Something Awful forums
 

I think some people here like me are following Dominions AAR's at the Something Awful forums, has anybody else noticed the forums have been "closed" to non-members for quite a while now?

Re: Something Awful forums
 

The Something Awful forums will occasionally close popular forums to nonmembers in an effort to encourage subscriptions. You can wait it out, or become a member for ten bucks (one-time fee unless you get yourself banned).

It's happened before, it'll happen again.

Just wait for it, it might take a few weeks but they've reopened before.

I really hope the pantokrator tread opens someday. I really want to know how that game ends... Its good to hear they have done this before :)

Joining the SA forums also allows you to join in goon games and the community is rather large with a varied mix of newbs to vets.

Wtf is/are "Something Awful forums" anyway? :confused:

Re: Something Awful forums
 

Its just another forum. Its full of goons.
They dont use the threads like us, almost all their games are in one big thread.
They dont play like us, lots of going ai and just-for-fun games.
In fact they hardly discuss the game before setting it up. Its made and full almost instantly.
They dont argue and fight like us.
They have their own forum, their own chat channel, and their own server.
Their games are direct-connect, not pbem.
They rarely use cbm.
And you have to pay to join.

Its great :)

Re: Something Awful forums
 

Its open again :)
