One reason that AB gets more traffic anyway is because of the blockheads looking for free games that used to be commercial titles, sometimes we get people sticking around here, many times it's those annoying twits who somehow can't decipher what the "protected" button means.
This site is a lot older and people are just more interested in this type of selection. I play lots of freeware games, but it's pretty much fact that there aren't going to be as many people being drawn to that sort of game. |

I think we should definitely have this discussion again. We haven't had this discussion enough

The mere fact that this discussion is brought on again and again shows that there are actually enough people who want that to happen.
I for my part don't think it would be such a great idea to bring the two forums together, though. Apart from the forum becoming too bulky and overcomplicated because of that, making two different communities clash together would be, as Horseman already said, a very bad idea. Not even talking about certain members from over there being brought in here again, which is an even worse idea... |

The reason I brought this thread up is i've usually just ignored that site complety, but now i've had a look at the older threads in the reloded forum its not bad. just need to get a small bug sorted out over there and I think i'll use it more often.
PS. also did a search for the previous threads about this similar topic (like I should have done in the first place:laugh and kinda agree they should probably be kept seperate.:amused:

The main difference is that 95% of the posts in AR are made by regulars, while in AB it is only a fraction of the total posts. |

There was a talk about it once in the former Dissident's forum if I remember correctly, also it was mentioned earlier on ShoutBox, before the new layout.

I'm pretty sure the reason the question has been "brought up" so many times is because one person posted it and then TONS of people came to scream "Hell no."

Indeed, well from what I can remember, the question probably has been posted about 3 times here back before the redesign and at least a couple of times at AR. But nevertheless, seems like the consensus to keep the two seperate still has strong support.

It's like trying to tie two strong branches of a tree together for no apearent reason, after they have grown in their seperate ways, risking in the process to break both of them off.
And just what do you see would the benefit of it be? I mean you'd just have more trouble searching through a bigger forum then through two seperate slightly smaller ones... oh, and you wouldn't have to log in twice (since that's a really big bother, right :notrust. |
