As you might have noticed, BA and all TA related projects except for CA have been removed from subforum listing in forum index. Now I will give Neddie the benefit of doubt and assume that he merely forgot to remove CA (since it is not IP free, not to be confused with zero-k which albeit trying is again by their own admission not IP free, anyway that is not the point of this topic).Neddie wrote:There is no technical limit. I removed all of the entries which depend on TA assets as they have less need for promotion and the list was somewhat long.
The purpose of a subforum listing is small and obscured in the forum index. It is a highly unlikely source of popularity. It is however a way to quickly access subforums that people regularly read.
I see no reason why every project shouldn't be listed for ease of access. It does not take up a lot of space, at most 2-3 extra lines would be added to current length if all projects were listed. The length is small and irrelevant to the look of the entire forum index.
People remember where the subforum link is located in the subforum listing, the order doesn't change so they can always go back to it without hassle. It is a good forum feature and I really can't find any rational reason not to use it.
I realize this is probably a minor problem from someones perspective, but small issues can add up when it comes to favoritism of certain projects over others.
