Does this forum have private forums?!
Do you mean whether this board software allows to have private forums?
The backroom, but I don't think it's private ? Maybe to Junior members ?
I think he means forums that exist, but are not known about...
again ?Quote:

intresting question...
I've always tried to figure out how KukriKhan can inform staff about something in several minutes... ~D perhaps a non-visible staff notes board? ~:) I don't know... I am only moderator at an ezboard.. no vbulletin ones so I don't know if it's possible.
joking about KukriKhan.. he just does his job very well :bow:
.
It is possible in most forum software, this one included. ~;)

:sneaky: then I was right after all...Quote:

I checked once the Who's Online.
And I noticed at Adherbal and Epistolary Richard:
Game Mechanics ~D
Selected it, and it wanted a password. Dang, I wanted to know the RTW Game Mechanics. ~D
Plus, I'm also a moderator, but at a Invision Power Board, and it allows private forums. ~:)
that's proof...
not very smart move of those entering private forums while not in invisible mode.:evilgrin:
hehe I check 'looking at' in profiles sometimes too.. mostly because I posted something urgent and I want to know if they're reading..
myself I can't use invisible mode :furious3: - must be visible to let stw mp friends know they can invite me via pm
Very true. I do the same thing.... :evilgrin:Quote:

Soly's secret forum... you'll never find it.

Careful... do you want us to do a Clayton on you?
Sarcastic or for real?! :embarassed:
Soly's secret forum. We'll never know it, because he's Invisible. And he never posts in any of the forums.
Citadel: Total War has a private modding forum, but it requires that you are part of the group to see it and also a password. They are very helpful for modding.
So do we, over at Byzantium Total War.
Very useful especially for a closed beta. ~:)
I have no evidence that suggests it truely exist's. Senior moderators torment me with the thought... and so I like to torment members with the possibility also. ~:)Quote:
Soly's secret forum.
Certain speculation is allowed...
As for you being given the "Virtual cement overcoat"... I was merely... speculating ~;)
However, if any member was to be caught exploring the programming strings that bind the Org together, I would... speculate... that the Management would bury them so deep that they would never darken the Org doorstep again.
:hanged:
Of course they have hidden forums. Just look at EB.
An admin will be able to see all the forums. Hey Tosa, can we have a screenshot just to prove there are hidden forums? :grin2:

No need for screenshots (although I do understand that it's humour. ~;)).
.
I just want to see how many there are... Pretty please.
I wondered what had happened to that kid.Quote:

The question of whether or not there is a hidden forum has plagued the minds of patrons since the dawn of the .org's time. Yet so far no one has proven it, though many have tried. Many have came public with information reguarding these so called "private" forums, but each time the .org moderators reply with carefully crafted puns and clever sarcasm that turns curious eyes away. and when it seemed as if a break through could be made, all evidence is deemed "gah" or "t3h oLd!"
For now, the moderator's hold on the evidence seems to be stopping any real progress from being made, and the questions of "are we patrons alone in the forums? or is there a place set up to watch us...study us?" are still raised by those brave enough to ask..
For now.. it seems the .org patrons may never know.. For the useless sarcasm and terrible joke channel. I'm Monk. I'll see you next time on "investigating what no one else wants to.."

Master Tosainu. :bow: How many euros for acces to whisky and whiskey forums? ~;)
No wonder we needed an upgrade to the server to get the board search working again... ~D
