forum will not be created at this time.

we have the travel forum where people can repost an oot locked thread.

we have the lounge, which is not getting the traffic i think it should have.

start there. and as long as oot numbers are making up 10% of our traffic, I'm going to call that forum and it's mod a success.

i don't care that oot is not for everyone as long as we have alternatives. and we do. convince me otherwise, and we'll create a new forum.

I could be wrong, but i think you misunderstood the concept (unless it changed, i stopped reading here after my last post and just came to see if it is up and running).

This isnt a forum created to compete with OOT, the idea is that no one can start threads there but it is just a place to move threads that dont break any rules but arent "good enough" for the forum they were created in.

In essence it is used instead of the lock and stuff that would normally be deleted would still be deleted.

That was it can be a bit of a "walk of shame" where a few can come and bash them for a bad thread, or threads which had potential could flourish and perhaps even be moved back to its origional forum like OOT.

after lots of thought and feedback from others, i no longer see the value.

show me numbers and a bunch of locked threads in the lounge and travel. then i'll consider it again.

The lounge is a doomed forum, merely a history lesson waiting to be written.

I started a thread there once and received about a dozen one line replies when the sticky clearly prohibits one line replies. I guess it still prohibits one line replies, I never returned.

I posted a NSFW due to loud audio link (on my way out) which contained rude comments about the Lounge which was really bad manners on my part but who really cares about a forum that doesn't obey its own sticky?

I cannot believe that we will never have a bunch of poletards and random board rejects called "Tuq's Mooks" running around.

This is stunning, shocking and stupefying. This is a miscarriage, a travesty of horrors!

NT,

Maybe move all those threads to the Lounge and they can nurture them there? DB? Maybe add tug as a mod!
