🜲 PoLiX Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 Well, recently a discussion came up between me and some forum members, and other members of the community. They asked why I honestly moved SSForum to Forum Central. Most thought that it was to out swift, or something along those lines, not knowing I own neither domain, and am just the person in charge of the upkeep. I don't own neither domain, I own the sites in theory, as the domain owners hold all power to me, but still, it was not for this. Me, Swift, and Bajan had discussed moving almost all our work to SubspaceOnline.com. But many VIPs and other community members disliked the long domain, and complained about and fought against it. So the alternative idea of moving the forums to Forums.SSCentral.com came up. People did like it was more uniform, but many disliked the fact we'd be leaving the seperate domain, and become SSCentral's forums, not Subspace's. That was put to mute as I fixed up ssforum with redirects to zone forums, and other forums here. Well, the discussion has come up again, and has actually made a good point, which is why I now ask the Public Opinion. The Point Madehttp://www.ssforum.net is more uniform as it can be 1 main forum site for the community. Even if zones wish to have their own forums, they could still be added as subdomains under SSForum.net still bringing traffic to the main forum. With Forums.sscentral.com it cannot. SSForum feels more like it is its own en!@#$%^&*y, not a forum system for a, sadly, currently news feed site. A lot of zones, old topics, ss and non-ss sites, and players knew/know/link to ssforum.net, and even though SSForum.net redirects, they may get confused.  Personally, I'm fine with either, and some might wonder wth I'm bringing this up, others might feel it is about time I did, and others probably won't care. But I ask you all as a whole, not just this group, not just the vips, not just the admins, but our entire userbase/community, what do you think? Forum Central (http://forums.sscentral.com) orSubspace Forum Network (http://www.ssforum.net) SSForum.net - September 01, 2002 - Rowen (SSDownloads.Com), PoLiX (SSCentral.Com), and Cyberise (Subspace.Net)
Cancer+ Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 I'm liking ssforum.net. That is what I type in to get to here. That is what I would like it to stay. http://card.mygamercard.net/gelsig/black/cancer2687.png

★ 1587200 Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 To play devil's advocate, sscentral wouldn't be a very central site if it's own forum was on a seperate domain.

★ D1st0rt Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 Regardless of what happens, I'll still call it SSForum.

Gravitron Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 I think it is a moot point.SSForum never been SubSpace's, it has always 'belonged' to swift or polix, as well as any other admin they had jump on the wagon, and their way was enforced throughout.These forums always been sscentral's, I see no point in arguing to move it to a seperate domain or otherwise.To me, it's not a problem eitherway, !@#$%^&*, I used to type off memory a string of something like http://www.ds98.com/subspacehq/wwwboard/messages.cgi or whatever it was every morning, my fingers have a very good pattern-memory. The only 'SubSpace' forums were VIE's followed by warstrike/nmebase/ds98/sshq and SubSpace.net's, then warzone's (mostly premier league forums outside of the fold with their own cult).

★ Maverick Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 This forum will always be ssforum for me since it's so easy to "say" (aka type) instead of the confusion about the name of the current forum. (is it SSCentral's forums, FC, SCFN ... ?)As said earlier, I also like to go to ssforum.net instead of going to forums.sscentral.com but I don't type the address anymore anyway (bookmarks). I guess it's more about telling people about these forums - I rather say they visit ssforum.net instead of forums.sscentral.com . The point you made, polix, is exactly the reasoning I would imagine for the rest.

Dr Brain Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 It's SSForum. It always has been. Freedom is the right to be wrong.
larrythehamster Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 Yah, it always has and always will be SSForum to me I use that domain when coming here, and whenever I talk about it, it's always been ssforum. Forum Central sounds like a train station... larrythehamster [ste]SSCU 17th Parallel Sysop http://i41.tinypic.com/2pq3ymg.jpg
