[QUOTE="weem, post: 5292038, member: 9470"] That's a bummer :( :erm: Let me clarify before this (somehow) turns into an argument - I certainly don't want words put in my mouth. I think "RPG Industry Forum" is currently an announcements forum - so I would (pretending my opinion shapes things here) simply call it that... "Announcements". The discussion on the industry, freelancing, publishing, design, trends as far as I can tell takes place in the General RPG forum right now (like it or not, for better or worse, etc). You could certainly make a case for pulling that out of there - but the point of this discussion was to address the complaint that "General RPG is too quiet, therefore I think the site is dead, so I'm leaving" - pulling content out of there does not help accomplish this. So what I'm getting at is that it does already exist, this kind of discussion. I'm not saying "to heck with it", it has a place (again, whether that is the proper place or not will depend on who you ask - but it seems fine to me). Now, maybe Russ and others are being bombarded with requests to have a dedicated place to discuss licensing, design and more - maybe I don't see that. If they are, then Russ would need to decide whether or not to pull it out into it's own thing - but I wouldn't without a lot of evidence pointing towards that request. That's just me though - your points are as valid as mine, maybe more so for all I know :p In the end, I want Russ to do what he feels will work best and for EN World to be really successful. If that means my ideas do nothing for him, or don't spark any more ideas, then that's fine too - and I do appreciate your feedback as well - it helps demonstrate more possibilities and ideas :) [/QUOTE]
