Brother Aiwass Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Yesterday a frater suggested that would be time to open up sub-forum for the CSM legions, since now in Traitor Legions we finally have rules for each one of them, like the loyalists have. I'd like to support that idea and bring it to the table for your consideration. Cheers!

IronDrake28 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 This came up when Traitor Legions first got released. The decision was that there wasn't enough interest in each Legion individually to require their own sub-forums iirc.

Excessus Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Yeah, in an ideal world it would be awesome. But even with Traitor Legions out the interest varies a lot between the legions. We decided that the community threads for each legion would be the best way to handle it...for now. Me and IP are keeping an eye on the situation though so we'll see in the future.

Zhiv Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Yeah, in an ideal world it would be awesome. But even with Traitor Legions out the interest varies a lot between the legions. We decided that the community threads for each legion would be the best way to handle it...for now. Me and IP are keeping an eye on the situation though so we'll see in the future. Could these threads be either pinned or alternatively could there be a pinned 'Your Legion discussion here' post pinned with links to all of those threads. Because currently some of them are 3-4 pages down and posting in them feels like threadomancy. This would also make them more evident to the newcomers such as I.

You'll find them in post #2 in the resources pinned topic, which we in other areas still need to update properly but it's mostly fine. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295381-chaos-space-marine-resources/?p=3781209 Having them all individually pinned would take up a lot of the page and decrease the "impact" of important pinned posts when they appear.

Dosjetka Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 It's only thread-o-mancy if the last post in the thread before yours is more than 90 days old, as per forum rules. :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331559-new-csm-sub-forums/#findComment-4671413 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Alternatively, you could tag your posts, as we did in the days of yore. e.g. Post topic: [Night Lords][Fluff Question] Why did Acerbus Krieg become a DP? Though I've personally found that tagging is a love/hate thing. :p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331559-new-csm-sub-forums/#findComment-4671460 Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if it doesn't provide content/add to the discussion in a meaningful way. Or you're the OP. :wink: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331559-new-csm-sub-forums/#findComment-4671912 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldrick Shadowblade Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I'd like seperate WIP threads for loyalist and CSM! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331559-new-csm-sub-forums/#findComment-4673037 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian_F_H Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Well, tagging is also nonexistent for mobil users, so that isn't a solution for everybody. I honestly avoid the CSM section a lot of the time because of the lack of seperate traitor legion sections...

Excessus Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 I have unpinned the resources post and made a new one that's a bit clearer to see the links to the community posts. Hope that helps a bit. Canadian_F_H, the problem with splitting things up is that many will become desolate wastelands while others thrive. Better to keep it all in one place...for now...

Canadian_F_H Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Mods discretion. I was just making the point that a lack of traffic isn't justification for not subbing. It might be because of not subbing... It's like city infrastructure. Locals avoid small roads that jam up, lack of traffic on those roads doesn't mean that they shouldn't be upgraded, and that upgrading them might see an increase in traffic to them.

MaliGn Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Yeah, the merger from being split into five (four gods and undivided) was what rescued the chaos area of the boards and led to three ETL wins in the bounce so I vote keep it as is.

No need, Chaos wont win this year as I'm joining the Rout :lol: But look on the bright side, I dont have 15k of Wolves to vow like I did with Chaos last year.
