Revive Semi-OG Section

[pet]

I'm not gonna say I've been here since the old ancient days, but I remember a little while ago (when I wasn't a registered member) the semi section was always popped with amazing igns. Now all I see is 1-5 dollar semis here and there, and unused words.

Maybe like add a prefix/suffix maximum

Here's an example
Reading --> Readings

Idk if this made sense, but essentially only adding 1 prefix or suffix to the OG of the word (exceptions can be made)

I have no idea on how to implement this, but maybe you guys could come up with ideas in the comments idfk.

This is also very beneficial for scammers
1. Sell 1 dollar semis
2. Boost rep
3. Exit scam

If this was added it'd make it a bit harder for them, and less hassle for people who wanted a "good" semi. In my opinion, all the random words are really not semis.

Most people think that because they're on namemc upcoming names they're semis :/

I don't know if a thread like this has been made, pls don't get mad I'm new to this section

Yeah but exceptions can be made for some names cause there isn't an OG for them, but I mean just not unused words you've never heard of before.

No prefix&suffix

 

[pet]

those arent semis no one says readings or clappings or stoppings unless you are having an anneurism

Problem is they get posted in the semi section[DOUBLEPOST=1544296448][/DOUBLEPOST]

No prefix&suffix

that's the OG section[DOUBLEPOST=1544296617][/DOUBLEPOST]Jayson Any possible way you could make this possible?

Some people even put non existing words like "Sushis" in the semi section

That's what I'm tryna say, all these non-existent words are driving me insane tbh

There needs to be a rule to it so if you report the thread staff will remove it.

Yeah or like warning points on top or smth, and also like a limit so people don't spam 100 semis and it just ruins others threads cause they're invisible basically

There was a thread created for this not even four days ago: https://www.mc-market.org/threads/422720/
It would have been better to add your suggestion for quality control within the existing thread for it rather than create another.

My stance on the topic is the same as I expressed there. I'd prefer a system which allows the community to passively determine what accounts are OG enough for the semi section, rather than wasting staff time on reports on a name maybe not being OG enough.

Sometimes a name or phrase gets really popular, even though it doesn't fit within the standard "No suffix" rule. So automatically denying a name just because it doesn't fit the standard is not accurate.
What determines whether an account is OG or not is, after all, solely dependent upon the reactions of the people who see it.

That’s the issue and you guys have to put the effort into cleaning up threads. Serouisly u have so a number of staff thebaum64 hasn’t even been on since Thursday. It’s kinda problematic that you guys seem to not have the ability to do so much when you expressed that the hiring of new staff would help that. Scam reports ofc are doing well but what about the number of other staff? U guys are kinda slacking ngl

Like staff said, the position is voluntary. Also, they have a life too, give them a break.

It's similar to how fishes is the plural of fish if you're referring to multiple types of fish. It technically is a word.
