Damn! Posted too early :-)Anyway, I was just wondering what's in store for this forum.
I'm a bit disapointed that Firaxis seem to completely ignore it. If you look at the Firaxis forum, recently even a very simple newbie question has been answered by someone from Firaxis. The news about release appear first in the newsgroups. There's been no notification either on the SMAC web site or in these forums... I think that the argument that they just don't have time has been invalidated with Brian's posts as it would be very easy for him to send the same post to this forum.
We're now left with just one reason for this - this forum is a mess. Again, if you look at the Firaxis board, there are something like 5-6 topics alive at the moment. All of them on-topic.
If the off-topicness is why Firaxis have kept away from this forum - I don't see a reason for them to come back. So what's going to happen when the demo gets out? Will the old forum be brought back? Or will a brand new one be created? Will we still have access to this one?
My opinion is that most likely this forum will be scrapped - what do you think?
