So the widespread use of emojis these days kinda makes forum smileys pointless, yeah?

Yeah. We decided it was a good idea to restructure the forums in an attempt to shrink vertical space and keep activity less spread out.

If you find something missing, bugged out, or would like to comment on the recent moves, feel free.

If you're curious to the details of the move, read me for details.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

Politics forum should be a subboard of Entertainment District.

Other than that, I like it.

You might be right about that, Joe.

Your face should be a sub board of Getting Kicked.

One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.

Re-split WoW from Battle.net. The topics may be similar, but the groups of people who are interested in them are distinct.

And re-split programming from both. My original request, paraphrased, was to have Battle.net programming expanded to WoW programming.

Agreed.

You can't just re-split forums! :P

Also, it's not like the Bot stuff is really active. Nobody here really works on bots anymore. I'd say if anything, do away with bots altogether, and tell people to use General Programming.

Camel

Maybe you're missing the point? I was subscribed to botdev, while I refuse to even read WoW posts.

Also, I find it pretty difficult to believe that you wouldn't be able to find a simple way to restore the topics to their original forum; presumably you have a backup of the db, and the forum wasn't even that big...

I have a backup, yes, but restoring that is a fair amount of work. Definitely not worth it for something I don't care about. :)

This is an outrage! Fight the system.

If you made 2^63 posts, the db would presumably run out of PKs (edit: and hard drive space), and then it would be easier for iago to just restore a backup. Might take a while to make the posts, though.

Ok, here's my counteroffer: I'll restore the database, in full, from the day before we merged the forums.
