partyatmygaff · 2009-05-04 22:45:02

We all know true and well about all the secret forums us regular members and others can't see. I know a few but have no clue what the hell goes on behind their closed doors. Diagon Alley - Harry potter fan club?(For nerds :D) PI mods forum - Kinda Obvious but so pointless Lolocaust - ???? :confused: Am i missing any?

There won't be any major changes.
We're just tidying it up and making it a bit clearer.

for subscribing you get access to the Subscriber Forum - a mix of everything else on boards. and you also get access to sex & sexuality forum and that's about it.
And some extra bits you can do with your profile etc.

As a subscriber you don't get any more info on the private forums as anyone else. It really annoys me - I suppose it reminds me of school with the in and the out crowd :o:o:o

I really can't see the problem with having a five word description of something. At least then you would know whether you had the slightest bit of interest in it. I don't like the idea that there is a subculture of boards that is virtually invisible.

a few more of the private forums - Peartree (can't remember full name of it), Knights of the Round Table (this one does sound intriguing).

Ok that's my little rant over

There you go folks.
Even the Admins have to ask for permission to access private forums.
They can access them anyway, but don't because they have morals.

I like to imagine Boards to be quite like an old castle. All the rooms (forums) we can see are kinda ok, because there are other people around. Then you have those sekrit rooms at the end of sekrit passages, behind .. not-so-sekrit bookcases and the like. And in those rooms are creepsy-crawlies, and the most unimaginable horrors.

Then again it could be just a bunch of power-crazed wánkers talking shyte, but now that would just be silly :rolleyes:

Allllll riiiiiight

Ah come on. The topics are so scrambled over there it'd be impossible to get a real pun out.
