[Suggestion] New page in the [url=//hackforums.net/misc.php?action=help]Help Docs[/url] named "Posting Restrictions"

Hey,

Maxim back with what must be the 50th suggestion or something, someone dares to count?

I am suggesting to add "Posting Restrictions" to the Help Docs. It should go under the headline Posting which is on the bottom of the Help Docs.
It would contain all sections and forums which have a posting restriction such as prestige, rep or upgrade. I have written and formatted the page
which could be added if the suggestion is approved, surely it can be rewritten or such if needed.

So next time someone asks you, you can just link them to the Help Docs, because then the answer to their questions should be contained in there. ✌
Love this suggestion. Would stop a lot of the "why can't I post here" threads.
This is your 31st suggestion Maxim. It would be helpful to see this implemented. Even though a lot of new members don't read the Help Docs right away it would be nice to reference.

I like your suggestion, Omni usually has more important things to work on though.

EDIT: Although you did already write it up so I guess it wouldn't take long to implement if he wanted.

Or at least make it easier to answer those questions. Thanks.

Not about quantity though bud :p Though for what it's worth, I always enjoy reading your suggestions as they are not your typical 1 line "I want this implemented" suggestion.

I think it would actually be helpful if this was added to the Help Docs. Wouldn't take a lot of time and it would give us a page to link to members who make the "why can't I post here" threads.

I say add a note to each section so it's there even without viewing the Help Documents. Right above the stickies should be the rules of what to and what not to post.

But since it isn't, I'm denying this.

If I change my userame to xexcavatedxd all my suggestions will accepted? Time to aboose
Seems like a very useful suggestion!

Riding on this though, what the heck does prestige do, and how/where can I get it? I can't seem to find anything on the help section/wiki.

Steve and Xerotic have made a very in-depth thread on the prestige system.
You can find it here.

Thanks for the link! 👍

Made me thinking. Since all posting requirements are prestige based, It would be twice as better if I suggested
a new page called "Prestige System" instead. Just like the Popularity System page.

Then It would have information about the prestige system and where you can post and when. Just like this:

Idk. Closing this and Omni can review it whenever he has time. I have the formatted texts saved.
