    If you could close a forum in SP,which would you choose and why?
    For me it's PoR,it's completely useless.

    Well, for me, it's a toss-up between Whatnots and the Alley.

    [​IMG] They all have some use to somebody :rolling:

    If we HAD to get rid of one though then I would probably say... Phlan or AORTA - from what I've seen nobody uses them

    I wouldn't close anything -- I'm not into on-line role playing, but some people are, so why shouldn't they have a place to go? I guess the only criteria for closure, to my mind, would be a long period of disuse.

    I agree, close POR, no one uses it. And I doubt that people search it for anything as the only interesting posts there are the ones that are saying how much it sucks

    PoR, and possibly Phlan.. the server has been down for ages, and besides, the server has a forum over at the ALFA site too, so...

    Whatnots, or NWN Toolset, can't decide.
    Whatnots is just crammed full of pointless...well...Whatnot stuff, and nobody posts in the Toolset forum anyway.

    PoR forum shouldn't be closed, because people who are planning to buy it, go there and read all the posts that say PoR sucks and then they don't wanna buy it anymore (I saved 10 euros, thanks for you all, who hate PoR) :D

    Be shocked:
    BG2:SoA :evil:

    Since I have ToB installed, I'm not allowed there, right?
    And it would force all people to buy ToB, via SP oc, so Tal would have enough money for running SP a couple of months/years/ages.
    We would have less posts like: Hey shouldn't this be in ToB-forum?
    Also, I might, just might, need the other forums some time, be it for flaming a game or posting pointless or funny things.

    Wow, what a tough choice. It would be like killing an old friend.

    I'd probably close the Alley of Dangerous Angels. There are so many liberals and agnostics here that it just gets frustrating for a little cleric like me. So much evil :evil: , so few attacks/round with my holy avenger ;) :good:
