New Game forum at Lazarus forums

[JC_]

This is no competition, this thread was missing and game related topic are scattered variously throughout the forum. You can see next 50+ sections which have bigger priority and next 30 with same priority.

It's in "Graphic and Multimedia" because it fits best. Suggesting it as the main section does not make sense and it doesn't have any big support I think.
Focus of this section can be presentation of projects (games, engines, libraries), programming advice, FPS/Lazarus/Pascal advertisement, but it depends on users, there is no leader.

That's all

You're right.

About new content, don't stress ourselves. I mean, we do what we can. And as far as we answer questions here or at Lazarus' forum we're right, aren't we?

Anyway I'll recommend people to join PGD as I did 'till now.

not enough free time: Probably the most common

I got distracted from all things Pascal for *months* by my custom portable PC project that eats time and money like no tomorrow. I'm already at 3x the expected budget at it only just begun. Would be much worse if I actually damaged my GTX1060 while cutting the unnecessary butt part off with a handsaw (too long; didn't fit).
Must pet my cats more, calm my nerves.

I'm not going to comment on some of what I read in that forum request thread because some of it rubbed me up the wrong way.

How about this for an idea... people want content right? How about I create a Patreon/MakerSupport account... people donate monthly and I give the amount of time to the site that I would have to spend working for my business to generate the equivalent income.

How would that go down do you think?

May be you should make a poll. I would actually help with a few money to keep this site running.

I have some experience in Patreon (comics, not gamemaking though) and I know how much hard it is.

As for Silver's comments about why people don't post... completely agree and I don't think he has gone far enough.

Some people on here can be downright rude about other peoples endeavours and attempts, sometimes being overly critical and picking fault with the smallest of detail. If people are lacking in confidence this will put them off and I will admit the thought of publishing stuff on the site has scared me knowing how picky and critical some people can be.
