Re: Mile High Club changes.

So its been near enough two weeks and tbh I have to say this hasn't really worked. No offense but the forums outside of MHC are basically dead and beyond the occassional thread theres nothing actually going on.

Just putting it out there.

Yeah. Nice observation Shaun. Shame that it's wrong.

Sorry, but what's Mile High Club?

In my opinion it was a pretty crappy idea to segregate members in the first place

I actually agree tbh.

I think a system of maybe the regular posters should be let in rather than, just playing with 'us'. However if you personally start mass arguments be given an MHC suspensions then if it continues a banning from MHC.

That or get rid of thing altogether.

Just putting it out there, see what others think.

Your PR rep is -92, therefore your opinion is void.

I kid, obv.

If we got rid of MHC, the rest of the forum would be ruined. It'd be full of all the shit that we put in MHC because it really has no other place to be.

by Roosetifer on Sun Apr 19, 2009 3:36 am

Then option 1 seems like a valid point. Anyone else want to see if that could work, even for a preliminary stage. My only fear in doing that would be that the rest of the forum would be ignored, some members don't even seem to post anywhere bar MHC anymore.

by TroopahFTW on Sun Apr 19, 2009 5:01 am

MHC in my eyes is just where we post shit that aren't actually worthy of topics. It's like a public MSN convo. I can make a topic called 'Cunt' and then write 'Adam' and it'll be win.

That's what's pretty much happening at the moment though. The rest of the forum's pretty dead right now. I didn't know that there was a hidden forum for cool people before this thread was made, but I definitely wasn't surprised. I've always felt that segregation.

It's not for cool people. MHC members are in NO way "better" than any other members. MHC is literally just a bunch of barely intelligible, shit threads which would have to be locked or deleted if they were anywhere else in the forum. It's really just a continuation of our LIVE Banter, and people who don't really play with us wouldn't really get it.

Can we get another forum for other groups then? :3

by **D_C** on Sun Apr 19, 2009 5:24 pm

Timmy put it pretty well. Its not meant to be a punishment not being in there... And you're hardly missing much if you never play with them.

Like the MHC for a different group of people. May not be used much so might be a waste of time.

Something similar to MHC but with less spam?

Well, no. Cause, Like I said, it would be like MHC, but with a different group of people.

Oh, so that's why it was so quiet around here.

What's the point of the forum itself if there's a secret group of people who just want to talk behind the scenes? You may as well just make a Mile High Club forum and everyone else can just forget about it.

It seems like people just wander into topics without reading...
It's already been established that if there was no MHC, or the forum was just MHC in itself, it would be full of shit. And all the actual discussions happen outside of MHC, unless you think calling Slazo a fucking cunt is discussion.
The main reason it's so quiet here is because it's a very small community, you can't pin it all on MHC. Neutral

by Mercury's Phoenix on Mon Apr 20, 2009 2:41 pm

'People' have read it...

All I'm saying is that it might have been a bad move to have a hidden forum in the first place. Don't know how long this group has been together, but the forums have never been this quiet. And the community has only gotten bigger. These are just assumptions though, which I'm allowed considering I can't see the other forum.

Why would you need your own group anyways? Just creates an 'us and them' kind of feel, even if 'them' are just friends who play together regularly. Is this a 360 forum or just a place for Live regulars to get together and call each other shitheads and cuntbags? Because even though you say actual discussion happens outside of MHC, its always spilling over onto here. You say a MHC forum would be full of shit, but sometimes thats what it feels like here considering everyone just swears at each other. Its something I don't get because I've got nothing to do with you guys, y'know?

I'm getting involved in something that doesn't concern me again, aren't I...? But I did figure this forum was for people from ONM or where ever who just wanted to talk 360 when I joined, so I guess it does concern me.

Since the first forum, maybe before then in some form. So the MHC isn't the problem.

by Inofa on Mon Apr 20, 2009 3:44 pm

Yeah...

I'm starting to wonder why Will made this topic now. If he had just Pmed us lot who got kicked out, there would be less arguing here.

That was probably the exact reason it was kept secret anyway. To stop people bitching and moaning that they weren't in.

by **Will n that** on Mon Apr 20, 2009 4:18 pm

It was never a 'secret', it has happened since Prison Rules 1 when Shaun was in charge. It's basically just a forum for Live regulars to bitch at each other in a way that might offend / put off regular users. I don't want the crap spilling out into the main boards (partly why I made a video thread for people like Not Gabe Newall) which is what would happen if MHC were to go. I know a bit of it does spill out but without MHC it would be armageddon. Really. Don't anyone be pissed about not being in it because you aren't missing much besides Andy Carts getting his head kicked in.

Isn't that where the moderation team come into play?
