Gamers Hangout now has 2 sub forums called:

Console Gamers

PC Gamers

We have also appointed a new moderator for that forum who has been on Neowin a long while and is a great bloke all round, silly_walk

[MxxCon]

ugh :(

single forum worked just fine before

now i have to do 2x as much work to read everything..

[Toxikk Veteran]

mxx, it was getting quite out of hand. we had to take some action to clean it up. hope you all can understand. :cool:

[MxxCon]

ada know..i was reading it every day and it looked fine to me.

yes it was active, but it doesn't mean it was "getting quite out of hand"

[Tim Dorr Veteran]

The getting out of hand was refering to the trolling and almost-but-not-quite-flaming going on. We just think the forum needed a little more focus and a closer look :)

[redrope]

This is good to see. Great idea Neobond. This should make everything a lot easier to navigate and to know what is being talked about.

And congrats silly_walk! :D

[MxxCon]

Haven't you figured out that it's for board games only, e.g. Game of Life, Monopoly, Cluedo etc? You should really think before you post silly questions.

:p :blush: :woot:

Monopoly, Chutes and Ladders, Win Lose or Draw, Taboo.... Pictionary

[Jon]

hahah nice one staind :)

[redrope]

The main forum is just for general gaming talk, like "Whats your favorite game", "How long have you been playing" or anything like that. Its just for more general stuff.

:whistle:
