Lets say Yoshi for reasons unknown to anyone, suddenly reappeared and deleted the Null forum.
The rules for the other forums would still remain, and null type things would get locked in lite discussion.
What do you think would happen?

All hell wouldn't break lose. That's what the mods are for.
I just think though if the null forum was deleted tomorrow, it would be a little chaotic at first, but then it would settle down eventually

SEN would be a better place.
Idiots would have no where to post and whine and eventually leave.
YES! BALETE THE NULL FORUM!

Eh, I wouldn't care. Hardly go there anyway. If you're really bored enough to just talk about random crap that really doesn't matter, theres this thing we call a telephone. perhaps you should try using it. If it's not working, you may need to find something called a "friend," and get their telephone number first.

I think the exact opposite would happen. All the idiots would bring their spam to the Lite Discussion, which obviously gives you minerals for posting. Plus their would be alot more new members becoming Regulars alot faster. =\

Then all of my hard work on Syphon's pic would be toast. Really though, I'd be sad if Null went. Despite the massive amounts of spam, some really hilarious stuff happens there too.

Find a new home for the topics that have some value to the them, and delete it.
But then spammy topics will just appear out of no where in all forums because n00bs won't have a specific place to flood spam into.
But, I say leave the null forum there.
The spam that is in there, instead of locking it, just delete the topic.
Then just pin a topic saying "Where did my topic go?!" Then just make it explain that n00by spammy topics will be deleted without any notice.
I go to the null forum, if you ever look at the topics I go to its always the same ones. I know them not to be spammy, so I visit them. Eventually I will wander into a new topic, but I don't do that much.
I remember the day when you could go into a topic in that forum and not have to burn your eyes with 10 pages of spam. You could go into a topic, and know something of some value would be in there.
What happened?

The Lite Discussion would be flooded with spam and forum games and the moderators would be very busy 
Also I would get almost twice as many posts 
Just keep the Null here.

Same here. There was barely any spam when I joined 8 months ago...but there's still one thing that gets to me..how'd you get to regular first when I was here a month longer lol.
Anyways: No Null, More spam in the Discussion forums (Lite & Serious), gg SeN.

Anyway, it would spill over to other forums and I would have a really fun time. I'd also say there would be a sharp increase of average age and maturity level. Hm, I made it sound good now.

It would set a precedent and all other non-mapping related forums would be deleted. Oh wait... SEN likes to contradict precendents =-O So... more forums would be created in place of null, forums like "Favorite **** goes here" and "Time killing zone". Or... Garbage forum will be brought back as "Garbage Classic" (teehee bad pun).

[center]First of all, the stink of spam that seems to be filling all of SEN would slowly air out.
Second, alot of members would have no reason to return to these boards. Null is their LIFE.
Third, there are a few good topics in there, they would have to be saved(moved) first.
Yeah, it wouldn't help or hurt the site too much.[/center]
