  1. Dr. Yukiro, As others have said. We are all happy you are the new admin, glad for the regime change.

    Thanks for making this open source, you have helped immensly and have brought my game out of the unworkable graveyard.

    Many cheers to you
  2. Some of you might be interested in this. Minecraft started on a forum much like these. You can read the original thread here >>>>

    The Original Minecraft Thread:

    [http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=6273.0](http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=6273.0)

    It is funny to read about the forum members debating things like if you should have to chop trees, also the oringial screenshots really show you how much things have changed over time.
  3. The guy in charge of making EO 4 open source has stated that it will be open source sometime soon. He is a very good coder have seen his work before. That being said you will be able to implement guilds and other custom scripts, as Richy stated, as you like once it goes open source. Sit tight and work on mapping ect. for your game at the moment until EO 4 goes open source :)
  4. I would choose the name you feel resonates best.

    Arkadia holds so much meaning to me as it has gone back years and years. The name carries so much weight for me.

    What type of virtual world would you want to control? What would such a world be called? It is kind of like naming a child.

    If the name dosent hold any weight for you, try something else. The name Cyrus is however a fine and proper name imo, but it is a decision you have to ultimately make :)
  5. Ungod, your logic has basis in truth but is flawed.

    You assumption that the shoutbox takes away from prospective forum posts is on a rudimentary level.

    But I have a degree in business admin and in marketing. We need to dig deeper. I will tell you from a marketing persective that removal of the shoutbox would not force people to into changing thier shouts into posts. This would have an adverse effect.

    The content that people shoutbox and the content that people post could be viewed as a [Ven Diagram](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venn_diagram). With one circle comprising the content that people shoutbox and one circle comprising the content people post. There would only be a small sliver of the two circles that overlap. This small sliver is what you have become too focused on.

    What you have failed to recognize are the ["Negative Externalities"](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Externality) of such a decision. By trying to force the small sliver of the venn diagram into posting, you would eradiciating the whole circle comprised of things people typically shout.

    When doing a [Cost & Benefit analysis](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost%E2%80%93benefit_analysis) of decision taking into account BOTH the positive and negative externalities its easy to see that the negative externalities of such a decision would far outweigh any possible beneficial externalities of such a decision.

    Keep the Shoutbox :)

    The best communities are facilitated not sculpted.
  6. I want to play Weiss Schwarz just for the Sword Art Online cards hahaha. Are all the sets legal to play in tournament format do you know?
