Every regiment should copy+paste every single post on their old regiment threads into the new one, one by one so that it has exactly the same number of posts and pages. Also make get every member who ever posted in the thread to do their own posts individually to recreate it as accurately as possible.

Then we'd have to recreate the mutes, warnings, snips, etc etc. 2complicated4me

god damn, Anthony is smart, he was able to get the shit AEF to tie with the best reg in the game. The tactical geniusness needed to pull off such a feat is insane. He's the Erwin Rommel of NW.

I am curious at what makes these threads so special, can I ask people to link the content of these threads that makes this whole thing controversial.
Would you like for your steam account to be deleted and for you start all over again? Exactly, that's how the threads are.

That is just a really weird and bad example, especially since with a STEAM account people sort of actually spend money and enjoy themselves.

Whilst here now people seem to have developed a weird fucked up stockhold syndrome situation with the DLC, the community and these forums.

A thread on a message board is sometimes just a thread on a message board. Just like a gaming clan is just a gaming clan.

Have you ever had something that evoked a memory from you? For example, going through photos whether it be IRL or from games and going "oh man, those were some great times, I sure do wish I could go back to those days". That's how these threads are, they allow people to really sort of go back in time to see how these forums were so long ago. I myself know, seeing as that I'm semi-liked among the community, like to go back to the older threads and go through the older posts and reminiscence of the posts and how humor was so different back then was in addition to seeing the older faces that no longer browse these forums for whatever the reason be.

"Whilst here now people seem to have developed a weird fucked up stockhold syndrome situation with the DLC, the community and these forums. "
First of all, it's Stockholm Syndrome, second, I don't recall FSE being, as Wikipedia states, "captors". This is a community forum where people come to communicate through whatever means we like, whether it be through pictures, discussion, small chat, jokes, etc. Sure, people may have been banned or are no longer present here due to bans, but to call FSE captors? No wonder you were the worst mod, because you thought you were the gestapo. You're supposed to just lend a helping hand to a situation, not shoot the crowd. Anyways, ranting aside, you may see them as just virtual boards being taken down but in reality, there is a lot more then what meets the eye with the forums, no matter what it be and a lot of people recognize that. It's for this reason, that people are resenting this and seeing no point of their threads that they spent hours reading and writing being taken down in an instant and just thrown away. However, I'm sure this doesn't affect you as you've never been in any sort of community where this would affect you.

You can sort of have this back, you guys just not to stop being mad at video games and video game people. You all get way too much involved over clans/forum threads/games.

I myself just cannot see the whole big deal behind this, and the fact that it seems every single time the FSE crowd do something in these forums they can't seem to get anything right.

Since they split the event section up, have you considered requesting to split the EU/NA regiment section up so the need to constantly 'bump' the thread?

I also suggest reading the EULA if these changes really rile you up, I'm pretty sure what they do around here is pretty much all by the book and you all agreed to it when registering to these forums. Vince and the other FSE staff have posted deep down technical stuff that explains why they need to do it to.

And finally, I rarely see gaming forum threads these days with like 300-400 pages guys. A lot of the stuff you post can easily be transfered over to a Reddit or something.

Subreddits have to be interesting.

Judging by the fact we're on a forum in order to be more involved with our regiments, there is reason to be over involved and into our threads.

Usually because of the fact that whenever FSE decides to do anything regarding the community it comes out of the middle of no where. We never get any word of anything so whenever we get nailed in the side by FSE no one expects it and people are thrown off by a sudden change. That's just basic human psychology, to resist change if you yourself have no idea of it.

You really need to proofread. Anyways, that was a community suggestion for over two years and was only recently integrated after FSE added in the new moderators and let them help bring more community focused ideas.

"Deep down technical stuff" that contradicts in many ways. Judging by the fact that we're supposed to use spoilers with anything to help improve "performace" and then suddenly changing to "we're going to be taking down these forums for performance reasons even though our big bros at TW's use the same stuff and aren't having any problems"

Because someone is actually going to set aside time to make a subreddit, okay, seems legit.
I'm pretty sure that I could find many instances of where forums have massive threads but I'm not going to commit more time to this by digging into the internet to find useless data, anyways, many of the regiments that have been here for around a year plus have well over 200 pages and it's nice for the leader to see that "hey, it sure has come a long way". I for one, thought it was prestigious for a regiment to have a big thread with a lot of views so new people could come in and say "oh wow, look at the views on that thread, they must be renowned and well know, let me read their thread" or something along those lines.

Anyways, I've spent enough time practicing argumentation for my AP exam.

I've stopped listening to Nurdbot. He's little more than a sniveling sycophant.

I've never understood the whole "rage about FSE" and not leave sort of thing. Why doesn't someone just go make their own forum? You can literally get a template if you don't know html or css and rent a domain...

No, I'm a grown adult trying to reason with people who refuse to see common sense and calm down. Clearly, it isn't working.

And I am done for good.

You really think because we don't agree with these choices that we're automatically juvinile? We just want a freakin' voice damn it, to hell with the EULA. These forums belong to us, not a bunch of people who're disconnected from the community entirely.

I've said time and time again we need a new forum, but the last time I tried to garner support McEwan decided to lock my thread. So riddle me this Sean, how the fuck are we childish when whatever we say feels useless?

In the Political thread I typed "psychopath" and it auto-corrected to sycophant. Here I mean it.
