  • OT: A slowdown in this forum?

    Is it me or have things slowed down? Taking a look at Civfanatics, I see a livelier suggestions section. What gives?

    Yep, I've been trying to get more activity going. I guess I'm going to have to think of more stuff, like traits for civs that aren't already in Civ3.

      Well, I'd be happy if the threadmasters would just summarize their threads so that I'd have something to work with.

      I think we have more than enough ideas now- we just need some people willing to work.

          Yeah, people are slow it seems... But DC, in your last version of the list, you still haven't included my AI list?

            Things should perk up as new information is released.

              When I post in a thread one of two things happens:

              1: My post is so intelligent that no one feels the need to post anything more on the topic.

              2: My post is so stupid that no one feels able to post anything more on the topic.

              Sometimes it takes a few counter posts first.

                Same here usually.

                    I see you have a good knowledge of yourself?

                      Well, it is strange because Civ III supposedly brought an influx of new players into the genre. When Civ III was in preparation, only fans of Civ I and Civ II were "available" for ideas. Now there are many more.

                      Could it be that people feel that Civ III is so good that it can't be improved much?

                        Did you see that? My last post stopped this thread for 10 hours!

                        It's incredibly awesome, however a lot is wrong with it, HOWEVER fixing anything bad might hurt something good, such as worker micromanagement.

                        Ha-ha! I said something incredibly smart! Take that, space coyote!

                          Don't worry, I have it on my computer- I was waiting until a few more people were done, but I'll update it in the next few minutes.

                          I would posit that people haven't yet found this section... despite its topping... and that people don't really understand the idea behind a list... or even THE list or think that developers actually listen to Civvers.

                          Most of the old Civ III List people have retired, become jaded, etc... and a lot of the newbies don't seem to come here

                            i think part of the slow down may be that the list doesn't seem to effect the developers at all. if they posted a few messages i bet people would be more interested. also it's so big and bloated i doubt many people can stand to read it(i know i can't).

                              Not only that, I'm sure that many of the proposals of this list are quite similar to the previous one.

                              Not that I don't appreciate the effort, mind you
