Six boards. No sub-boards.
Everything in one place, on purpose
The fastest way to kill a new community is to split it across forty rooms with three people in each. Six boards is all we get until there are enough of us to need a seventh.
Leaks & Rumors
Leaks are allowed here. Tag the spoiler, say where it came from, and let people decide for themselves what to open.
Map & Locations
Leonida coast to swamp. Landmarks, geography, distances, and the long argument about how much of it is water.
Story & Characters
Jason, Lucia, and everyone orbiting them. Heavy spoiler discipline in this room — assume everything is tagged.
Online & Crews
Crew signups, roles, timezones. Build your roster now so you're not recruiting strangers at 3am on launch night.
PC Port Watch
Every real signal about a PC release, collected in one thread instead of scattered across nine hundred replies.
Clips & Fails
Your best worst moments. Clips, fails, near misses, and the physics doing something it clearly shouldn't.
Open now · nothing answered yet
Every thread here is still waiting for its first reply
That isn't a bug. It's the only window where being early actually means something — first reply on a thread is a permanent line in the record. Spoiler-tagged posts stay blurred until you choose to open them.
How much of Leonida is actually water? Counting every canal shot we've seen
Sorting the pre-Extended-Look pile: what's sourced, what's noise, what's someone's fanfic
Two protagonists, one story — is this a swap system or a genuine duo?
The PC port signal log — post evidence, not hope
Crew signups: post your timezone, your platform, and the role you actually want
What the 27 August Extended Look is most likely to show, and what it won't
Warm-up thread: post the funniest thing you've done in V this month
The charter
Written down before anyone joins, so it can't be invented later
Every rule below exists because of a specific way other communities have gone wrong. These are the terms of the place, and they're public from day one.
Leaks are allowed. Untagged leaks are not.
The hype cycle goes wherever leaks are permitted. Ours are permitted — behind a spoiler tag, with a stated source. Posting an untagged spoiler is the one thing that gets a post pulled on sight.
There is no downvote.
Downvoting turns a board into a popularity contest where the loudest take wins and dissent gets buried. You can react, quote, or reply. You cannot bury someone quietly.
New accounts can post immediately.
No karma minimums, no account-age gates, no waiting room. If a spam problem appears we'll solve it with moderation, not by locking out everyone who just arrived.
Every removal comes with a reason and an appeal.
If a post is removed you get told which rule and why, in writing. You can appeal it, and the appeal gets read by a person. No silent deletions, no shadow removals.
You keep your name.
Persistent profiles, full post history, visible join date. The point of a forum over a feed is that you recognise people. Regulars should be recognisable by week two.
No pop-ups, no interstitials, no autoplay.
Most of you are on a phone. The board loads fast, search works, and nothing slides over the thread you're reading to ask for your email twice.
Founding members
The first 500 accounts keep a permanent badge
Not a discount, not a tier, nothing to buy. Just a mark on your profile showing you were here before the thing existed — and a vote on the seventh board when we're big enough to need one.
