That's what I've been thinking. It would benefit the boards and would give it more activity even as it is now, with most of Midways latest games already released and the others not for a while...


Precisely. The only thing that is coming out that we could talk about here would be the wii version of armageddon. And even then its really a six month old game.

Community Builders would be what these boards need, it feels too strict around here and needs to be a bit loose, but this idea is too much fun for midway to pass, dont you think frustrated

RTLM~

Interesting idea, but I think the general board would die if that were implemented.

While it's nice to have that warm & fuzzy "I feel loved" feeling on the internet I really don't think it's necessary.

All the communities I've been a part of I simply joined and jumped into the first topic that piqued my interest. As you become a regular contributer people will eventually remember who you are and seek out your opinion. That's how online communities have always worked in my eyes. There's no need for formal introductions on something as informal and generally fleeting as an online community.



Thats true for me also. Even at forums with introduction threads and stuff I usually don't make an introduction.

Same here, but it could be cool anyway.

No. Midway would not allow it. They don't like any form of social gathering on amessage board...


Exactly.

Midway is Anti-Social except for when its about them or their games.

That's just my personal opinion though. And in no way does it reflect the opinion of Midway or the forum staff. wink You never know, they could add the section if it's felt it will benefit the boards. Either by encouraging new users to participate or prolonging the stay of current ones.


Thats whatI usually do

Actually, the more I think about it, the more I think that a board like that should be a possibility. All the welcome threads have to go somewhere you know. That way the Mods wont have to be bothered by deleting them over and over.

It might be nice if it keeps it's purpose, to actually get to know eachother. Though something tells me it would mostly be filled with some random crap.
