Its just cracking me up, everybody's acting like the board is being closed/ forced to change into something it's not, and the reality is, it will be the same old ACF, just with a new web address (and possibly no post counts- oh no, however will we cope?!)

Members are bound to be lostm in the transition, and I doubt the forum style and layout will be the same.

So much of that comfort and familiarity is tied up in how the place looks. It'll feel like a totally different forum on IGN. I bet you it won't look like this

Actually, it will change a fair amount.

We will have a working search feature, and best of all, an "Ignore User" feature.

They are supposedly moving ACF (as well as the Outpost, DT, and one other board that no one has ever identified) en mass an total to IGN.

So we should be able to post there like nothing happened, same board, same people....but you know it wont work. We will lose some people in the change. Old posters who haven't posted in a while will never find us, no more "blasts from the past".....it will end badly.

In a year, the new ACF will be down to 12 posts a day, in 2 years....it wont exist.

Thanks for the mammaries everyone. See ya on the other side....hopefully.

Awesome.

So, since I am late to this party, any idea if the forum as presented to us will change? Will it become like the IGN forum format? Or should it be seamless to us and not change except we will get some new folks from the other forums being consolidated?

Meh...I quit caring about post count about a decade ago. I thought for a long time there was no post count. Does that thing still increment? I haven't noticed.
