Apparently I already... had an account... with pro boards? o.O And was already logged in?? Except I don't know my password??? Luckily Chrome remembered it???? But I foresee this being an issue down the road :lol:

 

I'm "Artemis" at the BSN board.

 

Every time I joined one of the new pro board BSN alternatives, I thought I was making a new password for each place but I think that each time I was replacing the last pro board password I was making. So now I have a lot of pro board passwords and only one of them is right.  :P  The entire mess was confusing me so I'm going to try not to think about it but may have to do so someday.  :wacko:  :lol:

OK, I've signed up with bsn.boards.net (the dwarves are moving into the Tapster's Tavern, we finally get to name our thread ourselves.) Would someone mind reposting the links to the three forums that are being set up, please? I'm not sure I'm finding the right ones, and so much has been posted, I'm getting confused.

Here's the link to the networking thread that lists the various forums and also has a description of each of them. The very first post has all the info.

Delurking because I have a few things to say.

First celebrating something closing because you hate it is really a hardhearted thing to do. As bad as this forum has gotten...people are hurting and they deserve to be respected.

But I do agree there are some horribly toxic people here. Its one of the reasons I stopped posting.

A great majority of this forum was taken hostage not only by racist, misogynistic, homophobic trolls but by people with entitlement issues that think BioWare owes them.

So let me just say this…..

Do you want to know how many people stopped posting at this board? Do you want to know how many people felt intimidated by you? Do you want to know how many people were put off by your constant miserable attitude?

Do you consider it acceptable for the developers to receive threats and harassment??

You hate the game…we freaking get it. But you had no right to make others feel miserable for enjoying the game. That’s called being selfish.
And if people do not share a fraction of your world view…you label them a troll.

You say you care about equality, fighting oppression, etc? Aside from sitting behind a computer and passively aggressively be condescending to others have you ever done anything in real life to help change the world?

Have you ever knocked on doors to get petitions signed? Have you ever volunteered at a phone bank? Have you ever volunteered for anything? Have you ever been arrested at a protest?

I’ve experienced all of that. I also spoke out at my local city council meeting and was part of a group that helped get an extremely bigoted and transphobic councilman removed from office.

That’s what TRUE ACTIVISM is

I still remember when DAI came out and you said Cullen should not have been available for anybody since you could not have him your way. PLEASE tell me... How is that not considered selfish?

Thats all I have to say.

Just thought you should know how many people were put off by your attitude as well felt uncomfortable by the cliquish nature of this thread.


Considering that activists rarely hit the mark on what a bigot actually is, I find this attitude of gathering people to pressure a company into firing someone completely disgusting.

That is what raging radicals do.

And for the record, if you took off your clothes in public or damaged anyone's property then those police officers were justified in arresting you.

Thanks! I went ahead and registered for RDA and Fextra for the time being, though I'm probably going to avoid Fextra if I can. A bit too commercial for my tastes...

In what way? I'm not seeing any ads or anything, though I do have adblock.

 

I guess I'll sign up for them, too, although I can't commit to remembering to check all of them all the time :lol:

I have similar questions. But the platform looks robust and at a minimum will preserve our legacy here... Even if our new thread evolves elsewhere. But you have to sign up ASAP for your account stats to transfer.

*waves frantically*

 

I just wanted to stop in to say that I hope I will see some of you on the new alternative forums being made. The Cullen Thread was my home when I first started posting here and I really did feel like it was such a special space filled with beautiful and amazing people. It was the first time that I ever got to share my enthusiasm with anything to do with Dragon Age. I got up at half four in the morning to watch Pax and shared all the excitement with you, and I still remember how much my cheeks used to ache from how much I'd smile and laugh while joining in on conversation here. I will never forget how happy you guys made me, I will never forget how much easier you all made the wait for release simply by just being yourselves, so thank you! 

 

<3

From the fextralife organizer:
"I would like to give everyone the option of continuing your discussions with your posting history/post count intact. You get a (f)extra life!"

It will apparently also link you to all your old posts when they import them.

Ohh I don't really mind about the first part but that second part could be useful.

Okay I'm about to sign up for Fextra but is there a special process to go through? B/c it's asking me for a whole new username and password.

um the sign up is like the others. It doesn't know about you yet, so register as a new person and create a username. Then you need to go to the thread Spirit Vanguard linked above and tell them your username here and the new one you choose.

I signed up on Fextralife as well. Same name as on here. It's my alternate identity so I'm glad it was available. I look forward to seeing you all there. But if you'd like to follow me elsewhere, I'm on Twitter and Facebook under the same name. Most social media sites that's what my name is unless I couldn't get it. Or it's some variation thereof. On my day off I'll have to make a list of all my accounts for those interested in keeping in touch. So sad to hear the BSN is closing down though. =/ But new adventures await! Catch you later ladies and gentlemen!

Ohhhh mannnn.... I was checking my notifications and meant to click on the link of my post that someone liked but accidentally hit the Cullen thread title so it took me to the first page and I was slammed with nostalgia! The thread header.... The rules.... The collection of fic main post.... Back from a time when the thread was shiny and new. I got a little weepy for a bit there. I know I don't post much here lately, but I'm gonna miss this place. Just knowing it was here and I could pop in and read whatever was going on, it was a comfort - like coming home, ya know? I understand the decision to close it down. But I also don't. Like what harm is it to leave it up? Just because it's not bioware's preferred means of communication with fans anymore (and have they been in here recently? It hasn't been that for a long time anyway) doesn't mean it's useless. Bah. I'm bummed.
