I stumbled across this online while interacting with the public and it asks the question: Is anything actually happening on these forums?
My studies have indicated a lot of people are happy that there is a lot of activity on these boards indicating a general "good-health" feel to the EVE-O-OOPE forums.
The expectation that a lot is already happening is higher than the expected boredom and generally people are prepared to wave the flag and participate.
It would appear that at the fringe of the expected activity there is a blemish, but it is easily overlooked. Alongside the infrequent typo.
What are your thoughts?
Is this forum healthy? YES/NO
Vote Yes on Thought 132. |

I see your point.
Without trying to put a smile out by saying I think a solution would be to nerf low-sec, general discussion is generally about the status quo, although it would have been interesting to find out which transactions had occured in null-sec via GD. Like a running column of system changes taken from Dotlan.
I tend to post in the Fiction forum (not IGS) and even less people want to show up. Most know the same arguments / discussion / topics but refuse to appear in that context, especially for a second time. |

defiler wrote:Yeah, Betteridge's law sums up GD pretty well. Not really at liberty to discuss lowsec due to my stance on keeping OOPE OOPE though. Fiction sounds interesting though... I've seen it but never really seen it. Maybe I can get my forum fix there without having to roleplay or discuss game mechanics...
It does have the same forum-fu and backdated analysis but its definately a general discussion of what could have been or could be in EVE. |

For example, it's been 9 years of threads about reducing hisec income and increasing 0.0 income. No matter how many times CCP follows their demands, a new thread about it is made the next day.
9 years of that ****. yup. this is one of the reasons. not the highsec per s+¬; but the same old same old repetitious threads. I personally despise threads that contain a link to something and the word 'discuss!' directly after it...I wonder whether the multilingual threads have anything like this and how they handle them.
Btw, did you manage to book a seat at Braben's table or were they sold out before you got back there?

Well, that ****-hassery thats referred to.....
Page 11 Synopsis:
General Discussion - 10 days ago.
OOPE - 2 weeks ago.
Fiction - A Year.
Eventually there will be only one forum, and it will be called 'announcement space alpha' in it, the reply button will be replaced with "you do not have privileges" and 16 people will rotate the conversation topics to the nth term, repeating all realistic counter-points individually - defeating themelves.
If the hypothesis with the least assumptions is the most likely, the thread with the least available responses is wrong? |

It was tempting...
Was hoping someone from EVE made it into the Grandfather's lair :P
They'd sold out later that day, if you did get one Congratulations if not would have been the best feather! |
