MetaPost comments and questions about the messageboards and other parts of EN World. If you have a problem, this is where to go. Moderator email addresses are posted here.
Hivemind isn't irc. It's simply a thread where ENWorlders pop in and out and make comments on whatever the current topic is, or ask questions not necessarily dealing with rpgs. It's basically just a community thread where we talk about anything we want as long as we mind Eric's Grandma.
Originally posted by ArthurQ so all of a sudden you call irc a hivemind? I idle in there all the time.
No, it's not on the IRC, it's a thread (and only ONE thread at any given time) where you can post all sort of comments be it role.playing related or not. However we still abide by the guidelines for posting on the boards, though (ie no politics, religion, etc).
The Hivemind is simple a thread that people post to in more of a way that they post to a chat. It was started one year ago quite by accident when a few of us started posting to a thread in meta during Gen Con. The boards were very slow then because most of the people seemed to be at the convention. The HM threads are usually silly, but they can be anything.
Originally posted by Imperialus So sorta like Nutkinland except less eliteist?
Don't go on Nutkinland much do you?
Elitist? Hardly. I've been posting there for quite a while now and found the community to be open and receptive to different viewpoints and opinions. If you spend too much time in the Angry Chair though you will get slapped (and called Sally).
