    Merging the Civ3 general forum with the PtW forum ?

    Hello,

    I have set up this poll yesterday about merging these two forums, and it seems the users are nearly unanimous with the suggestion.

    Is it possible to merge the two forums please ?

    Merging those two forums is a good idea as there's now no real reason to keep them seperate. At least not that I see.

    Never fear H Tower, one less Civ3 forum is better than one more

    I'm for a mergeing as the activity has gone down, and that it's just harder to monitor all the forums.

    We might see more civ2 players as well.

    No downsides.

    Merging the General and PtW forums would be good. It would provide possible space for a PtW CityStates Democracy game forum.

    Yes, we need to. Discussion in both forums is nearly identical, and only adds clutter.

    Ahhh, some of these.. people, are just jealous that Civ3 is a big enough event that we can sustain a multi team demo game with a hundred or so participants. Not to mention that the Civ3 multi site demo game is going very well. What ever happened to the Civ2 version of that? Oh, wait! Let me guess... dead in the cradle.

    CTP2? Puleeaaase! If the 8 people still playing it got together they could maybe get a good PBEM going.

    Civ III newbies.

    As for the actual topic...

    I second that. One Civ III forum less is better than nothing.

    Merge them, real clutter right now for the threads in PtW forum aren't PtW specific, and traffic is the same...

    NYE, there are more CtP2 players, and the community is MORE THAN alive .

    Who gave this thread one star? It's talking about getting rid of Civ3 forums! That's awesome!

    It would provide possible space for a PtW CityStates Democracy game forum.
    another demo game by trip?

    Only 92% voted yes... you need at least 99%





    btw, I voted yes
    This space is empty... or is it?

    Update :
    Both forums have been merged, along with the "Civ3-civilizations" forum One of the mods closed both PtW and Civilizations forums, made them subforums of the Civ3-general, and moved the most recent threads to the general forum
