So the general consensus is that we SHOULD move away from this forum. I don't need to list reasons, we all know them.

It seems like some people would like to try our own subreddit, while others would like a new forum. Below I'll list some details for both.

subreddit:
-Everything will be under it. That means you'll be posting your new montage in the same place general discussion is happening. This my be a bit limiting, but it also allows for an easy way to see popular topics quickly
-Theres not as many features in reddit, but theres also not as many that are needed. Its quit the simple platform.
-Because reddit is mainly used as a place to post links, articles, or text posts; we won't be able to create polls or post images as responses as easily. They would have to be links to a strawpoll or to the images themselves.

new forum:
-Everyone is familiar with how the forums work. We would use zetaboards which is the same as this.
-The new forums would be set up, for the most part, like the old hpt forums - before sod sold the league and things started to turn to shit.
-Since its a forum, they're be sub forums, keeping things a bit more organized. This will also allow a section for tournaments and matches - something that would be quite hard on reddit.


After thinking it over, I'd say we should just create a new forum. while reddit is convenient in some cases, it would get too hectic when there are all different types of topics on one page. Also, people love to make polls and post images here. a forum would just better suit us.

You do realize the reason this thread was made was because you own these forums.


No one wants you to own these forums and certainly no one would move to another forum operated by you. Get over yourself.

blade you can post screenshots of you beating people like louie in 1v1s as much as you want (seriosly with your sound, set up, and stopwatch you shouldnt lose a 1v1) but it doesnt change the fact that he is 20x the player you are.

give it a shot and see how it goes. you guys can always come back here cuz the forums arnt going anywhere. it's too much money for sam or anyone of us to just close it down...

The forum has been dying because no one plays this game anymore. Changing forums isn't going to change that.

well, changing forum could definitely quicken the death of the community

i bet it'd be easier to drop any new forum / subreddit than it would be this forum- even with sam running it. not to mention some members would maybe be lost in the transition. i don't know.. *shrug

there is nothing wrong with this forum. I was just tired of Sam constantly blaming our team for the league not working a couple months ago when all he does is bitch and whine like a 5 year old.

i don't think anyone here has a problem with this forum either, seeing that almost all of the threads Sam makes, nobody bothers posting/reading because we're accustomed to just ignoring anything he says anyway.

stay on this forum until 1) halo mcc comes out or 2) sam decides to act like a child again and closes the forum down (then we can move to a new forum/reddit)

until then everyone just chill

if we're on the same team why do you keep blaming me for your failures?

do you not see that i haven't talked shit to you ever (aside from some trolling) until you started blaming us in every single one of your posts?

apologize you bitch and accept responsibility.

i honestly thought 2 months ago that your team failed to help enforce rules, which was always so lacking in all the immaturity of the past. i tried for a lot of years to have some structure and results for the community and no one really wanted that. I'm cool with it though.

There just is not enough communication between all of us, like how you said 2 months ago, there weren't enough players for matches on those 4 teams we tried to start. SHould have been 2 teams then. It was just another fail and yes i do feel bad about it. .

I know people here are very talented gamers, the best. The people on Planetside 2 are mostly good too. Anyway, i hope more people here can get together for wins now and later and that's all.
