if they merge there would be a huge amount of people. We could be talking 2,000+ members.

I just don't like the sound of it. Something tells me it's not a good idea.
Mr. Krabs: Do you smell it..that smell...a kind of smelly smell...a smelly smell that smells smelly. Anchovies.
Squidward: What?
Mr. Krabs: ANCHOVIES!
Anchovies: MEEP, MEEP, MEEP.

I probably won't be on here too much being in college and all. I will try to pop on every once in a while though to share my thoughts.

We don't need to have one big forum to be a unified SpongeBob community.  We always have and will be, regardless of the number of forums.

It wouldn't get out of control.  I visit forums that have 50,000+ members, and they are very much in control.

 It's not unified if you have to visit two different places to talk about the same things.

I think it would be a good idea. I was from one of the forums that shut down, and it sucks. Anyways, it can take less risk of other forums closing, and it can unify fans. Those who wanna join can just see 1 BIG happy community than a lot...

I was also a poster in a wrestling forums, and it got unified to another big forums, yes its more work for it means more members and lots of moderating to do, but in the end its worth it. It will be more lively. And we can really get opinions and great discussions from lots of fans.

And how to get them together? In the unification of the WWE forums, whichever community one belonged to, they just have to log in to their original names and passwords, and they can get in to the unified site.

So you don't even know how to?  That's great.  And the there's nothing wrong with going to different forums.  In fact, it's better.  Again, regardless of how this turns out, there will always be more forums.  All I ask is, what's the point?

There is no knowing how to.  There are hundred of ways to go about doing this.  I just want to see how they did it.  The point is as sweetmisery said,  its just better.

Spongey34 you sound like a 2 year old. Your whining about this way to much. This is a very good idea. Cmonkey's reasons are absolutely correct. Why go to 2 when you can go to one with both forums basially there. Members, don't worry about staff. Your not staff so no need to panic. We have it under control.

This plan will work but no Squareboard.

I'm not whining.  I'm stating the facts.  You're the two year old who always has your own crazy opinion on something but can never back it up.

I don't need to prove anything to a member. We are discussing it now.
