    Clean up the Forum

    Some old topics are still relevant while 99% of them are just...old.

    Also alot of bad advertising for Wulven on half the threads out there. Might be a wise idea to clean up some of the old stuff. Especially stuff pertaining to the blunders of the first pre-order. I love recruiting people, sending them to the website, then having them come back to me and saying, "No way, I read the forums and this company has issues."

    Company may have issues, but maybe cleaning your undies will prevent you from airing your laundry dirty (or your dirty laundry).

    I think it would be cleaner just to take the threads like "Status updates" archive it in a folder only you (Wulven) can see, then leave a post with whats relevant. Just about every forum topic on the forums has stuff thats just way too old as well.

    Just a recommendation.

    Interesting outlook. But I think its better not to hide that stuff, that stuff did happen and its better to admit that it happened than try to hide it like a secret. The important thing is to come across that they have learned from those mistakes and are trying to become a better company for it. That should earn more points than simply hiding away all the bad stuff.

    However, I do kind of get what you're saying as well. But just to get a better picture, could you provide some examples of where you see this happening specifically? I'm going to guess you're mainly referring to the physical card section.

    I don't understand the logic behind locking most of the threads that get locked. Unless there's unacceptable conflict between players, what's the harm in people continuing to discuss old topics? Especially because new solutions can be found even months after the blunder. I know it doesn't happen much anymore but it's still kind of frustrating to see a conversation stopped short when people may still want to say more.

    After all, that's what a forum's for

    Or THIRD, if Demnchi's already second.

    I'm for retaining most or all of the old threads, and I wish fewer of them were locked....
