I know in the past I suggested we have added forums. I finally got it through my head that there will be no added forum. Is it possible we can have another website attached to this one. A game editor 2 forum maybe and the website struture would be like this

General
Tutorials
Game Development
Full Games
Iphone development

If a person wants to get better at coding , then the person pratices and evolves. The same thing with this website and company , if you stay the same you get the same result. I dont know the exact reason for the strict lets keep it this way ,but its not working at all. We should be busier in here and its not the product because game editor has way less bugs then game salad. Actually other than scaling and rotation which game salad is better , game editor is far more advanced then gamesalad. To tell you the truth the difference is night and day. With game editor the only limit is your own coding ability. With game salad there is a limit ,as you do not code but put blocks together.
The point being is Makslane is resistant to change but if we want a whole bunch of new users we have too. There is 2 very glaring problems with this forum. Number 1 is even though the tutorials section is on the front page , most people land here in the forum. They never get to see the tutorials page , therefore they ask questions that have been answered already or get fustrated and quit. Number 2 is where is the Iphone development forum?? People cant just guess that this works on iphone , especially when they dont see it in the front of the forum. Yes I know its on the front page but honestly who goes there??
Can we please have a game editor 2 forum?

No we actually need a game editor 2 forum. A forum like this forum , only with iphone development and tutorials forum added. And it needs to be on the front page of this website.

I think it is. There's no forums here for tutorials and iPhone games, and they won't be added anyway.

Makslane already said there will be no changes to the website many times. So if there are no changes , how are we to progress and get new people involved? Its impossible as we seen already. We need at least a tutorial forum so basic questions can be answered and new people wont quit all the time. I want to see this place grow as our tools are better than gamesalad and coco's 2D. Yet their website is organized better so they keep thier customers. We have the product ,now its time to shine.

Ok back on topic we dont need a fan site. We need another website Game Editor 2 that has a tutorial and iphone development section. The tutorials section is a must because we cant answer every question everytime. This way the new people will have a reference and will not quit. Yes for us 20-30 active members that get it this is easy. Lets be honest making games is far from easy , and some people need extra help that tutorials can give. Giving people codes they dont understand will not help them but make them quit fast. Iam telling you I used gamesalad and its no where near game editor status. You also ask Chai who tried it also. Iam pretty sure anyone with a Mac who has tried it will tell you the same thing.
