Video games sub forum

[Alessia Starfurr]

A spscific video game sub-forum for  video games on all systems pc, console, etc. I feel the need for this specifc  section for all of us furry gamers here would be very helpful for organizing groups in these games were for example Warframe you can get benifits from such groups.

A better way to socialize....

too broad

[Timmy Fox]

How is it too broad though? It's a subforum for all things gaming-related, just like what you originally described.

Also, to be fair, it's not very active either so I don't think splitting it up into multiple subforums is a good idea as that will just create several subforums no one ever posts in.

for a good example we have two traditional tabletop games that can also be played on a video system Battltech and Warhammer 40k there may be more. but now i have to label my topic to difrentiate between the two... also this kinda makes one or the other harder to find.

So .. you're saying we need a separate tabletop board that would most likely have no more than like 2-3 topics in them only so you can avoid calling your thread(s) "Warhammer 40K (video game)" and "Battltech (Video game)"?

Or, if the video games are based on the tabletop versions, why not just have a thread that covers both versions if they are essentially the same game?

I'm not quite sure why it is a problem, especially as it appears neither of these games (both video game and tabletop) have ever had any thread dedicated to them in at least the last 5 years.

Back when the addition of tabletop games was suggested to this board, we had discussed whether or not to keep video games and other types of games in a seperate board or whether to simply add these two topics together. We opted-in for that last one, since the board doesn't have that many threads. The board is still mostly video games either way, there haven't been all that many threads about tabletop games.
If there are games that have both a tabletop and a video game version, you can keep those apart with adding a tag specifying which of the two versions you mean, like how Timmy suggested.

Thanks for your input, but unless the board gets more traffic it's probably better for the forums if it stays as-is.
