Celestia Forums

These forums could be even more interesting and fun (irrelevant for the Collective) if we ("Celestians") had a type of "General" Forum for discussing and talking about other things besides Celestia (as long as you don't neglect Celestia . Give yourself a thought about this and cast your vote. It will be all up to Chris then...

Also, if you don't know what to choose or you're just curiois, visit these forums... Those are Forums of the Game Homeworld and contain a General Discussion Forum...

I'd much rather there wasn't a 'general' forum. Too many times have I seen such places devolve into endless flame wars as people suddenly find a lot more things to argue about, disagree with, and misinterpret (especially when it comes to politics).

No not really ( IMO ) the forums work well as they are
and the users forum is a genrel Celstia Forum

Do we really need to talk about our cars and our pets here ?

Some individual created a thread unrelated to Celestia which ended being locked very fast.

There was some trouble with some silly forum spammers a while back
but i think they was dealt with

they came on here just writing rubblish for the sake of it.

I think the forum works well the way it is. For the most part we all get along. Sure there is an occasional heated topic and sometimes we go off topic but for the most part I like the way things are. I feel as long as we keep to Celestia and to ideas and lines of thought that parallel the program and astronomy we will be just fine. Maybe a topic of general astronomy would be ok because it goes right along with what Celestia is all about. That’s my thinking on this issue.

Don.

What hapened to the POLL about the question ?

I just added a new physics and astronomy forum on the board, but I don't foresee adding a general discussion forum. There are plenty of other places on the internet for random chit-chat, and to be frank, I'd rather die in a fire than deal with the drama that inevitably plagues chat boards and their moderators.

Hmm, the poll questions currently show up as being a fair bit less than perfect!

so Im not the only one...

There will be a general discussion on my celestial visions forums when I get those back online...It will of course be a private board save for topics related to Celestia...Basically like it was...

This thread lost it's purpose with post of the individual designated as "Chris".
Efficiency is relevant. There is no efficiency in consuming time over something worthless.
