Re: Will we ever...

well tbh, GC was pretty pointless. but all the rest is a pain

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Re: Will we ever...

yeah, this forum sucks big times!!!

A very important feature got lost!!!

I would say IC lost about 30%-50% of its fun factor only because you cannot read and post ally forums anymore... and why should somebody play a game which isnt fun to play???

as well how an alliance will organize stuff without a common forum. just think of common exploration thread and so on... as well with the possibility to read the ally forum, you really could "feel" the alliance... right now its more an alliance on paper... no emotions!!! how sad sad

So please, bring back the old forum!!!

Re: Will we ever...

who said anything about the old forum... the old forum was good yes, but lets be honest its not going to be back after what happened... we dont want the old forum, we want a forum that works how we need it to, not some half assed thing to post on...

i can't imagine what a fam would do if they had a rogue who wanted to spam ther fam forums... imagine looking at your forums having 500 pages and nothing you can do about it... and technically the mods cant really ban someone for posting in ther fam forum... but they might consider under these circumstances ?


point is, we want something sufficient that works...

Re: Will we ever...

i agree!!!

get us our old forum back or either something like it!!!

this one sucks big time, cant edit cant delete cant check allies, cant plan properly!

GET IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Will we ever...

The only solution is for alliances to host their own private forums.

Re: Will we ever...

big_smile Indeed, now I can't mess forums up anymore wink

Re: Will we ever...

these forums r just as easy to hack

Re: Will we ever...

I agree with static, we dont really need the old one back, however we need a forum that has the features that are needed... like reading and posting ally forum and deleting and editing threads and posts more easily...

Re: Will we ever...

I quite agree, I think a delete post feature is need as at the moment we are going to end up with millions of posts. Also the use of posting ally forums helps with the strategy part of the game and not to mention the comedy factor.

Re: Will we ever...

agreed delete posts and ally forum are the only missing things.

Re: Will we ever...

Oh, fun: forum software bashing! I might as well post, since I'm one of the developers of PunBB (the forum software we're using). tongue


People who say the forum sucks (the list was too long for me to write out all your names tongue): Blame Stefan for doing a bad job integrating the forum, or for not patching the hole and putting the old forums back up. The forum software itself is good and sound. wink

Static: Mods can deal with spam in family forums. That doesn't mean they will on a regular basis, but in extreme cases it would be silly for them not to.

n00dl3: I actually run a site that does free forum hosting, http://www.punbb-hosting.com, that people are welcome to use (I'll even turn off ads like I did for the IC external forum if you send me the forum name on IRC).

Humidity: No. They're not. If you disagree, prove it.

Re: Will we ever...

Oh, and this certainly beats the IC forum in one area: subscriptions. I never have to worry about remembering which topics I posted in ever again. tongue

Re: Will we ever...

stickies are important, plus administration of the forums, its very difficult to persuade inactive members that have posted threads to delete them -_-

Re: Will we ever...

what about this:
We get a new forum mod or two who go trough the families every day or few days and give the current leader moderation rights to their specific family forum (right to delete posts of other players would already be sufficient). Then atleast the worst thing is solved. Another way would be a thread on GC where you can ask to get your fam checked and leader given moderation rights.

Ally forums may be fun but is not essential if you are active and got outside communication devices.
GC, seriously, thats probably the least important thing to solve in the game right now.


Be happy you got secure forums back and let smartys and the others do their work, its surely a hard task if you're not the admin of the game (and the admin not being really active)...

Yes, you're special. Just like everyone else.
