Discussion: Upcoming Forum Changes

This is the discussion thread for the announcement found here.

Thanks,

I can live with those changes.

[sarcasm]

Now how will I get my daily dose o' gettin' trolled?

No more neg rep from Sister Psyche? Shame.

Shame about the tags, they were handy in keeping track of topics(and they were pretty fun too). But other then that, looks okay to me.

Gonna miss Reputation a little bit, but oh well.

Otherwise, I like the board merges. Is PvP going to be moved to a different sub-category then since it'll be one board instead of a group of boards now?

Those changes all seem pretty sensible to help streamline things ready for August 17th.

I think it's a bad idea to stop non-CoH game discussion in the CaH/V Culture forum. That was tried once before and went over very badly.

Other than that, the changes are fine.

That CoH Culture section rule does seem kinda strange - does that mean that only comic books and comic books movies will be allowed to be discussed there?

EDIT: I see sci-fi and fantasy stuff is still ok.

I'll miss tags, they are oftentimes the best thing about a thread.

I disabled rep after it was made completely pointless, nice to see it finally getting put out of its misery.

The impending forum combinations make more sense than pitching the IO forum into the cage of the market forum.

Not sure how restricting what people can talk about in the culture forum will result in less work for mods than wrangling threads that go sour, but whatever. Maybe it'll cut down on the volume of thread spam Lord of Time generates.

I think we now know Mod12's main job - ruthless enforcer of the New Forum Order

Though most of the changes are fine, I would also like to voice my disappointment in the changes to the CaH/VC forum. That forum is the primary reason I keep coming to these boards even when I'm not doing a lot of playing.

I don't like it personally, but I understand why the devs would want the City of Heroes forums to be focused on... Well, City of Heroes. As it stands, very few people really use this forum, and a lot of people playing the game are clueless about quite a number of things as a result.

I will miss the character of the forum personally, but it's not like I'm not used to moving on at this point, and I'm probably feeling a tinge over-dramatic. Warkupo's do not like change; we are sticks in the mud.

Works for me!

Boo: Comic/Culture changes.

Yay: Rest of it.

Perhaps just change Comic/Culture to 'Off Topic'?

These changes are preposterous!

Rep is the funnest thing in coh!

Seriously the Comic/Culture idea is a bad one. Tighten up on getting the so called offensive stuff off but let us have the rest.
