    Just want to see if anyone would be against this. I know its new and not that many people play it as opposed to other games we discuss here but I still like the idea.

    And if you're against this please tell us why. :)

    Sounds good to me. Thought about a forum or subforum when I bought the four pack a couple of weeks ago. This is one game that I know forum members are playing:).

    We have 40-something forum sections. That doesn't seem like a little much to anybody else?

    I think a Terraria forum would be nice, but perhaps the overall structure of the forums should be looked at a little bit? No offense to anyone, but the most forums I've seen in a site before GO is 17. (with some subforums)

    I think it might be a good idea to make more subforums, and switch some of the forums (which are meant for large, broad topics) into subforums, and make things a little easier to find, nice and categorized, and not cluttered.

    I agree, I think it's 45 forum sections. One thing that could easily be split up into subsections would be the specific Game Forums. You could take Age of Conan, Warhammer Online, Eve Online, WYD Global, and Magic World Online, and have them as sub-forums in the "Other Online Games" section. This turns 6 game forums into one.

    You could also take Ogre Wars and Triple Triad and make them both sub-forums under something like an "Ogre Games" or whatever. This would remove another. There are lots of other things you could do as well, these are just basic ones. I know games like Age of Conan and Eve Online are still played so the subforums would still be here, but the amount of members that are players is nowhere near as large as something like Runescape, yet they are "weighted" equally.

    I agree with pretty much everything said here. A good deal of the game-specific categories don't seem all that active nowadays.

    terraria seems to be racking up more attention (in my opinion) than minecraft did recently a few months ago, and it got a new subsection.

    I support a terraria section.

    Ogre has said before that many forums (especially the less popular games) could be combined, but the old forums could cause 404 errors for the forum when moved. If anybody can solve that problem, I am sure he would combine many forums.

    I voted yes.

    Is it played by enough members here to warrant that?

    Back when it came out and this thread was still new, maybe. Almost certainly not any more.

    Voted yes as I love this game still but honestly no. I agree with Pure, I doubt enough people play it anymore.

    Stop supporting is such an ugly word for it :p, more like 'moved on to the next project' but now with the success of the console version the lone dev left and owner of the game is working on a new update.

    Even though I think that Terraria is a great game I voted for no. It doesn't seem like many people on GameOgre is playing Terraria. I'm not completely sure though, but I don't really notice anyone talking about Terraria, like they talk about for example World of Tanks or Neverwinter

    Yes, Neverwinter has a better chance at its own forum:).

    I do agree we add this subforum, although I think it should be a REAL forum in the game sections

    Not very many Terraria threads as it is, Sub Forum makes more sense unless it becomes really active in my opinion. It's great they've started updating it again though, it just sucks the break in updates really killed it's momentum. Terraria is an awesome game though.

    I agree with you also it ain't as popalur as minecraft where you would really want a real forum. So anyway a sub-forum is nice enough on its own :)
