What's this forum for?

Seriously, it seems to me that the staff might as well delete this forum. You want a secret forum where you can exclude others? Start up a User Group forum. You want a forum for intelligent conversation? The Spin Zone and Religion forums seem to do that well enough. You want a forum about weird stuff? Might as well stick it in the General forum.

This forum here is a waste of space. And I for one won't care if my post count dips a little bit if this forum is gone.

Yeah, its lost its newness and uniqueness lately. Things that normally would have been posted in here are being posted in the General forum instead and it lost its "we're the only ones who can be in here" thing thing long ago...

*shrugs and walks away*

Agreed, there is no point to this forum. Joeiss' Dirty Dance is proof that it went downhill.

I like it because it makes me feel exclusive and better than the common peons.

Kitana85 · 09-29-2003, 07:06 PM

And it used ot to just that.. it used to be exclusive... when you had enough dubloons, you could buy your way in. It was really a place for the older members, basically, originally it was all the old NDosers. Then as newbies were here longer, more and more could come in. finally so many people could come in that there was no novelty of being one of a select few.

Maybe a new exclusive forum? Like a P forum. So if your a P1 and above, you get access to the excslusive forum. The only problem is, there would be almost nothing that would make it more wanting/demanding to be in then other forums.

But I've always liked the Black Project since I first joined. I remember when I finally met all the requirements to join the Black Project, I was pretty excited. But its true, the novelty factor isn't there as much anymore.

I say we just ditch this exclusive forum thing. Usergroups are good enough.

GameMaster · 09-29-2003, 07:57 PM

I vote to keep it, I like the idea of having a place to go where you'll only encounter older members.

To ante some excitement and exclusiveness, we could slightly alter the qualifications and make it only available to people who joined on or before April 2001.

But then some of you guys would have to be removed from this group so maybe we could make it a club for people who joined in 2001.

Well, I originally registered in April 2001 as "Samus". I also registered before that when GT first opened as "Vegeta" in Jan 2001 (back when I was a DBZ Freak...), and I even registered at NDose about a month before it shut down, I believe the name there was Gyorg or something o.O

But anyway, back to the point, even if this forum stays, the older members won't have anything to post. Like what could we talk about? Maybe we should just make it a usergroup, so when people look at our profile they will see that it's there.

Well then, let's give this forum one last hurrah. Here's a return back to the good old days when the Black Project Forum was about stuff that was weird, disgusting and quite possibly painful.

Not for the kids!

Jonbo298 · 09-30-2003, 01:57 PM

I heard about that on Leno. Crazy, but the voices had a meaning

GameMaster · 09-30-2003, 05:49 PM

That link was a very disappointing attempt at resurrecting this forum. We've shared stories like that in the general forum. I'll wait until you can come up with something more innappropiate.
