IMO it should be a free content forum-indie games included.

free content as in free whatever you post :P
i.e. a video games board [board as in the place where you post the topics, not the whole forum :p - the term gets misused often], a gadget board, mobile device board, a development board, server administration boards, whatever people talk about these days. free software will always find its home at repositories like sourceforge--stuff like that should stay where it belongs. but a free nerd discussion forum would be nice.

Better idea! Let's just remove "General Discussion" and watch most of the members disappear! :D

Was that intended as sarcasm to my reply? I'm not saying remove general discussion, i'm just saying pull the plug on Zelda Fan Games :P Make the whole forum general discussion!

I think focusing on indie/general game development would be better. Things are just getting too stale right now.. I've had this opinion/thought since I took ZFGC over last sept. :p

Yet here we are!

I'd like to suggest two things:

1-We could make a second community project (an indie one), and change ZFGC's name to "[Name of the project] Central" or "[Name of the project] Forums". Doesn't matter if 40% of the projects or something like that are zelda fangames.

2-(This may be sort of pointless, but anyway...) Split ZFGC in two different sites: "General Discussion" and "Projects and Resources". Just because there are too many people who don't read the Projects and Resources topics.

I don't think making any of these sorts of changes would be worth it.  Seems like an attempt at a "quick fix" to me, we're still going to be the same on the inside.

Agree,
But really, we don't want anything from ZFGC, we should think more what ZFGC has given us and how to improve it =).

What needs to be fixed besides the lack of interest in Zelda fan games outside of this community? It would be cool if ZFGC grew and picked up more active members :P
Its not really a quick fix, its an opportunity. An opportunity to make ZFGC appeal to a bigger audience.

You've never played a Zelda game? o_O ... I wonder why you registered here.

I discovered this site because of OoT2D, but I only registered because there were other programmers here (ZFGC was the first forum I joined, lol). But I only remained here because of the community, too, otherwise I'd have quit and joined an "FGC" or whatever.

Well, I lied. I played Oracle of Seasons a couple of times and I sucked.

I know this is a bit of a longshot (no OoT reference intended), but maybe do a half-join with another zelda website?
There are loads of Zelda websites, Zeld aWorld, Zelda Universe, Legends and Adventures... Im sure lots of the people who post fan art and fan fic on there would be intreseted in ZFGC and it might inspire some people to try and make their own games.
I used to just visit Legends and Adventures and read the Fan Fic, then I haerd about OoT2d somewhere, and by then had fallen in love with the world of Hyrule.

But seeing as they're seperate websites I see how this could be impossible.

Pre-me taking over, I suggested doing this with my zelda website 'tloza'. Kirby liked the idea, no one else did.

Just maybe let the website post some of the finished games (wit hthe makers permission) and let them advertise here?
