I don't see why we had to axe PP&A, but whatever. Now I don't have to scroll 10 miles to get to rmsupport

CS isn't a humor forum. You see, 9/11 has always been considered "the humor board," but it's also been the dumping ground for weird/neat/random/offbeat topics that aren't really worth posting in general but also aren't funny. Basically, we've split that concept up, so that the funny board can focus more on being funny, and the offbeat topics can exist without people flaming and trolling the creators because they're not funny.

It's a win win.

For an example of a pretty good CS topic, check out this one.

Am I the only one who thinks it's a bad idea to remove PP&A? I always thought of that as a staple, a fairly active forum for when you need to get something done. Any chances of it coming back? :/

We will see what happens when GW6 launches, but at the moment: no.

PP&A seemed pretty useful to me! Odd that you would get rid of it, dudes.

We got rid of PP&A because it has been pretty inactive for a while now, and we think people actually have better chance to find help in other forums. For example, if you want a mapper, it's much easier to find one in G&D instead of PP&A. Same applies to graphical artists, composers, writers, beta testers and everything else. As for advertising sites, that can be done in the Computers & Web forum and fits there just as well. Overall, we thought it was a good idea to get rid of one fairly inactive forum to increase activity in others, and hopefully make it easier to get help with whatever you need. It wasn't a bad forum by any means.
