General The must "react" to view content in posts is a flawed system

[teek15 2]

99% of posts I have come across so far force me to "react" to the post before actually being able to view alot of the post's content. How does this make any sense? How can I react on something I havn't been able to view yet ?

I'm not sure who thought this was a good idea but this makes any reaction completely pointless because most people aren't reacting to how they actually feel about the post, they're reacting just to see the post.

 

Just my two cents.. have not seen this type of system on too many forums, with exception of having to be registered to view post contents (makes sense).

You can reply to the thread. 

Unless it's locked or VIP thread etc

I personally think its for safety measures, we dont want spies going around the forum testing the hacks and be easily provided countermeasures. To explain further, since its hidden content, it wont show easily in other search engines such as google wherein they just type the game with “hack”. Just my theory tho

It’s not the best but it’s there for multiple reasons, though it can be improved.

I feel its fine, it shows the hack details unless someone hid those in the hidden content (thats dumb lmao). Reacting to the topic is a good way for only iosgods members to be able to download it. well react used to be a heart before, to unlock hacks so take it like an upvote, no one really cares what you react with (expect on a status update). Also, the VIP section hacks can only be accessed by replying. Compared to the many other forums i have seen where the whole VIP section is hidden for normal members and they can't even see what hacks are posted in the VIP Section (so f***ing dumb, this is quite good, the design is neat and dark theme is sexy. Thanks to @DiDA

Yeah, well, creating an account and posting one time does not requires skills, anyone can do it, companies and such, so this is not a valid point.

but having to write something on a forum board just to see its content voids the whole purpose of a forum board.

i want to know if such and such is working, if yes how it is working, if not, we’re you able Tom fix it, if yes, how.

Or, two years after the initial post, does it still works?

 

answering to a post to see its contents prevents people from actually posting relevant information, and other people to look and get the relevant information.

like OP said: flawed

 

have people register, have them « like » the post, but don’t force them to post.

You are blowing this way out of proportion. Will it kill you just to spend 1 second of your VALUABLE time to just react?

let us for once fight for something that actually matters(chatbox). I HAVE A DREAM, that we all would just be grateful that there is a forum such as this that exists. I HAVE A DREAM, that @DiDA will update the jb hack of fantasy heroes for ios 12. I HAVE A DREAM. :V

I agree with this, I mean I don’t care that I have to react or comment to see the content, but if we weren’t forced to do so then we may actually see more helpful information from people who have downloaded and tried whatever it is, it also keeps really old non working hacks from showing back up in the most recent, or maybe those should just be deleted all together. I dont know just my  input. I’m fine with it  either way.

Exactly, that's my main emphasis on the thread - we lose (potentially) valuable information, or questions that one may have on a post. I went through some posts and sure enough there are tonnes of replies along the lines of: "<smashing keyboard such as ahdhfadshfhdsaf>" , "<some random letter>", "Hi", "Nice", and other nonsense replies.

I am not going to lose my mind over this, I can live with this but I thought I would put my two cents, and to see what others think of this.
