New forum

[enjoy]

We now have a new forum in Off-topic, called "World News"!

Enjoy!

First Post FTW

Woohoo, that's kinda cool...

With the new forum, we would know whats happening around the world. but we usually only stay in front of the computer. really. anyway this would be a way for the persons who at least watch news or look at newspapers to share to us what is happening. thanks xD

 

[LordDz]

Thanks, I like this.

There are not those many threads concerning world news, and sub-forums usually get less attention. I'm not sure whether it's a positive change. Time will tell.

The icon isn't showing. The path is wrong

For some reason the path has ended up like this:
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/images_all/forumicons/http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/pastebin_data/1tbc74/WorldNews.jpg.gif (Which obviously isn't right)

The correct path for the icon is currently this:
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/pastebin_data/1tbc74/WorldNews.jpg, but you can't use that one forever because that's a pastebin address, meaning it will disappear soon.

Cool!
Icon isn't working though :3

Aight, I thought you meant -completely new forums-, but it was just a sub-forum.
However it's a good sub to have, afterall, there's a lot of discussion of news around the hive.

I don't really think this was completely necessary.

Well, the reason for this sub-forum is, that news are actually being discussed quite alot. To make it all easier, we want to collect that in one place. Some people only go to off-topic to read about stuff like that, and discuss it. But because off-topic is off-topic, there are so many different topics. Seperating them a bit will make it easier for users to find the topics which they find interesting.

Another forum =p, that is really good!

I don't really think this was completely necessary.

must always have someone that disagrees

Forum icons cannot be displayed in that manner. Ralle has to upload them to the server manually.

 

[Dr Super Good]

I would rather see a major cut back in spam (useless threads with no point or useless posts not contributing to the topic in question) in the off topic section. Most threads there are full of image spam and trolls.

I remember how in the old days an off topic section was for threads that did not fit in other fourms. Now it seems to be a space to waste server resources.

Where can i find that World News?????

 

[enjoy]

In the off-topic forum. It's a sub-forum.

We need rules for world news, since people might consider it different. Example danish dog breed arent really considered world news?
