Actually, if TTLG adds more games to it's forums, it's going to be one Hell of a mess to maintain and manage.

I understand if you already have too many forums, but with the amount of equally 'amateurish' problems Morrowind (and other games) suffered, and the extraordinary way in which it offers repetitiveness far better than Bloodlines could ever hope to do, this argument is phenomenally unconvincing.
Don't get me wrong, I very much loved Morrowind, but in terms of gameplay depth and character interaction it couldn't begin to hold a candle to Bloodlines. The only things it has over Bloodlines are a wider audience and modding tools. That's
it. And last I knew, TTLG wasn't about that. Especially considering the ridiculous flaws of Thief 2--'floating objects'; yeah, that rings a bell most painfully.
I have nothing but respect for you, Dave, in all other circumstances, but I am nevertheless tempted to tell you to put down the crackpipe on this issue. I can't begin to buy that it's about Bloodlines' quality rather than about keeping TTLG streamlined and manageable, and frankly, that would've been far less insulting to a damned terrific game. Flawed, yes, but certainly no more flawed than any other game offered its own forum here.

I find that simply and sincerely flabbergasting, and I think you ought to give the game another chance. Nosferatu aren't the most social characters, and they can miss a large amount of depth that the game has to offer, much like Brujah--perhaps you would like the game better if you played it another way?

I still think it should have its own forum, with Wynne as Moderator, but I just live here...
Awww... how sweet. Wait--that would be WORK. Work bad. Me lazy.

I didn't choose, or even get to choose whether they was a Morrowind forum/site or not, that was before my decision-making time. Truth be told, if I had of had the choice I wouldn't have picked it either - it certainly was too repetitive with far too much reading of long reams of text.
A lack of Bloodlines forum is certainly not about keeping the forums tidy - (
http://www.sshock2.com/bioshock) BioShock recently got anticipation forum and could get its own section (General Disc, Hints & Spoilers, Modding (if there is an SDK)) unless it becomes evident that it is going to suck.
I just don't like Bloodlines enough to think it warrants its own forum, sorry.

Wouldn't there be all of about 15 - 20 threads before the conversations kinda died?

Might be true, but I don't protest that possibility. I protested the issue of worthiness, although that is admittedly a matter of taste. Which some people lack. *sniff*

Apparently.
