There are two points about the "TMW development" sub forum:
It is ambiguous:
First of all it's title: it should be called "Manasource" as it's relation to TMW is now only a dying client with limited support time (alongwith he point I mentioned before).
Second is more related to ethics and project/game consistency: Why (apart from historical and friendship reasons) should an external project have a sub forum?
If we follow o11c's logic:

Then TMW should offer Evolonline a subforum too. :wink:

History aside, the Mana project is relevant for TMW since it provides a client with which you can play the game (which is officially supported and still maintained, btw). You can't compare this with Evol Online or Land of Fire, both of which are simply projects similar to TMW.

Apart from that the Mana project is developing the new server that was previously being written as part of The Mana World before. Having the server as a separate project is meant to allow collaboration with other projects similar to TMW, but it does not mean that there may not still be a future for TMW based on this new server. Some of us are still interested in trying to make that happen.

Btw, I can't speak for anybody else, but I'm actually not against Evol Online or Land of Fire having a subforum here.

Thanks but Evol have already a forum, and I see from a bad eyes to mix other games or different project in this forum. :)

I think we should have one general forum for "other games based on TMWA or ManaServ"
