Hi there,

I'm about to make a few changes to the forums, namely renaming a few, streamlining a couple and getting rid of the dead wood. So, as of today, the forums will be as follows:

Future of Gaming (Chat)
Future of Gaming (Intelligent Discussion)

General Chit Chat (New)
Life and Everything (Intelligent Discussion)

PC Gaming
Internet, Computing and Freeola (the old Web Design forum)

Microsoft Xbox
Sony (Psone, PS2, PSP and PS3)
Nintendo (GameCube and GBA)

Sport
WWE Wrestling (*sigh*)

Movies, Music, TV and Books

Classic Games and Consoles

----------------------------

Much like some cruel Big Brother, this means the end of the Dreamcast forum (sob sob, off to the Classic Consoles forum you go) and the Long, Interesting and Amusing Stories forum (not like anyone ever used it anyway). You've got until Monday to say your goodbyes.

And now you've got a General Chit Chat forum, that means no more crap in the Life or Music forums, there's a general area for nonsensical babblings now so I suggest you use it. Whereas the Life forum can still be used for interesting posts like what monkey_man had for dinner or what Sheepy did last night, I suggest using the Chat forum for 'who likes this' or 'my mate dun this' type gibberish. Happy? This will also be like a meeting point, so your general chatty threads can go in here, as well as your longest threads etc. It's the crap forum for everything basically.

So, if anyone feels like having a huge benny at the changes then feel free, if you're really REALLY upset about something then post in here and I may just listen. And please, no 'we should have a forum for X, Y and Z' moaning because I've made up my mind. The forums above will, in my opinion, work better than the existing lot and there's less of them, which is a good thing. Hopefully I'll get round to making a few other changes soon too.

*awaits the inevitable ranting*

I've started some of the old favourites again in 'General Chat' and moved one of mine that I wasn't finished with.

Sounds good, I think that for the Life Forum you should transfer everything in the current one to the General chit chat one so the main one can start afresh.

That's if you're transferring old stuff to these new ones ??

can we still continue in the consoles longest thread, because they are generally talking about PS, GC, etc. stuff. and amongst owners of that console.

I don't think that's worth it.


No ones posted in prime for months and if there's a general forum no one will post in here either, you may as well just have one FOG forum.
