the future of the forums

[Imatron]

Honestly, these forums arent working out, nobody here really likes and talks about BIONICLE much. This is the last effort I will take to have Bionicle forums, if this does not work then I will lock down MoD's forums and remove the forums link on the front page news.

This is the plan: there will be a new MoD forum made up on Invision free forum software. It is cut down from the forums we have now, and there will only be one non bionicle forum, and that is videogames.

We need a second site though, I will not be running this site. The second site is basicaly for any of us who do not care about bionicle to go to when we move over to the new site. Aegis has volunteered to set up his site for this by sectioning off the content we could not link to, so that you have to enter a password or have special permission to access areas that require more maturity to handle.

Plan B is I make a fresh new site, and we pick the name and vote for an admin. You guys choose what to allow and dissalow through vote and the admin sees to it.

Vote will end in five days.

i actually dont mind which option is gone for, using new mod would be fine but i see just as much benefit from making new forums

[Nate]

either option seems fine with me as well, i'm kinda indifferent, I'll participate in either forum, but i'd expect to post more on a non bionicle site.

Glad to see such a huge effort to improve this place! I personally won't vote, simply because I never bother with this site's non-BIONICLE discussion anyhow, but I hope that a decision can be reached, and I hope that with the new site (wherever it be), actual BIONICLE discussion here might pick up a bit.

[Mesonak]

Told you I'd post periodically.

I say just make a new forum. That way, for people who don't like Bionicle, and people who do, there can be options.

pointless polls are pointless.

Take it from someone with experince of the inner workings of the forum staff.
He's probably just gonna look at the one that wins,
ignore it completely, and either do something unessceray
that wasn't one of the two options, or just do the losing option.

[john]

Sagas makes a good point

hopefully go with the losing option because that's good

[Mesonak]

Have fun with that Aegis. XD

[Timekeeper]

Because suddenly Sagas has become one of the coolest kids ever of all time, and I'm impressed.
