    [Revoke] Rule in Emu section regarding websites

    I don't think the rule to force websites that are related to World of Warcraft emulators is necessary

    While I realize you may be trying to prevent any unnecessary spam in those sections you have to realize that MMOwned users are trying to find relevant content in the Emulator sections regarding their emulators.

    Forcing websites to go into a completely different, although generically the same (since it is "website related") confuses users and also creates unnecessary division for developers to post their website releases.

    Also, I don't understand why you would force website developers to put their releases in a seperate section while application programmers have their own section for programs under the Emulators category when in theory they should also be posting their releases in the programming category below.

    My idea is this, rename the Programs section into a general "releases" section and have people tag their releases properly such as [Program] [LUA] [Web] etc which will reduce clutter and provide a proper source for emulator users to find their additional resource needs.

    or they could make a section called releases. and then under that section in sub-forums make websites, Lua, C++, SQL, etc sections for releases to be placed into

    In my opinion, web-based releases that are DIRECTLY related to emulators, such as ones that link to the database or are player tools, (Not just a new design on an existing player tool, ect) should be allowed, but would need to be moderated heavily. Everything else should be stuck @ bottom of MMOwned (in the html / php sections)
    And your other portion of your suggestion about the renaming, not only did it confuse me, but they won't rename it (cause it messes up google - try reading the suggestion stickies before posting.)
    As well, I will bet money that the moderators / admins will close this because it's an unnessesary suggestion and things are working just fine now. If you are too lazy to scroll down a little ways further, then you really don't want a new website, do you?

    It's not really that I'm lazy, it's just that it is confusing and it splits the section.

    Also, if we do go by this rule, why don't we stick all the database editors and etc in the section below as well because they are programs?

    Because we already have an emulator programs section because the quantity of programs released for emulation deserves it.

    I don't think we should merge WoW programs with non WoW programs. It would make it harder for mods to maintain, and programmers that don't program for WoW will be pushed aside because it's more of a WoW section.
