At least now I won't be forced to read through 300 comments just to find one useful nugget of info or a well-thought-out opinion. Huzzah!
where is ricefarmer? he trolls but at least he is consistent in his trolling across sites lol
I think this is dumb. Why is eventhubs caving into all these elitists who've been complaining more than ever lately.
u gotta admit as many dumb comments there have been, if you have discernment and can tell real from fake, there were some hilarious comments.
Excellent. Hopefully this will encourage more sensible comments.
LOL. Awesome. Though I must admit, sometimes I enjoy reading the plethora of crazy stupid comments.
Yeah, this should probably make this place slightly better than before.
AAH-HAH HAH. I will make many top-tier comments.
Seriously though, this is a good thing but I will miss some of the more amusing deliberate trolling. And as for who claims Daigo Umehara - I am more interested in who will claim his more famous cousin Diego Umejuarez ;)
The other main upside is that hopefully less time can be spent deleting the moronic unnecessary comments. I bet it was getting beyond a joke for Catalyst. :(
Good stuff, eventhubs staff! All we need now is the return of "chanz" and the commentary on here will hopefully be top notch. Where did that guy go? Can you remember his "secondary main fightings" and "infinity juggle combinations"? Gotta be one of the finest character accounts I've ever seen.
Nice, nice! Trolling should be minimized to some extent now. Everything about Eventhubs is looking more promising now.
Hey, just wanted to say what's up and I think this is a great idea!
can't someone just make another email and post with it though?
Registered :D but although this is a good way to evade the trolls, they'll still come...
Hella nice addition, long over do, now the DSP spamming will stop, I hope, and no more stealing people's name and trolling with it.
Hopefully they initiate a BAN HAMMER to take care of some ignorant comments.
Hau, EventHubs.com!
Yes, I'm here. I could not register under "T. Hawk," the form of my name most familiar to you all. I subjected the PC to a Raging Slash to see if it would change its mind, but...long story short, three smashed PCs later and here I am. SOIFNWOFN Sorry, my bird tends to peck at the keys every now and then.
I see DeeJay and Cammy are here...where's Fei Long? Or as I call him, "Shorty." (Actually, I call everyone except Sagat "Shorty.")
This is a awesome. Now i might actually read the comments. Now if only some kind of comment rating system were implemented we could filter all the troll comments to the bottom.
THE BLACK SAGAT IS HERE LADS
CALM DOWN CALM DOWN
THERE IS PLENTY OF MY LOVING FOR EVERYONE XXX
Yeah it's not like there's tons of sites out there to make fake emails on to make fake registration on to troll with/whatever.
Youtube needs registration, look at those comments
>__>
You can't legitimately beat trolls bros
you can just win by not being trolled
hopefully still chipping you all to death in SSF4!!!!!!!!
To be honest, eventhubs had a system like this some months ago (forgot exactly) but people complained that the the comments were hidden if you weren't registered. So I guess Eventhubs went one step better this time. Good Going.
Thanks a bunch, Eventhubs!!! Now we know who the evil trolls are :-D (mostly)
Now we won't have the same guy commenting 50 times with different names i would know
the cool thing is we wont be stopping the sillyness altogether, some of the completely crazy posts can stay only the offensive and obviously out of order stuff will be deleted. There are some that cross the line and they can be ip banned from the whole site which is great.
So before you post 500+ links to the same pic or music vid on utube think about it for a bit longer. but yeah talking about how makito has grown no that she's younger is cool with us
Good job eventhubs. Hopefully less Hitler and rape jokes now . . .
I saw this happening sooner or later, and it's probably for the better. Always nice to have some kind of moderation implemented.
I took this name too, as nobody seems to be using underscores.
Props on getting registration on this site!
