Many STO fleets have their own forums and communities outside of the STO Forums. With AFCTF having put on a couple of contests already, regular fleet events, and due to our members being a little more... unusual than the norm. Would AFCTF members and such like to have an external forum?

Have you done any sites before?
I've run my guild site for years...Used to host an SWG Tempest site...plus I host my wife's family restaurant page.
I have a specific computer setup for it. Have a dedicated static IP.
I am not great at page design tho... hehe
I can either tag on a subdomain of www.argonia-station.com or if someone wants, they can register a domain...I normally would...but being unemployed...I actually don't have the spare cash for stuff like that...and don't want to ask the wife for the money to register a domain...don't want ot have to explain that one...lmao
Meh...so be it. My option is still available...if you guys want it.
*IF* I were to do it, I'd have something similar to what Marie setup, and since I know phpBB very well...I'd use that. I am not a dictator when it comes to moderation...as long as things don't get too out of hand, I let things run their course.
What I would end up doing, forum config-wise would be sections for fleets who are part of the Ten Forward alliance...meaning fleets would have their own sections, as well as a combined area for all Tenites...
With the current one Marie has up and the other possabilities available. This could be quite an undertaking. If we look at housing boards for fleets a part of the Ten Forward Alliance, then perhaps it should be something like the following.
Board
-Main Socail Area (ie MU Ten Forward)
Fleet Areas
-AFCTF
-Other TFA Fleet
-Other TFA Fleet
Other specialty areas like Hort's Risan Love Shack, Marie's Senior Citizen Bingo For Retired Officers and such can be discussed and decided upon. Each fleet area could be overseen by a sub-mod or two from their own fleet that only has mod abilities in their fleet area. The AFCTF admins could oversee the AFCTF area and even appoint one or two others to oversee the entire board besides the admin.
Anyway. That's just some thinking out loud for now. Everyone needs a voice and some imput on this that visits Ten Forward and likes it here. Between the lot of us, I'm sure we can come up with something epic!
Yep. That's my train of thought too. We just need to get the rest of the Tenites over there or at least onto something....
Why was I not informed? The ten forward rules clearly state that nothing cool can happen without my inclusion!
This is my fault! I wanted to make sure everything was absolutely perfect for your arrival. Unfortunately, a lot is still work in progress.
Then, I'll be all for it!
EDIT:
I have a freewebs from way back that I never really use. I know there's a forum option, but I've never played with it and I'm not sure how versatile it is, but going the free route, that might be a way to go.
Just seems like over kill.
The only problem I actually see...is will be difficult to recreate what we have here, somewhere else.
We tried it with the Star Trek Legacy boards after Bethesda shut them down...It's still around...but not exactly very active...
Wait, the game isn't how much horror can we unleash before the mods spot it?
Damn, no one tell spacefork.
And I have no link because?
Because you delete PM's from me without reading them. <____>
I made it a personal rule long ago any interaction with a Hort would in a safe public place. O.o
Thank you Dawson, I did look several times but didn't see the particular site linked. Will register tonight.
Don't worry Hort! That's proof she ignores me too.
Hazard, you are an elitist snob.
I don't ignore you, sometimes my filter incorrectly identifies posts and messages as Hortly and blocks it. We are working on revamping the filters though. For now refrain from words even mildly perverted.
And would that include the word....cheese, madam?
