In the past when Tony suggested this it received a negative feedback and many didn't like the idea.

That was the past, I would like to release my idea for a forum that would solve and increase the quality of all the forums....

The new forum will only have the 'real' regulars in it, these regulars can post topics, replies and opinions as they please, these 'real' regulars are users who Tony feels don't post spam or ruin the quality of topics. The forum will be readable by other regulars and newbies, but they can not contribute.

What will make this forum special is the fact that every so often a selection of users from the other forums will have a chance to post in the new forum and if they don't muck around they can have the privilage of staying there. I think with this we would see an increase of the quality of the current FOG's as users will want to get into the new forum and talk gaming with the likes of pb, Edgy, Ant, RBS etc...

For it to work though the users who are allowed will still have to contribute to the current FOG, and reply to newbies topics and posts, this will cause it still to be like it is today but with the bonus of the new forum for users to relax and talk serious gaming in.

Come on, it would work, as long as the 'real' regulars still post in the current forums.

Thanks

A particulary good point, if i may say so young petersson. Antidisastablishmentarianism. yes, a bringing down of the co-alition. but more to the point, a forum should be about discussion, and not about ranking, one example of why this is faling is the mergers of all the topics together, which produces a messy gunk of mixed posts, which is contuer productive. I believe there should be no mergers, any of which have taken place should be removed. I am loosing confidence in what was once a fine institution.

Ha!


In my experience Paracetamol is to strong for Ants. Their legs fall off and they die from sunstroke laying on their backs.

Yep, and you should also ensure your posts have good grammar and spelling. God forbid you should, as a completely random example, spell 'witticism' as 'wittisim'.

The easiest way to fail is to try to please everyone. If you don't like the fog in the way that it will become, then you may leave, and take your wittisms with you.

I've never seen you do much more than insult people Michael, if you really think you're as good as people like Pb and Meka, then perhaps you should start acting like it, and post with a bit more intelligence.
