I'd like to keep summer discussion in the events calendar, but this seems too important to just let slide into another announcement. As such, the following boards will become read only effective immediately, and will be slowly filtered out over the next week. If you have a thread on the following boards, please pm MYSELF to have it moved to the appropriate board. I have plans for certain threads.
TF2: Due to the fact we no longer have a TF2 server (you can change that (http://nsfcd.com/area6/index.php?topic=98.0)) and TF2 discussion has dried up, the board will be retired. All discussion of TF2 can take place in the PC Gaming board.
Arts and Written: Neither board is truly thriving, instead, surviving on a handful of threads. From now on, Nintendo related art (graphics, stories, reviews) can go in the Nintendo board, so on and so forth. The remainder will be part of Arts Discussion.
Furthermore, I'd like to announce our Board of the next 1.5 Months...
In the News: this will be a board to discuss current events in a semi serious matter. With the absence of Serious Discussion, we've seen an absence of threads on BP, the separatists in Belgium, and so on and so forth. Is this because you don't want to talk? Or do you need encouraged? That's what this board opts to find out. Its success will directly relate to SD. Oh, and those Doodle news posts could be game too.
Board merge...
Forum Features and Help and Feedback: will be merged into NSFCDiscussion. All discussion pertaining to the sites features, help with the forums and the software, and suggestions belong here. The name is sort of misleading, so I trust you can figure it out.
These changes will take place as soon as I am done dinner. Feel free to discuss.

...what
Also, my comments.
about the Arts and Written.... do you mean that Drawn is going too? and the general Drawn topics will be discussed in The Arts Discussion? Or maybe did you mean to say "Drawn and Written" instead of "Arts and Written"? I'm just a bit confused here... :/
But I am disappointed that all our discussion of sigmaking will be split between Nintendo and The Arts (Since about half the sigs here feature Nintendo characters, and half do not.) ..or is the GFX/sigs thread staying in the Arts and all sigs will be discussed there? That seems like a good idea to me :/
In The News.. I was sort of hoping for a while for some kind of Media board, with the purpose of discussing music, movies, TV, and news, but this is fine too. I'm having slight hopes that it stays to replace SD, but I'm having doubts it will be able to survive.
NSFCDiscussion- First, I will try to form an acronym to match that. NSider Forums...
Cock Cork Cunt...Clam Discussion? Yeah, I got nothing. But anyway, I think this is a great idea, since no one really uses the Forum Features board, and a lot of the stuff on there is stuff like asking for help, giving feedback, etc. Will this new board be where Help & Feedback is now?
That's all I have to say on this.
no i hate change ||||||||:

RUINED FOREVER
...why is that? I see nothing wrong. Although, dear Drawn board, I will miss you.
Why did we get rid of Drawn? Despite being only slightly thriving, it seems most practical where it is. It's the place for ART, and we will ALWAYS have art. Just keep it there, how it is. It worked, don't change it.
Alright, I want drawn back. I can't post my drawings anywhere else. ;_;
And this is why the board changes haven't happened yet. To see how much bawwwing would occur. Drawings can go in art (if they're specific, in other boards)
Yeah, but Arts is mixed in with discussion on music and stuff.
I got an idea. Merge Written and Drawn. So we'll have one convenient board for user-created art. Anything made by users can go there. :/

So if I draw a bunch of random things they go in art, but i draw ONE POKEMON that one has to go into Pokemon? I don't like it, Mack. :(
just merge it all into media and if anyone asks for a specific thread to be moved move it.
not that hard.
I'm still for the merge of Written and Drawn.
...Or just merge it all into media.
seriously with graphic artists there's only like me and i haven't even been that active as of recent.
Well I would post more of my drawings/etc if I had a board for it :(
And no, I don't want to have to resort to just Arts in general.
I'm offering floats to active stories/galleries/etc. So there shouldn't be a concern.
Well, if we still can't have a Drawn board, I still say all art should go there, even if it is from other fields. Like a Mario Sig would still go into the Media board.)
It's just more convenient that way.
