I don;t know if you understand but the GM's and programmers for this site can maybe fill a sardine can. Extremely small staff. To have them totally change the forums and the design would take them away from other really pressing issues. I suggest waiting for the next "Jozi Chat" on IRC and bringing it up in person to them then. They used to have these chats between the GM's and players every month or so, but lately have been fewer and farther in between.

I suggest sending an email to the GM's about your recommendations at....

gamemaster@simcountry.com

Good luck.

Paul, a while a go some bright spark came up with the great idea of having a blog for each player too. It was a great addition......for about a week. Then people stopped updating them. I feel that dedicated federation forums would go the same way and be nothing more than a waste of server space and development time. There is no need to have them as most larger feds have their own websites. These can be created easily and for free if you take up T's suggestion of looking at freewebs.com.

I would rather the few GM's that there are (3 I think), spend their time on sorting out the known bugs in the game, and improving how SC plays rather than add new things that will only be used by a small minority of people.

MSN is another good tool. I have every major player on my MSN friends list, and that is where most of the wars, boycotts and tactical planning is done.

i do think a private federation forum would be a good idea it leaves a history and would work better than fed chat reducing the strain on the chat funtion wich is bugged

It would not add money to their coffers though as each and every Byte that gets processed causes money to be burned for things like; electricity, manpower, internet usage, and several other things.

Oh and Paul saying that your spelling is getting worse because no one is really answering your question is bull shit and I will call you on it since no one else has. the word you are trying to spell is PRIVATE.

The reason W3C hasn't implemented a private forum feature is because:

1 They have been so generous as to give us World Forums.

2 They have given us our very own chat spaces.

3 The quality of these forums are not very good in the fact that they do not keep track of posts that you have read and the ones that you need to read.

4 It holds a very high possibility that these forums are not able to have a private feature.


I hope that answers your question Paul, now please improve your spelling.


With Regards,
Dragoon
