Eh. No need. This can be the home. I wouldn't want to make another account.
I don't know. For right now, the Smashboards thread does fine in its own right, mostly 'cause we talk about stuff that we can all chime in on. The thread starts running into problems when multiple topics are being discussed at once, since then replies, continuations, and tangents all get scattered, potentially throughout multiple pages. The same sort of thing happens when someone asks a question that we know has an answer already typed out here; if they're trying to find an answer, they'll have to look through the entirety of the thread, unless someone can point them to a specific region of pages. Seeing as how we already have 79 pages at this point, this would just mean that we're just adding more onto a single source for information that can't have it's own categories and sub-sections, which ends up causing all kinds of organizational problems.
Of course, we still have the subreddit and the Steam discussions, which do have more options for proper organization, but that would essentially leave us with the same problem, but on a different scale; while those places may have better organization, it ends up being that all the info for Rivals is now spread out over a bunch of different sources, which means people might have to look for longer in more places in order to find the answer to their question, which could take up even more time.
However, if we do get some kind of official forums (Aetherboards, if you will), and if we encourage people to use it as their main source for information (something to the effect of, 'If you have a question, or something to share, then post it here first!'), that one extra account could be almost all you need to get any sort of news or data regarding Rivals.
I'm sorry if this comes across as me attacking you or me just ranting. If anyone disagrees, then go ahead and let me know.
