I'm leaving this forum, does anyone have experience with a good programming forum and would like to recommend it? |

This forum happened. It's not worth it anymore. |

Did it log you out during post composition? "For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow."-Ecclesiastes 1:18 |

Forums are outdated, just use stackoverflow for actual programming questions and then twitter and co. for the rest. (Also, just out of curiosity, what specifically do you think is wrong with allegro.cc? It's not been updated for about as long as forums have been out of style - but it still seems to be the best as far as forum software is concerned.) -- |

In this world you will be disappointed everywhere and in every forum. People are intelligent here, maybe it is because of the lack of womans. Probably you want to go for your own offenses.

Are you campaigning against this forum now? I don't think you can expect everybody to magically stop posting here, transfer to a new forum at the same time, and everything will be rainbows and unicorns on the new site. For that you'd need some consensus. If your campaign has any effect at all, then most likely you'll end up with two fully dead forums instead of one half-dead forum. -- |

Programming using what, exactly? Personally, I use PHP/MySQL + Web at home and C#/MSSQL + Web at work and find StackOverflow beats out any forum. The forums that I do go to have almost no sense of actual community and are centralized around specific libraries/concepts and don't branch out much beyond that. If you're using C/C++ and Allegro, I would strongly recommend the Allegro.cc Game Developing Community "He who controls the stuffing controls the Universe" |

If one has enough from Allegro.cc he can simply not visit it some time. Why are some people so knotted? It's complete freedom here. I have seen some people leaving, sure they will regret it from time to time. And Matt is doing a good job. Since i am here i can't remember anything he did wrong.

/me looks at site title... "allegro.cc - game developing community network". So... it does not say "game developing community network restricted to use of the Allegro library, all deviants will be shot". It might bring some fresh air to open up to other libraries. I don't see a reason the community itself can't still be called "allegro.cc". --- 0xDB | @dennisbusch_de --- |

I don't recall anything being "shot" here. Perhaps one day we will find that the human factor is more complicated than space and time (Jean luc Picard) |

No one really left this forum. They got shot. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Years of thorough research have revealed that what people find beautiful about the Mandelbrot set is not the set itself, but all the rest. |

Yeah, took an absence once -- got shot. Took an absence then again -- got shot again. One would think I should've learned my lesson. Back on topic: I don't know if gamedev.net is still active, didn't happen and is still worth it, but you could give it a shot. _______________________________ |

Now that we are on the forum topic... Matthew, you designed this forum from scratch or you based the design on something else?

TIGsource? Not sure about the programming topics but I do like paging through the devlogs from time to time.
