Seems that there are no active topics anymore? And some of the newer topics aren't here anymore? Or am i just imagining this?

DST has quite an imagination. Could be that. \


But why does 'active topics' result in a page saying '0 results found'?

the last 2 weeks have been different.I think the webserver isnt holding the memory like it used too.Now it seems to delete new and active topics quickly.Iam not sure but whatever host this site has regulates the data this site can hold.Probaly we are reaching the limit,so it re-alocating the memory maybe makslane is doing an overhaul and start deleting old and useless post to save memory space.If that happens the search engine will work better and save from reposting same topics over and over

I´ve moved the site to the sourceforge and update the phpBB forum.
There are some issues I´m trying to solve.
For example, new users can´t register :-(

I hope fix this issues soon.

Also, maybe we should have the option to have resolved topics or not

alot of people are asking for help but their topics get ignored.........

Ok lets all be honest here ,there is too much clutter and junk.To help makslane out i think all of us should go through the forum and send makslane links to forums that should be deleted.Game Editor is too bloated and its costing makslane alot of money just to keep the site online and running.This website would be more efficient if we delete alot of useless posts and threads.Game Editor is no ones playground people need to stop posting like they own the site.This site is for information sharing on game development and game theory.Its not for repeated posts just to feel important.Makslane been very nice to all of us because he hasnt complained about it yet.But lets all be adults and start showing some respect for this website.If this continues Game Editor will disappear,which will be a shame because he is a legend.He made a compiler that exports games to 4 different platforms.Who can brag and say they have a compiler like that
