There's also http://bsn.boards.net/ Nothing fancy for now, but run by Cyonan (someone I'm willing to put my trust in). And boy, that help for MEAMP that might come from that forum!
Signed up on this one today. I like the format....simple and uncluttered. Plus lots of familiar....er, faces? Anyway, got to start somewhere, I guess.
"Simple and uncluttered" is one way to put it. Barely has anything on it. It has a fair number of members, but I question how many of them are active. How long has that that board been up?
RDF is buzzing. Give the other bsn board some time. Right now I'm only looking at these two and I'm mostly chalking it up at RDF. Several others are already making marks on the usual stuff on DA and ME.

If some people didn't like DAF because of the green, I feel the same way about the bland blueness of BSN Boards @_@
Although I'm aware the twitter thread has moved there....
Also, BSN has a rule about no posting of pornographic material; doesn't specify on the written word... Which I'm chewing on whether that's a total deal breaker for me, because I was totally swuee about the Eros section on DAF.
Fextra has a lot of rules. 
which also include no obscene/nude photos.

I kinda like the green actually. Has a very Dalish feel to it.

I actually don't really care about the look (though Cyonan is taking suggestions for possible themes). For me, there are two things: right people and not gonna lie, Twitter Thread (aka my second home). Seeing how almost all "important" Twitter Thread people are there (saw Hrungr, Biofan, LadySif and PCthug, missing only Elite Pinecone), I'm sold.
And themikefest already set up both What Did You Do threads.

Actually, most of those I saw are known for being active. And what Melbella said, it's really new.
Not saying it's the right choice, it's just feels the best suited for me.

I just posted an image of my Inquisitor from a playthrough I started about a month ago in the thread on bsn.boards.net
A bit more on topic that my other posts today: I finally got a Trials reward and was very excited to open the Special Shipment chest and roll ... another Great Bear Sigil.
That's the fifth one this PT.
RNG is just f-ing with me now.
Did I reload and try again? Of course! I got an Inferno Pact Belt eventually, very happy.

Last year, at one point of time, I concluded that this game knows what we wants... and gives us the exact opposite.
Proof number... Ummm...
I actually lost track.
So, as I mentioned in another thread, there's a pretty clean dividing line between sites that are trying to acquire existing BSN content as well as users, and sites only acquiring users. That tells me that I'll need to visit at least two different sites if most of the people go one way and the content goes another.
Fextralife seems the leading contender for acquiring BSN content, though ViSeiRa's brand new site is also in the running. Fexelea has taken the step of asking Bioware directly for access to the content data, which I think is an important action. Bioware will probably say no, but that puts Fextralife on the board as being serious about hosting BSN content. Whether or not just scraping everything now and asking forgiveness later will be the better strategy remains to be seen.
Anyway, today's picks for me are pbBSN for people and fextralife for old BSN content. I reserve the right to change my mind daily.
I found it soothing to immediately find a place to go; DAF was strongly dragon age, had nice art, and had no bad rumors about it's creator. that first 36 hours of listed options were Cass Saturn, Top Shelf, Vroom Vroom, and DAF with conversations about making Fextra.
So, I immediately set up shop at DAF, posting threads I wanted to keep and have in the new home.
So far what I'm staying for?
I do seem to be becoming more entrenched in DAF the further I go, posting and formatting and such, because I don't want to put effort into a 2nd contender unless they really are going to be the "Other 50%".
Cyonan's BSN looks better today with the Darker blue.
On topic:
What did I do in the DA Universe? I am learning more and more about Dwarven lore as I read through the Dwarf Support thread, which bodes well later for my Dwarven play throughs because I'll be legitimately immersed. 
I've already read some stuff about the Brosca Origins that greatly amuse me.
I started a 2H Templar run today. Templar is the only specialization I haven't yet played, because Cassandra was a team regular in the majority of my Inquisitor's adventures. I think it's going to be fun having two Templar skilled team members fighting enemies, just like two Necromancers (Nymisa and Dorian) in my last PT
It feels good to be back on DAI after not playing the game for a while. I'll post a bit here while we still have time, however, most of my updates will be at the new home base. Still deciding where, because I was at uBSN at first, but it wasn't a good fit for me personally.
I finally finished Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts-though I'm not sure I like the way it turned out. No finished sidequests, didnt have enough hallas to open the palace room, not even all 30 secrets. My post-negotiation spared Gaspard, but he was exiled from Orlais. I hope I still end up with Leliana as Divine, but far from a sure thing.
I did get the Belle of the Ball achievement. Not much, but I'll take what I can get. That and Florianne's remains doing community service-ha! There is a bright side after all.
I'll finish off a few more companion quests before heading off to the Arbor Wilds.

Truth. When I rift mage, I usually have all 3 gizmos for the two other specs before I ever see a venatori tome.

The first PT, I played a mage. Had no concept of the specializations at all. Why did I become a Necro? Well, I seemed to already have all the parts to become one...and I thought I'd get a cool undead sidekick.
not so much.
I'm not going to post any more snippets in this thread. It's going to PBBSN and RDAF.
The former is definitely uncluttered, neat and tidy. I'm leaning more towards it; I see more activity for the MEMP too.. Autumn WItch is doing her best to make RDAF welcoming to everyone. I'll see what she comes up with for the darker theme but I'll definitely continue to visit the board as there're funny materials to see over there.
I tried Multiplayer for the first time today!
Gilli Chan played with me.
Reminds me that I need to get a new headset. Typing stuff during battle be crazy.
I like it and don't like it. It reminds me of how people have argued that our PC should have been working for the Quiz and not actually been the Quiz.
-----------------------------------
So the Twitter thread is going to: http://bsn.boards.net/
The Blanketfort has also re polled, and they are going there as well.
And there is a rumor that at least one Bioware Developer made an account on there as well. (Hi, Irony)
I also looked at the numbers as of Aug 3 12:30am:
popping in to pass on the memo in case its of any relevance to anyone
The Solas Thread has officially moved to Cyonan's BSN - Solas Thread 2 - Electric Boogaloo.
It's official:
The Dwarf support thread is also having merela make a new thread there for them called Tapsters Tavern.
I know I already saw other character threads there.
BSN board's members have shot up by about 200 in the last two days. 
Retour en haut
