Does Anyone Know What's Happened To Nothingland?

The Damnation Army?

How... B-movie.

More like a bad TV series.

Hunt and ye shall find. Wouldn't it be silly for them to close the old site and not leave any way for people to find the new one? That's be downright evil, I'd say.

This forum so needs a sardonic smiley.

Follow up: Found it, had a look around. If this is the best evil can do Armageddon's gonna consist of nannies rounding up small children and sending them to their rooms.

(The sound you hear is Professor Moriarty rototilling the cemetary.)

hmm, time to start poking around...

I don't get it.

What's the deal with the site in the first place?

Any background on it? Is it like RPG.net or ENWorld or something?

Is that sarcasm, or honest curiosity?

Honest curiosity. My reputation must be following me...

 

[diaglo]

many of the regulars there were regulars here way back when...

The short answer is that Nothingland was originally a spinoff site where people could go to do all the things they cannot do here. You can cuss, flame others, talk about sex, religion, pr0n, and (depending on which incarnation of the board) post pr0n. The community is tiny compared to here, so everyone is pretty tight. As a result, it takes a while for Noobs to start being accepted rather than flamed for being new. There are quite a few people now who never had anything to do with ENWorld, but the number of ENWorlders or former ENWorlders still outnumbers the others. Its not a place to be if you can't take some heat. You need thick skin if you become a regular. So to summarize, it's the seedy after hours lounge for ENWorlders, or as I like to think of it, gamers behaving badly.

It's a frat party gone bad.
