TheGuyversWill Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 (edited) Simple question. Why or why not? I don't see much activity on this board as of late. Might as well try and clean up shop and try to at least give the appearance of rampant post. Maybe if we keep everyone closer together, in a more confined space of virtual environment, we'll be more likely to interact. Ha! Edited December 29, 2006 by Guest Quote
Twilight-Guyver Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 You have a point. Not too much does go on in the gaming section. Making the two one gives more activity and increases views. Good show, sir. Quote
Matt Bellamy Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 How about talking to the admin before posting a poll like this? In the end, we have the final say... and I'll put it this way... it's a useless poll Just because it's not getting many posts right now, doesn't mean that it won't in the future. Just look at other parts of the forum, and see that they have barely been posted in at all. No, for now, the forums are going to remain as they are. Quote
TheGuyversWill Posted December 29, 2006 Author Posted December 29, 2006 The admin is rarely online. I keep trying to talk to him but all he gives me are "Bleh?" 's... I tell you the nerve of some people! I just figured if we merged the two forums it would at least compress the inactivity for now, and once things pick up, it only take three seconds to add a new forum. Quote
largo Posted January 1, 2007 Posted January 1, 2007 Guyverswill I agree everything in this forum ends up turning in to a general posting anyway. Quote
TheGuyversWill Posted January 1, 2007 Author Posted January 1, 2007 Which is why I think we should merge the two. We can always add the forum later, but too many forums just spells inactivity as a whole. Especially if you only have say, 10 active members that actually post. Man, am I good at exaggerating or what! Matt just wants to run a totalitarian forum though. How sad. Quote
*zeo Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 Shhh, never question the Matt. All hail Matt! (A firing squad approaches Will and Matt stands up from his throne and raises his hand to give the signal) Really though, wouldn't it be a better idea to just come up with some more interesting Topics? People need things to talk about after all before they can post about it. Quote
Sully Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 All hail the Matt???? man I've been away too long! It's all hail the Sully Edit: Pfft, James I've not been active for a year and I still have more posts than you Quote
largo Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 *Talking like an old man.* Oh? I remeber the day when this board was ruled by the great ones: Sully, Matt, Allen. But those where of days past now we are ruled by a new great ones:TheGuyversWill, Twilight Guyver, and finally most importantly the guru of all things sciencey and the most active of the mods Zeo1234. Oh? How we miss them, when if there was ever a problem they would calm us with their greatness. And when we are selves did not have to entertain our selves by telling eachother our own guyver legends but they would bring down from the heavens their tales of legend about everyother month at the very least one of the three would. Oh? How I dream of those good times but alas those days are gone now is the time for a new generation to go where no guyver has been before. And the one to lead this new generation is .....Me? Maybe, I hope naw it's defenintly Zeo1234. Well this is all this dodoring old man has to say. Quote
Twilight-Guyver Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 Well, I don't hold a mods status but I am here as mauch as I can be. Now that I have the internet at home everything is all gravy. But yes, James is the mod man of more seniority but the Will is here more often. Me, I'm just here for the fun of it. Quote
largo Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Oh I guess you right about who's more active and all that who never relized it before. I thought you were a mod due to the fact that your fic is on the main wg fic area. Quote
Twilight-Guyver Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Used to be a mod when I actually did some writing. I've was out of hte loop for ages. So not being a mod doesn't bother me. I'm still around for the good times. Quote
largo Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Wow I didn't know that. That kind of sucks.XP Quote
Twilight-Guyver Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Meh, it's all good. I didn't much as a mod that I don't do now. I never kept order or anything I was always about what was going on behind hte scenes rather than keeping people from causing arguments and what not. Quote
largo Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Largo shakes his head that's messed up man. Quote
Twilight-Guyver Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 It's all good. I was never one for control anyway. I like being the easy rider. No, way to go all meglo. Quote
Thunder Demon1472669266 Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 It needs to remain the same. I agree that it's slow now, but it will eventually pick up again. But, in the meantime, don't worry or think about it too much. You might hurt your head. And at any rate, if there is something that someone finds interesting that crops up that belongs here, you'll know. So, relax, and just enjoy the scenery and show. Flow with the current, and all of that. At any rate, does it truly matter? Everything has their peaks and lows. Like I said, don't worry, be happy, and roll with the punches life tosses out. It may be surprising what being relaxed about things you can't control will do for you. Human patterns and patterns of topics included. It's late and I really need to sleep. Quote
TheGuyversWill Posted February 9, 2007 Author Posted February 9, 2007 If even one forum on this board remains inactive for a prolonged period of time, it will effect the overall activity of the board in general. It doesn't make that much sense, but it's the truth. People want everything to be active on the boards they visit. If this board was merged with the other one, it would add to at least the appearance of overall activity. This in the long run will increase activity and overall board/site traffic. Just the flow of things, ya know? Quote
Thunder Demon1472669266 Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 Even then, there will be slow periods. Would you combine the slow boards then too? If you did that, in the long run, you'd have only one general board. But, for now, for all intents and purposes, it doesn't look like there has been a relatively large change given that there is an average of one topic being replied to one every board in the last week or so. Over a longer period, yes, it would appear slower, but still, that doesn't necessarily advocate for a major change like you're talking about. Now, if say, there was only one post on this board per every two weeks for say, a year, then yes, that would be sufficient need to add it back into another board. But, as it is, there really isn't sufficient evidence or reason to move the board. Quote
TheGuyversWill Posted March 23, 2007 Author Posted March 23, 2007 But just think! If this board was part of the "General" board then the 4 topics made in the last 2 months would have been created in the general board!... This would add to the overall appearance of activity on the said "General" board and would perhaps motivate others to give this site just a tad bit more traffic due to at least the appearance of activity! Oh well... Deaf ears and all. But I hear you! Quote
largo Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 Dispite your issue with the gigantic I have to agree the video game board gets like little or no attention. So I think it would help, I'd also like to mention that if it was moved to the general forum we might be able to get members interest in talking about video games back up and if it gets big enough then we sporate them again.

TheGuyversWill Posted March 25, 2007 Author Posted March 25, 2007 Three cheers for largo. Come on people you know he has a valid point! Preach it brotha Largo! Quote
