You guys have done well with the light moderation touch and stickies. I think what would be fun is for there to be a game night once every month where everyone goonrushes a F2P game (could be like TF2, might be some awful F2P mmo, whatever). Lumbering Troll's server has a stupid huge population cap. I haven't really thought that out, but that would be cool if some goon would try to organize that Robo Reagan posted:Can we do a game of the month thing where goons play some awful free multiplayer/indie game? I feel it would bring us ~closer as a community~ but mostly I'm bored and dicking around in awful games with people is fun oh...I didn't even see this post, I'm dumb eonwe fucked around with this message at 17:19 on Dec 8, 2014 |

Its too bad too, because a lot of goons jizz all over themselves to make fun of j4gs. A lot of goons act like they are better than pubbies, when really, goons are pubbies who paid $10 to post on a message board. I kind of wish the 'j4g' thing would go by the wayside. The only game where it has ever probably been a real concern is EVE, but literally every other game it doesn't even matter. A lot of goons don't seem to even realize that the rules have been relaxed and they can 'JUST POST' a lot more than a couple years ago. vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

Contest Winner posted:This is a good and fun idea, but would a regular game of the month thread get any interest? Like it could be in December you need to play/replay Doom 2 and talk about how much you love/hate Doom 2 for example. I would be all about this poo poo

# ¿ Dec 8, 2014 21:12 |
So, now that we are pretty clear that this would be cool. What game/games do you guys think would be good for a game of the month? Obviously Doom 2 already got thrown out there, but any other ideas?

# ¿ Dec 8, 2014 23:11 |
I think some good games of the month would be KotoR, Vice City, Duke Nukem 3D, Return to Castle Wolfenstine, and The Longest Journey would all be good game of the month candidates. They are cheap and run on a toaster.

Kewpuh posted:i guess my problem or irritation maybe is that it took a thread like this to get people talking about doing something like that which leads me to think that people still are for some reason afraid to post threads and i hate that Honestly until Imp Zone came into the Archeage thread I didn't know that the rules had relaxed. I have a feeling a lot of people are in that same situation. I've been on Mumble with people and they see posts without punctuation even and they seem to think those people are at risk of being probated. But yes, what Widestancer said as well. It'll just take goons telling the negative goons to stop being dicks probably before people loosen up on making threads.

By the way Town of Salem is pretty fun for a browser game. Highly recommended. Oh! What about dungeon crawl stone soup? Browser based, tough, has a tutorial, doesn't require you to constantly look at a wiki.

Stelas posted:I mean, I wouldn't set it in stone as a rule or anything but I definitely think that Crawl's a bad choice because it already has a thread full of people that will happily do challenge runs already. Plus, any interesting moments or stories that come out of it might not be very accessible compared to gifs of dumb moments in Bad Action Game #237. Alrighty whatevs, no big deal

The rest did not. Yep, this is true. I do post in imp zone now but before I had ever mad a single post there I was being accused of being an imp zone troll. Its a message board dudes I don't care that much and I doubt most people do. I like to post about games, read about games, and play games.

Im not crazy about mega threads because it usually ends up monopolizing and stifling discussion about games. I don't think having them is bad, but they should be a 'main' thread with other relevant threads imo

Zombie Samurai posted:I gotta admit, I adore the Archeage, Wildstar, and Starbound threads, and I don't even play any of those games. They're such beautiful trainwrecks. I want to agree, but if the people in those threads ever posted real poo poo instead of egging on the people they accused of trolling it would be a lot better contentwise. Its just they don't want to post anything real. They'd rather have a dead thread or complain about someone else's posts rather than contribute. That's my feelings anyway.

The thing is, I get the complaints. I was super thin skinned. I just wanted to talk about Archeage, and I was getting annoyed at first too. But then I realised I was being way too sensitive. Its a message board, and joking is allowed. Goons take posting way too seriously
