Merging Classic and Indie

[Deamon]

niki haven't you forgot something ?

What have indi to do with classic ? Well maybe the time they need to get finished and released make them sort of classic already at the time of release

No seriously, - over my dead body only! -

What next ? merging the IUF forum with classic too, because it is quiet ?

I think the different forums serve a specific purpose. It is true that the indi forum got quiet since Mike, Leif and Manuel left it. I of course got an own forum section now so all IUF related discussions do not happen on the indi forum anymore.

There are still some indies like chad, GCB and danger from the deep for whome the forum is of use(well and form time to time I also get to post some news from Mike). And who is going to come to the idea to look in the classic forum for indi projects ? This will only contribute to confusion and cut away the audience flow to the indi projects.

The discussions on the classic forum will drawn away the indi threads with time and who is going to sort it out then anyway ?

And besides that I will not give up the birth place of my project without a fight for nostalgical purposes alone. Everytime I log on to the forum and see the indi forum it reminds me how everything began, reawaking all the sinpiration I got from this indi forum here, back in the days and I don't want this to change any time soon. This forum changed in many ways and I like to keep the fond memories how it once was. The indi forum is my spiritual connection to the good old days and I still gain strength from it by just looking at it.

Well said!

Would you be happier if it was renamed to "Other Subsims" or some other appropriate and encompassing name?

You mean after it has been dumped into the classic forum ?

[Letum]

"Dumped"?
Is that how you see it?
Why "dumped" rather than promoted?

Exactly!

Why "dumped" rather than promoted?

Didn't I explained that above already ?

And why do you want to "promote" the indi forum suddenly ?

And why "promote" it into the classic forum ? Why not promote it into the SHIV forum or something ? Now that would be a promotion wouldn't it ?

I did not consider that anyone might think one forum of more value than any
other. I do no understand this.
