of new players, there has been an increase in "I'm stuck in a block admins help please" and "OMG i lost my 1/10 BROWN hORSE aNd 1 EB IM will sue WynnCRaft gimME MY itSm!11!1!2!" Threads. So these are some ways to fix it:

1. When you attempt to post your first thread, there will be a notification with a quick FAQ, similar to the 10-posts thingy. It will say stuff like "If you are stuck in a block or a hole, please go to this thread(@Energyxxer s stuck thread, once it's updated) for help" or "If you are asking for a refund for a lost item, please refer to this thread(a new thing in rules explaining no-refund policy in detail)", or "If you wish to make an appeal, please read this guide and post your thread here".

2. A program can be set up to detect specific words in a thread like "stuck" "refund" or other words that might indicate stuck threads, etc. A message would pop up with one of the FAQ questions saying "Certain words in your post indicate you might be [issue]. If so; please refer to [insert thread] for more information"

While this will probably not completely prevent all useless threads, this will help reduce the thread clutter.

 

I remember I posted something a suggestion just like this in mid 2015 but people were saying that it would get annoying if you are stuck in a quest stage or having problems with trade market stuff.

 

He's talking about the pointless help/rage shitposts, not the funny kind.

 

Same place your brain is; anywhere but here.

No, but what he meant was actual shitposts; not the joke ones, though those are technically shitposts, but the threads that are completely pointless.

 

this is a shitpost


someone delete it.

 

except for Vip plaza ;)

 

I think idea one is not needed, rather they should send them the link to the rules when they first make their account. Jumla sends a welcome message, but I noticed that it doesn't have the rules in it!
