As I understand it, a_skeleton_03 owns the new site and MMORPG.com has owned this site for about a month now.
Ok so we know Sunieg, he can kinda be a slightly whiny bitch who makes a lot of polls, he's generally tolerable and he's one of us. I don't know if he would abuse powers, or instill mods that would censor or ban people.
Ie: not just shock posters, but even shitty posters like Toonamba need to be protected from unfair bannings, no matter how terrible and wrong they are. I don't want a pure group think on the board, I don't want silencing. The fact that Toonamba is still here despite everything is actually pretty impressive, since virtually no one take's his side of the debate ever. Granted he's not a good debater or anything, but its impressive that he hasn't run away.
There's no room for exposition without differing points of view driving discussion. To me that, and the fear that Sunieg is just straight up data mining all out emails for some nefarious plot are my main fears in migrating.
I don't know anything about MMORPG.COM, sounds like they're trying to absorb as many MMO fourms as they can, and they ate this one up because WOW/EQ?
Otherwise this is personal.
The former means they don't know what the hell they bought and it's probably just a matter of time before our forum get's micromanaged and turned into a shit sandwich by outside forces, and the later guarantees exactly the same thing.
It stands a fair chance we are better of with the whiny bitch.
