It is with mixed feelings I announce that the NSFCD Boards, which I have fought to preserve for many years, and basically helped design their last two iterations, will be changing yet again.

The big change? Game boards are going, going, gone. Our new game boards will include:

  • PC Discussion
  • Handheld Gaming
  • Console Gaming

That's it. Well, not quite, as we're going to have a poll (without a poll). Your other options are this...

  • Have a general discussion board for games (ie. Castlevania series talk, etc)
  • Same as above, while it has a sub-board for Pokemon
  • Having general video game discussion take place here, in Power On.

Now then, speaking of Power On, it's time for a change. Overwhelmingly the staff accepts a name change (although, not unanimously). We're divided on how to do it, so, you, the users, will do so. A poll will be set up on Saturday and be open for 24 hours as to the name of Power On (with PO being the first option on the list).

Thus, you have two jobs.

1. Post name suggestions here for Power On.
2. Vote "1," "2," or "3" as per the above as to how video game discussion will take place when it covers music, more than one game, etc. This "poll" ends Saturday at 1 Pacific time. Staff are encouraged to vote. Again, YOU MUST POST.

Board changes will be in effect as per September 19th, 2010.

Inb4 poopstorm. Hopefully there's no poopstorm.

I thought this was going to happen waaay sooner than it did.

It will increase activity, so I guess that is good. I like the idea of having three main gaming boards and sub boards for each major franchise, the other parts of the board will be anything that spills over.

Power On does need a name change. What, I do not know, but all I can say is that there needs to be a change.

this wont really increase activity it will just make it look better and everything

also power on should be titled "NSFCD's Only Real Board"
Tramps like us, baby we were born to die.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Don't worry, Silver will break it. He likes breaking things.

Can't say I'm against it. Can't say I'm for it.

Looks like a wise decision nonetheless.

I'll go for 2, and if this option is picked it will in a few months be changed to 1 nonetheless, then later possibly 3.
As for new Power On name... I say Power On is fine, it's like, not the overly common "General Discussion" that all forums have, it's almost it's own unique thing (even though it's not unique due to many other fake Nsider forums existing).

This forum is basically dead anyways, no matter what you guys do, it helps for a little while, then it all goes to poop and we end up being just as inactive as ever. Not counting the chat thread, there's basically 10 posts a day. Though, when a good new game comes out (or maybe even a bad one), more posts come, until the game is a week or 2 old, then it's back to inactive.
I'm not leaving, I'm just saying, this place is basically dead.
Also, big games (Like Survivor & theneverendingstory Big Brother) drag on too long too often.

I personally like the way things are :-(

Also, make an internet board for links and events around the web.

Saying NSFCD is dead is a pathetic. Again, all post nsider sites are experiencing the effects of not differentiating their targeted userbase enough.

SkyMyl

I vote for 2.

And Power On's name should be changed to Power On.

Well, the staff is hoping to change all that in the coming weeks.

Tahrann. Your avatar consists of the greatest 'fat' person in a manga, and my favorite character from it.

Fuck yeah!

Oh Vesperia, never change... never change
