Question about Screenshot comps,

I’ve noticed an exodus of all of the comps by Moderators. Could we do a comp and then do the voting via PM?

You can do anything you like, as long as the (category) rules are followed.

Sounds good. Thank you

The other issue is they are happening way too frequently for people to want to participate.

Isn’t this just an outright ban on comps? Why not just explicitly say it?

It was great when we just had 1 or 2 competitions a year. Now there are far too many, and it is probably clogging up the forum’s storage

One of the issues is just this. It’s the same with events unfortunately.

Agreed, I remember when competitions used to be rare and unique, and overall, fun. So sad to see that it got too frequent that probably it won’t longer be allowed as it used to be :frowning:

They happen way too much to be fun. They just clutter up the form.

Why aren’t screenshot competitions not allowed without mod permission? That way the number and quality could be regulated.

Would be great if the staff team could put together an official annual or biannual one, and restrict unofficial competitions on the forum

That’s what I was thinking, not screenshots ofc but I would still like to be able to run my annual.

Or the mods or regulars.

It would be terrible if that was shut down too.

I could get behind that - only TL3s and above being allowed to host them.

I have ways around it, it would just be inconvenient for everyone involved.

That’s what I did when I made the competitions a few years ago. Obviously I’ve got the green light since they were very rare back in ‘20 or ‘21. I guess times change :confused:

True. Like PM would be a mess or making multiple topics would be more clutter

Or they would collaborate to have biyearly ones.
