There is no crime in calling a forum "official" when there is no alternative. The official is merely just an advertising gimmick and nothing more. No where on these forums does any moderator, or the owner, act as if they are representing EA directly. Until I see that, then I think the accusations against these forums are still invalid.
I don't quite understand why people are trying to extort, and manipulate, Crimson in trying to get what they want. Your rights to advertise or even post on here is out of the sole courtesy of Crimson since she owns it.

I don't think this has anything much to do with EA. Instead, it's more that this forum is generally for the entire Renegade community and people would come in here thinking all interests should be represented. We can't exactly blame them for having that reasonable expectation. *shrugs*

Agreed. We are still at the mercy of Crimson since she owns it. I think she has been more than fair to a lot of people who have used this forum. Just go through all the threads/posts and you will find people who probably should be removed from these forums but are not.

well that's interesting...
so that means this isn't an official renegade forum and it's just n00bstories2. I think most people/communities won't have posted here if they knew that, and it's also interesting that after 8 pages of discussion and years of lifetime of this forum, it needed a person outside crimson's staff to make that clear, and she only admitted that now.
This could have been solved much earlier if only she told us that before, I think everyone thought that this was the official renegade forum, but this really changes things.

Are you kidding? People who were here when it all started were aware of that. I made it a separate forum out of the goodness of my heart and because I thought it would be better for the game rather than people just being a part of n00bstories.
I'm the bawss.

This forum's title won't change because you ask for it. It's been like this for the last years and will stay so. It's everyone's liberty to choose what they understand under "official". For me it's the "as official as it'll get"-renegade forums.
Posting in three topics about the same thing is getting confusing. Moreover, I don't see much valuable coming out of this topic anymore.
If you wish to, please continue the Exodus topic at this topic: http://www.renegadeforums.com/index.php?t=msg&th=34323&start=0&rid=4 882 .
Now start calling me a tool if u wish...
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord
