Tutorial Section on our Forum?!

If I were to start writing wiki articles, they more than likely wouldn't fit into ZDoom's wiki. XWE and Doom Builder tutorials would probably not fit with ZDoom's wiki.

Thank you Weasel... Good to see someone is using their imagination rather than say what was already said. Is it only me and WW who think that an additional section would definitely not kill nor harm anyone? More - it would only help other people and give GZDoom deserved attention. The it doesn't fit here argument does not exist for me... but I can't fight it.

Exactly what I expected.

1. Stronghold dev forum is hidden and temporary.
2. I really don't want drdteam.org to be just another Doom-related site and Doom tutorials on general place would make it look like it is.
3. Wiki is definitely a better solution for tutorials than the forum. Plus I can make it so that you can use your forum account in the wiki, so you don't have to register again.

It already is a Doom related site. What exactly are you planning that would pull us away from such a classification?

@Corwin-perhaps it reminds of a "Doom-only" portal right now, because Gzdoom and DA taking up all attention, but mind you Grubber's, mine and Bio's site are certainly not Doom-only related. Plans Grub has for future is to make this place more varied, plus, including stuff for recent games as well (like his planned ut2k4 mods or mine hi-res textures I got here and there)

@Tutorial wanters-I'm sure if some tutorials have been WRITTEN in html first, without first asking for webspace for them and having nothing to show, Grub would reconsider providing space for them. Go write something. End of discussion for now.

Tutorials would be a great thing, honestly, something like this:

@ TORM667
That's exactly what I had on my mind. I'll take my chances on writing tutorials and put them on my site that changes it's purpose consnatly... But right now I'm outta DooM...

Good to hear, as this makes sense
