-You aren't on enough
Eh, I guess I found out 5 problems before reading the app...
There isn't a minimum post count, lol. Yeah, when Mitch said that I was a lil startled xD But being jailed isnt ALL too important, Robby was jailed. xD And look at him now xD

I understand needing to have the word *McTopia*, but do you have to say 'Secret Word', it's kind of a pain in the ass seeing people struggle to work it out when it should be simple for them to just add it into their app

You must have at least 500 posts on the forums to become a mod. To become an admin you must have 2000. This shows you're among the community. ^^*^Check teh Rules Don't ask about the star just sitting there

Well, that's ridiculous. That Shouldn't be a rule. Making 40 posts that are meaningful, is a lot better than just replying to every post just to get your post count up. Posting on the forums sure does help a lot, but putting a requirement on the minimum just pressures people to post random crap. It's better to just say stay active. I read the forums every couple hours. That doesn't mean I always post. I am still an active member though.

If you had a problem with the rule, you should've just stated so when I posted the rules to this section, like I asked everyone to do. In fact, people did, so I lowered it. 500 posts is easy to get, my average post count is 11.88, but for the sake of similarities, I'll round it downwards to 11.00. 500 / 11 = 40-- 30 days on average in a month A minimum of one month of posting, really easy! It's better than someone like ruby joining and immediately applying though. Say this person doesn't have all time access, or they don't post as much as me, which is likely. 500 / 5 = 100. 100 / 30 = 3.334 Five posts a day, an average of around three months of posting, PLENTY of time for people to get to know you, if you let them. I'd want at least that before someone applied for mod. Would you seriously let someone have mod for only putting in the effort of posting 40 things?

Look, Ruby. You are a great player with a great attitude, but you need to make your app longer. In some cases, this isn't even big enough for an accurate Trusted App. Please make this longer and the mctopia staff will reconsider.
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.
I believe mistakes are the greatest lesson in life.

500 / 11 = 40--
30 days on average in a month

Would you seriously let someone have mod for only putting in the effort of posting 40 things? There isn't always 5 topics a day to make a meaningful post on. When people post stuff like "sounds good" "ok" or anything else on every singe new topic, just to get extra posts( and that does happen with one or two people), it doesn't get stopped.
