yeah I can't believe how many members have joined since then, in such a small amount of time , so it does prove that it's becoming more and more popular every time it's shown on Challenge.
I've also noticed that more and more new members are joining the Challenge forum and asking for them to show more series! . Each time I look at the thrads there seems to be more and more new different members appearing. There are also some new not so new posters if you know what I mean, but I wont even go down that road!

Yes, I think there is something of a new generation of posters asking for them to pursue it. I haven't posted on there for ages, to be honest. I keep meaning to clear up some of the ratings issues, since people there seem to be distributing such awful misinformation. It's quite amusing that people see fit to comment on the ratings with the aid of no evidence whatsoever! In addition, when people post their ratings drivel here, and then get shot down by people who've actually looked into the ratings, they then go and post the same nonsense on Challenge's forum!

heh, cheers...hasn't really taken off yet
Come on people! come spew random rubbish!

as the votes started i'd thought i'd give the basic differences between the two boards...
i've changed the colour of the proboards forum to match the snitz and this one to avoid colour bias BTW.
basicly the colours on both are changable and the topics are easy change about too. main differences are that
proboards has advertising (a banner and occasional pop-ups...nothing a good blocker doesnt sort), whereas snitz doesnt.
The plus-side to proboards is that it pretty much uses exactly the same code as this one so it will take 0 getting used to. that said i have had no trouble with snitz as it's a forum type ive used previously.

Illusion's voice: "Malefact, you have been evicted. Please leave the Knightmare forum."
Oh, we'll have to take our pointless banter to the backup forum when it's been voted on. (Enters righteous mode to encourage everyone else to do so too.)
-
What?! Never! I can't improve my post count there!
In seriousness, I do hope a reliable and attractive back-up/off-topic forum will decrease the number of threads dragged wildly off-topic here, especially when people post just to up their postcounts. We all know threads naturally wander, and some nonsense is quite fun, but there are cases when it's a little tiresome that interesting threads get shoved off topic, and the poor people who've started those topics have to commit to pushing them back to the original topic. I'm half looking forward to waving my nagging finger. Oh, what a fibber I am- I'm completely and utterly looking forward to the prospect.
Again, in seriousness, I wonder if Illusion would give us some idea about what to expect here in future? Are you intending to lock more topics that stray too far, for example? Or are we hoping that preventative warning will be enough and people will naturally take their off-topic conversation elsewhere?
Oh, and before anyone thinks it, I'm not seriously suggesting Malefact is one of the offenders in driving threads off-topic.

so come on GG, less wagging, more voting
vote for the chij
one more plus for my forum since it's currently losing i seems to be slightly more active even if it has less members...so far. sign up GG/maly and show us some pointless gibberish the way it should be done.

It has always been the case that sometimes threads go off-topic occassionally. Naturally, it is very difficult to avoid, and if we were to be so specific that all posts must be on-topic then that would be impractical to moderate and people would get annoyed. There have only been a few occassions on this forum I have locked or removed topics that were way off topic. It was a much bigger problem a few years ago when we were using the Bravenet forum as the main forum, which did not have a registration feature and was more open to abuse.
However, I agree that the current Off Topic/Backup forum is not a very good alternative and this may be putting people off from using it. I think the replacement Off Topic/Backup forum which will be decided soon will be much better as they are similar in style to this forum. I think it should be effective in moving off-topic stuff away from this forum. In the days of the NKTP forum being used as an off-topic board, it worked pretty well.

At the moment it seems the most posted on backup Knightmare forum is...
... the Challenge forum! Everyone seems to pretty much just talk about Knightmare there. Apart from the 5 year olds who just insult one another, of course.

Thats true enough....

Good start as it seem like the new off topic backup forum server seems to have gone down. Saying that it seems like the Yahoo server seems to also have gone down. I am surprised that the server for this forum has not gone down so far today. How many people had problems yesterday though like me?
Anyway Illusion if you haven't already done so so could you please put a link to the new backup forum somewhere on the main website. Thanx

Talk about speaking too soon! It seems like most of the servers went down temporarily. I wonder if it's a problem with my provider (NTL) or if it is actually the heat. This heat is really causing problems for things overal: I woudn't like to be travelling on a train at the moment and be stuck on it at a stand still for 4+ hours. Anyway Snowwie what's the weather like were you are then. Ours is very hot with the odds high for the temperature to reach 40c (don't know if there's a way to put special characters like a degree sign in). I don't like it too hot as it makes me feel awful and tired and there are too many insects!
Anyway the sites seem to be working fine at for the moment!
