Count D and the Indy Forum

[Mr Wallstreet]

On the xsorbit board, CountD moderated the Indy Forum. If he does not wish to continue moderating it, I would like to moderate the Forum. Thank you for your time ;D

[Tragic Angelus]

If meek? doesn't show up in time, can I have the DC board? :D

[ChimeraCreative]

Where the bloody blinking blooming hell is meek?

[Tragic Angelus]

Graduating from the Jim Lee school of Internet use, apparently.

[wolf_2099]

What makes you think I don't want the job?

[Tragic Angelus]

The Indy Board? All yours.

But I laid dibs on DC first :D

[wolf_2099]

And Marvel?

[Mr Wallstreet]

What makes you think I don't want the job?

You didn't speak up. On this board of vultures, its first come first serve.

I came first and I demand to be served first.:cool:

[ChimeraCreative]

I left CountD a PM on the temp BX board to swing by this place. Youse two could probably co-mod if you're both salivating for control of it. ^_^

Edit... I'm inclined to agree that it's first come, first serve. I'm surprised there's some folks taking their sweet ass time to mosey on over. No meek, no Thug, no CBKA, no Bummer. O.o

[Mr Wallstreet]

I PMed D as well a few days ago. If D is willing to share mod-ship that's cool and if he wants to mod the board by himself, that's fine by me as well. It was his board after all.

[ChimeraCreative]

Aw, don't concede yet. In true Indy style D and yourself can fight to the death for control of the Indy forum. ^_^

[Mr Wallstreet]

No, no. D is a gentleman and a scholar. I'll not sully his good name by challenging him to brutish combat.

[wolf_2099]

What about dueling pistols?

[Mr Wallstreet]

Based on my performance in first person shooter games...D would win :(

[Mr Wallstreet]

I do believe CountD was not aware of this new board. I've PMed him the url and bumped the thread with the link for the new board.

[wolf_2099]

Hmm, excellent. Who else?

[XIII]

Meek? Where the hell is Meek?

[wolf_2099]

Masterbating over iphone porn.

[XIII]

He might be working on his portofolio to bring to Wonder Con.

[ChimeraCreative]

I do believe CountD was not aware of this new board. I've PMed him the url and bumped the thread with the link for the new board.

Between our spamming we've finally managed to secure D. ^_^

[Tragic Angelus]

Meek? said he won't be here for awhile, that he has a few things to take care of and he'll use Facebook first, and get to the board later on.

[The French Biscuit]

And in the meantime, Meek's asked if I could mod the Creative Cafe.

Does this sit well with the rest of you?

[XIII]

It's the best choice I think. :)

[MGM]

Yeah, and when he gets here you two can co-mod it.

[Tragic Angelus]

he also handed reigns of the DC board to myself until he returned

[ChimeraCreative]

So if we're all in agreement

Creative Cafe - Biscy and Meek
DC - Tragic and Meek
Indy - D and Wally

And maybe we should add an extra warm body to PHIYST? Any suggestions or volunteers?

[Tragic Angelus]

If you want to add someone else to PHIYST, I'd suggest someone who's here often, like our resident Dutchman

[XIII]

Argh, don't let the Dutch in charge of anything!

[wolf_2099]

Sigh. Why do I never get to moderate anything?

[MGM]

Apply! What'd you want anyway?

Also, while I'm around a lot at the moment, I can't say for sure I will be around a lot in the future. I also don't read every topic in the PHIYST forum. Well, now I do, but at the old BX I hardly did and I doubt I will in the future when more people arrive.

[wolf_2099]

I'd probably be good for Marvel, Indy, or the movie/book forum, as I have the most interests in those and could generate the most threads.

[The French Biscuit]

It's the best choice I think. :)

Merci much. :D

[The French Biscuit]

Yeah, and when he gets here you two can co-mod it.

I'm down with this plan. :cool: It guarantees that at least one of us will be around at any given time.

[MGM]

I'd probably be good for Marvel, Indy, or the movie/book forum, as I have the most interests in those and could generate the most threads.

I don't mind a co-mod. I'm more into music, so given you're more into movies, this could work out pretty well.

[wolf_2099]

Although, I should ask. what do mod's even do for our boards now?
Just try and generate conversation and threads?

[MGM]

Pretty much that. It's not like we need heavy moderation here.

[CountD]

I've been wanting to relinquish my duties for a while.

I'll step aside if the change hasn't been ok'd yet....

[XIII]

I must say that as a mod, I do mostly nothing. Jim Lee would be proud.

[Tragic Angelus]

No, you said you do mostly nothing. That means you're still doing more than he does.

[William McDert]

I also want the Indie forum, but just for the anime/manga :P

[XIII]

Maybe we should make an Anime/manga forum and have it apart from the Indie forum?

[ChimeraCreative]

Adam was initially surprised that Manga/Anime wasn't a separate forum, but when I told him there's about five people tops that care deeply care about manga, he understood. Although he did point out that's like 25% of our board's population, which is a significant number. That magnificent bastard. ^_^

[Mr Wallstreet]

Okeydokey. But remember, you're welcome back anytime

I also want the Indie forum, but just for the anime/manga :P

With D on a sabbatical, I don't mind co-modding the Indy forum with McDert. However, there appears to be discussion about separating the Anime/Manga from the Indy forum. What is the final decision for that?

[ChimeraCreative]

I dunno, who makes the final decision? ^_^

I'd personally vote against it because of lack of interest and it'll be downed like a wounded gazelle by post-whoring wolves. But on the flip side, we might give some members that don't post quite as much (my sister and Python for example) a place to frolic unfettered.

[William McDert]

LET US FROLIC BY GOD

[XIII]

I swear that if you set up an Anime/Manga forum, I won't go there. I won't postwhore there. I'll stay away from for as long as I can et frolic in the manga-free Indy forum.

[wolf_2099]

I swear that if you set up an Anime/Manga forum, I won't go there. I won't postwhore there. I'll stay away from for as long as I can et frolic in the manga-free Indy forum.

Good lord, I concur.

[MGM]

As do I, but I don't see the need for it.

[XIII]

I don't remember asking for your opinion! :mad:

:D

[MGM]

And I don't see why your opinion would count, with you being French and all. :D

[William McDert]

let us be the nerdiest of all please.

[The French Biscuit]

Yeah, I concur with the Anime/manga separation party.

Some people really don't like it, and we're kinda being a thorn in their side by sharing space with the indy crowd. :sweatdrop:

[MGM]

Nah, you're not really a thorn in our side, we just like messin' with you. http://i.fokzine.net/s/wink.gif

[Stocky Boy]

I say make them separate. It's just another forum. As long as we don't start making separate forums for "Marvel News" and "DC News" and "General Comics News" we won't be overstretching the number of useful, populated forums and making it difficult to decide where to post things.

Separate forum for Manga/Anime and Indie books!

[Mr Wallstreet]

I rather like having the Anime and Indy forums together. I'm not into Anime at all but I do like to check into the threads from time to time and see whats what.

[Stocky Boy]

Dude, if that was a valid argument, then there would only be one forum. :)

Seperate! You like it, but Arn and Cam are no fans. Biscy, Meek and Kid could then have a unique little playhouse all to themselves to leave the big grown ups like me, Cam, D, some other dude - Wall something? - and Arn to discuss indie books.

[MGM]

I'm afraid we'll get too many forums with little topics.

[wolf_2099]

Makes sense. No reason you can't pop down one to see Anime, that way we don't sift through the anime posts.

It isn't a huge deal either way to me, though.

[Mr Wallstreet]

books.

You're getting a little full of yourself aren't you? ;)

Like I said, I like having Anime with Indy but its not something I passionately want to fight for so I'm cool with separating them. :)

[Tragic Angelus]

I really don't see the problem with seperating it. I mean, so what if the seperated forums have little posts? I mean it's our board and we use it when we want, how we want.

Personally, I never was a fan of seeing the Indie/Anime with new posts/threads, only to find out they were almost always Anime/Manga stuff, and like Arn and Cam, I can't stand the stuff.

Also, if you're planning on bringing more people into the board over time, having them seperated now will be a big help rather than when there are soooo many threads and topics that it becomes harder and more work to do later on when we eventually decide to do it.

[Stocky Boy]

Ed makes good points!

[CountD]

Keep it one board: 4 mods: Kid, Wall, Ty, and Bisc

[CountD]

ignore the thredz you don't like

[Tragic Angelus]

Ed makes good points!

Thank you sir. :)


And I mean, normally I do ignore threads I don't want to pay attention to, but in the old board it was almost nothing BUT Anime/Manga, with a few Indie threads tossed in, so searching for them or rooting around to get to them got annoying.

Like I said, it's our board. there's no reason we can't have boards we want, right?

[ChimeraCreative]

Wally can pick a co-mod if he wants one. Or we can wait to see if D wants to get back on board with the Indy forum.

MGM, do you think Fash would like to join you in Mind Candy? Or conversely, Fash, do you want to join MGM in Mind Candy? ^_^

[MGM]

Er... I think Wulf clearly mentioned he'd not dislike the Mind Candy. I haveno trouble with either of them, but he was first.

[ChimeraCreative]

Oh, cool beans. I plum forgot who was interested in what (clearly). I don't know how anyone can mod Mind Candy in the first place. What's a movie? ^_^

(thanks, Mic) *reps his ass*

[Mr Wallstreet]

Wally can pick a co-mod if he wants one. Or we can wait to see if D wants to get back on board with the Indy forum.



I'll mod the Indy forum myself for now but if anyone wants to co-mod with me, they are more than welcome.
