It's pretty much a mix of everything. It just wasn't working the way it was, and a lot of members no longer felt like they were welcome in that part of the forum. It's not necessarily anyone's fault, just the fact that there were weaknesses in the system that allowed unfortunate situations and problems to be an issue. It's a mix of spamming and people attacking each other and a lot of confusion about the point of some of the threads. Basically we now want to make the forum more discussion-friendly.

The system we had worked for a long time, but that section of the forum has grown a lot more active lately, and as the level of activity changed the system didn't work so well anymore. We're trying not to think of it as sad. The old system was great while it worked, but now it's time to try something new, so rather than thinking this is a negative thing because it didn't work, try to think of it as a positive thing that we're now doing a revamp, giving everyone a new system that hopefully will be both more member- and staff-friendly :wink:

Hope that made things a little clearer :)

Does that mean that our 800 page thread is gone?! :(

Could you possibly make a rule that people who are anti a character cannot post on an appreciation page for the character, being anti, and vice versa? Maybe that would clear it up; to me it seemed like the boundaries for what could & couldn't be said on those threads became blurred?

Thanks for clearing that up Eli. Looking forward to an improved thread. Hope it doesn't cause you too much headaches/work to sort it!

Can I just clarify in the Adelle Spoiler section it is okay to say about what is going to be coming up in the Aus episodes but you just don't want general chat about Adelle? Is it okay for someone in Aus to say what has happened that day in Aus, as would be a spoiler for UK and other nationalities? Or do you want it kept to what hasn't happened in Aus yet?

Just want to make sure we get it right for you!

Feel free to use the threads for what they were intended. Discussing spoilers in the spoilers threads and and the storylines in the episode discussion threads are fine. We're just asking that people don't start using other threads as substitutes for the Character/Actor section :wink:

Details on what's new will be made clear when the revamp is launched.
