Title: Interforum Post Bomb Extravaganza 2016!
Post by: Ignatius on 09, December, 2016, 12:42:13 AM
Hey GSHC!

Following the rousing success of last year's inaugural inter-community event where we all got to meet new people, encounter new ideas and explore new forums, it's a no-brainer to set-up the Interforum Post Bomb Extravaganza 2016 - now with 25% more participating forums, and 2x the number of days!

From Friday, Dec. 16th - Saturday, Dec. 17th, you are encouraged to post as much as possible (without spamming, except on Aeiou, heh) across any and all participating forums! Bond with your siblings on other sites, and have fun!

Participating forums:
Golden Sun Adept's Refuge (http://www.gs-adeptsrefuge.com/forums/)
Temple of Kraden (http://forum.templeofkraden.com/index/)
Golden Sun Hacking Community (http://forum.goldensunhacking.net/index.php)
Golden Sunrise (http://www.goldensunrise.online/index/)
Aeiou (http://w11.zetaboards.com/Aeiou/index/)

Unconfirmed:

Sounds fun enough. A shame I have an exam again this year though.

I'll join in if I can find any time afterwards, and if not then I may release a patch or two in the days after.

After some rehashing of ideas and some misunderstandings across the forums, I'd just like to clarify that the interforum post bomb on the 16th-17th will still go ahead!

Huh? This seems like de-ja-vu?
This wouldn't happen to be related to Grandma's Cookie Clicker company, would it? Did you get the idea from them?
Spooky!

Ooooh, I did not know about that.

Anyway, our cookies are better. OUR COOKIES ARE THE BEST!

Oh...

Well, that sounds good then. That was a close one!

*Grabs one*

I think she's after your cookies!

I decided to make a post on one of them. A little worried it'll look like an ad or something, lol.

I'm not sure if I have the strength or willpower to post on the other sites though; have fun in my stead everyone!

Edit: Can I just say how much I love a url to this site being in the first post saying that this site is participating? I imagine it's a copy+pasted message but still.

Haha, it might be. It could also be a good reminder. =o
Anyway, sorry for the delay! I had to actually register first, and I don't think I ever got the validation email... but it seems one of the admins approved me anyway, so here I am!

Welcome Satterrible!
Yeah, likely a way to say we exist and are pretty much inviting them to come... And many of you seem to be active on those others? Unfortunately, GSHC is the only GS site I'm actually active on.... Maybe that could change in the future, but who knows.

@email:
-You didn't mis-type it?
-It wasn't in a spam folder?

But yeah, I believe that the email requirement (to post) should be changed. Because... think about it...
Why exactly is email a requirement anyway? I mean, I might get it from a "this is what society does".... but is it really necessary, though....?? Hmm...
If it is about an anti-bot feature, I'm not convinced.... (Since there may be alternatives.) - (Esp. given that I did try a Guest-may-post thing on YL for quite a long time now, and no problems yet. - You still had the captcha, though.)
If it is password recovery... well, email companies are not hack-proof... (Password Recovery is basically a reason to support email, rather than requiring it.)
Etc.

Haha, yeah, there was definitely some copy-pasting going on there. I was just thinking, though, "provide a list of all participating forums", but I guess it doesn't make much sense to include the forum I'm posting it on, heh. I think I did the same on my home forum. x)
