Damn. I'm glad you made it in the eleventh hour. Way to find out, right?

 

Yeah, me too. I found out from a comment on a thread on beamdog's forum.

 

It's not as bad for me as it would be if I had been very active recently, but I was planning on being more active while I replayed the Dragon Age games. I guess I'll find somewhere else to discuss Dragon Age things after this.

It's too bad that the networking thread is the only pinned topic without a Bioware label on it.

Yeah, for wanting us to network to other social media outlets, they've not really gone out of their way to give any particular venues to actually head to. It seems far more like handing someone an Atlas and saying "My location is in there, you figure it out..."

 

It's almost like this was a rash decision they didn't actually think fully through... but it can't be, surely?

[Spirit Vanguard]

I guess I'll be waiting for a while, with undivided attention... The assumption is BioWare's midnight, but, who knows?

 

 

Party on, friends.

Well, the bulk of the active community and the popular threads have moved to http://bsn.boards.net. It's a very good community we have going, when you're ready.

That's not your only option. There's http://fextralife.com/forums/f95/ where this current forum is being reproduced. You can even claim your current posts and post total. There's a pinned thread explaining how.

There are other options, as well. There's a nice list here: https://forum.biowar...between-forums/

I just thought of something that is really going to suck. When I inevitably do come back here before the erasure in October, and I start poking through the ashes, I'm going to find some awesome posts. I always do. I won't be able to Like them! Damn it!

I wonder if we can still PM folks until October.

 

That would be creepy, like a real ghost town.

At least they've been dropping in and participating in the new communities. It's been fun having them around, with no pressure or expectations.

Yeah, I'm sure I'm going to end up doing this too and I'm already regretting it.

Well, I guess it's time to say goodbye forever BSN

This would be cool, since I PM'd a lot of absentee members as this month passed. I don't expect many will come back in time, but even one returning and replying would be great.

[AlanC9]

Hey, did I miss it, or has nobody posted that damn Semisonic song yet?

Bioware have been actively participating and paying attention to the new communities?

 

Huh, wonder what stopped them from doing it here? They had plenty of opportunities in the last two years...

Bye, Nefla. I wish we could've bonded before the last day. You know where to find us when Andromeda exceeds your expectations.

I might have already begun naming the tumbleweeds.

One dev explained it, but I'm way too tired to find the where and when. In this forum, they are often treated as "BioWare", not as people. They are viewed as moderators by some, developers by others, authority figures by still others. The reality is that none of them are mods, excluding Conal's powers. They wield no powers or authority here, and generally not at BioWare, either.

The pressure of dealing with that "BioWare" tag by your name is pretty major, at times, on these forums. My explanation won't do it justice, but his certainly did. The devs on the new BSN have none of that. They are just one of us, hanging out to talk about the games, or whatever the off-topic forum had to offer. It's a much better environment, thanks to past experiences here.

As the saying goes, the few ruin it for us all. That's basically what has happened here. Not all of the devs wanted to bail; but the pressure of being the only one around, or one of two or three, is pretty high. It was easier when the relationship was more even and shared, as in the good old days.

I hope that's not too rambling. I'm getting fatigued from my all day BSN camping expedition.
