What do you think of this board reset?

Trident · January 06, 2003, 07:23:47 PM

I hate it

Retto · January 06, 2003, 07:25:21 PM

= 0( Sorry trident....I'll explain the situation with the boards in a few minutes when I get done setting everything up...

*optimistic* at least the boards are up again!

Why was the board reset in the first place???

Retto · January 06, 2003, 07:55:09 PM

Read more about the reset at The Administrative Announcement on the topic.

It doesn't really bug me at all. In fact I like it. Even though I was getting on 200 posts on the old forum I don't mind starting over my post count. It should be totally about post numbers and stuff. :)

Retto · January 06, 2003, 08:47:14 PM

Just so that you can still have the fun of getting other titles, there's about 6 different ones you get in your first 10 posts...

Hm, interesting. Even thought most people would think I'd be racing to get the most posts on this board, I'm not. First of all, I don't have enough time. Second, it's getting old. Third, there's no point. Fourth, I don't feel like shooting for 800 again. Fifth, competition would be tough, though I know that if I was home 24/7, I'd get the title easily and slide into a firm first place. Sixth....er....I'll think about it later. But I don't mind the new boards. I was thinking of restarting an account anyway. "Shael" was getting boring, so I added "of Torethevel", which sounds Lord-of-the-Rings-ish, (unintentional, of course) but even though it sounds corny, it's the only thing I could think of, so please don't bother me about it.

Heh, Retto, you guys have got the upgrated version! Neat. I like this better than the orginal invision board forums. These I find are faster for slower connect like mine. Heh, andn the code bottons are so much easier to use.

I don't see why people should be mad. The only thing everyone lost was data and to tell the truth there wasn't a hole bundle of it.

Shael of Torethevel · January 06, 2003, 09:12:17 PM

Exactly. It's the upgraded version, so of course it's better! I don't understand why people are complaining. What is there that isn't likeable? You just can't /not/ like it because there were topics on the other board you didn't have a chance to read. That has nothing to do with it.

Personally, I think the reset is great. Even though a lot of things were lost. I think it help in the way that now, at least so far, everyone is kind of caught up and we havent missed anything, yet. I think that it will be better and it gives everyone a better chance of getting titles, and starting things up again.

I agree Wickedclaw. I find getting angered over the number of post counts you had is stupid. Personally, I only reply to things worth replying to, not to everything in sight. If I wanted the highest title I'd make one word posts on every thread and on every board. Proves nuthin'.

Besides, the board looks fanstastic and is so much faster (most likely due to the lack of info and replies on it) But there was alot of information of the old site I'd like to see back, but can't. Just due to the fact its such great material for beginners, good convo's and new ideas on how to play the game. Which is genius to say the least.

Oh and Bloodrath, are you the same Bloodrath from AOS? Because I'm Fyrewind Barkstripe if you must know. :lol:

calria · January 06, 2003, 09:51:50 PM

*shrug* post counts are kind of dumb things to worry about. I post a lot, but that's just because I have no life lol I get bored.
