    [​IMG] I was just curious about the game forums.

    I've noticed that some games are given forums and some are not.

    Pools of Radiance seems to be universally hated, (I checked a few minutes ago, and it had 1 post other than Tal's 'read this first' post) yet it gets a forum.

    I've seen websites that called Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic the best RPG they'd seen in years, and at least one named it the Game of the Year. It does not have a forum.

    This is not a request to get a KotOR forum, or a request to remove the PoR forum. This is simply a question: How is it decided which games get forums and which don't?

    As this is a site primarily for D&D CRPGs, most likely DnD fantasy CRPGs get their own forum. I think that most of the current ones had pretty good demand for them as well.

    Only Tal could tell you for certain, however.

    If it's a true D&D game, it gets covered 100%. Anything else would be entirely optional.
