Should the YJCC be group and game-free?

No.

Groups and games are more valuable to most people here than debating whether the actor who played Cloud City Security Guard #133 in ESB played the guy driving the blue car in Miami Vice episode #14.

 

I'll say it again....No.

Edit - What exactly is the point of this poll anyway? Perhaps I should ask what's the motive behind it?

This subject is really getting old.

See post after mine...

 

Nope. It's call "Your Jedi Council Community" for a reason. Games and groups are just as much a part of the community as all the other threads.

I don't like some of the threads at the JCC so I ignore them, and it's not hard for those who don't like groups and games to do the same. There's gasp!! 7 threads out of 50 right now that are groups and games and they're evenly spread out among the other 43 threads on the first page. I doubt it's seriously that hard to avoid those few threads.

 

No

 

No.

 

stop with all of this bullcrap of trying to change the YJCC.


Anybody that wants it changed...can go ahead and go to another friggin site...

GK edit: Let's keep it civil.

Go to SouloftheJedi.net...or anything else...go to the crappy OS boards.

Get off the YJCC's case.

Simple as that.

You keep trying to change the biggest and best Forum you got.


IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T TRY AND FIX IT

 

Doesn't really matter to me!

 

well said, J Sat!!

 

I voted "It doesn't really matter to me." because, well, it doesn't, since from what I understand another forum would be made for the groups and games. If that was the case, I wouldn't really care which I would need to go to. I don't go to JCC for anything very often anyway, so moving the stuff wouldn't bother me.

Now, if they got rid of it completely, then we'd have a problem.

 

did I also forget to mention that they also want to take the away the silly threads as well and leave it to just serious threads?

I still don't see the point in it, considering that is what and makes the YJCC is and if you do take away all three types then your killing the heart of the board.

 

No

 

No

 

Yes.

 

No, seems to fine the way it is.

 

No

 

No is my final answer.

 

I believe that similar topics and discussions about this subject have come up before and will come up again, and again, and yes - again.

I don't think the YJCC should be game or group-free. Why? Well, what else would there be in the YJCC if there weren't any clubs for people to join or games for people to play?

There's a forum for everything else, from the EU and films to discussions about "serious" disucssions, to the welcome boards, and the "polls" like this one. The YJCC should be a fun place to go and goof off as well as meet new people and create friendships.

If the "kill joys" don't like it .... sorry. Besides, no one has yet to present a solid and logical reason for why there should be "no clubs" and "no games" in the YJCC anyway. It's just people complaining ...

 

I agree with DM10.

I mean, why get upset about groups being formed? Why? Is it 'cos folk feel they're being left out? It's not as if these groups and games discriminate against anyone joining. Unless of course they have a "bad record" which precludes them, in which case they've only themselves to blame.

And if you don't wanna join, then how are you being inconvenienced by these groups and games being there? How exactly?

It's like all those people complaining about the number of threads devoted to this or that topic(like LOTR for example). If you don't want to discuss it, people, don't click the link. That's what I say. I mean OMG! the massive inconvenience it levies upon my life when I open up a thread and find it's a subject I'm not inclined to read! A full six precious seconds of my life wasted, that I can never recapture. The sheer horror!

Personally, I have no trouble with a thread devoted to any topic or "group", provided its purpose is not to deliberately offend or upset anyone who might be using these boards.

Who on earth has a problem with this? They should get a life, and if they really don't like the threads here, then they should either start their own threads on topics they do like, or stop coming here and find something else to do. Either that, or just put up with the oh-so-onerous task of clicking 'next', and proceding to page 2 because page 1 is full of threads they don't want to read.

How hard is that? How much of your life has been disrupted or irretreviably scarred as a result of having to 'sift' through to an extra page or two to find a thread you do like?!

Have any of these complainants noticed 'Active Topic Notification'? There's a link in every post for goodness sake!

Criminy!

However, I'm interested in what Falcon says. Why not? I for one would have no objection to a forum being set up for the exclusive purpose of social "groups" and games, that way all the people who don't like it could steer clear and not be inconvenienced(not that they are). I mean, I for one never visit the EU Forum. Why? 'Cos I'm not interested in reading about the EU, yet I have no objection to people discussing their chosen topic. A forum devoted to it is, in my mind, justified, even though I personally have no desire to visit it.

Same applies to any thread in any forum. You don't like it, people, don't click the link. Duh!

A lot of folk have expressed disatisfaction over the no. of threads devoted to LotR. Well, I could have told you a year ago that a) they'd be a lot of these threads here, and b) that there'd be folk complaining. In fact, that's why, at about the time TTT was released in Theatres, and we had a temporary forum set up specifically for the JC election game, I suggested that it might be worthwhile doingthe same for LotR, as a temporary measure. I PMd an admin about it to ask if it was a sensible idea or a ridiculous one.

I'll never know, because I never got a reply. But personally, I feel that if any subject or concept(whether it be groups and games, or a cultural phenomon that's captured a large percentage of the global user populace's zeitgeist) shows sufficient endorsement and patronage to warrant a hefty amount of discussion, and an equal amount of backlash, then a forum devoted to it seems applicable, so as to seperate devotees and bashers...

...of whatever the topic, purpose or concept may be.

That's my thought, but I see no logical reason why anyone should complain about any thread on these boards unless its purpose is to offend, abuse or mislead any user who potentially might read it, and groups and games can hardly be said to do so, unless they are discriminatory or defamatory.

 

No - it's too much fun the way it is!

 

I voted no because group threads and games make the JC Forums a better community. The only thing I believe that we should do is keep a directory of major fan clubs and discussion threads.

Wait, they do keep a record of fan clubs in the SW Community.

Game threads are also in abundance, and the Roleplaying board is a fun place for games.

 

It doesn't matter to me.

 

NO!

I would like to know what idiot(Sorry) came up with the 'no games and groups' idea.

What do they want on there? More threads on sex?

The only thing the YJCC needs is a little less talk on sex.

The rest of it is great. The clubs give it life!

BYS, LS, DS, JCHE*. Great stuff!
