Just for the good order.... The thread closure has nothing to with my (the last) post in the thread, but is part of some forum wizardy Brett has been working on.

Don't blame me, it was T.j!

Ha ha ha!

I'd better just clarify then that the "With all due respect to the reasons give" in my OP wasn't actually just an English way of saying "You maniacs!!!". It was genuinely a "Reasons understood, and reasonable, but..." :)

Having said that, I can't miss this opportunity! :p

Difficult to split up the Canonn thread as it was mainly a clearing house for all discoveries - people knew where to report weird stuff. By the very nature you cannot split that up or people will just get discouraged and wander away.

Yeah, this is kind of my concern as well. Wouldn't want to see (metaphorically) New Scientist cancelled in favour of putting things in subject-specific journals.

I really dislike the new Forum structure. I used to know where to find information, ask questions, and just have a general chat about pertinent things. Every day, over breakfast, lunch and after dinner, I perused the Canonn, Raxxla and FRift threads because they were what interested me and I liked the (semi-)scientific approach of the Canonn discussions. Now it seems to be a matter of delving into a whole load of threads under the headings of Aliens or Lore, Roleplay & Events. There are already 262 threads in the former and 16 threads in the latter. This is madness!

The Formidine Rift thread was nothing to do with roleplay! It was for exchange of information and ideas about Salomé and her quest to reveal the truth; when people tried roleplay there they were politely requested to take it elsewhere.
The Canonn thread, although at times unwieldy when new things happened and everybody & his uncle posted into it, was a good starting point for conversations and provided a summary (the First Page) of theories, hypotheses and results.

NOW I CAN'T FIND ANTHING!!!!!!!!
I got a lot of enjoyment from discussing the game in the appropriate threads; the game and the forum discussions were part and parcel of total experience. I was looking forward to 2.4; now I'm lost.

Disgruntled of Mu Leonis.

That's how I feel as well. Sigh.

Well, the alien archeology & other mysteries temporary discussion thread has now been closed down.
Can anyone tell me where the new discussion area is supposed to be, because I can only find 383 threads under Aliens and I am NOT going to wade through 380+ threads every day to try & find something of relevance!!!

As most people have hopefully seen already, Ozric's created a bunch of new Canonn threads. They're stickied on the main Aliens page. Here's the links in case anyone's missed them:

I feel for you, I always knew that something had happened overnight, when I woke & the Canonn thread had jumped 20 pages overnight, now it seems spread so thin that you'll be lucky to notice anything.

Nothing affects us poor humans more than change!
