I signed up thanks to your heads-up.
The site's kinda evidently a Nothingland child right from the get-go... "reactionary" is the term I would use. Still, it's refreshing to find a new place with a new crowd.
Looking forward to what may come.

Not actually true, appearances are deceiving in this case. The administrators of this site were working on it well before Nothingland went down. While it's lineage does lead back to Nothingland, it's purpose is definitely something different.
well then, the cat's officially been let out of the bag. ;) welcome! :)

in a sense, yes, as it was birthed from nothingland's phoenix ashes... many members moved over here and the majority of our members are (obviously, from a casual glance at the member list) members of the former NTL site.
in fact however, you'll find the general tone quite different from NTL in a lot of ways, and even i had to be schooled on how different it is. :D

Well, the cat's been out of the bag for a while. I'm not even one of the admins - just someone who is friends with them and wants to see the site pick up steam.
Good to see you here Boz.

According to the Great Cthulu himself this site wasn't scheduled for launch until sometime this summer but events beyond the great old one's control lead to a premature birth. Hence many of the features the great old one had in mind aren't ready and won't be for a little while.
Now according to the Magna Carter this thread, while greatly appreciated, belongs along side everything else in the everything else forum since this isn't RPG related.
true dat. growth is nice, but i was a bit leery about it growing too much too fast, so i didn't tell anyone yet.

Oh well, back to work. Firefox didn't take half the market share away from IE by talking trash, and the same applies here. I have got to get the news/article system up and running ASAP.
does that count as the sort of bad press that we do want, or don't want? ;) or should little consideration be given to it either way?
Do you still believe words mean anything, or do you realize that actions speak louder than words? Do you understand that those who talk the prettiest often commit the foulest of actions away from prying eyes?
um, yes? :) er, no. i'm not sure. :(
heh, no, i get what you mean. i'm not referring to Morrus closing the thread, i mean the thread existing in the first place, then quickly degenerating into a flamewar over nothing, with folks from a third set of forums egging it on, resulting in the thread closing before it really accomplishes any purpose other than making some self-righteous folks pissed off and maybe a small number of folks take an objective look at the site.
does that help us, harm us, or should we not care one way or the other?
LOL! Bullitt got banned for starting the thread.
@Boz: Yes.
Yes, apparently I'm no longer welcome at ENWorld. Did I actually break any rules? Is the presence and attitude of this site so offensive that it is an unforgivable sin to even mention it's existence?
Do I really care? The fact is that Eric Noah had a wonderful community. I really miss that community.
Quote from: Pooka@Boz: Yes.
LOL OK, some questions were not meant to be asked. ;)
Quote from: Pooka@Boz: Yes.
Possibly the best answer to that question that I can think of. Honestly. I think that those egging on the debate made some rather good points, personally - a roleplaying forum which is not afraid of more adult topics and discussion is a good thing, in my book. This is why you'll find me poking my head in here, as opposed to ENWorld.

i think you were judged guilty by association. you didn't do anything wrong at all, as far as i can tell. maybe Morrus assumed that you only started the thread to make trouble. *shrug*

Which is why your the type of person we want here.
if by "yes" you mean that it both helps and harms us, but we have no need to care one way or the other, i'm fine with that answer. ;)

The truth of the matter is that I only started the threat to help drive traffic. Did I start the flames? Did I participate in the thread beyond noting that this is not my site? Did I say anything on my board other than encouraging people to occasionally bump the thread?
edit - OK, I lied. I figure that I might as well post my farewell message to Nut Test.
Y'all are just bad.
Is that good?
Being bad is always good...
...unless you're Michael Jackson.
what the fuck?:eek: now I don't want to read that whole ENworld thread, but if I understand correctly Bullit got banned because he mentioned this site and people got heated in their debate? out of their fucking minds, they are.
no wonder i never post at ENWorld and have signed up for Nut Test, looked around, shook my head and left again without posting a word.
pooka, you got a great RPG site, ENworld can take it or leave it, their loss.
edit: took the time to read the ENWorldtread, and indeed it seems Bullit was deemed guilty by association, instead of being bashed for starting the thread. but reading the thread, what I think summons things best is: different strokes for different folks.
BS is as BS does.
Apparently it's okay for the regulars to pull the stick out of their hineys long enough to bash a board without even looking past the front page, while a swift ban awaits for those who try to call said regulars on such behavior.
Politics, thy name is ENWorld. Blecch.

I have read that thread on ENW as well as this one and all I have to say is COME ON. They try to say that this site is where the chilren are yet they are going to ban someone for even mentioning this thread. Which site is being immature and childish? Just curious.
I am sorry to the people who got banned from ENW due to this site, but I think if they are going to kick members out for having a different opinion then you are better off some place else (like here :D )
Quote from: Cat of Ultharwhat the fuck?:eek: now I don't want to read that whole ENworld thread, but if I understand correctly Bullit got banned because he mentioned this site and people got heated in their debate? out of their fucking minds, they are.
To be fair, the reasons of Bullit's disgrace was also, I think, because of the comments #17 and #28 in the SO discussion. They can be interpreted as condoning the rabble-rousers' attitude. But three days of exile aren't that long, especially when you have other homes. I think it's better to not blow this little psychodrama out of proportion...... Unless you want to pay me to know the dirty secrets of your enemies. Then yes, continue to be aggressive, it's good for my business.
Too many cliques over there, the double standards are rampant, and I miss the old days before all the commercialism turned the place into a politically correct corporate asskiss site.
Hi!
Welcome to the RPG site, RnR. :)
Thanks y'all for reminding me , why I left ENWorld the same day I signed up.
Not that I needed one , but still...

I look at it this way. The ENWorlders that are stirring up shit in that thread are the type that we don't want here anyways. Its staying up in the forum and hopefully some will click through to here and actually register. And at this point the thread is more about Russ's reaction to the initial thread on ENWorld than the site itself.

Bullit didn't even contribute to the flamewar that ensued! As far as I'm concerned, there was no reason for Bullit to be banned. In fact, given his typically insightful and useful posts on ENWorld, I think that community is worse off without him.

I don't know. I think I understand their reaction.
Drader posted a link to the website and let's face some honest facts - the copy on the front page of the website makes it pretty clear that this is trying to be what ENWorld is not.
Which in my mind is a good, if not a great thing. My cup o' joe.
But, I can also clearly understand why a post on ENWorld that amounts to "come check this out - we have none of the crap that endlessly plagues your site" gets their goat.
Are they passive agressive marys most of the time? Yeah. Do I think they maybe have a right to say "yeah, I don't like the way that site advertises itself." Sure do.

It would be a lot easier to advertise yourself as "not being like ENWorld" when you don't compare yourself to ENWorld and when you don't post on ENWorld saying "look at me."

We are coming in late, but we are still compelled to add our 2 coppers.
We (Redcap) do not wish to have slap fights with ENWorld. We remember Nothingland and remember that the slap fights there usually brought the attention of the worst ENWorlders. If we (the RPG Site) bring over ENWorlders, they should be the best and brightest, not the ass haberdashers.
We (Redcap) would also really appreciate it if certain people who run certain other message boards did not drag this message board into their slap fights. :p
All the fun went out of that whole thing last week some time. It's not even worth trolling any more.
To be fair to Whisperfoot/Bullit, the contraversy traces back to the original mission statement, for which I am solely responsible since I approved it for placement there (though it was written by Shakespeare and I thought it would be appropriate).

Thank you Boz.
Anyway, no I did not go to ENWorld to stir up drama. Maybe I should have checked with Pooka before making a statement, but since I will have some involvement with this site in the near future, I saw nothing wrong with trying to send some people this way. I was amused by the ruckuss Schizm and Knightcrawler were causing, but I wasn't participating in it, nor was I condoing it. I do feel that Russ banning me was more than extreme, given the history NTL has with that sort of thing, and I think it has more to do with his desire to see his bizarre version of Nutkinland succeed and my attempt fail. Other than that, the rest of the drama is stupid and ridiculously overblown.

I get the sense that Morrus' actions have less to do with wanting Nuttest to succeed and more to do with not wanting to tolerate our crossposting to his boards anymore. He sees it as an attack, and to a certain extent, it is. I think if any of the old Nothinglanders go over to his boards, and say anything derogatory about Nuttest or Enworld, he's going to bite. That's fine, IMO. I like our side of the tracks better than his. So going forward, instead of keeping this tenuous history with ENWorld, maybe it's time to cut off all ties with them.
thank god. ;) i'd still like to reserve the right to point out cool things i see over there, like "ooh, see that new RPG book review?" or "ooh, look what's going to be in Dragon next month" or "ooh, look at that cool feat/class/creature that someone posted" or whatever. that's by-far ENW's biggest strength, and always has been. i've been to other RPG forums that seem totally clueless on things that are common knowledge on ENW, and i don't see why we should be like that.
but yeah, the drama, sure it's time to dump that. ;) like others have pointed out, there are plenty of places to go if you want some of that. :D

But the incident in question was the first time that I had posted over at ENWorld in over a year. I have been a member of the forums since June of 2002 but only had a postcount of around 300. So you know I didn't post that much over there. I can still use the reviews page and lurk on the message board if I'm looking for info so there's no loss. :D

I'm proud to say my ENworld postcount is under 20. :)
I'm not ashamed to say my ENWorld postcount is several thousands! :p

Nope, not tens of thousands. Less than 8000.
