I know he is, but the name of this site is Apolyton Civilization Site. Not Apolyton Sid Meier Site.

It seems if Simgolf gets a forum, Apolyton should cover Pirates 2.
So Dan you know the solution.

Duh... They never had one, for the same reason.
But maybe the Dinosaurs forum can be renamed "Firaxis" to cover things like Dinosaurs, SimGolf and Pirates... After all they had a "Big Huge Games" forum before they ever delivered anything.

Appreciate the suggestion, but this will not happen.

There was a forum group named "Big Huge Games", but never a forum itself -- it always had a Rise of Nations forum within it. The forum group was created only once (a) RoN's development was publicly announced and (b) we, the Apolyton administration, announced our intention to cover the game. As BHG' debut and only title (to date), the RoN forum also served as a 'unofficial-official' bulletin board for the company itself, and hence the forum group's original name.
After and in light of RoN's commercial release, the "Big Huge Games" forum group was renamed "Rise of Nations".

Yeah, what are they gonna do? Move your thread to the proper forum? (Which doesn't exist so it would just go bye-bye)
Besides, Pirates! 2! has this thread, isn't that enough?

Tbh there should be no objection to using 'Other Games' and seeing how it goes. If Pirates2 turns out to be the game of the 21st century, then maybe it'll generate enough threads to get its own forum. But I doubt it will.

Eh?
FP:
You are well read, so please read a little more carefully. My suggestion only works if there exists a simgolf forum. Nowhere do I comment on the actual existence of the simgolf forum.
At least my post stayed ontopic, unlike many threads that get 'fezzed', or your most recent post.

Poly must worship at the alter of Sid. We need a Pirates 2 forum.

I say Dr Spike had the right solution: have Pirates2 covered in the "other games" forum, and see if it's all the rage...

vB supports well over 500 forums, let alone the 70 or so Poly has at the moment 
As Markos has already pointed out, Apolyton does not have the ability to cover anymore games, let alone a non-strategic one such as Pirates! 2

But hopefully soon it will have the ability. If a real Civ game comes out we don't want to be constrained.

You mistake me. My point is that there are already a lot of useless forums here that could either be merged or deleted.

All jokes aside, why doesn't someone move this thead to the Other Games forum?

Well, its about Pirates. You can be a Pirate or you can hunt down Pirates. You sail around the Spanish Main in a Pirate ship and interact with Pirates.
Did that help?
