Did this really have to move?
What is with the topic strictness lately.
It was in the Green Dragon which is an open topic forum and it was moved to another open topic forum.

Because this is the real open topic forum, and nobody except you green dragoner's look in that green dragon (hell, i don't even know Where on revora that is).


But rad, you are right, the green dragon forum should be removed because of its redundancy.

It gets a bit annoying when there is a discussion in Green Dragon (which has grown pretty quiet lately) and as soon as it gets started it gets moved.

I agree. This topic had no business being moved. For one thing, there are about six very similar discussions already in the Open Topic and Deep Thought forums, and for another, the Green Dragon is an open topic forum. That homeschooling debate, fine, that needed to be moved because it was turning seriously epic and getting kinda deep, but this? Unnecessary.

I agree with Elvenlord. Quit trying to fix a problem that isn't there, people who keep moving things. That is what will bring about the apocalypse.

Is that a... hidden metaphor for people who try to prevent the climate from changing? Fixing a problem that isn't there? :p
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

Get lost, jerk. About 70% of Revora's active population comes from T3A.

It has always struck me as a bit 'wtf' that we don't permit other divisions their own general discussion board, then. Put one in the CNC guild or something.

They can have one if they want one. When somebody from CnC Guild asks for an Open Topic forum of their own, I'm sure the CnC admins can fix it up.

@Allathar: Now that I think about it, yes it is. Although the climate really is changing. More a metaphor for manmade climate change. Now there's a real myth. What really saddens me about the whole affair, though, is that it is now nothing more than a political tool. No career politician will stand up and tell the world that massive, drastic changes are necessary or we'll all die, because if they do we'll vote them out because it'll be expensive. Useless, shallow electorate...

Thats just stupid. Revora is one forum, the middle ground (and central hub) between all the different divisions. One thing everyone wants is an open topic section, therefore it makes perfect sense to have one giant place to post random topics instead of keeping all the users divided and making Revora overall less active than it already is. Each division might as well depart and make their own forums on their own servers if they each want separate topic sections which the "hub" already has. Revora is about unity, not division.

Then why do we call these sections divisions? Revora is not about unity at all, it's just a portal for different franchises with different people behind them.

Yes but the point is all those "different" people want an open topic-like section, it only makes sense to stick that in the middle so everyone can use it. Otherwise Revora is one big waste of space.

See, us T3A'ers are rather tight-knit, and occasionally like to talk about things among ourselves. Especially about lotr-related stuff.

That might seem logical, but you don't know how it works around T3A. When you move a topic from the Green Dragon into here, the people who don't frequent the ''central'' Revora will never see it again and it will die off.

Clearly, but removing it won't bring them over here. It will just cause them to start their topics in the hosted mods forums of their choice. Just let them be, don't interfere.

You could just have the green dragon forum under the open topic section, with a link in the T3A section that redirects to the open topic section.

Or you could just leave them be. Why do you insist on changing this?
