Separate Forums for Strategy and for Game Stories?
Over in the Apolyton forum Googlie posted a question to MarkG, asking if there could be a separate Game Stories Forum and a Strategy Forum, rather than a combined (for the ease of members who wanted to post/read strategy topics and not wade through all the fiction, and vice versa)

Mark needs to know if this is a popular request or just a Googlie gripe.

Let's give our opinion.

I'd like to see separate Forums.

Separate: 1
Together: 0

Votes are good, reasons are better
There are almost zero strategy posts, so?

I'll be the lone disenting voice I guess but we have almost no strategy as the last post said! Seems odd to have them together, but why make to forums when the other would get no use? Lets wait and see if we actually get some strategy and then seperate them.

I think nobody is posting strategy questions or tips or discussion threads 'cos they perceive this as a fiction site. Separating them gives them reason to post without fearing the "old Masters" now into fiction writing will disparage their questions and tips, as happened in the newbie/vets scathing posts on the other forums.

Make it unique and they will come

Break 'em up. They're two different things altogether. On the other hand - I came in looking for strategy posts, and now I'm doing the faction fiction bit

Cheers

Markos, Thanks.

Now to the fiction writers - let's get some strategy questions/tips/discussions going to stimulate this new forum. We owe it to Markos
