The good thing, on the other hand, of having a member only board, is the
fact that no longer will we have to deal with spammers who have nothing
to do with our game. I dont think to many people would object to our being
IC as long as have pics of our ships and stuff and keep it to this thread
only. Thats my opinion anyway, and I do plan on moving my board here soon.
It will not only help make stuff easier for me because i wont have to check
multiple boards and can instead do more important things. So, basically what
I'm saying, is I am at least moving to lugnet for my United Forces and Basher
Sector board, and as long as I start providing more pics this I doubt will
be a problem.
