I took it as they're integrating the boards onto IGN's where you'll have to use your username on that side, meaning PMs gone, post count gone, etc.

won't know for sure til this FAQ i guess

Seriously, this is fucked up. These are our boards. We've populated it, we created the community, and we kept it going.

Ah. I didn't think it was going to be a big deal. I had to check though. They have an ignore list.

It was good run gentlemen and a pleasure knowing you all. I hope you enjoyed my 4k thread. I knew me, Arclite and CP would be finished by the end of the month one way or another, I wasn't lying, was I?

ahh I missed this post... PM's gone hmm thats kinda bad but doesn't seem super essential... and I wonder if IGN would add the ability to PM if enough people requested it? same for post count maybe?

This actually will probably be the absolute end of AC for me. Considering I hated change enough to never play another MMORPG, I doubt I would continue posting if the format changed drastically.

The boards on IGN's side allow for users to PM each other and hold post counts, however everything on the VN side will be gone.

In reading some of Mithan's posts, he's also alluded to the fact that not all boards are going to be recreated on the IGN side. The mods have never been a fan on VNDT, definitely an opportunity here for them to just forget about us.


People talk about the possibility of migrating to clan boards, etc, but the problem is I really don't see a the entire VNDT population moving to one place. Community gone.

sucks

hmm when you say "everything on the VN side will be gone" you mean the wiping of the boards?

like the removal of:
http://vnboards.ign.com/ac_general_board/b5141/p1
http://vnboards.ign.com/ac_trade_skills_board/b5259/p1
http://vnboards.ign.com/ac_utilities/b5432/p1

etc including DAOC boards etc?

I dunno I'm not convinced yet its the end hehe... like if they make even one single AC related board on the IGN side we could all move to that... like say they keep the Frostfell board and nuke the rest lol... we could all pile onto the FF board haha



oh shoot... you know I don't think they would nuke all the boards... because with all worlds crammed into one forum, the front page would update so fast... if someone made a post it would be on page 3 within 10 seconds lol... so for the sake of all worlds they would keep them seperate...

although I guess they could still do a scenario where frostfell, verdantine, morningthaw, harvestgain, etc are recreated on IGN but they leave off darktide... that would suck hehe... but if they do that maybe we could pick one of the white worlds like harvestgain and all post there... but then I guess they'd ban dt related posts tho?

yeah I dunno I got a feeling they will migrate the DT forum too... but we'll see I guess... the Caustic forums idea sounds like a good plan B to me if IGN ends up crumbling
