It got moved because:

2. They now have their own moderators to take care if it

Also, this argument isn't valid. These are the results of it being moved not the reasons.

Re: Text-Based Games belong in their own forum, not in here

Okay... I should have phrased it differently.  tongue

How about:

1. Moving it would clearly seperate their existence from the Scratch Forums
2. Moving it and appointing new moderators would make the Scratch moderators happier.

I may not be right; I'm just saying what I remember and what seems to make sense.

Why not just get the mods they have now, and get them to moderate the TBG's that were here.

(Sorry to start up this argument again....just curious.)

(Nothing wrong with curiosity...  smile  )

As for your question, I don't know the exact answer (how would I know?  tongue ), but I think it was because the moderators were getting tired of removing words, flames, and moderating the hundreds of posts that poured into the TBG. When they held an election, people ran because they knew what they were going into and would eagerly moderate the posts.

Re: Text-Based Games belong in their own forum, not in here

This sticky is old... and he's already a TBG moderator.  tongue

He has four stickies.  yikes

I only have two... I would have gotten another, but I stood up for BYOB.  tongue


About the earlier posts: Why is it no one knows anything about the TBG? Why didn't they go and see Andrés's topic that explained everything?  roll

Threads that are stuck to the top of the first page of a forum - they can't be buried.

Re: Text-Based Games belong in their own forum, not in here

Why was it opened?
Nevermind, probably because of the large number of text based game type threads that have reappeared in the miscellaneous.

Ace has a point. Maybe so we can bump this thread so people can be reminded when it's title becomes bold and so it is more noticeable.

This thread is a GREAT reminder to people who put games in the Misc. forum! They should know that this is MISC., not the TBGs

Re: Text-Based Games belong in their own forum, not in here

Oh wait, it might've been closed because of the 2 weeks limit in Miscellaneous. I don't know how it affects stickies though, let's test it out with another sticky.

I have problems with getting there a lot as well...  hmm
Sometimes I can visit everywhere except the thread pages, and sometimes I can't even get there.

It got better, though...

Re: Text-Based Games belong in their own forum, not in here

I typed in the URL, then it would be ages for the loading bar to work and it didn't navigate away from the page even when the bar filled. Then I came to this thread to click the link, but I got a Page Unavailable.

However on Spades, I loaded it instantly.
