You know, new people (like me) made it more active, we just gotta make it happen again

There are two ways to revive the forums:
1) Make ID popular again (through some miracle)
2) Change the main purpose of this forum
Honestly, I only see the second one working. The more time drags on, the more WCIII slowly dies, and ID with it. And the only real way I see of making ID popular is... well... remaking it. We all know ID as it stands has gotten stale. This is due to [opinions]how bad of a game Island Defense is. The only way to win as Titan is to hope your playing against unskilled builders. That's it. If the Titan happens to be against builders who can deny properly and keep him away from feed, he loses. It doesn't involve and skill until end-game for the titan, in where it's drawn to long ass sieges unless he was overfed by *gasp* bad players. Also, the continuing gold penalties make it harder and harder for the titan to get through the bases, turning it into one big stalemate unless enough builders survived to overwhelm the titan with merchant units and titan hunters.[/opinions] If Island Defense is to survive, it needs a COMPLETE overhaul, not just adding/tweaking mechanics.

The forum didn't recover in may 2010, Panda's last forum was just closed down and everyone migrated here in an instant. |

At this point, (the current) Island Defense will either be remade or released to the public.

I would if I weren't working full time so I can buy some new shit for next year.
If anyone is interested in helping, I'm considering making it more open than the previous "Island Defense" was.

How is the "new" Island Defense going to work? How is going to avoid many of the pitfalls that the current ID has?

Actually, the only thing I think we can do to keep ID alive is to rebuild it for SC2. Rebuilding it for Wc3 might extend it's life by a couple of months to half a year, but rebuilding it for SC2 can create an entire new era. |

The SC2 editor is shit, and Blizzard has denied any requests to make it less than so.
