Half of the Outpost has been banned already. Needless to say, I don't think they like us and I just don't see it working out - at all.



Someone found the IGN rule book and basically it had a link to the Outpost and it said anything but that crap.

sad


Hope you guys enjoy the crappy new boards! Give em hell, but don't look to us to save you

hugs

I think it's annoying and ridiculous, and I'm thinking that we all should thank Mithan for keeping us from suffering any of that crap over here.

I'm unaffected since after a cursory look I decided that the move to IGN's board wasn't very compelling. I prefer the Refugee board style, setup and responsiveness.

Not a big fan of the IGN boards. I do like the layout of the refugee boards but I dont think they will catch on much. The ACF4 boards are cool but no moderation means bad for home w/kids.

I'm gonna stick with offical acf new ign till they banned everyone than maybe the refugee or the unmodded other place. modding is needed because some folks can't control themselves.

I just get this feeling the IGN Mods are being prodded into going overboard by the retards on the Vesti boards just to show us who the alfa males are.

I think you guys fail to realize that when you go to someone else's board you're going to catch a ton of crap. You need to just chew it back as fast as you can. If they break you they will never let up.

That's how it always is. New people from old boards being merged into the new boards are always treated like garbage, it's almost as you say a right of passage. Just take it for a bit and then in a week or so everyone will move on.

Don't quote me on this since I'm not an authority but I'm relatively confident that the same moderation levels will come into being on the Refugee board system for the respective board community sensibilities.

I just find it laughable that so many got banned. I mean come on, unless you were a brain dead retard, you had to have known that the IGN mods were going to be watching the new board like a hawk and lay down the law and make examples right off the bat, and the Outpost people just played right into their hands with their stupid "push the limits" crap.

But it is a forced move. It's not like anyone wanted to go there.

I'm probably a brain dead retard then. I figure, they are forcing us to go there, there should have been either been a GIANT rule book shoved in your face, or some lax on the new rules, especially since they ban for profanity and have a profanity filter.

You know what though? It's not as if we're being merged into another board and we have to deal with it. Only the framework is changing, we still have our own board. Just wait until the idiots from the Vesti get bored and it will be back to normal. Even more so when our local mods take over.

So you're saying that you had a group of people, plan a coordinated attack on you from another board, and they planned to bait and troll you incessantly until you responded, then the moderators banned you and not them?

Gee, doesn't this sound familiar somehow. whistling

Visible or "I just didn't know under what category to look for them from the main menu"?

Sorry, but they were visible the whole time.
