  1. As you say, @sal_vager, renaming it and moving it to the bottom of the list might help. Another suggestion could be to have a pop-up question when making a new post in that particular part of the forum that says "Have you checked that your post doesn't better belong in a different category?" with a short list of the most common ones that are missed. The user could click on the relevant part of the list to automatically open a new post in that part of the forum.
  2. I noticed that there are quite a lot of people posting in "General KSP Discussion" instead of the relevant subforum. The moderators appear to be quite busy moving these threads, but there are quite a few that remain there for a while before someone notices and moves it. It's probably a mistake most of the time, but sometimes I see people complaining that "now nobody will read it" once it's been moved, which means that there are some people deliberately posting their threads in the wrong subforum just to get more views and/or replies. Just wondering if there's anything that can be done about it, because it does clutter the forums a bit? Is the layout not clear enough? Do people not read the forum guidelines? Rule 2.4(a) says: "Users must make an effort to place a new thread in the right forum section. Posts deemed to be in an incorrect section will be moved to a proper one" Is it that there are no infractions for deliberately putting it in the wrong place? The way I see it, if I deliberately place a post in the subforum with the highest readership, I'll get more views. Eventually someone will probably move it, but I basically get a free advert in the high-traffic forum that tells everyone the thread has moved, and they can click to view it. I'm not suggesting that this function is removed, and it's really not a huge deal, so it's not a big complaint on my part. I'm just wondering if I'm the only one who's noticed it and if there's anything that can be done about it? Feel free to also tell me if you think I'm bringing up a non-issue. Thanks for reading.
  3. Thanks @Kyrt Malthorn. Glad to see others who would like to make a difference.
  4. I think this is my favourite set of pages yet. (Although it may not be) The "mmm, bread" *CHOMP* "Hehe, that tickles" completely cracked me up, but it was the buildup that gave it the perfect timing. Well done!
  5. Love it, just perfect. I hope that pilot guy stays in the shadows, that's too good a running gag to throw away now.
  6. If that's true, I can foresee a mod that splits up one craft into two virtual ones
  7. Fortunately for the entire operation, Kenlie has so far managed to get the numbers right. Would be amusing (and potentially fatal) if he accidentally mixed up numbers like he does letters in words.
  8. Does that mean every captain of a large ship in Star Trek is promoted to Commodore if they have shuttles on board?
  9. Yeah, and you have a 3-star pilot available who doesn't really exist in canon.
  10. First of all, since I don't think anyone else mentioned it, I just wanted to say that I think Kuzzter was very kind to time the release of a comic so that certain readers would be out of school when it was released. Second, I think it's very interesting that the Kerbal version of chess has an 8x7 board, and I wonder if that's significant in some way
  11. @Chemp, it's a very funny reference to the prerelease version of KSP 1.1 that will soon be available for users to test, but only if they have the Steam version (See announcements for more details). EDIT: Actually, it was a Devblog (click to see it)
  12. Absolutely love it, Kuzzter. I'm so glad you saw the comedy value with that fleet guy, and you played it very well! That reminds me... what ever happened to Markers Guy?
  13. If he were ever captured, they'd forget to interrogate him. Who are we talking about again?
  14. I was actually just editing my post to add that my appetite for the next episode is well and truly alley wetted...
  15. Since @Kuzzter just sanctioned us talking about various ways to optimise tiny probes I could never understand why anyone would use four or more thruster blocks on a small craft when all you need is a combination of two thruster blocks at or near the CoM and two linear RCS ports placed directly on top of them using offset (assuming you have reaction wheels).
  16. Welcome back, Brotoro! Sorry to hear about your diseased Laythe and I hope you manage to find the cause soon.
  17. I have to say I actually love the fact that it's becoming almost a running joke that Gregmore always gets forgotten about. That is just begging to be written into the story somehow.
  18. @FyunchClick got the point exactly. The Thermians were so innocent and lovable and it took them some time to understand the concept of dishonesty.
  19. I love it how you used the chess game to hint at the complete innocence of the Kerbal race. Have you seen Galaxy Quest?
