Well it's because we just want them to get it over with; It's going to happen eventually, and they aren't staying true to what they said they would do.

Re: The closing of the text-based games forums (in 1 week)

xD I don't really care if I'm not believed  smile

I was just trying to inform everyone that the Scratch Team are in fact working on a new forum. Not sound ultra-mega-super cool for finding something out -.-

Of course! But I don't think the TBG should stay because of all the innapropriate behavior. I also think that either they go to a different website or go [blocks]<forever>[/blocks]. But some people who want the TBG to stay, just want to get it over with because is IS going to happen!

They probably joined us. But only after they bothered to read the reasons, of course.

You made a very good point.  lol

Would you prefer they stay true to what they said, or not?

Re: The closing of the text-based games forums (in 1 week)

I notice that it says "Also known as Forum Games. This is an experimental category intended to contain this kind of threads to a particular section.". There are three problems with this: 1, it's not experimental, 2, it's not a 'category' (it'll only have one!), and 3, it isn't really containing those threads to a particular section (It's its own website!).

Note that the Text-Based Games in the Scratch Forums says the same thing. I was thinking about suggesting that they get rid of the 'experimental' bit, but it'll be gone soon, so I won't bother.

Re: The closing of the text-based games forums (in 1 week)

I found it the same way 06dknibbs did (by playing around with the url).
06dknibbs tried to hide it, but boy did we fix that!  tongue

Re: The closing of the text-based games forums (in 1 week)

o.O Jonathan, why are telling everyone I was telling the truth  tongue

But that is the URL, I don't see how it could cause problems, I only kept it hidden because the Scratch Team might not want it everywhere at the moment ^_^

---

For all those complaining about the TBG's still being here, I think they're going to exist until the new mods are chosen now  smile

Re: The closing of the text-based games forums (in 1 week)

Andres has asked me to create a TBG moderator election on Selectricity.org. It includes everyone who has asked to be a Text-Based Games moderator on this thread and on the New Election Speeches and Nominees thread.

You can vote here: http://selectricity.org/quickvote/tbgmods




I have already voted. ^^


http://i52.tinypic.com/5es7t0.png I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>
