Author Topic:   Should we move to Apolyton?

I'm not a very big fan of the Apolyton site, because I think their "moderating" policy can make you feel rather like an errant schoolchild at times (and that "Junior Civer" thing is awful!), but even so, would it be an idea to move our Multiplayer discussions over there? I like this site, but if it's going to be unreliable, maybe it would be safer to move. Also, it would make sense to have all our discussions in one place, as I do find myself hopping from forum to forum and missing some threads in the process, which is a shame. The Apolyton site, despite its relative dullness, does at least work properly. However, if we were to move, it would require general agreement, so that we don't end up with some people here and some people there. Also, an occasional post in here directing any new Multiplayer people over there would be needed.
Any opinions?
Cheers,
Nell

Well, their BB SW is more up to date, but here I can open a thread in few seconds, there I often get time outs!
So far, it's ok for me to keep there turn tracking, and eventually narrative threads, but I won't give up my forumship here.

It might be useful to post the url of "the Apolyton site" for those unenlightened few [myself, for example] who dont know it... *yet*
[In the meantime, I'll just browse thru the forae (plural of forum ?!) for inspiration and/or go and see where Yahoo sends me when I search for Apolyton... ]

URL is: apolyton.net/smac
Apolyton is a bit slower, but I like the software a lot more. And I haven't seen them crash once!
