  1. Lately there have been several posts from a handful of users hellbent on spreading false propaganda about how WebFlake Staff manages and moderates this community. Most of the posts all follow the same rhetoric.. "WebFlake is ruled with an iron fist", "Nobody likes X Staff member", or the popular shtick of today's society: "freedom from oppression". When did WebFlake become Cold War Soviet Russia, Somalia, or North Korea? I'm going to address the most common complaints, and clear the air. Warnings / Suspensions / Bans When a user is warned, suspended or banned.. they have access to the reason why. Either by notification, email, or the No Permission page presented to you when logging into the site. Warnings do not go away, points are not removed, and only serve as a reminder to not commit the same violation (or any others) again. Suspensions are often handed out to users who frequently violate our guidelines, or simply ignore our warnings. Occasionally, if the action is severe enough, we will suspend a user without warning (i.e. if the user spams vulgarities repeatedly, uses racial slurs, etc). Bans are doled out to habitual offenders, spammers, leechers, and duplicate accounts. If you have questions on what actions may lead to these forms of moderation, or how we utilize them, feel free to PM me directly for clarification. One member PM'ed me earlier this evening to ask what the difference is between Head Moderators and Moderators.. I was happy to oblige. Alleged "Oppression" This is really just a cry for attention people. No one is being oppressed, you're simply confusing your dislike for our guidelines with real-world problems that millions suffer from every day. Not being able to sell ripped skins or request content via PM does not make you "oppressed". We put these guidelines in place for the best interest of everyone in the community, not just a few that we allegedly hate so much that we are trying to ruin their lives... (notice the dramatics?). We're always open to suggestions on altering our guidelines, but don't expect making a spectacle of your topic will bring the change you seek. All of these theatrics as of late are downright annoying and immature. Anonymous isn't going to bring us to our knees, and you won't rally thousands of members for your ridiculous "cause". We are a file sharing community, powered by our donators, and managed by volunteer Staff. Complaints against Staff I was not-so-politely informed tonight that I am apparently "hated" and many people have grudges against me. It's true. I have a long line of haters and wannabes, and an even longer line of critics. It's something I've learned to tolerate a long time ago as a game developer. If you have a legitimate complaint about how I moderate on this site, feel free to send a Private Message to Phun, who will be glad to review the complaint. The reality is though, that 95% of the users who already sent complaints are vulgar, belligerent, and hateful users who just wanted to complain. The other 5% are bandwagon users who see one user complain and promptly join in on the fun. Whatever the case, instead of whining publicly, contact Phun.. or, send me a direct message and we can talk about it. As for other Staff, you're welcome to send complaints to Phun or myself about Moderators. Can't say I've gotten one worth reading however. Membership on WebFlake When using this site, you accept the fact that your membership here can end at any given time with or without prior notice, either by your own choice or that of a WebFlake Staff member. There are no guarantees of "privacy" on a private domain, nor are we obligated to allow you to use this site any more than you are obligated to be here. If you do not like our guidelines or our moderation, you are free to seek out a new community. We will wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors. In short, we're not a community for troll fodder or shenanigans. People come here to share and download files, offer and hire services, and get a running start on becoming a webmaster without the ridiculous fees most software developers charge for the content. I can't possibly fathom why some users take it upon themselves to make this community into a Broadway drama, instead of simply familiarizing themselves with our guidelines and having a good time here. There is much to learn, many files to be had, and ample friends to make throughout WebFlake. If you have a penchant for drama, rest assured, it won't be tolerated here.

  2. Step 1) (Same thing as the original tutorial) Step 2) Find this: .wrapper{ margin: 0 auto; min-width: 980px; max-width: 1600px; width: 90%;}Change it to this: .wrapper{ margin: 0 auto; min-width: 980px; max-width: 1600px; width: 980px;}Step 3) (Same thing as the original tutorial) Step 4) Copy/paste this code and save it as "boardwidth.js" and upload it to FTP -> public_html -> public -> (Your Skin Name): On the deflection skin, the animation acts weird, so if you don't want the animation, use this code instead:

  5. This has nothing to do with using a nulled version of IPB. It's a common issue that appears often. Go to your ACP > System Settings > General Configuration and select no next to next Minify Javascript and Css. Do a refresh and it should be fine. If by chance it doesn't work for you, clear your browser cache, delete your board cookie and try it again.

  6. I've been a Manager, Staff Member, even Administrator of large boards that offer services similar to this (but not exactly the same at all, just the resourcing members aspect of it). I've been through hate, member disputes, banning maybe hundreds of members, and I respect the way the staff handles it here. Not only do they do it efficiently, but they don't let it get as much publicity to bring unnecessary drama to the forum. Kudos to you, WebFlake Moderation, and to those who don't believe so, then they have not been in your shoes, or can most likely not deal with it any better.

  7. As Justin stated above, If the the rules dont suit you then use Alt f4, and do not return. Staf here are to police the stated rules, should members not like the rules then why not just fade into the past? I for 1, appreciate the time spent by staff and will stick to the rules laid down. To ALL staff members, thank you very much.
