I don't see what the issue is here.

Originally by: zacuis to ray
u ask why this is an issue. well for me MD has gone from reading the guardian to reading the sun thats why its an issue for me.
this isnt a matter of snobbery or elitism its just about the quality of disscusion in this forum. im not asking for the MD forum to be moved back to how it was im just asking that they create a new forum subsection.
The Guardian is the worst broadsheet.
And comparing it to The Sun is snobbery.
Compare the forum index to a shelf in the newsagents. You glance past The Sun and that bastion of literary excellence The Independent and reach for The Guardian. Why not the same when reading posts?
Or should we demand the narrow pages be sold in an entirely different section so we don't have to be affronted by their garish headlines and page threes?

Originally by: zacuis fair point well made. but i still miss the old MD
We have a chance to continue it here.
MD didn't just exist, it was created over time by various people coming together and lambasting the nimrods that deigned to post their inane comments in our forum.
Nothing says we cannot just continue that, and also have the opportunity to introduce new blood into the mix.
If we're such a great community then surely we have the spirit and perseverance to see it through a rough patch?

Which is why I read them. They're a newspaper, not a mouthpiece.

Also, some people in here are getting way too worked up about the semantics of a spaceship forum.

Originally by: Kwint Sommer If this is to remain a place of business and meaningful discussion the mods are at least going to have ban alts
I disagree completely. CCP took that decision because CAOD was overrun by trolls and men without balls. But what makes that the correct decision?
EMF1 Hauler1 is an alt, that bank guy is an alt, so are a fair few people here. They all have valid contributions.
But are we not able to govern ourselves with sticky requests (demands), one-time rebuttals and subsequent ignorances?
We have options people.
