aren't we better than accordians

[François]

i wasn't aware we were discordians

though i suppose it makes sense in retrospect

[Büge]

I did enjoy Discode, that's for sure.

[Mongrel]

What about Disco?

I enjoy Disco, does that count?

[Niku]

can we change real world and real life to names that don't make me briefly stare blankly while i try to remember which is which the one time a month i actually use the board listings instead of just clicking view all new posts

[Frocto]

I am fully in favour of changing "Real World" back to "Thad's Jizzporium."

Dissolve Guild Hall, move all topics to appropriate boards.  Do we really need it anymore?  Did we ever?

Yes, of course we do.  It's our way of removing truly horrible topics from public sight without having to deal with the endless whining bullshit that generally results from outright locking them.

Also, I know some people weren't comfortable posting their photos where anybody could see them, which is why all the self-portrait photo threads are in there.

Yeah, I'm aware of this, but I also think it's kinda dumb.  It's not like Guild Hall is on some super secret lockdown.  I guess if you're uncomfortable with your pictures being on a regular board, you should take this as a cue to go delete your posts before they are revealed!

Brentai makes a good point that GH is a convenient place for many troll threads, but the paradoxal restrictions on the board strike me as insane, and I'd rather it just be another board tucked away somewhere.

You fool! We seal away the Minotaur in Guild Hall when he starts being too annoying.  Without the labyrinth we might to endure his terrible logical fallacies.

You've doomed us all, Det.

[Detonator]

Okay, I made most of the non-Guild Hall related rearrangements.  If this rustles anyone's jimmies, they'll just have to

[Disposable Ninja]

Minor quibble: can we get gaming down at the bottom of the list of discussion boards? The Feng Shui of the boards is all fucked up with so many child boards up at the top.

I suggest the following order:

-High Context Discourse
-Real World
-Real Life
-Media
-Gaming and its three mini-boards

It'll look better, I think.

[Mongrel]

Agreed. DN's got the right idea.

Some other admin please namechange Detonator to Mark Zuckerberg as part of our new Truth in Moniker policy.

In unrelated news, I've accepted an offer from an advertising firm that will market cosmetic products to you based on how ugly you are.

Nothing like bringing those old retarded child boards back.  I do love having to click through to forums I don't care about just so it'll stop telling me there is new shit in the forum.  That's pretty much why people hated child boards in the first place.  But, I guess this way we can preserve space at the bottom because it is limited.

[TA]

Is there a way to not have three child boards taking up space at the top of the page for the Gaming board?

Your points are legitimate, it's just unfortunate that you chose to communicate them like an asshole instead of a person whose opinion I give a shit about.

Seriously, I'm not out to piss you off, but when you come off like such a douche I can't help but not care.

I don't feel any particular need to suck up to you after you announced intentions to de-privatize the private board after people asked you not to.

That said, it's nice for the update on how I hurt your feelings, but we've discussed child boards before.  Mostly in how we hated having Land of the Lust as a child board of Guild Hall, and having the WoW and TF2 boards as sub-boards of the Video Game forum.  You're free to do it, but don't act surprised when people at like a douche to you after you decide to fix forums that aren't broken.

The subject was brought up, but I don't recall anyone asking me NOT to "deprivatize" the "private" board.  Regardless, I agreed not to touch Guild Hall for the time being until more people have spoken up.  I don't see how that makes me a tyrant.

Also, I don't see how not being a sarcastic douchebag means you're "sucking up" to me.  Are you an asshole to everyone you meet just because you have no reason to be on their good side?  I understand the frustration you have towards my actions, but is that really called for?

One of my ideas was making Lust not a child board, but no one supported it.  And no, I'm not surprised when someone like Shinra or DN starts ragging on me because I expect it from them.  However, when someone like you or Frocto act so hostile with such little provocation, it DOES bother me, as little as you seem to care about that.

The board changes took 2 minutes to do, and they'll take 2 minutes to change back if everyone hates it.  I'm not taking the privacy concerns lightly, though I do believe people are overestimating the safety of Guild Hall.  I'll look into it further.

I'd rather the boards I bother to visit not be child boards.  I look at icons to see what boards have had new posts, and it's annoying to not be able to tell at a glance whether it's Guild Hall or Land of the Lust that got posts.  Lust should be its own board - if you don't want people seeing it then do the same thing to it you do to Guild Hall.

Also not be tricked into thinking Gaming got a new post when it's just blather about WoW.
