What I like About The Concept of This Forum

... previously with forums 'dedicated' to specific games the position of strength lies with the Game Developers, players may come and go to their game and but they can call the shots.

With a forum like this the constancy lies much more with the players. Game developers have to be much more aware of the playerbase that is out there and it is they who must fight to appeal to the players who call the shots with where they spend the money.

Long live GHQ and game developers ignore it and it's members at your peril

I like how many of us (well lets face it - all of us on Day 1) have got something in common but can talk about other gaming interests and history without it being put in off topic (which isnt widely read) or even worse garbage binned (shudder)


I've used far too many brackets in that paragraph but I'll live with it.

I agree Mega, it is good to have a majority of people come form a common game and talk about it and the other games they've played.

Loving this forum, developers beware.

For a new forum, it is kind of like an comfortable old shoe. We know most of the people posting and are comforatble interacting with them. Going to be very interesting as we discuss other games and I think even have the ability to have a bit of different type of discussion re eu.

I wonder - can scammers be named here - I have not looked at all of the rules yet.

I'm excited because I hope GHQ can secure talks with other game developers about their upcoming games/expansions.

I just reviewed the rules and did not see anything about not posting info on scammers. Perhaps it is going to be allowed here.

I suspect that it's an oversight, but we shall see.

I can't see it either, although I'd imagine the same reasons we have the rule on EF apply here too. I've mentioned it to Angel and 711 so we'll see what they say.

Yeah, I imagine this site will have a similar stance regarding scamming...not just for EU but for any games discussed here. It just creates a bad atmosphere...
