Bad Idea folder?

Post by paradise »

Shouldn't there be a folder for Bad Idea stuff, specially considering tomorrow's announcement?

Just like the FB group, this place will have to decide how to properly funnel the Bad Idea messaging out there, and I think it's own folder will keep the members here for some time, without getting in the way of "Valiant" conversation. I am pretty sure there is a BadIdeafans type website coming, too but for now this could be "the" place.

-Eh- I don't entirely disagree but at the same time that's like saying that there should've been a forum area just for Future Comics...... and then at that point there should be a forum area just for Defiant, etc. -oh wait-

Honestly, I'd say the best place for the Bad Idea stuff would simply be in the "other comics " area of the forums.

One could argue there is a big difference between those long gone companies and this one. I also predict a much larger volume of discussion that would overwhelm the Others folder

I'm sure as things progress, Greg will give it some consideration.

Really hoping not for another forum. I'm very unlikely to visit. A subfolder a la "Dark Key" sounds great though, and then take it from there.

hmm, just my 2c but this one is different because

a. its not a dead universe
b. it has so many people from Valiant it could be considered the Valiant 2018-2020 we never got
c. it already seems to have sparked so much discussion and with Valiant not being its 2012 self anymore this might actually get conversation back into the main part of the forums.

Honestly, this forum gets so little attention, that I wouldn't mind keeping most of the Valiant and Bad Idea chat in the General VALIANT Discussion section, but that's just me.

Agreed.

Doesn’t it speak volumes that books from another publisher gets more attention in the home of the hardcore Valiant fans? :? Got to be honest though I’m far more interested in what they’re doing that what we’re currently getting. Keep it in general discussion I reckon.
