But I'll settle on the loveable mess that it is.

Bethesda (Game Studios, I presume) has no experience with MMOs and their games are always horribly unbalanced, what makes you think they'd handle ESO better than ZOS?

So I have a place I can go now and ask for Skyrim modding advice and it won't be off-topic? *hopeful*

You always had that place: Bethesda's official forum and a dozen of TES modding sites. What stopped you?

I've asked on other forums I frequent. No one answered. And I don't like juggling a half-dozen different forum accounts so I can ask the odd question.

And every time I tried to log into the Nexus my e-mail would get hacked. So there's that too.

The ESO forum is going to remain separate for the time being (possibly forever), so you need to create another account anyway...

@ZOS_GinaBruno

Forum Registration is separate. (I'm all setup on both the account and forums). You may want to note that in the OP.

There is no forum for these accounts yet, the bethsoft forums are the old ones that are getting discontinued and replaced by this new thing.

The forums there are for all of Bethsoft's products. Gina had mentioned to talk to the staff on the forums (there) if we had questions. Need a forum account there for that, or to chat on any of the forums other than this one.

It looked like you thought the forum account was required, as part of the new registration. It certainly would look like that to everyone who saw your post.

The bethsoft forums are the old forums getting replaced, and if you have any questions I'm pretty sure the awesome Gina will help us out.

Nay. I was pointing out that ZOS is directing us to use those forums to ask Bethesda questions. I don't have any questions.
...The point (apparently) was missed.

Well the way you wrote it was really the issue. Made you look confused, and with all those fancy titles in your signature people could mistake your post for thinking you knew what you were talking about

Nothing says they couldn't hire people that DO know how to run an mmo. And while a lot of Bethesda's games might be broken messes at first, they do usually fix the huge, glaring issues with their games. Opposite of what Zen is doing. I'd take a modicum of competence over a company that's constantly breaking the game with mere incremental patches.

They did. That's exactly why they founded Zenimax Online Studios.

I don't think you realize how BGS operates. Their team is only around 100 people, it's unusually small even for single player games of this scale - and they like it this way, it allows them to work closely as a team instead of a crowd of nameless cogs in a machine.
An MMO requires constant maintenance. If they developed ESO, that would kill their single player franchises. The only reasonable option was hiring new devs just for ESO, which they did.

Maotti · February 2016

I hope the new forum will be less like this one and more like Bethesdas is now.

At least there's an offtopicsection there.

I GOT MY ACTUAL ACCOUNT NAME!
Someone stole my "true" account name...

Likewise, I'm glad I was able to reserve mine. I was able to get my preferred name here on the forums, but my @ name ingame had to be Ign0tus because I assume the other was already claimed. I actually had something ludicrous as my original account name because I did not know that people would see it ingame and have to contact you with it. I made it long and complex so it would be like a second password for logging in. I later had to open a ticket to get it changed and Ign0tus is what they gave me.

Hmm, tough choice for those active on both Bethesda and ZOS forums under different names...

Flip of a coin I guess

Do the new names have to match our forum or ESO account names?

Not unless you want it to! It's not necessary, though.

@ZOS_GinaBruno So, on Bethesda.net, I chose a screen name/account name that actually matches my Xbox LIVE Gamer Tag.

When all of the Forums for the various games are moved over to Bethesda.net, this change won't affect my Xbox signing into my ESO account, will it?

OmniDevil · February 2016

Signed up and username reserved! Thanks, for the heads up!

@ZOS_GinaBruno when the changes occur. Can the Bethesda.net forum work with TapaTalk?

Wrong thread . ..

nimander99 · February 2016

I removed the 99 from my UN but just remember... There can be only one!

Only one Nimander that is, you will know me by my sarcastically witty (in my mind anyways) responses

Unless of course someone else makes a similar forum name and is also sarcastically witty... then I'll have to become droll and morose (can I be droll and morose at the same time?).

Karminathevamp · February 2016

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm already subscribed since Bethesda Blogs changed to Bethesda.net a few months ago.

Nic727 · February 2016

What is happening?

Will they put the forum on Bethesda forum? I hope not, because the one we have right now for ESO is much cleaner and is very pretty compared to the Bethesda forum.

MaddPowered · February 2016

Upon removing Veteran Ranks, How will the new level system look? Will it expand on after 50? 51, 52, 53... So on and so fourth, Or will there be an entirely new system?

Wrong thread for this, bud. However, to answer your question, all we know now is the level cap will be 50 and CP will be used to determine the gear/sets you can wear.
