Region-Based Sightings as an alternative to Line-Based Sightings

[GoktimusPrime]

I like mel's idea. People who know her would know what stores she's talking about, and if you're not sure you can PM her.

Just make the sightings thread, 'members only' if you want to deter scalpers

I think that's an excellent idea.

[jaydisc]

None of my original suggestion was meant to suggest changes in how we report which stores the sightings are from or how some of us like to refer to them. As with everything, to each their own.

I'm not suggesting changing any of that, rather just the way we group the sightings.

[Golden Phoenix]

first you all change your avatars and stuff

now you wanna frick around with the laserbeak sighting sections

When does it stop!!!!! Why do you young people have to change things!! Just to make it modern isnt it!

We do it just to get a reaction from you

Just make the sightings thread, 'members only' if you want to deter scalpers

Probably a good idea

[iceburn]

Anyway NO to the public domain because YES there are scalpers. Maybe trial it somewhere else. PM for exact location can be a pain sometime cause you need to wait for person to reply.

well, one has the choice to call the person that has sighted something too...

Only if you already have their number

EXACTLY! Just like how I sent a mass SMS to all the melbournians during the Myer one day sale about the stock of combiners and 25th annim prime... heehee... my poor phone must have gone bonkers that night.

Jacksplatt - As for that maybe Griff can create a section for DMs to leave their contact numbers down?

[k.wong23]

Sounds like a good idea, by all means go ahead and trial. It is a bit cluttered atm isn't it

[GoktimusPrime]

The problem with making it "members only" is that it won't necessarily deter scalpers. There are scalpers who register on the board and either never or very seldomly post but probably lurk a lot on the sightings thread for their scalping practices. And there are plenty of registered users who post infrequently who aren't scalpers, so it would be unfair to deregister less active users.

Can we bring this back to discussing jaydisc's original discussion? Pulse can choose to pretend to be clever however he wants, but that's not what this is about.
