People won't be satisfied with just that, they want an entire section, that's the issue. If they'd be fine with just the thread, this topic wouldn't exist in the first place...
...really, what scares me the most is that if the section ever gets done, there will be an escalation of requests... there already have been...

I understand that, but unless the administration wants to put in that effort to make it [or if the administration is ever going to acknowledge this thread's presence], it's probably the best we'll ever get ever, and I'd think it'd be better than nothing.

I'm not speaking for the mob, I'm just saying it's a better alternative and compromise. IF they don't like it, then, at least they have SOMETHING.

Hell, same goes for the issue with the introductions forum. Why not just put a sticky thread in the General AMV section that says "Introduce Yourselves Here!" and leave a little form for them to fill out, if the administration/mods don't want to deal with a whole new section.

What I think it really boils down to is this. We just need an answer of some kind from somebody that has the authority to decide the fates of these two intertwined issues. Then the threads can be locked and our lives can continue onward. :up:

it's a bit of a hassle, and that still doesn't provide a convenient way of getting a little feedback from people, which i think is the main thing we want out of it.

feedback from friends and other respected members* my bad.
joining a whole new community is an even bigger hassle, and who needs it, i just got used to the Org anyway.

i know we can just pm people, i know there are ways around it, but it'd be a lot more convenient/better/cooler to have a LITTLE something here.

Oh Jesus Christ, this all just seems to come down to the mods and administration being fucking lazy as far as I can see. NO, THAT'D TAKE US 5 MINUTES TO DO AND IF IT WENT BELLYUP IT'D TAKE A WHOLE MINUTE TO REMOVE.

There have been multiple upsides stated to why we could do this, and no real downside.

To be fair, this thread's been up for months, though. Pretty much anything that could be said for or against the subforum has been said by this point. Obviously, we don't know what's going on over on the mod side, but an official answer would be nice. Or at least a "we are discussing the option".

Well, a decision can't be made without having a discussion, and yeah, sorry about that - with several other priorities behind the scenes and the current admin changeover, it just hasn't been officially discussed yet. Hopefully that will change shortly - again, sorry for any delays, it's just that mod meeting time is limited and there are always very high-priority items to discuss before additional features like this.
