Man, I haven't had this much fun on a forum in years...

Yeah, today is all about the grab ass and jokes but when I have actually had some sleep it'll be time to get busy.

I didn't know how you felt about recruiting or even who is already here. Say the word...

I've got a half dozen posts of my own I've been sitting on because posting them would be a waste of time at BGG.

Tell us how you want to build this beast and we'll do it.

The more the merrier, as far as I'm concerned.

For this too. No assurances people will play nice (or at all), but I'm all for more to discuss.

Understand man, I'm not here for a brawl or starting s***. This is a game forum. I'm talking about asking about games, rules, recycling...lots of things. Not what has gone on over at the other place. That's for the birds. That is noise winning over the signal. I want to bring new people and have them talk to gamers of all types instead of being a bunch of misogynistic old c**** who want their world to be the only world and allow for no other. As I said the fresh air of freedom.

And I, as others have as well, thanked you for this haven but understand...we mean it...you've done a man's job here and it is appreciated.

[Calandale]

All I did was start a forum.
It's up to anyone else to use it.

I'm just a **** stirring bird.

I agree with you in principle, but just keep in mind that the way you expressed this is completely illogical and filled with contradictions. You're all for "the fresh air of freedom," only after you complained about how other people do things. And in a single sentence you trashed the wants of others ("their world to be the only world") with a want of your own (by establishing what should be talked about: "have them talk to gamers of all types instead of being a bunch of misogynistic old c****").

I'm just sayin'.

[Calandale]

And I hope there IS contention. I don't like everyone being nice.
Whether it's forced or just naturally out of community spirit.

Duly noted. I would just add that if you have seen our founder's video on this and how many people are posting here in a similar fashion that we wouldn't be here if we were happy with the way things are over there. I have suffered suspensions for the mention of something political while I have watched a fire fight go on for 6 pages over politics and no locked thread and no suspensions. The double standard is BS and I'm tired of it.

Modern gaming was built by wargamers. Braunstein (Thank you David Wesely), D&D, Computer games...all from progressive forward looking people. Yes, there were stick in the muds. There always will be. But I have cautioned people away from over there because of the general attitude that there is only one world, their world and you either join them or suffer the consequences. Just stating what I have observed over the years. YMMV.

Greetings familiar names & pictures.
Has it got juicy round here yet?

Is Twilight Struggle a wargame?

Nah. It's a fuckin' lovefest.

Sausage lovefest to boot.

I can't find the Weuro forum.

[Calandale]

They would be in the military subject - along with wargames and probably chess.

[KevinR]

I can't find the Weuro forum.

Isn't this the Euro forum?

[moujamou]

I'm not sure which of us are being serious.

Good job on setting this thing up, anyway.

[Calandale]

Dunno 'bout you, but I am.

If we need wargame subforum to the military section, that would be fine.
Or if we need a weuro one. It's a different way of categorizing - not
worrying about the hobbies, but only the subject matter. Keeps things
easier.

People would REALLY hate it if I went with my gut, and set it up only by time period.
