    ASWGL was about the time and AGN population of that time. We had more females and a bunch of regulars who had not known much of anything about the opposite gender and more of an extended-friends-and-family atmosphere. Of course sex and naughty talk are always favorites so a new red light forum might catch on but ASWGL is like our childhoods: long gone and best viewed through the haze of sentimentality.

    "Live and Let Live" is an excellent, tree-hugging philosophy, but it doesn't do much when the ones you refuse to kill are dragging you down with them.

    I agree completely. I know Liveplays are pretty popular these days, but I think they can go in VGD and ZCD. Both of those forums could use that activity.

    Same with ASWGL. Coming back to AGN in my mid 20s the ASWGL lacked any draw but nostaglia. If we had a booming younger userbase I would support it coming back.

    XD I highly doubt it. Maybe it's best left closed.

    Do you enjoy challenging RPGs? Do you enjoy dark storylines? You'll like my game. Go on, it's not very long.
    You can download my game for free right here!
    Feedback on it would be nice. It'll help with future projects.

    You know, when the bug forums were moved from the ZC Development category to the Zelda Classic category, the following bug categories just disappeared altogether: Bugs From Old Betas (not that it matters), Bugs in Limbo (not like this matters either), Quarantined Bugs, and Exterminated Bugs. But to be honest, the only problem I have with the absence of the Quarantined and Exterminated Bug categories is that, now we have no place to put any of those bug reports that have been labeled as fixed or not a bug, and it just clutters up all the bug categories that still exist today.

    These were deamed unnecessary. If we have a sudden explosion of bug reports and find a need for those then maybe one or both may come back. Bugs that are quarantined or exterminated can be labeled so in the title or in a reply.

    The one new forum I'd like to see under the General category is Table Games. It can be a catch all for everything from Advanced Dungeons and Dragons to Zombies!!!!. By which I mean, everything that is a game that isn't digital in nature.

    General entertainment fits fine in General Discussion and Video Games get plenty of love, but we have a distinct lack of discussion for non-digital content that I think could benefit from a separate subforum.

    This was my general thought stream as well for a time. I still want to think of something that nobody would think to post in GD, that when made visible and a place put right under peoples' noses, they'll think "Wait, I have something to talk about on this general subject!"
