Important question regarding the R10 forums
Do you have any plans for a r10 RP forum?
The opertunity to rid us of the RP forums once and for all, when we move to the new board, should not be overlooked.
You'll never have a better chance to strip out the dead wood, think of all the bandwidth you'll save alone!!111234

Karmulian said hes working on a way to transfer the nicks over iirc.
Non players will get to post, but we wont have certain privelages. So say goodbye to your avatrs, your custom title - and if the PA team decide to be nazis, your signature, your location - we might have to wait longer between each post, etc etc etc.

From what i read, you can stilll have a forum account without having a game accountoo.
People who have a game account will have acess to more forum features, than those without a game account.
Probably something like.....better avatars, custom tiltes and the ability to use the :******: smilie.

that wouldn't work
we'd lose any community aspect we have left and just be assimilated into theirs

The forums will be wiped, all current details, threads etc will be gone
"Karmulian said hes working on a way to transfer the nicks over iirc."IF we do this, literally only the nicks will be transferable, nothing else (Eg post counts)
everyone will be allowed a forum account
however those who play the game will have different priveleges
(no not pety things like avatars)
more likely they will have access to new forums
as for RP
it will be staying.. at least as far as i am concerned
you may argue that it is not game related, well neither is GD - but you don't see us getting rid of it
RP jas its own community much as GD does, except with the exception that RP don't trash all the other forums, or spam their own forum pointlessly
anyways before i start an arguement with myself.. RP will be staying.

You overestimated Karm's sense of humor...you can expect him to fix something or pull off some things really nicely. However, expecting him to be a> funny and b> have people skills is a bit much

Re: Official Comment
PS We're firing all the mods and hiring new ones. First in line gets the choice between GD, RP and AD*.
*Now there's a tough one heh.

I think my shoulders are broad enough to take it , hence ill moderate a forum containing all the troublemakers , spammers , l33t h4xx0r5 and script kiddies.
We can call it GS .... no prizes for working out what that means.

not to undermine or question your ace plan, but why would having access to a new forum be of any benefit??? what exactly can they discuss on that, that cant be discussed here?? is this going to be another debating forum comedy debacle?

Unless you have a community the size of SA, too many forums means you get crap content as you disperse the posters.
There is nothing worse than seeing a forum, with loads of different boards, each with about 10 posts.

Before everyone goes off and complains i had better point out i was only guessing at what these special forums for payed users would be but it would make sense to have only PA-players viewing AD/PD/AR etc seeing as its not relevant to a non-playing GD or RP poster.
