    Server Forums on BG

    I'm always reading topics about other servers that while interesting, dont really have the 'hit home' factor, and we dont know the backstory, so for any drama where we know everyone involved, we are sorta forced to go to KI, which in itself is hazardous.

    Why not make a server forum section on BG?
    It'd be KI with less retards.

    I don't know how the forum server works or anything <.< so if theres a technical reason we dont have them then thats different, but i was just wondering how many think the same thing.

    Most drama is pretty petty stupid and fail....usually drama of Epic proportions makes it to BG and the backstory is flushed out...
    So I am leaning towards no....don't want to attract KI <.< or Alla here for "drama"

    I like that although this is a Bahamut people/LS forum, its a melting pot of every server. I dont think server forums will generate enough traffic, especially on the quieter servers.

    edit: 1200 posts! Go me!!

    Yes! Let's add Server Forums! and while we're at it, let's add Job Forums!

    Also, let's change the domain name to killingifrit.com. It's got a nice ring to it, doesn't it?

    Considering each forum would only have about 3-5 posters, no.

    Sadly people have been posting crappy drama here lately. Like a guy pretending to be a girl faking his death to get out of his e-relationship. Yawn. We need to make a rule: "real drama or GTFO".

    No server forums is what makes BG, BG in my opinion. If I want server forums, I just hop on KI.

    No. The current model is working fine for BG. There's no reason to change it.

    Re: Server Forums on BG

    This exact same idea was posted pre-BG crash. I'd post the link to it, but after searching for it, either I suck at searching or it's lost forever. It received an equally cold shoulder then, too. Mods may just as well lock the poll as the general consensus is pretty clear at this point, even with only 100 votes cast: drama is drama, even if it's on another server, and if you want drama or info unique to your server, go to KI.

    Re: Server Forums on BG

    The Server shitlist on this forum and the Cross-Server Applications forum should be more than enough to satisfy. Its like a little espresso shot of drama -- not a full course meal of dropped relic, but it'll get you through the morning.

    Or it'd bring the retards here and make it KI.

    What I see happening is BG adds server forums, then idiots post stupid shit nobody cares about that wouldn't even be tolerated on the spam forum, and since there'd be over 30 forums, including one for Ixion and Atomos, nobody would actually moderate them and in the end, they'd all be unchecked cesspools of idiocy.

    Re: Server Forums on BG

    if you make server forums just don't bother making an ifrit forum, no one ever uses them. Our drama only happens when you leave the server and get a new ls.

    Re: Server Forums on BG

    But if we got server specific forums, we wouldn't have other people's drama as readily available to us, when big drama does happen. ; ; I like mah drama easily available in one place.

    The long and the short of it is that if someone's drama isn't good enough for the big boy forums, then it isn't good enough to be on BG period.

    Because the last thing we really need is the fucktards posting on Midgardsormr's KI forum posting here.

    Or how about Damo? Anybody from the SAM community or the Carbuncle forums would know what I mean.

    Fuck no.
