Title: Merging back with FSTDT
Post by: shykid on January 16, 2017, 03:06:11 pm
Since I'm in charge of FSTDT now, I am totally cool with this idea and all for it. What do you guys think?

For you admin'y and mod'y folks, wanna help me make this happen?

Fine by me, but I'll wait to hear what the others think.

I've got no problems with this.

I wouldn't mind.  Even if its just a link up at the top of the mainpage.  No real reason for a rename or anything.

All good.

I think it would be a good way to attract more users, as the main way people got interested in the forums before was through the mainpage.

For what my opinion is worth, I'm very much in favour of this.

Also, if there's any help you need from a computer illiterate like myself, just let me know.

I'm very much in favor of this for livening things up around here. I've been hoping for it since you and Rav worked things out with the mainpage.

I'll add a Forums link back to the mainpage navigation bar later today.

Should we rename back to FSTDT Forums or subtitle (i.e., "FQA: The FSTDT Forums") to keep users from getting confused?

Also, if we're joining forces again, I'm still leaving modding this place up to you guys.

Edit: When I say "later today" (and I do quite a lot), it means "I'm on my tablet or phone ATM," not "I'm lazy right now." Usually.

I vote rename it. Might as well make the transition complete.

Keep some sort of indicator that this is FQA as well as the FSTDT forum, otherwise it'll look weird with the URL having fqa and no mention of fstdt.

Changing the subdomain (back) to fstdt.digibase.ca shouldn't be any trouble. I'll get in touch with Krad.

I say we rename it.
Title: Re: Merging back with FSTDT
Post by: RavynousHunter on January 17, 2017, 08:22:37 am
Ultimately, I'd say its up to Sigma and Krad regarding the name, but both are good options.

But we were going to get FQA shirts and everything and I already burnt all my FSTDT stuff so I'll have to get new ones and... *grumble grumble*

I say renaming is better. It'll make it easier for new users to find.
Title: Re: Merging back with FSTDT

Gonna put off adding a link to the mainpage until I hear back from Krad.

Yep, works for me.

I like the idea. Get some fresh blood in. Maybe a better class of trolls.

He's the ignorant troll that we deserve, but not the ignorant troll that we need.

Sorry, have not been checking regularly enough and missed this thread.

If y'all want to merge back, I'm all for it.

I object most strenuously!

Seriously, go for it.

Bumping this thread I abandoned because I got distracted by other things. I still really want to make this happen, and I'll be available today to post here and there, but I'll have the time to be a more active participant this weekend.

Here's a list of what all I'll need from you guys. Let me know if there's something I'm forgetting. When we get the two things done (and preferably decide something on the third) or just arrive at a general consensus on them, I will add a link to the forums to the FSTDT top navigation bar and a prominent mention on the front-page sidebar. The link will be "FQA Forums" until the first two things are done and decided on, then I'll change it to "FSTDT Forums" or just "Forums" depending on how we decide to go with the naming.


Edit: Shy fails list markup forever.

I'd been meaning to reply to this post, but hurray! I'm glad to see we've already returned to FSTDT.

This is not my beautiful house

And I'm not your beautiful wife. In fact, it would be really awkward if I were ANYONE'S wife.

It's like I never even left.
Except I did, for like 6 months or something.
