Should Thief 3 editing be merged into the Editor's Guild?
No.

Questions we want to hear from you about, (And what the answer will be if you don't tell us otherwise.)Should Thief 3 editing be merged into the Editor's Guild? (No)
I don't think merging the two makes any sense.

If it's deemed time for the Blue Sky/Looking Glass roots of this site to officially give way to a different modernized focus, with Thief editing as the major exception to the new course...
I'm not sure that's what's going on here. Rather the ubermoderators haven't quite got around to moving the gaming forum below the actual proper Looking Glass stuff yet.
But I'm sure they will very soon.
The things that ZB said sound sensible. Except he forgot to suggest making the FM fora gold.

Completely agree with Tannar and LarryG that merging "Thief 3 Editing" with "the Editor's Guild" would be a huge mistake. They might both be about editing Thief games, but the editors themselves have got nothing in common. You wouldn't throw in some Russian words in an English language dictionary, so why would you merge forums for two very different editors? It's already difficult enough to find solutions for your Dromed related problems in the Editor's Guild.
However, the most significant thing about this thread is to see ZylonBane use a happy smiley and
not grumble about something for once. At least we now know how to make him happy. :p

Don't jinx it.

Really like the majority of changes so far, nice work mods.
Another vote for NOT combining T2 and T3 editing. I can't see why you would, different games, different editors, different users.
Arx Fatalis looks weird under Classics. How about an "Arkane" forum under Gaming that covers Arx, Dark Messiah, and Dishonored?
Oh yeah, and remove CommChat. :ebil:

And we could do with some updated smilies to include a 'slap' one which I could post now. ;)
And by the way, is Southquarter sorted out now? I've started on the links again now this revamp is under way.

Kill the Biosuck forum. Kill it with fire. BS just doesn't deserve a place here.
Also, there's a rampaging robot in there.

I still think it'd be a good idea to merge all the "classics" forums into a single "Looking Glass Classics" forum, since the individual ones are so vanishingly low-traffic.
We decided against merging those forums together, but the Classics category has been shifted down so that the more popular forums are nearer the top of the listing.
British Open Championship Golf is really the only one which has never had a home. Attack Squadron falls under the Flight Unlimited banner effectively. The rest are ports of games written by other people, and the Looking Glass connection has pretty much only ever been a curiosity.
Also, they're
all old now. The "Thief" and "System Shock" series will always be separate, so we're never going to have a single forum to discuss Looking Glass games.

If we still wanna discuss Thief 2x can we do so in the Thief FM's forum?
