Welcome (back)
« on: April 14, 2009, 12:08:37 PM »
Welcome (back) to the newest incarnation of the Specialist Games forums!!

Although the Forums are not officaly open yet (but we are getting there !!) I have noticed that the Grapevine is working and we see a steady flow of people registering on the forums already.

For all and sundry, these forums are intended to fill the gap when the old Specialist Games forums (suddenly) disappeared, and although Iain and Paul (from the GW side) tried hard to pull over the old forums into this new format, they have not succeeded (yet). And because we did not want to keep a vacuum, we decided to go ahead and open up these. Well, almost open them up.

Many of the old rules and restrictions will be in place, and most of the moderator force of the old forums made the transfer here. The forums themselves have some nice and nifty features that I am still finding out myself, so you are bound to see them in use over the next weeks.

So for now, get the lay of the land, and start posting (oh and yeah !!  I killed post-count features from the start on  9-)  so no need tp try and boost them with silly posts.

It is alive! It is alive!

Thank you for re-creating these wonderful forums.

I look forward to seeing more interesting posts on these forums :D ... And the less interesting posts, how are we to acknowledge the interesting posts if there are no posts that aren't interesting.

This is great can't wait to see if some new stuff starts to show up eventually for GW's best games. I am still patiently waiting for the next Epic supplement with Chaos and Tyranids!
