Forum for games

<Subject>:

* Concise Idea: Remove the Forum games sub forum from IK and make it its own forum on the CC forum index.


<Body>:

* Suggestion Idea: Make a forum specifically for games.

* Specifics: I think the current sub forum isnt good enough, even with 50 topics on a page again, there is still new posts in topics on page two sometimes when i go in there, threfore, i suggest making a new forum and have a sub forum just for mafia, and another for other games, like king of the hill, word association game and who's next.

* Why it is needed: It is needed because it would create more room for games and may get more people playing mafia. Also it may be an advantage for CC for it's forums to have a better game forum, which may encourage more people to join. This is an example
Although kind of stupid, it shows demand for games other then risk.

Terrible Idea.

This site is based on Word Domination, not on side games in the forum. Anything non-CC related belongs in IK. Be glad the games are a subforum....it didn't used to have that much.

Thanks for your comments, i disagree, i am aware CC is based on world domination, but what is wrong with having a side game forum, it wouldnt affect CC, or make the site worse in anyway, if anything enhance the site, perhaps bringing more members here. But i respect your opinion none of the less.

I think it would be fine. It would be a good place to put the no dice games.

Sorry if I came across as harsh.

One thing that bugs me is when the people who spend most of their times in the off-topics forums start complaining about something that happened site-wide when they could have contributed in another forum. This happens a lot with people complaining about new maps or about new features. I think adding another off-topic forum would just add to the problem.

i used to think the same but in terms of player retention and site traffic both ik and forum games are essential to the ongoing success of this site they are actually far more important than tournaments etc in terms of traffic and player retention that might sound hard to believe or accept but it's true

ps militant posts in all forums including the foundry do a search on his posts before you make false accusations :wink:

This suggestion would not solve anything, the subforums have the same number of topics per page as the regular forums. The topics per page for all forums was recently reduced.

I think a better idea would be to split mafia into it's own subforum under IK. I've already suggested this and am just waiting.
