A private forum for each country
« on: August 19, 2011, 01:14:38 AM »
Can we have a Forum under the general forums for each country. Like "BISH FORUM, ROOK FORUM, KNIGHT FORUM" Is there anyway we can link it to the game so that only those who are that country may view it. Not guest, Not a different country, just the players the are in the dignified country. I would imagine with this being available it would be much easier to organize squads and tactics against one another.

     How exactly do you propose to filter these BBSs, since folks can change sides every 12 hours?  Seems like a HUGE
headache for nothing to me.

your point is valid. But I'm sure something is possible. Perhaps when you switch you can not access any country forum for a week?

I'd suggest your squad forum and if you are that serious about organizing in secret, track down the e-mails of the dedicated country squad CO's and starting an e-mail list.

Whats the point of trying to increase animosty between the chess pieces? It seems like nothing more than a giant E-peen fight to me.

My cartoon flag is better than yours, we have a HORSE!

Nuh-uh, horses are stupid. OURS has a pointy tower on!

I agree, horses are stupid.... and towers are just dumb  :neener:.


Whats the point to it? To boost morale in your cartoon war? If you think about it, the only thing you're rewarded with is a nice pretty picture on your computer. Its not like you actually get to fly a real 262 with your map-win perks.
You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

I'd prefer to get rid of channel 200.  IMOH AH2 would be better off if international communications was restricted to the lobby and the forum.

having a forum section for each country would be nice.

the ingame accounts are not interfaced with the forum accounts, which is great. I'm sure people would switch countries just to read the other's country BBS, and that alone renders your idea useless.

I talk to so many people on all 3 countries that the good talk on 200 by far outweighs the bad <S>

How would your CO send all of his rude private messages?

You complain about 'spiez' now, this will be even harder to enforce and I guarantee you that Skuzzy won't put himself in that position.

You'd be better off trying to get a Country specific mission planning forum set up and making moderators players of that country you trust and only letting in players that can be trusted and want to be involved in missions and strategy.  That being said, I don't know if Skuzzy would want to go there.

You can already get rid of channel 200.
You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.
