Text Forum Organisation and Cleaning Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page

Since I dont have Moderator status in these forums, ill just post threads that I think need to be removed or cleaned here. cleaning and removing threads will make the forum more manageable and information more accessible. outdated threads make it look like there is no progress and often confuse new members. everything needs to be easy to find and reference, especially for the newer members of the team (such as myself).

organized by forum. These are the main ones I can see for now.

Valenwood

    New Core Member- back from 07, no longer news.
    Valenwood Regions- needs to be updated to actually include the regions (and possibly other information) instead of discussion since its already decided. perhaps turn this into a FAQ thread about general VW info?
    Gone on Holidays- FLESH is gone, period. back from 07, outdated.
    Core- needs to be updated with the new core members. not sure if the whole "position for every field" thing is really worth it due to the core member to member ratio of the project, but thats a discussion for another time.


Valenwood Tavern

    To Do List- this could potentially be a very helpful thread, but needs updating (as far as I can see, not sure if its still applicable).
    New Leadership of Valenwood-no longer news, and FLESH is no longer leader. remove the thread.


I am also not entirely sure if its worth having city discusion forums for Southpoint or silvenar since they are rather far away and have very few threads. the falinesti one is worth it imho cause its such an important city. how about moving the silvenar and southpoint threads into Lore and removing those threads, and putting up a board for Arenthia instead? that way, cities/regions that are in development have the discussion boards and discussion focuses on them.

thoughts, suggestions? am I overstepping my bounds here?

Ok I hope that does it. And yes, something needs to be done about the city discussion forums. I was thinking either sub-forum, merge, or remove entirely (archive them).

Yes, I've moved and removed those threads. But lets see, I think the city forums should be archived, and then un-archive them when we get someone who is willing to make those cities. In place of those three forums we put in a forum for the Southern Isles (and move threads relating to it) and Arenthia (as that is our starting city). How does that sound?

Thank you Durdain, your being part of the Core is a long time coming also :D

I was thinking, we need to make a decision, either remove the tavern. Or move all threads at the bottom of the forum to the tavern and keep that part only for important announcements/stickies. As the two are drawing attention away from each other.

Just announcements in general should be there IMO. Right now we have many things. I don't know I just think that they both defeat each others purposes, the tavern is for general discussion and ideas, but both seem to also go on at the front.

How about rename them once we have all agreed which City comes next and use one as Future Cities Discussion/concept forward Planning Forum

agreed. this is, imho, the best way to keep it organized and easily accessible. currently, the only info I am able to find about arenthia is the claims boards. no lore or concepts or nothing. developing the city further would defiantly benefit the mod imho.

also, how about a new thread about the islands windsurfer? 11 pages is a lot of reading, and its kinda hard to keep track. new thread could include all pictures from the old as well as newest info, and would be a great PR tool ("look at what we already have done!" without reading through 11 pages of discussion)

A new thread sounds like a great idea but I dont think I have the time or internet speed to upload all the pics as i'm on an island off Venusuela.

Unless there is a way to attach an attachment to another post then I reckon I could do it. Ill see.

you could link back to all the attachments by hand and not have to re-upload anything. just open the attachment and copy its url, then post it in the new post. like this.

I have no problem with the green pact. I have a fairly good idea about what it is, and how it works. My head was working in a practical manner, do what we can do first, then so on. Arenthia we can do, but if everyone is so opposed to it, I have no problem setting our sights on something else.

I'm not coming back as a modeler, I'm coming back as me. I will mod when I can, and model also. The problem is I need those concepts as I described them to be drawn. It's how the program I use works you see. if we are not doing Arenthia, I propose we do a practical city, with the least organic architecture, as we simply do not have the modelers to make that. Our architecture is probably the toughest to make out of any mods out here, I'm willing to bet on that even. If you know where to find modelers for it, please share your information. I tried before, and no one was willing to make architecture for us.

We could use people like The Modax Jago, but we don't have them. And I don't want to divert their attention for their own mods, as I know how annoying it is when people did that to me. Sure we 'share' recourses, and man-power with our fellow mods. But there is NOTHING worse then when you spend so long searching for a modeler, finally get one, and a person from another mod comes over and says 'Hey wanna check out what we have here?'.

There is nothing wrong with archiving them (Valenwood Archive) as that keeps the information, keeps it accessible at that. And it clears up room. Keep it mind we can un-archive them any time we want. that time would be when we find a modder for that city.

I get what you are saying. Sure I'll try and make some plates etc. Just thinking about what makes them different from other provincial cutlery. Any way, this is getting off topic (Give up god of the forest? Frown ok, we all have to make sacrifices sometimes :D ).

Now, back on topic, lets make a clear decision on what we are going to do with those city forums.

just PM the dude if you want to recruit him Yes no one will ever know. just as a note, dont sound desperate and dont throw dirt on other projects. that generally doesn't attract people.

I for one think that developing the lore behind Arenthia will not interfere with the development of the green pact. arenthia is simply the single most convenient city to start building -- due to its proximity to cyrodiil and elsweyr -- but it has no lore behind it. when and by who was it built? how are its relations with other cities in valenwood? how are its relations with cyrodiil? who rules the city now? what are some historic events that took place there? basic lore like this is needed to make the city deep and interesting, not just a superficial, boring, town.

Me? It'll be a long time until I reach that type of skill with the program I'm using. I need something to build confidence, not to destroy it :D

You say Chitin, but that is a material of sorts no? What makes it LOOK different from other plates, why not just retexture OB ones? just throwing ideas out there.

Can I go ahead and ask Razorwing to put the City discussion threads as subforums into another forum. And to add an Islands Discussion forum?

Are you sure the Ayleids are older then the Bosmer? Well maybe older then the Bosmer but I hihgly doubt they're older then the Bosmer/Khajiit ancestors... They predate the Earth Bones.

Fair enough, I thought since she seems busy with Elsweyr and I'm relatively free the forum changes could be made.

I'm not sure where you're getting the ayleid in VW thing from, but I'm quite sure that they didn't inhabit it. the ayleids inhabited the heartland of Tamriel (that is cyrodiil and borderlands). there were of course aldmer in valenwood, but thats where the bosmer evolved from (as well as all of the other elves).

Ayleids, Altmer, Bosmer, Dwemer and Dunmer all originate from the Aldmer I believe.

yes, all elves come from the aldmer. yes, there are some ayleids in VW now, but those are descendants of the cyrodiil ones that fled after the imperials came to power and after the Alessian Order's cleansing of Cyrodiil.

what books was this raggidman? I seem to be unable to find anything like that at TIL

Woah, woah, woah.

We do not know that all elves come from the aldmer.

there are myth alternatives, that may be your personal favorite, but to just shut it down like that is I think a little reckless.

TIL keeps copies of texts from games separate in game sections, most times they are the same but sometimes differences are noticeable (eg. The Real Barenziah DG - MW... hehehe)

I'm 17 as of 3 days ago :D but still, thats hardly bad at all. the US are pricks when it comes to sexual content and the restriction thereof, but consiquently it leads to a very sexualised culture that is not comfortable with said sexuality. anyhow, I've read worse :D
