Slusho Products Youtube Fake I think someone is trying to get attention. That video it looks very lame. The sounds, sound nothing like the real video {it doesn't even sound like an animal or monster} and the video didn't show anything interesting or important. It doesn't give any clues.

There has been a increase in troll posts lately.
Why don't the Admins just delete these posts? What's the point of keeping a thead like this: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=20957 ?
It just adds clutter and might encourage others. I know people say "just don't post in there and it will drop down", but we all know that people can't help themselves and keep posts like this alive.

Our policy is to not delete posts. If people respond to a troll post, then I can't feasibly delete the thread. We are trying to manage a balance between keeping things happy in here for the majority of people, while also trying to keep the trolls away. It's not the easiest of positions to maintain. I personally prefer to err towards the side of caution, so as not to err towards censorship and unwelcoming moderation.
I did, however, delete the other 15 or so threads that the guy created, along with banning his IP.

Thanks SG!
It would be nice if there was some way you could "push it" to the bottom, so it effectively disappears without deleting it.
But thanks for at least locking it. I guess that will take care of it eventually...

Heh, no problem
I don't have a "send to bottom" trick up my sleeve, but with the rate y'all post, it'll be there pretty soon

Just wanted to add, that if people see spam/trolls/crap posted, please report it to a moderator or admin, and don't respond to the thread. If we can get to it before anyone replies, we can delete it if needed.
The way the forums are constructed, the good stuff stays at the top and the crap eventually sinks to the bottom. We try to wield the stick that helps it on its way sparingly.

The best way to send something to the bottom is to NOT reply in the thread. Ignore it and it goes away. Every time someone posts in a thread, it pushes it back up to the top.
So, adding inane comments just keeps the trolls happy because they are getting you to pay attention to them. Trolls thrive on attention. Ignore them and they take their little bag of dog poo & huff off to attack another forum.

Organize? So i see your point in not deleting things and what not, but everything here just seems so unorganized. Maybe it might be a good idea to start a thread for people to jump in and discuss actual concrete facts of the game... kind of a workspace for us all. Instead we just have tons of BS to sort through to get pieces of real info. I'll admit right now that i am as much of a newbie and newbie gets to this kind of thing, but it really seems there could be a much more efficient way of solving this. I just began researching today, and in the processes i looked through multiple pages of comments discussing a website that no one even attempted to clear as an actual in game website(or if they did, they decided to follow the trail of bread crumbs leading into the middle of no where anyway).
so really, im not trying to say how this should be run because i am by no means experienced what so ever, but more just suggesting we try to start working together.

Hey there, I completely agree with you and that's why I've been trying to get the wiki started up again. Unfortunately, it appears that I'm the only one contributing right now, but hopefully it will help you out a little bit and once you know more, you can help out too. If you have specific questions (and this goes for everyone) feel free to message me directly and I'll try to answer it on the wiki so that there is some place for new people to get clued in without having to wade through 1,000 pages of posts.
You can access the wiki here
Or also via the sticky at the top of this forum.
Thanks!!

Consolidation of Slusho.jp clues [TROUT] the link is right above this post! I have tried to use Search, only to find nothing.
Then while reading threads I find that which I search-ed for, so I apologize in advance ... I don't know why that happens to me.
Is there a thread that consolidates what clues folks have gotten out of the www.slusho.jp site?
I ask because I'm tired of seeing references to "no clues" being successfully deciphered.
EDIT: Funny, I didn't think to look for "Wiki" which is in the post above mine. Good evolution, the irony.

Will there be anything new on Transformers DVD? I've been a lurker for quite some time, and I enjoy just reading everyone's posts. Just wondered if anyone thinks there will be a new trailer/teaser on tomorrow's Transformers release
Keep up the good work guys, keep searching them clues!

has anyone found anything concerning the paralled between the big sign in the first photo We'll Miss You and the recurrent Slusho! phrase We'll Find You . I checked the anagram analyzer but it creates way too many to consider. could it be a clue to find a new website?

Okay, I know this is probably the wrong place to put this but I have a question:
Has anybody gotten any messages from any of those myspace profiles recently? Hud replied to a message I had sent regarding the comic book thing but has not responded to any other messages ...
