Share our new BioWare fan forums with others

Maybe when enough people will be registered and active and asking for it, with at least one volunteer to moderate, for each language ? Until then I understand that it could be hard to keep alive and moderate such a section...

Speaking about that...the other language BSN communities?
I know they tend to not have a lot of people , and moderating might be an issue...
But what to do?

I send a PM to a Polish guy , and I might send a PM to the Polish BSN moderator.I'm not sure they are still very active , but I just asked what was going on with the Polish community and if they were planning anything.

Here's some brutal truth:

However much fun we are having chatting between a few hundred people, this forum's reach pales into insignificance compared to the BioWare official forum with strong google ranking and a natural draw to new players. By closing, BSM Prime is shedding thousands of community members and visitors and in lost potential joiners before Mass Effect Andromeda launches, many thousands more.

Before BSN Prime closes, in order to preserve our community for the future, we need to get the attention of the BioWare community now.
We have only a few days (to August 26th) to pump up our web presence before BSN Prime locks. 3 weeks to reach a critical mass so that future fans can find us.

we must please:


One. Share to as many people on BSN Prime

Signature suggestion:

"Fans of Mass Effect and Dragon Age are launching to the new BSN forum. bsn.boards.net Will you make it?"




Two. Welcome those from other smaller fragmenting forums

At one point there were 7 competing forums (many of us joined several), please welcome those people back here.

It wasn't a competition, we were all looking for the best option with best intentions, so everyone is welcome.

This forum presents a clean slate for all.  
(we can always ban people again if they behave like an ass, but they have a choice not to be).


Three. Twitter / Reddit / other sub-optimal locations

No need to spam, but let people know we are here.

Follow us on Twitter: twitter.com/BSNforum

Let none of us underestimate the task of building and maintaining a fan community without the marketing pull of EA/BioWare.

Thank you for being a hero of the last days.







I find this Poetic. Around 2013 the "Indoctrination Theory" was banned from all forms of talk on story, gen, etc. Had to be removed and instead head to the groups. Everyone that disliked it, trolls, or anything sought out anyone who talked about it and reported it. People being banned left and right, complete chaos within those few days. No Warning was given, nothing was ever planned, and yet now after 3 years the BSN is finally going down.

Tis a odd feeling of how all those that did act ugly towards that way towards the ITers, and even people that started to see how Bioware was taking things quite too far, are now the ones complaining, the ones getting banned, the ones that are feeling enraged, etc. However at least Bioware has given a warning and a grace period up until the 25th to be shut down. At least now people can understand how those that were on the early January of 2013 feel about how everything changing and basically being removed. I do feel bad for those that just got alone with everyone on the BSN, and didn't partake in arguments, debates, and flame-wars.

Enjoy this new place.

Like I said earlier, I feel that within the final 48 hours of BSN Prime....we should just spam the link / information to reach us here..in every thread / each forum. I know this sounds like some type of anarchy plan...but..in the past few days..I have witnessed first hand...threads being closed and shut down where Cyonan nearly gave mention of this site. Not to mention the thread Cyonan began in multiplayer that was merely giving suggestions as to come to this site, that was closed and locked almost immediately. I am not advocating some type of crazy retaliation towards BSN for acting as it did. I am merely suggesting, that within the final 48 hours of BSN Prime... we simply spam the location to here for everyone to see, so they may be able to make their own decision, as to what to do after the final day of BSN Prime. I do not advocate any type of provcation, I am merely trying to come across to the people that will feel left behind, that there is another alternative for all of them to re-unite with their friends, in a forum that is built for them, by the people who are just like them. Thank you for your time in this matter. 

Appreciate the sentiments guys.

I'm sure none of the moderators advocate a spamming campaign on BSN prime as we want to stay good neighbors with BioWare.

But we all have signature bars, and if the matter comes up naturally in conversation, that's fine isn't it?

Can we make somebody from BioWare (like Conal Pierse) endorse here as the official replacement for BSN Prime?

I'm french but I'd rather not moderate anything because I'm weak sauce .^^
