These message boards fail

[Malevz]

Okay, I think we've all noticed the message board for red 99 has failed. Lately I'm too busy in game to bother logging into a message board just to find out what people in game are thinking, specially now global OOC has been added. Also the number of people using the Red 99 section of the message board has dropped significantly.

To improve this I would suggest:

1. Wiping the message board. This would allow new users to come in and have comparable post counts to some of the long time players. Lets face it those of us that love EQ still have less time for message boards as we get older, we have families and ingame stuff to do.

It's not fair just cause we have commitments that we can't have the high post counts that the board trolls have

2. Change the post counting so all new messages count as 10 message. This would allow us to catch up with all the people that have posted a ton without having to do the work of actually posting. We want high post counts as much as the next guy, we just don't want to ... yknow actually post.

3. Double posting and two accounting. Let us count double posts toward our post count, or let us use two accounts to post and they would count toward the same post count.

If this isn't done immediately I will Heartbrand all over the message boards, whine in OOC and send endless petitions about why I am right.

Thank you for listening.
