I don't know about you but I have trouble keeping up with it all these days.

Do you have any suggestions for us (the rival MIST forum doesn't seem to have got off the ground) - or do you like it as busy as possible?

Nope it's just perfect, if FOG wasn't here then one of your other Forums would be the focus of all the attention!!

Perhaps you could build another forum like FOG for 'Gameaday attempts'.
That would weed out a good few posts from fog, and it would also make it alot easier for you to check them, although you would still have to check the reviews and cheats part seperately.
Things like stories and big debates could be posted there.

If you had put a proper chat like many others and myself suggested the FOG Forum wouldn't ba half as congested as it is now....

And you might say you 'gave 'Chat' a chance' and you 'had a vote'....

....And to that I say...PAH!

A proper SR chat, not some - works when it wants to, mIRC crap!

Make a properchat and then you won't get so much rubbish!

hey im a newbie-hopefully almost regular, and i think there should be seperate forums, everyone can access the newbie ones, but once you become a regular you join the 'regular forums' coz the newbies and the regulars never get on to well, i hope that helps ya tony, if not, oh well i tried:).

It is too busy.

You need to be able to direct people off to other forums, console wars etc have their own forums, but are seldom used.

I think a way to get people to use other forums would be to take FoG off line for a week or so, say that the server is down or some rubbish.


BTW, i posted i suggestion for MIST in the MIST forum this morning, don't know if anyone has seen it yet.....

If you want it to be slower paced then go elsewhere. If you only want to chat at snail`s pace, then go to a console specific forum.

I prefer ut when there are fewer people then you cant talk to people how ya want instead of newbies buzzing around. But it is still top dog anyway!
