I remember when some people were complaining abot this place, and I used to stick up for it. Know what? It's worse now. Most of the things here arent even funny, it's as if the place became a way to up your post count. almost every thread goes off topic within about five, and it isn't even funny any more, it's just pointless.

There, opinion over

Perhaps I should begin to enforce a new "gag rule" here?

Has it really gone to ****?

I dont really think so. It's certainly not as bad as it could be.

Perhaps you think you are being treated... unfairly?

Ah but in all seriousness...we can tone down on the crazy retard spam (Leeloo, crono, nash, etc). I know its all in fun and a fat caffiene rush, but maybe keep some of the crazy one-liners to AIM or something. Not that we don't like it, but it does detract from the other story-based or longer threads in that it pushes them to the back pages...and in EZ-terms, that eventually means oblivion.

Worst I've ever seen it. Look at most of the threads on page 1 witha lot of posts. the last few are nearly all the same people, talking about unrelated things. What's the point in starting a thread? Give it a day, and you'll have lost any meaning

Well people want to have fun and relax sometimes. You could create another forum for it but those responsible might just stay here.

Well feet does have a point the serious threads are going spam or getting pushed down.. maybe we should make an ooc form under the bar thread?

I'm reluctant to say STOP now.

Cause I realised I need a place to chill. And I'm having fun

The idea of say an OOC forum would have happened long ago, except ther eis one at SWFans. And we are not in competition with them at all. Except, I also realised some people just plain dont want to go there, because the atmosphere is generally friendlier here. Allright, how about that? An OOC forum here?

Oh no! Opinions, duck for cover!

Just joking <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/image/emoticons_classic/smile.gif ALT=":)">

In all seriousness, I'm fine with the meaningless posts. I don't normally make them myself, but it doesn't bother me to see them.

I don't see anything wrong here, Fett.

Seriously, I see happy people having fun. And that's what we want. Happy people.

Not every damn thread has to be serious. So, you have your IC and your OOC threads. Maybe most don't feel like an IC thing now. Maybe they just want to talk to friends in an OCCerly fashion.

Honestly, I don't know what your griping about, if this is a gripe.

I see nothing wrong happening, and I see no reason to stop any of it.

I think I am to blame somewhat :( I have posted meaningless things in the short time I have been here. But, I do have a serious side <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/image/emoticons_classic/smile.gif ALT=":)"> Which was seen in trying to build a totally new board allied with the GJO.

Amazon, you miss my major problem. OOC stuff? Fine. But most threads end up with the same two or three having a conversation. Not related, they just come in and ruin the thread. Now, if thats the sort of place you want, fine, I'll get my coat

Ah, I think I understand what you mean then, Fett. Didn't mean to sound all huffy.

So, was there any way you had in mind to prevent ppl from doing this? Or do we just let it slide by?

you didnt sound huffy <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/image/emoticons_classic/smile.gif ALT=":)">

I don't think there really is any way. Just warn people, and get rough if it carries on <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/image/emoticons_classic/smile.gif ALT=":)">

I've just read this and I now profess to have absolutly no idea what your complaining about now. Please explain and provide an example?

If anything, the problem lies ina completely different direction It comes down to the fact the old time people have basically moved on and we are lacking a good inflow of new people to replace whom are gone.

I think this is a good place, but lacking replacements. Other places have people, but do lack the really top notch peopel who do come here. The problem is that every man + dog has done a Jedi Council or a RP board and it's splitting the groups up so that they are too thin on the ground.

Now I know some people say that there will be more when AOTC aarrives. I dont think so. What I do think is that the groups are now too spread out and too thin to survive. Even GJO is becoming too thin and we are one of the best groups without argument.

It's not the quality anymore that is a problem. I find this place relaxing now and frankly I dont care about how good or how bad. It's the fact there is few people and GJO isn't the official Jedi order of any major RP area, apart from SWFans and that can be debated.

I'll suggest something. You want to fix problems? Start to bring the Jedi boards together again. Do the same as which bought GJO around in the first place. Bring the Jedi togther and dont spread them out. Serve several bords, not just one.

Else this place WILL go to ****, cause it will just simply die when no one is left.
