Dwarf Fortress > DF Suggestions
Suggestions Forum Organization
Faces of Mu:
That's a good idea, Kanddak. How do they decide what gets it's own category? (there's a name for this in statistics, but I can't remember what it is. It's to do with multiple regression....?)
Neonivek:
Anyhow I am back... Since I last posted 7 topics have new posts
They are
-Underground Diversity
-Surgery/Medicine
-Immigrant Requests
-Skills: Effects and skill transferance
-New Suggestion: Cleanliness Preference
-Iron Pyrite
-Racial Poison Resistance
Alright... So there we go... Those are the current Topics people are creating.
It is important to note.
As for Kanddak... Those arn't subforums to my knowledge and is a job for the Wiki and not Toady.
ERRR I wish I could be more constructive... Sorry

It's pointless to create a magic subforum right now, however imagine what's gonna happen when Toady will start to work on the Magic Arc someday. I suppose, that we will need to have a magic subforum when that happens. :D

Lets deal with it then.
Mind you... that when that happens the game will be far into Version 2 and the forums are bound to be popular enough to warrent forum splits at that time.
Also mind you... that is... Years away or possibly will never happen.

That's a whole wiki category that indexes forum threads about ideas that are frequently suggested in that game. Right now people tend to cite the dev goals and say "yeah, that's already on there as Core1234" or whatever, but when you go look up Core1234, it doesn't have informative links to the places it's been discussed on the forum.

Issues I see with that: The lack of keywords means that people will have trouble doing a visual search. I have no idea what people are talking about in those.
Basically short descriptions and keywords.
The other key is strict up-front rules about what goes in. Most of the previous linked list go down in flames when they collapse under their own weight. Most suggestions don't need a listing at all.
