...but merging the OOT and Asylum makes sense at this point. They're both so slow, and nobody cares in the Asylum when I post mostly OOT-level posts.

Heck, you could just make =28 redirect to =4 and probably nobody would really even notice.

Also, I still hate when people make a thread title and finish it in the first line like I did here. I guess I'm a hypocrit for doing it, but hy **** you.

HYPOCRITE








Should make a post in =3 or something.

I prefer the segregation. I can't handle the level of idiocy that the Asylum deals out.

Oh, you southerners. Where are the German Shepards and fire hoses when you need them? AMIRITE?

We've been debating it back and forth. At the moment, both populations are growing somewhat, so we have decided to hold off on merging them at the moment. That could change.

I can't imagine merging the two to have a noticeable effect on the total rate of posts and userbase. I think the biggest hit to the OOT was the expansion of the book forum to include basically all media.

Would Varus still be allowed to play?
Cause he's the only reason I really go to the asylum.

As long as I don't start seeing a lot of political-based postings, then I probably wouldn't care.

Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that's exactly what would happen. :(

I don't see the problem. Neither forum has a huge new thread rate. I don't think this would increase the overall postrate or anything, but instead of having two forums where you get 6 posts/hour in each, you would have one forum with 12 posts/hour. It saves me from going back and forth between two places basically populated by the same people.

tl;dr - I'm lazy.

Though I would like it to remain the Asylum-style of forum where breaking the filter and such is allowed.

So maybe it would be impossible to merge them since they would feel obligated to provide a more moderated off-topic forum.

It'd only be a problem in that those threads probably see a lot more use and so it'd be very annoying to have to click on them to turn them not blue every time I visit the forum.
