EDIT: I'd like to clarify; it's not been decided to shut down the forums at all, it's just my reaction to the stuff I've had to deal with while I'm away on vacation, while I was at SDCC, and my desire to not repeat that again while I'm gone at Otakon. There is definitely going to be a discussion, so don't worry, something will be worked out :)
It has come to my attention that a handful of Forum goers have decided to wreak havoc and annoy the mods and other forum goers.
A lot of grief and annoyance was shared with me over the SDCC weekend, the only blight in an otherwise excellent ocassion, and I am considering shutting down the forums in response. Apologies to those who don't deserve to be shut out, but what with Otakon coming up and other events in the near term, I don't have time to deal with this. I'll leave it ultimately up to Aaron, but I think I am strongly in favor of shutting down the forums until we have the time to deal with it, rather than suffering the spread of posts, content, and links we cannot approve of in the board.
As I've mentioned in the forums already, the forums are for fun only, and for the readers to *share*. That applies to everyone on the board, including the mods, but if people won't share, we'll just take away the toy. Anyway, later all, I just got back from SDCC and there's still stuff I need to catch up on.
