Ughhh... UESP? XD

There's one site that has potential, though I don't know if they're willing to cross over here and join us. I mean, we tried once, under a different forum and it absolutely went nowhere.

Here, try this site instead. They seem to be active.

http://theelderscrollsrp.boards.net

I'll try and coerce some of my RPers in the other site I'm at. See if they're willing.

I HAVE NO GREETING


But other than that I´m fine

Hey Uleni.

What's up?

Chopping some firewood today, manually of course. Nothing like a little exercise in futility

Well, at least it's exercise.

I had to go and buy some new socks today, as mine are developing some rather nasty holes. Kind of irritating.

But at least it's been a nice day.

Here too which was the reason I bothered with said exercise

Heh, good weather here always makes me suspicious

It just looks like a trap!

I thought I was the only one who noticed they cut out the fanfics/RP/and FanArt sections with their new format. I think that will more than burn a few longstanding members off their site and eventually off their games if they give the bump off to their solid fans.

But, they might just be wanting to recruit a new generation that hasn't become accustomed to the benefits of being able to adore their favorite games in story/song/art/and roleplay (and in the meantime eliminate the cost of carrying all those things on their forums).

I don't know, but really hope I am wrong and they will surprise us with our stories back (or at least the ability to write more).

ESO's forum doesn't allow for discussion that I've been able to find, it looks like only select individuals are allowed speaking privileges on their forums.

Maybe this is the new trend; they are pushing off the forum stuff for individuals to open up their own sites to cover the creative fan bases and discussions?

Yep. Hard not to be suspicious these days, eh?




Oops. Went Canadian there, I reckon.

Eh, I'm suspicious by nature *shrugs*

Me too in a way. Whenever someone or something seems nice I always ask myself "what´s the catch?"

Well, you know what they about things that seem to good to be true...

Rather like the new Bethesda forums...

Urgh ... wait !!!! I came here from the Official Forum; so did Acadian, SubRosa, Foxy, Winter Wolf, King Coin, Destri, Darkness Eternal, Treydoggie, Arcry, Hazmick, Haute Ecole Rider, etc. I know there are more, because 15 of us moved in a pack from the Official forums to this one the year before Darkness and King Coin came; just can't remember them all right now.

I have seen the types you are talking about on the Official Forum though; and you are right - they can ruin a forum. But ... just don't send invites to them.

My Myspace group was a private one, by invitation only. I had 9000 members, 500 kept active accounts; and of those about 250 posted at least weekly. Some of them were from Bethsoft staff; like Matt Grandstaff (GStaff on the Bethsoft forum). There were approximately 35 who posted daily.

In the years that group ran, there were only two disruptive members who requested invites and then proceeded to flame the forums - their trial membership was immediately revoked before they could taint the atmosphere of our forum.

In all those years there was only one longstanding active member that flared up; a member everyone knew and loved. We knew it wasn't like him, so no disciplinary action was taken, instead I sent him a private PM. He told me what was going on, he was having some very serious issues in his RL that were eating away at him.

After talking it over with me, he apologized to the member he had jumped on; and then (on his own) decided to tell others on our forum what he was going through. The group came together for him, talked it out on the forum and he got the support of the whole site behind him through what he had to go through. That guy was not a trouble maker, no disciplinary action was needed or taken.

When Myspace changed its forum and deleted all groups for their new format; I quit Myspace. That was my last straw with them.

When the official forums did their last format change in March 2010; 15 of us came from the Official forums in a flock. I only went back to talk to a few friends over there, rarely if ever got on the forums after that.

Actually, the only reason I signed up for this new latest forum modification at Bethsoft is that I wanted my name preserved from any impostors being able to use it. I didn't plan to go back there anyway, Chorrol is my online home.

Gosh I must have missed this – I thought the new forum was only a beta of Beth General Discussion for now. I’ve been posting on the old forums waiting for the transition. The old ones are still open, including the Community Creations forum. How did you find the new Elder Scrolls ones?

On the ESO forum you have to buy the game and sign up first, then you can post.

I came here from da official forums, like, me too, I did



But...! But...! It has features n stuff..!

I looked there and it's dead.

There's a replacement at http://elderscrollsfrp.boards.net

No clue that I could find for why the change was made.

That place looks like it's dead too
