Remove mandatory CnC rule in Art board
The rule that posts in the art board must offer CnC is silly.
It's narrowing the kinds of reactions that people are allowed to post in response to the art. Sometimes people just wanna say 'Woah, that's sick dude, keep it up'. They don't wanna go into some deep critical analysis of the art. From the perspective of the artist, we don't need a review from everybody, we just wanna see how people respond to our art.
Unfortunately, in the name of 'quality' posts, threads in the board don't get many replies, if any. Not many people wanna post their response to the art because of this restrictive rule.
I know I'm not the only one who neglects posting in the Art board cus of this.

Where if people want strict enforcement of what the CnC rule currently seems to be, they can request it in the thread title, otherwise the much more lenient "Please at least talk about the artwork just enough that your post makes more sense in this thread than in a random thread in Off-Topic" can take precedence.
We already spoke on this, and if it works, by all means go ahead. Wouldn't change the way I moderate the board myself.

I wish this was the case, considering I infract people for forgetting to include programs more than anything.

if you think posts like this one are acceptable then haha well
i'd like to make it clear that i don't infract people for not making deep art reviews or anything like that. i just want people to explain why they like or dislike the art posted in the thread and, when i infract them, i ask them to do that instead of just saying "cool" or "bad" (uh, check moop's infraction?), especially when they don't seem to understand the rules. you can take a look at the board right now and you'll most certainly find a bunch of posts that are like "i (don't) like this, x is good/bad". we simply ask people to explain why they like or dislike something and i don't know why that's apparently so hard. even if someone posts amazing, perfect art, you can still explain why you like it.
almost all boards in this forum have a post quality standard. for example, what if you make a thread in the music board and everyone just decides to post "lol i like tihs sonbg
"? you won't have any discussion and the thread will be a clusterfuck of useless posts; nothing decent will come from it. discussion and cnc is a little bit more important in the art board because people are posting things they made, so they want to hear opinions that might help them improve.some people (honestly, not a lot) don't wanna hear cnc, though, and get pretty aggressive when their art is criticized. that's where the [cnc] tag comes in, making it optional, although i believe that could make rules a little bit more subjective.
btw, about the whole cnc & me deal: i've explained it already, up there, but i was literally just stating what's in the rules. if you reword it to "you must explain why you like the artworks etc etc", the infraction will still be valid for the same reason, so nothing changes, really. feel free to reword it though i guess
That was really bad sorry.
Someone tell me why this guy is highly respected by some people ???

Some changes were made to bring the rules more in line with how Arctic and TyZi actually moderate the board.
Also the [CnC] prefix has been referenced in the rules. If you would like to have it added to an existing thread of yours, please report your OP and request it.

Squad Squad Squad lead?
The standardization of Toribash Squad roles may have gone too far!

If the tag won't change how TyZi or Arctic enforces what we've been talking about though, then what's the point of it? The over-moderation problem remains.
For this to work they will need to agree to relax their standards in threads that don't have the [CnC] prefix. Else the change is superficial and this is all for show.
