Hello, after looking at some old posts and clicking a few links, I decided that we should form a history of armor games.

Would the greatest, oldest, and most worthy step forward to help in the quest of knowledge? The bounty will be plentiful.

I've been reading the above posts and, why are we making a forum? Weren't we making a wikia?


You mean a wiki site? Well we are, just one with a forum for admins. Its so we don't have to spam up this thread while working on the site.

TheDude42, eventually, if we get more people involved, you'll be in charge of editing other people's posts in the wiki, as well as making your own. You feeling up to doing that at a certain point?

Don't you guys think you're going a tad far? Why not just make a history here &now?

We want to be able to go somewhere where it is neatly organized. And also in great detail.
If we do it in a thread, it will confuse people and it just won't be pretty.
Another reason we're going this far is because we can.

It's being coded and the such by crimson right now, so no, not yet. If you want to help with us, just say to me which team you want to be in.

We have facts team, editing team, administration team, and coding team.

...I wish, but finding the right site is a bit of a pain in the neck. The site I am looking for can not be found and I have yet to find any appropriate alternatives. The only site I can think of that would probably work is possibly the site that we used to make the original Armor Wiki(wetpaint.com) The problem with most sites is the lack of a forum, or other features we are probably going to need.

Coding the whole thing from scratch wouldn't even work in this situation since I don't know how to code in php to make a forum. Basically I think it might be best at this point if we just take the original sites design and start from scratch with it. Is that alright with you guys?

OK. We'll use the same template, only not make it sucky like the last one.
And should we link a forum that meets our needs to it?

If you mean a forum outside of the original site...then yeah I guess if its necessary. For right now the site itself has private messaging and an open forum though.

OK, can you do group chat with the PMing?
Even if it does, we should make a seperate forum, anyways. General news would be posted on the open forum.
