    Fail.

    That forum is dead. Why would most people want to go to a forum just to answer the same idiotic request over, and over, and over? Thus, the smart ones come here to request, as they get better answers from people who actually know MMOGs better yet don't have the time to answer those same idiotic requests over, and over, and over.

    I think the inactive forums, mainly the specific game forums that are dead, should be deleted. Then we would need a P2P MMORPG forum, and so forth.

    Thats the problem... they come here when they should be going somewhere else. You don't go to the dentist to have him fix your broken leg just cause the dentist gets more patients do you? Of course not!

    That's a terrible analogy. Comparing a dentist's job to a doctor's job is comparing apples and oranges. Comparing a request forum to a general talk forum, both on the same subject, is comparing grapes and raisins.

    A better analogy would be going to the emergency room for a cold. Sure it's not necessary, but it's a hell of a lot more convenient and you get better results.
