There is a need for some young players to have their own section, a new area. this is crap that needs a special place for teens, pre-teens and kiddies to enjoy their particular brain buzz.



what are you doing

what is better drums or guitars

what are you eating

do you have long hair

the pinkachos vs spamalot

what size are your feet

how old are you

do you pop your zits

do you like butts or tits

what are you listening to

is Xbox cool

do you own a cell phone





get this shit out of the clubhouse or give them the clubhouse and make a new fucqing clubhouse for my conspiricy stuff etc. :wink:

for the love of God

even separate sport questions from "how big are your feet"

yes, this is a great idea. I'm tired of seeing the immature crap posted by naive teenagers. Let them have their own thread. teenagers are morons. I should know, I married one of them. The whole time, I just count down the days til she turns 25 and grows a brain.

PS, please God, don't let Kayla see this thread, and I'll go to church every Sunday

Eh, I just don't think theres much demand for it. For a site with a h-u-g-e membership base, CCs forums are relatively dead. The flame forum is no exception.

Uhh...no. Check the clubhouse and how "dead" that is.

Of course. I have a feeling this is because you got raped by each "naive teenager" in Flame Wars. Am I right or am I right?

50 threads which have had a reply in the last day is 'life support', if that.

No. Dude this forum isn't "dead" It's more than alive and kicking! Go to forum games and see how many mafia games there are! See how many people are posting! If you seriously think these forums are dead you are deluded. And you're wrong about your statistics. 50 threads with about 50(at least) posts in the last day

Nice! A concentrated, narrow span of topics are highly active and supported by an even narrower amount of contributors. You've convinced me I was mistaken.

I also took the time to rediscover the breadth of amazing discourse to be had on the forums.

My apologies for my original, incorrect, uninformed observation. I was indeed deluded.

:lol: Good one Elwar. I knew you were a good player but I never expected this :wink:

As for Jamie. You're a noggart (No, I have no idea what that is).

Xtra.. Why don't you get your own forum for the conspiracy theories and we still get the Clubhouse? :wink:

He's quite right. As far as forums are concerned, CC's are somewhat dead when compared to the membership numbers, some forums with half the members of here get twice as many posts. I see no demand for a new, separate forum (from CC's point-of-view) that would draw a large amount of activity from the existing forums.

Do I like the idea? Yes. I would like a place here aimed at the more mature-posting crowd, but logic says you keep a lower number of forums that are more active then a higher number that get less posts.

I have noticed the Forums dying down a bit, but could that just have to do with the fact that a majority of the players on this site are now back in school? I'll bet it picks up slightly over Thanksgiving/Fall Break and during the Christmas season.

Although, if Twill is correct in that the staff is going to get expanded and include people with specified roles within the forums I could see the potential for a Politics/Opinions Forum opening up, but only if there was someone willing to be on top of what was being discussed. There would need to be perhaps 2 or 3 relatively level-headed individuals who had power only in that Forum and who would keep a very close eye on the topics being created. If it didn't meet a specific facet of that forum's purpose it could get moved straight over to the Clubhouse/Miscellaneous Forum.

Personally, this is how I wouldn't mind seeing it broken down.

Announcements

General Discussion (specifically for CC related topics)
1. Questions & Answers
2. Plug-ins & Add-ons
3. Strategy

Tournaments
1. Ongoing
2. Completed
3. Abandoned

Flame Wars

Suggestions (stand alone forum)

Bug Reports (stand alone forum)

Callouts
1. Clan Callouts

Map Foundry
1. Map Ideas
2. Final Forge

Cheating & Abuse Reports

The Clubhouse
1. Forum Games (including a mafia sub-forum within Forum Games)
2. Politics/Opinion

It is irratating, but sometimes the sex is pretty good. :P

whenever mine started growing a brain they gave me the option of marriage and kids or being single, they always left. :D

As long as iliad is around certain threads will never die, because he loves to bump to keep them going. He simply spams up every thread, just to get his post count up. Which is ok, but it doesn't make the forums lively by any means. In fact it makes them boring as heck!

Wait, what, hold on a minute, oh my stars - xtratabasco appears to be implying that a thread started by btownmeggy might be, I don't know, vacuous, or something?

Well, you'd bloody know a vacuous thread when you see one, xtra, judging by the shit you pump out on a regular basis.

I was just about to say something of that effect :(

Anyway, I'd like a sports sub-forum... I'm so tired of sports threads everywhere, seeing as how I hate em and all... Ya, I'm a lazy bastard. So sue me.

I agree with xtra, there is a need for another forum for even more dumb, off topic, immature type of threads. The hypocritical thing is that I am a teenager :oops:

I don't think so. IF you notice these "teens" are the posts who take up the majority of the posts. Ever notice how the clubhouse is the most active board. ;) Also I'm glad it changed, back when it was all serious trash, now it's FUN! :D Xtra is just mad because he meaningless trash gets ingored. Poor Xtra. Go back to the flame forum.
