Some fool very nice moderator merged the different Dominions 4 threads in the strategy forum.

While I understand that those threads (7 or so for the same game) were cluttering the strategy forum, merging them was the worst possible action, just look at this mess:
http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/inde...-season-2-submit-your-turn-muty.96285/page-79

Each different ongoing game really does need its own thread for diplo, vocal rampages, requests, OP for links/names/nations, etc.

So the suggestion is to create a subforum in the strategy forum for these things.

Maybe the Playground could be repurposed to be for both LPs and multiplaying.

Solid plan, but may run into the same problem, of 6-7 Dominion threads blotting out the LPs, especially for newcomers who won't be able to distinguish MP and LP threads easily.

I see no reason why strategy cant have its own mp subforum, after all we had the same situation with EU4 multiplayer. Many problems - one solution.

One could even say final solution.

Let me suggest a compromise that'll please everyone:

1) Move MP game threads (Dominion, Bloodbowl etc) to Playground
2) Ban tyrannosaurus rex

How about a subsection within Playground for MP games (no matter if strategy or not)?
That way they would not clutter the Let's Plays and whatever else is there. Or the other way around.

I don't care that much about exact details, but Dominions threads do need a place where they can live in peace and without fear.

As an innocent bystander and avid lurker of all of the Dominions play threads I wholeheartedly would like to see a sub-forum off of Strategy games for current on-going games.

I think that is the logical and easiest location for such a thing.

I already miss my Dominions 4 drama :(

I put a new subforum under the MMO Board.
Please also move the dom4 thread there and undo the merger.

Merges can't be undone. Find an archive of the original threads, save it, and get a moderator to disassemble the merged thread back into its component parts. :M
Really? There's no way for admins to quickly revert changes made by an incompetent mod?

I always thought there was a revert button or some shit, so that DU wouldn't have too much trouble if someone tried to LARP Mama's Gang.

Well, the DarkOne forbade it being done, How is this still even an issue?
