DZComposer Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 THIS IS JUST AN IDEA, I AM NOT YET FIRMLY COMMITTED TO ITI've been giving some thought, especially due to some recent events, about what I want for SFO.I'm not happy with they way things are at the moment. We have had a lot of drama recently that does not have an easy solution. Compromise, it seems, has failed.I think, thusly, that I have found a niche for ClassicStarFox.The idea I have is thus:1. Create a new SMF community for classicstarfox.2. Return SFO to the ruleset from about a year ago.3. Close the mature board.4. Set up classicstarfox as a mature-oriented community. There would be fewer rules there. It would have a politics/philosphy/religion board, and possibly some adults-only sections. Not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Why not implementing the same things here?, just make the boards bigger as well as the mature board. This would kinda divide us all, and I really don't want that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox1235 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 The only thing is what if Krystal fans what to have a mature board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are not referring to yiff or anything in that reward. We already have a mature board here, and it will grow slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox1235 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 No I mean if he gets rid of the mature board here and makes a more mature board for CSF which is more meant for more hardcore fans, Alot of Krystal fans would feel out of place there. But some Krystal fans may want a mature board to stay here so they don't want to join a new forum for it.(And no I don't want a yiff board).

Steve Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Like I said, we HAVE a mature board, tho it's only visible for 18+ year old members. We are tied with pg-13 rules here. The mature thing is not about "hardcore" things, it's about discussions that can't take place on our pg-13 board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkyway64 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Krystal in no way has need to be involved in a mature board here. The only involvement she could have IS yiff and for all you fanboys to drool. Not happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DRL Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 While not approved, I can not say I like this idea.After all, creating a site solely for CSF will bedivisive. Or so I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZComposer Posted June 18, 2010 Author Share Posted June 18, 2010 So, you guys think it would be divisive? Hmm...Do you have any suggestions for alternative ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Made the classic board, make it FULLY starfox retro. Keep the ideas you have, but don't change anything here. Keep the mature board. Keep the rules we made, and implement the other forum. Plus whatever other people suggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DRL Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Well, CSF has already an affiliate sub-boardhere, thus I think we can discuss related stuffon it.Expanding the current board(s) will notbe divisie at all. Maybe slightly harder tomoderate I think, but that is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Monroe Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I can't give mythoughts until I know what the rules were like a year ago. Anyone give me the quick rundown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"User" Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I wouldn't mind seeing a board(s) for politics, religion, or other controversial issues.Why not implementing the same things here?, just make the boards bigger as well as the mature board. This would kinda divide us all, and I really don't want that.I agree with Steve's logic here that the community shouldn't be divided over two different sites.The only thing is what if Krystal fans what to have a mature board.No I mean if he gets rid of the mature board here and makes a more mature board for CSF which is more meant for more hardcore fans, Not alot of Krystal fans would feel out of place there. But some Krystal fans may want a mature board to stay here so they don't want to join a new forum for it.(And no I don't want a yiff board).There already is a mature board/site....it's called the Krystal Lovers Association (see link in my signature) SFO really doesn't need to have any sort of adult image section on the site, it would easily divide the community even if it's only accessible for people 18+ and is otherwise hidden from view because just the fact that SFO would have one ALONE would be enough to "taint" the otherwise PG-13 atmosphere. One of the things I admire about SFO is that it's a breath of fresh air compared to a lot of other furry sites out there.Krystal in no way has need to be involved in a mature board here. The only involvement she could have IS yiff and for all you fanboys to drool. Not happening."All you fanboys"? Surely I hope you'll not referring to me or other SFO posters! Other then that I agree with you. They can find their erotic material on other sites.I can't give mythoughts until I know what the rules were like a year ago. Anyone give me the quick rundown?I third this. I'd like to know as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"User" Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I guess I could have worked my previous post a little differently. Moving on though how about this idea: More regular (not full) mods for SFO. I see Julius got promoted to an RP mod and while that was long over due with the well over 9000 (actual quantity is much higher than that) posts this board is getting every month it wouldn't hurt to add a couple of more into certain areas of the board or even charge them with specific things to look out for (like making sure all art is appropriate according to the rules). This would take some of the pressure off the full mods/admins so they can focus on broader and more important issues and not get bogged down with the little more minor tidbits of drama that pop up every now and then. From what I understand now most of the staff as it is right now (if not everyone) has been stressed with the current drama and the like that has been occurring recently. Some of this stress I'm sure is due to the board being short staffed currently with some staff on vacation but if something like this happens again where more than one staff member is preoccupied with other more important RL matters there would be other staff to fill the void. I'm sure the last thing the current staff wants when they are busy with other tasks is to be constantly bugged about SFO matters even after they post they will be away or busy for a specified period of time.What do you think?
