If uBB could do this (which I'm relatively sure it can't), it would be a good idea to have this forum just link to the "real" Subterra forum. -------------------- ~Note : The professional newbie's advice should not be taken seriously, or at all.~ LINKAGE Posts: 364 | Registered: Saturday, January 17 2004 08:00 |

The link to the other forum could be put up on top with the other links. That way people have easy access to the other forum and this forum can survive. Dikiyoba. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

:D ;) :P :cool: :rolleyes: :mad: :eek: :confused: That felt good. Now I just need to never look at this topic again. At least I got my urge to add emoticons out of the way for 2006. Thanks SubTerra! You are a useful forum. *this message sponsored by the kevorkian institute* -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

I kind of like this thread. It's nice and cozy. This should be a pinned thread in one of the forums where we can all just mingle for the sake of mingling. ;) -------------------- I'm an avid gamer and proud of it! Posts: 9 | Registered: Sunday, January 15 2006 08:00 |

The number of members that actually post in a forum does not prove anything. A forum can have only 5 members that actually post, and still be a useful forum to keep. Take the Announcements forum, for example... [ Tuesday, January 24, 2006 15:05: Message edited by: The Stew Boy ] Posts: 587 | Registered: Tuesday, April 1 2003 08:00 |

quote:The announcements forum holds information about the rules, and very practical information about the forum, nothing more. This information is vital for all the users. Besides that, it only has about 6 or 7 topics, so it wouldn't make a difference deleting it. That's why they keep it as well, but more because it has important information for all the users, unlike this forum, which only has information about Subterra. So it's only important for SubTerra players. Deleting this forum won't change much. Deleting the Announcement forum would make the entire forum, or at least the newbies, go nuts. -------------------- There are 400 words in the dictionary that begin with "self" and only 8 that begin with "fellow".

Why delete anything, when you can secretely take it over and use it for subliminal messages with inscrutable purposes? You just need a small quorum of posters to maintain a trickle of traffic as cover. In other words, SubTerra is such an amazing game that deleting this forum would be ridiculous. It has turned out that I am subtly implying many other important points on the topic "anything else having to do with SubTerra". -------------------- We're not doing cool. We're doing pretty.

Well I played SubTerra for the first time not too long ago, and I did so because I finally wondered what was going on in this forum and what it was about. Therefore, it would be useful to keep it so that new members could take a look at the game. Other than that, it is really useless.

Well, yes, except that anyone who actually wants to talk about SubTerra would best be served going here. I mean, honestly, I feel as though everyone's interests would best be served if Spiderweb took down everything about SubTerra and just put up a link to Radiant's site.

In case anyone is interested, I had a strange dream last night. In it I was viewing the SubTerra forum. In one of the topics, there was a post that said that Radiant was a member of nine forums, that he was the author of Lost Souls and Galactic Core, and many other like games. Could this be the secret identity of RW? Posts: 587 | Registered: Tuesday, April 1 2003 08:00 |

Best delete this forum before these undulating waves of the inane rearrange your deranged brain. This place exists in inverted space. One more post and I bet it's replaced. Will's already written. It's been snake bitten. Unleash the beast with that poisoned key stroke. No joke. SubTerra. Terra what? Terra's shut. RW's cult poly-zipper, flow-ripper.
