I propose "General Gaming Forum". What? We already have one of those? Then why is it that every thread in this forum is about "the best game" or "my favortie game" and such? I do believe that there is a place for all of this crap, and I'm not talking about the FFXI Main Forum.

So, from now on, for all you people out there that refuse to pay attention and read the board description on the top of the page, don't post your sh[i][/i]it here. I'm tired of it. If you have anything that is game-related, post it on the specific game forum that encompasses that post.

Thank you.

That is the link for the Multi-Game Forums.

I get exactly what your saying Twiztid...

For some reason that link took me to some really strange forum place. Very interesting... but just click Forums...>>>Multi-Game Forum

Edit: I think I found a long lost Forum...

Couldn't we all just join forces and rate anyone that posts about "favorite games" or "best game" or "my new FPS that microsoft should develop" down to nothing so the post dissappear?

I agree with Twizzler, however they seem quite popular atm. Get some more active topics up and I will start directing people to the appropriate forum.

And NaRgAr, I fixed your link.

unlocking said threads.

moderation should be community-driven by y'all rating stuff, not by admins locking threads.

Maybe you should start handing out cookies for everyone that goes to the Multi-Game Forum. Maybe then, people will actually using it and posting their sh[b][/b]it there instead of here.

Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!

Locking the threads is probably far more effective.

Why?

We already know these game crazy posters can't read the name of the forum they're in. Seeing a lock icon on all the game related threads will get the message across lickety split.

  • Gee, why are all these threads in OOT locked?
  • Gee, all these locked threads in OOT are about games.
  • If I post a game thread here in OOT it will probably get locked.


  • If we're expected to sit around nuking their posts, the posters assume the ASSylum people are simply being our "mean" old selves.
