Some Ideas...

[FutureIverson]

Although im glad Zeropaid is concerned about filesharing. Outside of the lounge i i'm not 100% sure of posting outside of where you guys want us to?

I was just wondering what people thought about 1 or 2 new forums.
My first one was for Gamers - A part of P2P, but an even bigger part of time on the computer. Halo and stuff like that. I was wondering if we could explore the idea of having a forum, for just pc games, or we could have them for every system like xbox, ps2 etc. It's up to you guys. Gaming Reviews Etc.

Your votes will be anounymous for this poll...

I think its good for discussing ways to beat the game, patches and so on, but trading games isnt as good as one may to expect. The time, effort, and production of a game takes alot longer and takes alot of people working together.
I think their actually worth the money and they do drop conciderably in price after couple months.

In a lot of ways I think this would just encourage warez posts and the like. There are plenty of game sites out there with tips, hints, walkthroughs, etc. This is a file sharing site, and gaming would really have nothing to do with p2p (except for the fact that games are traded illegally).

So no, IMO

no

I disagree with phalkon30 that it will lead to warez, we arn't going to suddernly forget the rules.
I do agree, however, that there are plenty of other sites that specialise in gaming. The point of seperate forums is therefore limited.
I wouldn't complain if a games section was put in, but I'm not getting out of bed to go protest for one.

[phalkon30]

I have no doubt that you, and many other people here will remember the rules. What about newcomers to the site?

I just don't see the point on a file sharing site. We allready have 2 lounges....

I think it's less of a matter of US forgetting the rules, but more about those random people that hop along the internet posting stuff on forums without really paying attention to rules.

How about a NES forum? I know I'd like that. However, any information I want can probably be found in other places.

lol - looks like you are ganging up against me, but I'm going to hold my ground on this one. Yes a steady flow of Newbies will come, some breaking the rules, but we get that already. Perhaps we should shut down the music section to stop requests for music? Get rid of however many lounges we have to stop general trolling. The only way we are going to stop people breaking the rules is to shut the site down.
Not only that, but I'm not a mod and rule breaking is their problem. j/k

[Kevin06906]

Yeah, i think that is a good idea, to have a gaming forum.

To post anything about.......games.

Anyway, speaking about the rules of the forum......i can't find the rules...where are the forum rules? I've been here a year and i can't even find the rules....where are they at?

there is no request forum in here

Yeah it's my problem...lol I already spend enough time moving and editing and closing that a game section would probably be more work that it's worth. However I'm not completely closed to the idea. I think a gamer section would be nice even if it does require heavy moderation to keep it within our guidelines. I just don't know if all the mods are crazy about that idea.

Kevin they are at the top of every forum, you gotta move out of "new posts" land someday man.

Exactly, but we sometimes get people making requests. No reason to shut it down.
