The ZSB was overrun with newbies talking about nothing but Wind Waker, when it came out.

This is a Social board, not the Wind Waker board, and not the OoT board.

This is a social board, for people who like Zelda Games, and I've found these people occasionally like to discuss Zelda.

Sorry my mistake, I was mislead by the fact that about 90% of the topics on this board were Zelda related....

If you just want to socialize without seeing no Zelda topics EVER! Then just go to CE or The Forum. If your crazy go to RI or LUE.

Since the board has the Zelda name on it, it will always get dozens of Zelda topics every time a new game comes out.

You, the guys on the GTA social board and all the other guys in <insert name of video game here> social boards, should just get use to this kinda of stuff. It is one of those things that comes with posting on social boards like this one.

This must be incredibly frustrating for you, being such an old hand at this board. How dare all these people come to your Zelda board, and actually discuss Zelda. Not to mention the gall of all those moderators, moving topics about Zelda onto this board when you have clearly stated that this board is not for Zelda discussion.
I do apologise for my actions here, I guess I mistook this board for something is so obviously is not. Colour me embarrassed.

Usually experience would mean something, but apparently his experience tells him that the word 'Zelda' is not written currently in big letters at the top of my screen.
So his experience obviously doesn't help him in any way except as something for him to try and hold over my head.

What is so horrible about posting about Zelda at the gameplay boards? Seriously, no one is going to cooperate here with you anyway. One person is not going to come and change the dynamic of this board.

I think AV will thank you not to speak for him. He never said Zelda wasn't at the top of the board. It is there. See the word after it? It says "social" meaning this is a social board just like he said. Social boards are for people to talk. The majority of the people here do not speak of Zelda. Would you say it would be an intelligent decision to walk up to a group of people who don't talk about Zelda then try to start up a conversation about Zelda? This board isn't much different than that situation,

Oh that argument is to make the other guy feel bad, not to make your self look good. Doing that is just sad.

I think AV will thank you not to speak for him.
And he would like you to speak for him?

Of course he never literally said Zelda wasn't up there, but he has said this is not a board for Zelda discussion.
I didn't walk up to a group of people who don't like Zelda and started talking about it to them, I went to a Zelda Social Board, went into a message about the Zelda games, and got given a link telling me that i was not to discuss Zelda.
Bull****.

That line there, you are speaking for him.

When I claimed he said Zelda wasn't written up there, I was making a point as to him claiming this is not a board for Zelda discussion (which you cannot deny he has, check the topic title 'If you want to talk about Zelda, go elsewhere.'). Now the fact that Zelda is written up there clearly means this is a place where people may discuss Zelda, so thus my point stands.
I was making a point, not literally stating that he cannot see the word Zelda up there, you don't seem to be bring enough to comprehend this.
I'm better suited for lurking? Please, you seem to just be a simple strap on to this Viscen character, echoing his comments and defending him in his absence. I think it's you who should be lurking in this topic, at least until you have a point of your own to make.

If a topic isn't about gameplay and would be deleted from a regular Zelda game board, there's more than enough people to answer your question on the GameCube General board, which has turned into a Zelda board itself lately.

Really, I mean I'm not suggesting anyone has no right to be here, I'm just curious as to what would convince someone who didn't like Zelda to choose this board to socialize on?

Because of the people on it.

There are several immigrants from other boards that came here who aren't in any way affiliated with Zelda. I believe Quid may be one of them as he came from the HMSB.

"That line there, you are speaking for him."
So saying what I think is speaking for him? Read it again. "I think AV will thank you not to speak for him." No, I wasn't speaking for him. I was saying what I think he would say,

"Now the fact that Zelda is written up there clearly means this is a place where people may discuss Zelda, so thus my point stands."
And the word after zelda clearly means it's for whatever people damn well feel like discussing. Most people here are against dicussing it. Until a moderator comes around, guess how the board works?

"I was making a point, not literally stating that he cannot see the word Zelda up there,"
"but apparently his experience tells him that the word 'Zelda' is not written currently in big letters at the top of my screen."

They just want to be special and not post on a regular social board.

They want to feel different, like they belong somewhere...you know high school stuff.
