Several of you have been waiting on this news, so here it is. TFC will not be fully merging with GH. A number of reasons against this arose, and a good deal of them come from the fact that certain members of both original communities simply can't coexist peacefully. Others involve logistical reasons, such as site independance, etc.
But not everything is off. TFC and GameHavoc will remain completely seperate entities, but will enter into a sister-site partnership similar to what several of you probably remember Chi-Mayhem doing. Both sites will link each other and ATTEMPT to maintain good relationships (I know its hard for some of you), but the admin databases will be shared between the two sites.
Both sites will have the ability to 'deny' priviledges to admins they disagree on. For example, if airwalk were still an admin, Outkast would be able to 'flag' him in the database and his admin would not transfer to TFC. This system is still being designed but should be ready within the next few weeks. It will ONLY apply to STEAM based games running AMX. To have admin on UT2K4 or CoD, you have to actually be a GH admin, etc. You will not have access to the private admin forums on each site unless you are a true admin on that site. Random GH admin can't see TFC Admin forum and vise versa.
There's more details to be hammered out in how the admin sharing system will work, but that's the gist of it.
