A couple of suggestions

[feioncastor]

I'm new to eoff and I must say I really love this forum. It's really cool to find others who are as into these games as I am.

However, I couldn't help but notice there is no SaGa board. The SaGa series is almost as big as the Final Fantasy series in number of games. I mean, SaGa Frontier was incredible. Romancing SaGa III, also really good. And Unlimited SaGa was, well, not too terrible.

And also, I think a Super Mario RPG board would make sense since SMRPG is a Squaresoft game.

And finally, maybe exclude FF4 from the old classics board. Maybe like FF1-FF3 (since those three are kinda similar), but FF4 is the first of the really popular ones. And it's an excellent game too.

Anyway, just my thoughts. If you choose to disregard them, that's fine, I'll still come here to post. I'm just sayin.

I'm supposed to be in charge of SMRPG, but, I errr....*runs away*

[eternalshiva]

yeah what ever happened to that Kiro? *stares at you in an uncomfy way*

Heh, we might want to move this thread into feeback as it's related to the forums and not the front site.

But to take a shot at your questions, there isn't a SaGa or SMRPG forum because they don't generate enough traffic to warrant their own forum. A different forum isn't made for every game, forums are made and split the way they are to reduce traffic to any one forum. That's why FFVII and FFVIII are in different forums (as each game gets a lot of traffic) but FFI and FFII are in the same forum (as neither game generates a lot of traffic). Also, there is a General Square-Enix forum to talk about the SaGa series and SMRPG.

As for the FFIV vs. FFI-III, that's been an eternal debate that will probably never be solved. Feedback to move FFIV somewhere else pops up about every other month and lots of discussion ensues but nothing ever gets done.

It's a good idea to move IV, but it would be too much work, and the Cid's Knights are like Lazy Shinra.

[Loony BoB]

Not all of us. =P A few of us have always been gunning for the split, but some certain sentimental oldbies keep denying us. :p

As for SaGa and SMRPG, they don't have enough demand in the General Square Enix forum to warrant a forum of their own, as far as I know.

[Doomgaze]

Which is a shame, because Geno could kick Auron's ass.

[Flying Mullet]

My grandma could kick Auron's ass.

[Agent Proto]

Yeah, besides, Auron's unsent.

Knights can't make/move/split forums. We're lazy because The Man keeps us down. :shifty:

[Flying Mullet]

Is it The Man or The woMan? :shifty:

[Yamaneko]

Shlup is a man. :cool:

He doesn't keep me down, I'm lazy on my own. :D

Yeah!

The SaGa series has never been that popular in the States, and wouldn't warrant enough posts to make it worth looking at. Heck, some of the mainstream forums don't even get that many posts.

[eestlinc]

never put 4 and 5 together!!!!!!

[m4tt]

never put 4 and 5 together!!!!!!
Yeah!

SaGa and Mario RPG would not be able to sustain their own board. We barely get any topics on each as it is.

Splitting IV out might be wise, especially with the rerererelease of I & II and I think eventually III. IV and I get about 90% of the threads in I-IV, around 45% each, so splitting those apart would have some active enough forums. This weekend I shall do an analysis of the activity in each of the oldschool forums and post the results here, and then they can be prompty ignored by anyone who has the power to change it. Remind me if I forget.

While we are on the topic of improving this board, we really need to keep the FF7 forums under control. The advent children one, expecialy. There's just too many newbies signing up and posting pointless stuff and having PM conversations in the threads.

Do you remember the time when there was a bit more style in the posts?

kishi's usually good about keeping AC in check, but he might be on one of his <s>upgrades</s> vacations.

Did any of you ever post at vgchat.com? I used to post there religiously, about 20 times a day. But eventually, the posts lost all style whatsoever, and as last week, vgchat.com is no more. Kinda sad, but they wouldn't make a Square-Enix board, so this place is way better. I mean, it was Video Game Chat.com, and there was no forum for Final Fantasy stuff. Can you believe that? Hehehe, oh well.

[Psychotic]

Dude! That's because you and Raptor hacked it!!!! STOP HACKING THE SITE!!!!!!!I think the additional exclamation marks will really make him think twice about doing THAT again. Excellent work, Real One <s>Player</s> Bjarni.

...oh god I'm making jokes about media players...oh god oh god oh god. *feels unclean*

[FightClubFan#47]

I might be wrong, but I always thought that we didn't have SaGa here, because, I don't know, we're EYESONFF. SMRPG maybe.... But it's pushing it. :p

p.s. Why is :p cl_out?
