Mods need to lock up the Tales of the Night Shift thread imo, the OP is long gone and a great thread is now a crappy low content chat room.

some guy from the UK is telling us in lv how to run our threads?

kat is still around, believe me

Title change:
Not that I know the accurate meaning of the original (which can be seen in all the replies) but "peeps"??
From the possibly offensive to the positively inane?

Why is it better to prevent anyone from posting to it rather than you simply electing not to read it when you see updates? There's no rule that you have to read every post to every thread (or if there is, I've been a LVL scofflaw for quite some time).

I just leave it unread for days at a time. Now and then I pop it up and scroll through the lame "lock it up" comments now and then and go back to ignoring it.

I just hate to see a five star thread gradually descend into single stardom whilst cluttering up the front page. Ymmv.

You are the person that doesn't know how to spell "cheque" like an American, right?

the term is Cheque... not marker.

where do these idiots come from?

You need to change your spellCHECK settings to American, bro.

do i just suck at search, or was the thread on Caesars poker room closing deleted?

It looks like theyre running a new series there starting mar 20.... i was going to post that it looks like now maybe theyre not closing....

In NVG ...

duh.... im stoopid... musta been linked from LVL at some point

Hello everyone,

Starting today, I will be part of the mod team for LVL. I've been quite active in LVL lately, so I decided to reach out to the new owners last week and offer my services. They were happy to have me, especially with the upcoming WSOP and the expected increase in activity on the forum. So here I am.

Now, LVL is a cool place, but it could be better. I've had a few ideas for a while now, which I have been discussing with Marknfw over the past few days. We came up with a couple of changes. These should improve the forum experience for all users.

1. No More Trip Reports

Trip reports have been part of LVL for a long time. However, this phenomenon has completely gotten out of hand. They cause so much clutter that all the practical (and most valuable) information about Las Vegas is almost impossible to find nowadays. A ban on TRs should solve this problem.

We're going to start locking existing trip reports from 2023 and 2024 shortly. Don't start a new TR. It will be deleted, and you will receive an infraction. Multiple infractions will result in a ban from 2+2.

2. AI Replies

The potential of Artificial Intelligence cannot be overstated. This forum could - and will - benefit a lot from AI. For starters, I'm going to create a bot account that will answer all questions in the existing LVL FAQ sticky. It will also automatically delete every new post in that thread that doesn't contain a question. This is because we are certain that its replies (sourced from ChatGPT) are much more helpful and accurate than the reply of the average human Vegas veteran. Expect this to be rolled out in other threads at some point as well.

I realize these are big changes, so it might take some time to get used to them. But we are convinced that they will make LVL a better place for everyone.

Where would the TRs go then? They're the whole reason I come to this forum.

I think the TR ban is a terrible idea. You are completely misreading the room.

also, I'm thinking this may be a April Fools Joke. which is juvenile. if this isn't a joke, I think you are crazy

A better April Fools joke would have been to lock the poker player vlog thread and watch the regs lose their ****.

Exactly. TR's are the core of LVL. They are the major source of info. How many times has someone seen something in a TR and say "I didn't know that"? Like the revelation of the upstairs Venetian food court. I've been going to the Venetian since it opened and I learned something new.

Such an obvious 4/1 joke. Geez, guys.

If it's an April Fools Joke, I think it shows terrible judgment.

If it is serious, I REALLY think it shows terrible judgment.

Trip reports are the sole reason I come on 2+2.

LOL, ok. A fake notification that will have 0 impact on the forum is an exercise in terrible judgment. Right.

it was like the first thing I read after waking up. I realized after typing my message it was obviously AF
by the way, AFJ are dumb

Why would such a totally harmless joke show "terrible judgement"?

I get that some people don't like them, that's fair. But unless you're living under a rock you know what day is today so the outrage is pretty weird.

My first thought was that Sheep86 didn't even put in the effort to have his name added to the mod list in this forum. Looks like he didn't even have to.

This was also the first thing I saw this morning, and I forgot what day it was. Whoops.

I'm offended...

It would be obvious if I knew what day it was.
