    there's prolly one around here somewhere, but if there isn't any chance of a magic forum?

    im sure there'll be loads of support (thats why im guessing there already is one)

    There was a thread a week or so requesting such a forum. Didn't get much support.

    I think they already have some forums linked off http://www.ccgireland.com


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    Yes but this will be one on boards, and enable us to boost our post count!

    I mean...

    It would be better, as it willdraw users, and i wont have to register a new account else where (i'm lazy, so sue me)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,481 ✭✭✭Vader


    This gets my vote. I would be very interested

    ive been checking out that site for a while and the only working, active forums it leads to are, believe it or not, boards.ie, which doesnt have a magic the gathering forum. Perhaps we could make it a private board and people could request access?

    Posted by ecksor before closing the last request thread
    Nein! Pix'n'Mix is the spiritual (and holiday) home of MTG.



    Eh ecks, Pix'n'Mix is a photoshopping forum with 1 thread about BTG cards. nothing to do with MTG at all

    isnt the frequency of requests an indicator of support?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,446 ✭✭✭✭amp


    No, it just means that two people had the same idea.

    I know wookie (one of the Gods of Irish Magic) from Gaelcon. I'll ask him (he's on Boards already) and see what he thinks. If there is a community there already, then its the community I'll support...

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    Anything happenning on this DeV?


  • Registered Users Posts: 895 ✭✭✭imp


    Most interesting... I'd definitely be in favour.

    I hope to hear an update soon :p

  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    just back from hol, I'll talk to wookie in the next while and see what he thinks...

    DeV.
    ps: till then I'll stickie it to remind myself.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,267 ✭✭✭Exit


    First, you'll have to remind yourself to stickie it ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,312 ✭✭✭mr_angry


    It'd be very interesting. What kind of rules would be imposed on such a forum though?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    Obviously the usual no trolling, no flaming stuff

    Might be a good idea to stop people posting up just to brag about their cool cards ie

    "HA! i have akroma angel of wrath, ph33r my superiority, you all suck!"

    Hmmm, not sure if offering trades should be allowed, but cash deals would probly be a bad idea....


    (is over-thinking this, sorry)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 139 ✭✭americanCat


    YAY!!! a Magic the Gathering forum!!!! i think that'd be pretty kewl...we could compare tactics and cards and stuff! and we could talk about which types of packs we like better and maybe even argue over variations in the rules..hehe..and my fav. card that i possess is a phantom nishoba..anybody wanna play sometime???

    It would most likely need to be heavily moderated. Maybe even 5 mods would be needed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    maybe more along the lines of 1 IMHO, or was that sarcasm, i only just got up so im not sure


    I dont think it would need very heavy moderation, except for the first while when people would come in and spam it for the laugh, after its been around a while, it should slow down


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,560 ✭✭✭Ivan


    Sounds good, sign me up!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,880 ✭✭✭nosmo


    But the question is how much use would the board get?
    I play Magic myself, but I'm curious as to what the hell you could talk about that would warrant a forum.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,279 ✭✭✭regi


    Well, we could always suck it and see. We usually give most forums a few weeks to get on their feet.


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    Aye, I havent been able to talk to Wookie recently but I think we should just go and do this and see how it works out. Regi, can you look after this for mods and what not.... you know more about the community these days then I do.
