Do you remember why you were in there in the first place?
Because we had issues with the current forum, and people were scattered all over the place.
And somehow you assume that your initial impression of something is the only way it ever is, without even -actually- having partaken in "The skype group"
It's not about quality posting, and never was.
Surely any potential issues that were before couldn't have been remedied by now either, seeing as you have a complete and utter understanding of how things work in there.

Yes, it is bad thing! If I don't use Skype, I will never hear anything that goes on in there, outside some vague memories of an enlightening conversation! It is also a bad thing because it is taking up too much of their communication, routing it through a method, again, most of us will never see! I mean, where the FUCK is Corosar? I have heard ONE POST from her here, with no explanation as to WHY SHE HAS ABANDONED THE NEXUS RP. THERE IS AN ENTIRE CHARACTER IN PARTIAL GRIDLOCK BECAUSE SHE HASN'T POPPED UP IN THE LAST MONTH. ENTIRE OTHER CHARACTERS HAVE DISAPPEARED TOO, INCLUDING GONZO'S, EVEN THOUGH HIS CHARACTERS ARE THE REASON WHY WE ARE ON A FUCKING HIVE WORLD.
WE HAVE A PROBLEM. DENYING THAT THIS PROBLEM EXISTS MAKES IT WORSE. I DON'T GET WHY YOU CAN'T FUCKING SEE IT.
THIS FORUM IS A PROBLEM. SKYPE IS A PROBLEM. NEXUS RP IS A PROBLEM. HOW ABOUT WE FUCKING FIX IT IN A WAY TECHNOLOGICALLY FRIENDLY TO THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY.
Gonzo hasn't been using Skype, he's been busy with
life. You know, SCHOOL.
Coro is TIRED of the Nexus' bullshit.
I'm tired of this bullshit.
We don't 'see the issue' because you make a mountain out of a moderately sized hill.
And you can't be a part of literally everything. You know this. Trying to make it 'fair' by cutting out the most viable method of communication for others just because some can't connect to it is selfish to the extreme.

the issue here isn't post quality
it's just the metric fuckton of conversations that happen at once
people prefer skype because it's just
easier
conversations are quick and short
compared to here when you get walls of text followed by pictures of whatever which makes scrolling through the whole goddamn thing a chore
it puts people off
just have more than one thread
if people can't get on of here because of "connection issues" then that's probably your fault for using seraphimlabs rather than forumotion or other forum hosts that people actually know

The preface "when I was there" is of supreme importance to the context of my statement. It does not imply that I have total knowledge of what goes on in your nexus 1.5, merely that what knowledge I do have is amusingly contradictory to what you claim makes it superior to 1.0.

This just highlights how little you know of the skype group. Corosar isn't even in it, and gonzo is never active there (in the most literal way, i think it's been weeks since gonzo even said anything at all in the group).
So, getting rid of skype would resolve this how?

SO HERE WE GO. SOME OF US USE SKYPE BECAUSE THE FORUM DOESN'T WORK. SOME OF US USE THE FORUM BECAUSE SKYPE DOESN'T WORK. A FEW OF US MANAGE TO WORK WITH BOTH, PROBABLY BECAUSE THEY SOLD THEIR SOUL TO THE GOD OF TECHNOLOGY (AKA THE UNIVAC IN THE SKY).
NEITHER ONE IS GOING TO SOLVE THE OTHER'S PROBLEMS. WE CAN FIND A WAY TO SOLVE ALL OF THEM, BUT IT MEANS, YOU KNOW,
COMMUNICATING AND WORKING TOGETHER.
*walks in and sees whats going on walks right back out*
Even I haven't gotten this worked up over an online community in years. I'm moderately proud of otter.

pipe down chachi
that leaves us with three options
we all emigrate to something that
everybody can use, e.g. the irc
we just go back to the starbound forums because everything seemed to work there
or we just call it a day and disband

Or we could, you know, do some tech support on why people can't load a forum with no active CSS but have no problem with "NOMNOMNOM BANDWIDTH AND MEMORY" Skype.

I don't claim it superior, even though it clearly is, because I say so, right?
I think you'll find that the nazis are the people running the bank in this case, Surge.

You're making other people talking amongst themselves affect you by feeling left out of the fun, so yes, affected.
You wouldn't have use for that form of communication even if you were in it, so it shouldn't matter to you.
And nothing happens, that's the thing. It's just people. Talking.
Because they want to.

DEAR GOD WHY IS THE MOST
HOSTILE PERSON ON THIS FORUM THE ONLY ONE AGREEING WITH ME? MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE HIS ANGER BOILS OFF THE ILLUSIONS OF SANCTITY.
BUT YES, I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE SKYPE FRAG. I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF TOPICS GET PUSHED AROUND OR THE QUALITY OF THE POSTS OR WHAT TIME PEOPLE ARE WHERE OR EVEN IF THEY'RE THERE OR IF I CAN EVEN KNOW WHAT PEOPLE HAVE SAID THERE.
Calm the fuck down before I start handing out day-long bans. This is ridiculous.

probably because seraphimlabs is slow as fuck and nobody even uses it
if you google seraphimlabs we're like the only forum that shows up
