Move to "Honorably Discharged"?

Just a thought, given that Shrapnel no longer publishes Starfury anymore... or is the community here big and active enough to warrant its own forum like the SE4/SE5 forum?

I think theres still enough activity to warrent its own forum for now. There are still at least 2 mods in development though work is slow.

The community may not be big, but there are still a few of us who are around often. I am also working on a mod called "Multiverse" (50% completed).
I do not play SE4/SE5, this game is the only one that keeps me coming here.

While stalled, SW to SF Mod is still in some level of development. I'm currently fighting with a bug in the Stores that is proving very hard to track down. Probably because my stores.txt file is pushing 2 megs...

Six days of silence? Maybe Honorably Discharged wouldn�t be so undeserving. I mean it�s not like the game or the forum will disappear. It will just move off the main page and make room for the new. Not so bad if you really think about it. Certainly not a bad thing right?

I would like to see this forum remain active. I just discovered Star Fury and I think it's a blast. I actually like it more than I like Space Empires, I think.

The forum would stay active. It would be moved to the Honorably Discharged Forum and become a sub-forum there instead of holding a slot on the main board like it does now.

Out of the 26 or so game titles posted here only four have more posts or threads, and at leat five of the 26 have not have a new post in the last six months. So according to those statistics you want to discharge the fift most popular game here? Is realestate that important?

I am not sure what you are talking about is the same thing I am talking about. Shrapnel Development has two main forums, Shrapnel Community has 5 (one of which is this), Digital Eel one, GilliGames one, Hyperborea Studios one, Illwinter Game Design two, Joe's Games one, NEPPAGames one, ProSimCo six, One Games one, SprueGames one, Stormcloud Creations three, The Camo Workshop two, Tiny Hero Game Studios one, Tonio Loewald one. That is a total of 29 main forums. Within those main forums is another matter. All that I am saying is that instead of this game; which I too own and play, being its own main forum it gets moved to become a sub-forum; that's all! The name of the area it would be moved to is the Honorably Discharged; which unless I misunderstand is for games that Shrapnel no longer sales. The Honorably Discharged does say "This forum is for discussions/questions concerning out-of-print Shrapnel products". It is not a bad thing to be moved there, it does not mean the owners of the game aren't working on mods, and it doesn't mean discussion can no longer take place. If it is really that big a deal than lets drop it. Neither one of us are flipping the bill for this place.
