future of this forum

[aprentice16]

was talking to vorch today about this forum, and it's future.

here's what i think:

we now have the om, so natually all dinotopian threads will be posted there. there for, i'm in favour of giving this website a whole new look.

first thing, people might register here just for the off topic forums. they might not even have heard of dinotopia.

there for, i think we should change the ranks. for example, if someone sees dolphin back, or say sorian they'd think..what? why do i want to come here, it's all dinosaur stuff.

also, i think we need to remove the dinotopia forum from this board. stuff like the haven of the muses and the sun stone gardens can be kept as normal (though maybe change what it says about each forum)

i can see this place becoming good, i'll have to think more

Oh I like it as it is. I don't know about the rest of yah, but I like how there are two Dinotopia message boards. The OMB and the ToP. You have your OMB for topic discussion and here is for those time you just want to rant to your friends or post pretty art. And you might even have the DinotopiaRP board for Roleplaying. A set of three boards that meet the needs of ALL Dinotopians. Thats how I see it, and would like to see it. Plus the ToP has such pretty colors! XP

I agree with sil.

I second that.

Also we have the New dragon's Lair for the dragon topics,
The New Outer Island, and Dakota's Pet Town.

Agreed. If you take away the Dinotopia influences you take away the potential of Dinotopia discussions, and this was really intended to be a community of Dinotopia fans. It would be sort of be like defeating the purpose, wouldn't it?

[Dakota]

Yeah.
Also, Dwaggie mentioned my other fourm, Pet Town. That is availble. I also have yet ANOTHER fourm.
Nred Outlet. The link is in the affiliates.

*nods* I can see your reasoning, but this board will stay the way it is. This is a second Dinotopian community, frequented by the same people who go to the OMB. The atmospheres at the boards is different and the boards serve different purposes. I don't want to see the Temple stripped of all things Dinotopian just because we have a new OMB. Besides, people who find this board first may travel to the OMB and discover Dinotopia to a new depth.
