Spring has come to Zathyus Networks and with it brings exciting announcements. Last April, we announced the intention to merge our Support and Resource boards to better serve our users. Once all the major bugs and organization was worked out, we successfully merged in December. Only a few minor bugs remain and should be resolved shortly. Following the successful merge of Support and Resources, we began looking at further consolidating our services onto one board. Last month, we finalized plans to add two more boards to our official Support and Resource network. It gives us great pleasure to announce today that we will be adding Outline and Antiquus to the Official Support Community by the beginning of June. Outline's community of designers and artists, who are devoted to creating amazing quality content for our network and who continuously help and encourage one another in their endeavours is something that has been an attractive reason to support this merge: and something we do not want to lose in the transition. Rest assured that both boards have been given the same thought and care that went into the merge of ZNR. Preparation for the merge has been under way since December and we are pleased to announce that everything is on track to be merged by June. As the board undergoes this exciting transition, we expect minimal down time which should be limited only to the actual hour of the merge. A discussion topic has been created here on the official support community to answer your questions. At this time, we are not prepared to answer questions about specific forums or groups - but that information will be made available to you as soon as we have it. We have many more exciting projects in the works as part of our continued 10 Year Anniversary Celebration. Please keep checking back and be sure to follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook. ~ The Zathyus Networks Team |

To address your previous concern, Lenny:
Antiquus, while not as active as Outline, has things to offer as well. The close connections to both boards also obviously make it easier for a merge like this to happen. |

When 900 years old you reach, look as good you will not.

I look forward to seeing everyone's reaction to this news come April 2nd. As to the Outline staff, I look forward to working with you all very soon.

Look at date. Look at announcement. Look back at date. Look at announcement again. Wonder. |

You guys should really try something new for April 1st. Or at least time your merger announcements better. |

Why? If I had my way, I'd make every major announcement on April 1st. But then, I enjoy the mind games. Eventually people will have to realize that for an official network, we can't really prank you guys. But as long as we make the announcement on April 1st, everyone will question it until April 2nd rolls around. And in that way, we do prank everyone.

You could always follow Google's lead and unveil new Zathyus Networks products or ZetaBoards features. The sillier they are, the less people you have to deal with afterward who really, genuinely wanted them. Or perhaps it's just the opposite? The members around this network are a bit screwy (then again, look at the staff).

It's been a pleasure to have worked on both Outline and Antiquus and I wish both staff teams the best during the merge in June. |

We did actually have a prank attached to this announcement, but it was deemed too dangerous as someone might take the prank part seriously. Here's the full announcement. The prank then would have been trying to figure out what was real and what was serious:
But given we feared people might take the IF thing seriously, we opted to drop it and just do the merge announcement as close to April Fools as possible. Edited by StephenZB, Monday, 1. April 2013, 00:53.

Hmmmmm. So the remnants of the 'mainstream' ZB community, are becoming one singular entity? I can support this. I noticed Outline and Antiquus have their own memberbases, and much of the same. Hopefully this means that the official board receives that flow. |

This is quite real, as one of the oldest remaining staff members on Antiquus, I'm looking forward to working with the staff over here at Outline. A merger has been proposed before, ideas like this have been raised and the last merger announcement was made on April 1st, that turned out to be a reality. Heck, they even took our special themes!

Love me or

Why have two separate forums for resources? It only seems natural to have both as one superforum, honestly. |
