Even after leaving for a few months, I am still finding a lot of debate about the Zodiac. While there may be some gizmo-lovers here who can love the Zodiac and GP32 equally, really this is a GP32 site and the Zodiac discussions are just the same stuff hashed over and over again.

Should we...

a ) Make a Zodiac sticky in Off-Topic Discussion with basic information on the Zodiac and where to go for more information/discussion, then lock all Zodiac posts...

B ) Have a Zodiac sticky for all Zodiac discussion and merge all Zodiac posts...

c ) Keep it the way it is now.
 
Someting tells me that if a sticky was made there would still be numerous zodiac posts. Because of this, I think i gotta go with b. Whether we like it or not, a lotta people wanna talk, at least a little bit, about the z. Honestly though, I personally dont care, a or b, as long as it is NOT c.
btw- these are great suggetions generalnmx, dont know why this hasnt been done already
 
This MIGHT sound crazy, but why not make a seperate forum designated to the Zodaic, without posts on the front page etc. It's logical as alot of GP32 users will eventually move on the the Z anyway, and instead of going over to the rather nasty community at zg they could chat with some 'lovely' Gp people.
 
It does sound crazy, and it is. Why the heck should we have a forum just for the Zodiac on the GP32x? All zodiac posts should just be in the off-topic forum. That's where the Zodiac discussion belongs.
 
Because as I say, it is the next natural step for most GP32ers. Maybe combine it with Gizmondo's, DS's, PSP's or whatever then to make "other handhelds" forum, as we get enough topics about them as it is.
 
Dude, that's not exactly the best attitude to have in the GP32 community. Just ask your questions and stuff on the ZG boards.
 
It's not really my attitude, it's just what I believe to be logical. I'm not trying to offend anyone, and I have no intentions of purchasing a Zodiac, however *alot* of GP32er's will.
 
Well, then they should discuss it in the ZG boards. It's just not supportive to have a forum for Zodiac because you think a lot of GP32ers will move over to it.
 
No. Zodiac users and 'want-to-have-zodiac-because-it-is-cool' users can go and mess on zodiac boards. This is strictly GP32 forum and all zodiac related posts will go to off topic.

I'm pro your idea :) having an off-topic for other consoles/handhelds would be the best solution imho ;)

the best attitude is always a friendly attitude..

Why the heck should we do that? These other handhelds aren't GP32 related, so threads concerning them should belong in the Off-Topic Discussion Forum!

I don't know... I call it community building... that's why 90% of the people come here...

I'm not saying the sticky is a bad idea, I'm just saying that a console related subboard would be good for the community, and great fun too. it took me 3 months before I dared to speak out in the Off-topic section, it looks so much like an elite club (not saying it is), 90% of the ppl won't dare to post their stuff in there...

and, plus, a console subboard would be less work for the mods, you don't honestly believe ppl will post about the Z in the off-topic section? They simply don't dare to do that.
