!!SCIENCE!! Child Forums
« on: May 19, 2011, 09:06:18 am »

Well, i've seen things go around here very nicely, but whenever we see people making !!SCIENCE!!, it's all very scattered and most of the time, we don't acknowledge things that are very important to gameplay, i know it won't mean a change in the game itself, but i'd pretty much love to see !!SCIENCE!! reports nice and tidy placed under child forums in Dwarf Mode, Adventurer and Modding Forums, so people could help each other improve the game and gameplay by toying with the in-game physics.
I hope to get some support to this endeavour =P

I think it's the way towns develop now. In the beginning, people move into a town. Then they start producing tables, which results in more and more tables. Soon tables represent a significant portion of the population, they start lobbying for new laws and regulations, putting people to greater and greater disadvantage...

I concur, we should all decide upon a place to make this.

What about a child !!SCIENCE!! forum, where we can talk about all sciences involving the unfortunate wounding of children?  :P

I thought this would be a suggestion about a children-only/oriented sub forum so that we could use young minds for amoral experiments.

I'm kind of disappointed, now.

Nice one, not sure when I'll be feeling like killing a baby but these things are good to know.
This is why we can't have nice things... someone will just wind up filling it with corpses.

I agree, this would be great. I do enjoy reading the scientific studies of others, and one day hope to do some !!SCIENCE!! of my own.

I don't know if separate in all three would be the best way to go. Would they be popular enough separately?

What I'm most worried about is new subforums going the way of the Wiki Discussion forum. Not so very busy.

Could be worthwhile as a new forum though.
