Okay, here's what I'm thinking. I've been looking into making an ezboard for my own site, to have a place for our "fun" without choking this board with it. It'd also have a TMNT section, and one for discussing fanworks, and maybe an RP down the line. I'm not trying to compete with the Technodrome here, but we've kinda been taking over this board. We wouldn't leave this board, we'd still talk turtles here, but...

Uh, so, what do ya think?

Ah, I am humbled that you seek this little blue turtle's opinion Actually, I think that's a great idea. We could use your board to post our random silliness rather than clogging up the Technodrome's forums. You can count on me being a frequent poster if your message board does come up, Kali. Well, that's my two cents worth

Thanks for the support. Yes, I feel kinda bad about selfishly using Krang and Shredder's board for our own silliness. I'll try and set up my board tomorrow and Wednesday. I have a lot of time on the computer on Thursdays so I might have it up by then. It won't be as nice as this board, though.

Coolamundo, dudette! It's okay if the board won't be as nice as the Technodrome's. As long as we have each other, right?
*quickly protects himself from any bappage for sounding too sappy*
And it's not like we're never gonna post at the Technodrome any more. This is like a second home; it's too much fun to pass up posting here.

Yep, we'll still post here, but our insanity and randomness will be moved, allowing more relevant Turtle talk to prevail.

Ya, 'tis a good idea! We tend to get off topic with our wackiness. If you get the board set up, then we'll all have a place to purge our insanity, leaving the Technodrome in peace. Three cheers for Kali!
Hurray!
Hurray!
Hurr...Where was I again?
Oh ya, of course.
Hurray!

...And here's one against. The way you people are talking, it sounds like the ezboard will be a replacement for these forums. What did we do wrong that would make everyone want to leave to a place filled with popup ads? Honestly, I don't mind it when people post nonsense or silly topics here. That's why we made the General Discussion forum! I guess I can't stop you all from leaving, but at least I tried...

BTW, Kali, if you want a place for people to post feedback about your site, I can set up a subforum for you like the one NTN has.

Hrm... breaking away from here has it's pros and cons. But then, that's why there's DALnet, AIM, MSN chat, Yahoo chat for goofin' around chitchat.

Or... see if Krang could set up a section here reserved ONLY for socializing. The only thing I hate is having to bounce around three different sections just to follow all the idle-chit chat threads. Then later coming back and trying to remember which thread it was I posted some off topic conversation in.

In short, just make one section for wild-card discussion, and keep all that in that section (like how we keep the RPG's in its section). Then the other TMNT topics can be left pure/on topic. Sound cool?

Hey, thanks, Krang! We just thought you'd get angry at us sooner or later for constantly getting off topic (though we try to stay on it! Honest!) or for posting silly, random things. You've done nothing wrong. We weren't going to leave for good, we were just going to post our random insanity on another board. I'm actually honored that you'd want us to keep posting our strangeness at the Technodrome!
I like HorseTechie's idea. I get lost too, trying to remember where a conversation took place. Even better, we should restrict our insanity to the general discussion forum. I'm willing to do any of the above three options. Okay, so what does everyone else think?? What should we do??

Yeah, HT, that does sound like a good idea.

I was never trying to replace the Technodrome forums, I'd never be able to! There was a time awhile ago when I said that whenever a thread was going off topic, a new thread should be made. Isn't that the reason General Discussion was made? *sigh* I remember when this place had two boards, that was it.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see...."go with the flow" as they say

Sound cool? I don't have a problem at all with off-topic and silly posts, but they should be kept in GD, since anything is on-topic here. What we really need is topic splitting so that moderators can split topics at the point that they get off-topic, but that won't be available until I upgrade to phpBB2 (when it's released). Until then, I'll try to move some of the off-topic posts here.
