Different Forums and how they continue

As most of you know I never used forums a lot. I got my ESL Forums, where I look at for administration reasons, that's it. Sometimes I took a look at ET-Generation forums, which is a lot bigger, community based. (there is not a lot activity in ESL public boards :P) And yes I took a look at tm-forums.com, also a bit at tmx forums. Well there are those maniazones forums as well..... and and and

As you can see I maybe do not even know all. You already said that tm-forums.com will stay (for history reasons mainly I hope). Hopefully all tm-forum.com users will switch to this one at some point in time.

But what about maniazones forum? What about all the others. It's confusing me and I would love to have this one forum for all to look at. I am also thinking about new competition release and advertisements, which is of course easier in one forum more than at 100 of them.

the maniazones are part with the tmuf. as long as the tmuf is played there will be the maniazones i guess. don't forget that all posts in the maniazone appear in the game as well( at least the country topics and posts)

I can see that you aren't watching the forums :P

BTW one main forum with all other in it (maniazones, tm-forum) would be great^^

I don't want to flame, but I hope the german DeepSilver forum will be shut down sooner or later and people switch over here. Also, this forum hopefully has the potential to be the main maniaplanet forum, because the Ubisoft forum is quite ugly ^^

maniazones and other places should stay as they are and live as long as Forever does I suppose.

For maniaplanet, there is this place for the moment. We are designing something we call Agora here in the perspective to make some sort of maniazones forum but in a special way. It would be less efficient than the forums before but maybe more powerful on the long run.

be carefull about the maniazone ok!!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :P

well i always likes the maniazone and i became a moderator in it for this reason. easily accesible from the game makes it the best place for new player to ask about the game and make then love it a bit more. i find the tm-forum a bit to sofisticated :P ( if that's the word :P:P)

well the forums @ tm-forum are quite good but still people need to type in there own language which kind of frustates some times to read it.

Also if you add al the forums to one place you will have that people might post in other maniazones forum.

Also the fact that you have people that don't want to understand or can't ask correct answers for me is a big failure.

Maniazones was a good idea but the execution a bit simple, I wonder what you've come up with...

Willa: there will always be idiots on general forums, you can't really do quality filtering if it's meant for anyone with the game. I doubt even Agora could avoid this :D
