Bring Back Forum Games

I never got why Forum Games was locked with the rest of Off-Subject. Of all the Off-Subject boards, it was the least problematic. It was beneficial in that it kept the forum interesting during boring times. I think it should be brought back.

The hope is to eventually have getting-to-know-you-style threads again.

With all due respect, what the heck is taking so long? I mean, I can understand that you have stuff going on in your lives and can't manage the forum 24/7, but I'm an administrator on a forum that uses identical software to this one, and I know that making a new forum doesn't take any more than about a minute. Unlocking the old forum would take even less time if you left it as-is, but I can understand why you wouldn't want to do that. Or do you just not think the community is ready for off-topic forums at the moment?

I'm sorry if I come across as rude, I'm honestly just curious.

Yeah, I miss Forum Games for the same reason as Gravey. And I would like to see a return of GTKY, too.

Well, it's not a technical problem. We know that the forum is less awesome without it, but for the time being that's the way it is.

thats the best you can come up with? at least make up a phoney story so we can be convinced you are actually trying, when you say something like "thats the way it is" it makes you sound like a fool

Um, it's so that for the moment the talk is mainly about what goes on the wiki, I think.

And High Skool Artist, every post I've seen you make is either saying in general that H*R or the forum, mainly the former, sucks. Why bother watching/staying if you feel that way?

Given that this topic has apparently become a place for incivility (including a post I recently deleted), and that the original question has already been answered, this thread appears to have outlived its usefulness.
