Hi, as my name says, I'm Erin. I am not new to Thief or Thief FMs, but new to this website as an actual member. I haven't posted on any forums since Nexopia, if anyone knows what that is, like 2004-2007. Anyway, the organization of this website isn't hard to understand, however it is a little overwhelming. I'm looking for a reliable source to find new and upcoming missions. I see that some of the threads are very outdated, or I'm just not looking in the right area.
Any help would be very appreciated! Thank you!
:)

Why do you find things overwhelming? You can ignore most of the sub-forums (many of them are half-dead anyway) if you're not interested in the games in question, and if it's Thief that you're interested in, that only leaves you four sub-forums. If you like to play other games as well, then General Gaming is a pretty cool place to talk about them. :) Community Chat is for everything else, mostly overly serious talk about politics and stuff, and random nonsense, but that's life. :D
Anyway, nice to see some new faces in here. Welcome!

Hi Tomi
I just haven't spent enough time on here to get used to it, ha! Maybe I'll stop by in those other forums as well! Thank you for the greeting!

Hi Hit Deity,
I have checked there. Most notably the
Upcoming and Abandoned FMs List, except it was really out dated or my eyes just aren't trained enough to snipe what's new. From what I can tell, the newest comments in that thread are just about how dead it is.
Is there a thread similar to this one that is current? Or will someone just randomly post a thread saying there is a new mission thats out? I'm trying to find out what and where to look out for new releases. I have been using the website (
www.shadowdarkkeep.com), and (
www.keepofmetalandgold.com) for updates, but I'm wondering if there was anything here as well that might be the best route for new information.
I hope that makes sense haha!!
Thank you!!

For downloading released missions, new or otherwise, there's a very thorough archive at (
https://www.taffersparadise.co.uk/thief2missions.html) Taffer's Paradise.
But otherwise, yes, people will just post a thread in the Fan Missions forum when they release a new FM.

Welcome to the forum! Your best bet may be to check the Thief FMs forum every month or so. New releases tend to get a thread, and the convention is to include the release date in the title.

Ahhhh thank you! That is very helpful. Now I understand how things work here.
Thank you Nameless Voice!

Hello Anarchic Fox,
Thank you very much! This definitely helps in my understanding of this place and you understood exactly what I needed to know. Haha!
