Rant subforum

  Sub-Forum or not I still believe people are already using Bean Rua, and Everything Else to rant (depending on the subject).
  
  I don't think adding a new section for it would bring something good to Nation. I mean people who rants about mabinogi "usually" provide argument to start a debate so it's not useless rants in the mabinogi section since it's a discussion; I'm also pretty sure they do the same in the Vindictus section. As for general rants, as I stated before Bean Rua/Everything else is already mostly used by most member who visit those parts.
  
  I'm afraid it'd turn out to be like DFOsource rant where people mostly were annoyed with PvP/Randoms so they made a lot of topic there, until the point where they made a rule against such topic in the rant sub-forum.

  It'd be utterly useless.

  It wouldn't do much, I think someone suggested this a while back. Unintelligible rants can go in BR while serious ones can be in everything else or library. Game specific rants can be in their appropriate game section as long as they aren't too spammy.

  If you need to rant that badly, just make a blog or make friends with a punching bag.

  Agree.
  
  Some people on this forum could seriously use something like a private blog to rant and rant and rant...

  ^That.
  
  I also feel like a forum section specifically for the angry and displeased may cause more drama, and that's unnecessary.

  So, if we see a rant thread say...something like this
  How should we report it? are those threads reportable in the first place?
• Skye wrote on 2011-07-11 05:29
  I don't think it's reportable.
  I see a little bit of discussion taking place, soooo...yeah.
  It isn't really spammy, imo.
• Hiccup wrote on 2011-07-11 07:44
  It should be hidden like Rua's house that way only a select group of people can see it.

  So, "HAY GUIZE I HAD A ****TY DAY BECAUSE NEXON, PLEAE FEEL PITY FOR ME" Threads are perfectly valid mabinogi related discussions? Really!? Because that's what that thread is about.
  
  So If I post a "HAY GUISE, I CAN'T FEEL SATISFIED UNLESS I HAVE CYBER WITH RANDOMS ON MABI, BUT THEN NEXON" thread and it generates discussion, would that be a perfectly valid mabinogi related thread? How about a "I was doing nothing mabi related, nothing at all, but then nexon and I lol'd"? I mean, with the randomness and the lulz at the end and because it has nexon at the title I'm going to assume that's a perfectly valid mabinogi discussion thread, right?
  
  Those kind of threads shouldn't really be on the mabi talk section, but hey, that's just my opinion as a somewhat regular user.
  
  @Hiccup, that was pretty much what I suggested, yeah.

  Imo it would be like Rua House
  when it's first added many people would post in it but then the hype would die down and it would be a near-dead if not fully dead section.
  In other words it would be useless.

  Maybe not a hidden section or a new forum entirely. How about a new sub-forum on the mabi talk section for mabi off-topic? leave the serious threads on mabi talk and post your mabi rants and nexon mishaps on the off-topic land.
  
  Oh hey, found a suggestion like this here and that didn't get far.

  You know, if you have a problem with a thread, then just report it and say what you think about it. If a staff member finds something wrong with it or agrees with what you say in the report, they'll take care of it.
  Also, if you dislike the thread, don't read it. No one's forcing you.

  That's a pretty bad cop out for a mod.
  Since the OP has left and I'm pretty much the only one still defending this suggestion I'll leave it at this, seeing as it isn't going anywhere. I'm taking Skye's word and won't report threads like that since they seem to be on-topic. I expected better of mabination since It seemed to me as an alternative for the official mabinogi forums, but seeing as we even have someone who "eats posts" now, I guess it's pretty much the same now.

  Like I said, you can report them if you want and the staff will take it from there.
  
  But pretty much half the staff has already said this probably won't happen.

  Or alternatively, you can use Bean Rua, since that place was designed for just about anything. Just because it's about Mabinogi/Vindictus doesn't mean that you can't talk about it in there.
  
  I know it's a little scary for people that don't leave the Mabinogi/Vindictus sections, but it's not that bad of a place.

  Bean Rua encompasses all of your needs. :awesome:
  
  Or you could throw it in Everything Else if you're looking for actual advice or discussion.
  
  If it's just to vent and spew out negative words and possible curse words, again... Bean Rua. :awesome:
