New Message Board!

[ubern00ber]

Yeah... it's really just connecting both things to the same database. But it's not exactly quite that easy... Depends on how the message board handles accounts/database, and whether it can be modified to suit different database needs. I've never made a message board so I can't really comment too much on this...

Why no FFA? That was one of the best things xentales had going for it. The most hilarious threads were brought up in there. Is casual supposed to be a watered down FFA or something?

i agree that there should be a Free for all, so that players might find this board quite usefull when it comes to finding other stuff and sharing experiences.

While it did have some funny things, FFA also had more than its share of piles o' bullcrap. We would rather create a gamer community that is a bit more welcome to new players than those that abuse the lack of rules and rant in the..."MENSA Tales"... FFA forum. In reply to stickly: FFA is a casual topic forum with NO RULES, which means all sorts of flaming, personal attacks, and inappropriate content can be posted. Casual would still have the normal rules prohibiting that. You could say it is a watered down FFA, yes.

I just had an idea I wanted to put past y'all before I put it in the list: How about a forum(s) for old/large/respected guilds?

[Stick Stickly]

The guild thing is a good idea. As for FFA a new player, if not stupid, would know that that forum has nothing to do with the game, and it's just a place for players to bs while not on the game. Hence free for all. Description could be something a long the lines of "a place for any/many topics not related to the
game can be shared. No racism/sexism or any other types of insults will be tolerated and this forum will be heavily moderated."

Quite like the idea, on WoW people create own websites where people will apply as for a job, where they actually present their CCV(CyberCurriculumVitae, New word)

instead of people creating own websites, guilds whith many members should be able to have the option to create a forum within the Evidyon boards where people can apply.

creating a free message board for your guild is easy. Moderating which guilds should have forums and which are fly-by-night creations would be a headache.

if you are still needing help with some stuff as far as the forum goes just let me know i have a couple friends that do a pretty sweet job
www.vcl-clan.com is like the last one still running but they do that stuff all the time.

Has there been a lag in board development lately? Anything that we can contribute to help it go online?
