Default How often do you read the PBW forums?

The quick response dumbluck got to finding a replacement player on PBW got me to thinking, how many people that read Shrapnel's forums also read PBW forums? (Or, more accurately, I'm curious how many do not.) So, how often do you read the PBW forums, if ever?

I only check them before a game starts to discuss the setup, or if a game stops to check for related news.

Do you mean the general PBW forums, or the individual game forums?

The general PBW forums I never check. The individual forums I take a look at once every day or two. If it's a really active forum then I check more often, if not then a lot less. It really depends on the ammount of activity.

I check the game forums sometimes, when I send in a turn. The general forums I only visit when Shrapnel is down .

Default Re: How often do you read the PBW forums?

I check them at least one every day or two and when I get a turn.

Sent a message to someone via email and game forum NOT to colonize a world in my home system that I could breathe, it even had ruins on it... The prick went and did it anyway.

He doesn't leave in a year I'll kill it. And then him. Insolent upstart.

Did you maybe send the warning in-game?

Have you considered he might be ignoring it? I mean he might have heard you're request and decided to not follow your direction and accept teh consequences. If i were you i would wipe him off the face of the galaxy (assuming its easy enough, otherwise just burn him in effigy for now).

I tend to try to check every other day or so, but then I'm an admin However, I'm more lax about the game forums themselves except during the initial setup.

And Quikngruvn, that's my favorite single quote from HHGG.

I check the Game forums every day. I check the General forum every now and then. Especially since I am at my limit for the number of active games that I am Playing.
