Can I just ask what the hell is the point? If we aren't posting here
then we aren't going to post there.

It would be kind of like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. OR, if
you don't like that analogy, then it would be like turning on the
no-smoking sign on the Hindenburg.

Seriously, what kind of suggestion is it that moving the board would
somehow get people posting?

I've actually been thinking about trying to pick up matters again here
because I'm just as guilty of neglect as you, John, or anyone else. But
if we're going to put effort into the group let's do it with posting,
rather than trying to move things just because a member or two likes the
format better. Because all it is is a form of shallow forum vanity.

Now, that said, if someone wants to archive EVERY post from the
beginning, move it over to an EZ Board in a timely manner BEFORE the
board goes live, then I'll consider changing my stance on the matter. I
am certainly not going to do it.

It's reasonable to think that way Sparf, but moving to a forum would, at least in my opinion, cause people to post more often precisely BECAUSE they wouldn't...

I was a member of Myth once. What bothered me was the ability for characters to be in ten places at once. No chronology, no cohesive narrative. But it looks...

One thing I neglected just now, is that I myself tried to alleviate that exact problem by following the example of a Star Trek rpg I am a part of. In which...

I think having a board is a good idea too. Maybe because it's what i'm used to, but it was easier to keep track of things. And visually more organized. I...
