During the recorded history of the Maxim game (from late 2002 to 2005), 39,000 roleplay posts were posted in almost 2,000 story threads,[REF] Much of the creativity expressed by players of Maxim was lost, when the message boards were reset in late 2002.
The changes continued into the year 2008, with the introduction of the Chaos games and combining the Solo, Turmoil and Massacre forums into a single one in Tempers Ball [REF].
