Plans to implement a msg board for companies?

by John Hsia · in General Discussion · 05/28/2001 (10:50 am) · 5 replies

I've created a company in garagegames awhile back and started a project. I think it would be a good idea, not sure if it's in the works, but would be great to have a message board for each company created. This will allow more teamwork, instead of through emails, or possibly going to another site to use a msg board system.

If a company is serious, they will make their own forums on their own site, whether it be purchased or what-not.

There are a couple of outfits around that will provide cheap hosting for indie developer sites.

I happen to own one of them :)

Here is a very nice free message board. I personally think it is better than UBB.

Thanks for that link Tim. You might want to add it to resources. I would like to have a space on GG site that would be dedicated to the game being distributed on it. Something similar to planetquake, shogo, halflife .. maybe ? The developer could get webspace for the game and have a nested spot within the larger GG structure. More a community within GG for a particular game. Maybe .. gameat.garagegames.com ?

These are great ideas. We have some plans for adding this type of functionality to the site. It isn't even that hard to do, but we have to get the V12 out the door first (which happens VERY SOON).
