Sounds like you're not going to have to re-register so you won't lose your post count or if worse case you did lost it they would update your new account by hand.

I've not really been looking forward to the spam can anyway. I like my shiny gold star.

I remember working to get past the "5 fruity stars" you used to get for post counts between 1k and 5k (I think). They were the worst stars ever.

Don't know why they would, but they might. Wouldn't last long, everyone would just go take over one of the boards in the general entertainment category that no one is using. Vesti is a hell hole.

They do have some neat stuff, they even have a sex board shock

And a babes board. Rik can help that place out, it needs it.

Outpost, ACF, and Darktide are the only boards on VN that get any traffic these days, be sorta stupid for them to nuke them, since traffic equals money.

We don't know, we hope they can be kept and that's what we're aiming for. Mithan or Teddy can give more on this.

We plan to [sorry, clarification: move not merge, it'd be it's own board] the Outpost, and others, over there.

You don't need to re-register, your account here is an IGN account too, just different post counts and histories.

i assume that he or she is someone's reroll that doesn't quite go back that far.
whoever it is cracks me up and i really don't want to know who it may or may not be.

i prefer to believe that an actual dragon posts here from time to time.

can you tell us if accomplices to child rape or "rape proxys" be allowed at this wonderful new Outpost?

i certainly hope not because such people, who are often associated with Ramones posts, can create a
very uncomfortable (and let's not beat around the bush.... unprofitable) atmosphere.

i truly believe that a new Outpost can be the bi-partisan, rape-free environment that we all want it to be.
in this vein, i strongly recommend that certain Outpost posters be perma-banned for the better good.
