Opinions, please! Is this forum valuable to you as a separate forum?

If General and 4E are going to be merged, then please keep this forum.

I expect to like the General forum a lot less once it's merged with the 4E forum.

What you might seek to do is clarify a bit on what goes here and what goes in General. Sometimes it's hard to tell.

Also, how about a forum for old school gaming (i.e. AD&D, C&C, etc.)?

I'm not concerned with Pathfinder specifically, but this is the forum I read most for other d20 stuff like True20, D20 Modern and others. Having this forum separate from the others is very convenient for me.

Darrin Drader · May 23, 2008

Another suggestion would be to drop d20 from the forum title and add the second most popular OGL game, which as far as I can tell is True20.

More traffic = more value, from my perspective.

From a completely selfish standpoint, I'd like to see it merged with General, because I'd love it if I could get more people talking about Star Wars here. ENWorld has a ton of awesome people on it, and I'd love to be able to talk with those people about Star Wars. As is, despite its popularity, Star Wars is barely mentioned in the forum's blurb, so I think it tends to get overlooked.

I'd really like to see a specific Pathfinder forum...

I voted 'other'. ISTM, if things in general are whipping of the screen too fast, then it should be broken up, but somewhat more evenly than the current arrangement. In a way, it depends what you plan to do WRT 4e and 3e cometh the hour.

I think this forum should be kept as is, and when 4e is released, 3e and Pathfinder are dealt with in this forum.

I wonder if it's the lack of a dedicated forum that leads to the lower Pathfinder traffic, or if it's the lack of interest on the EnWorld boards.

Paizo has its own boards, and they don't seem bad for this purpose. And especially during the Alpha & Beta phase it makes sense to post heavily on the Paizo boards, since it's a public playtest and that's where they will look for input and critic. Anything on EnWorld might get missed...
