[Forum] A suggestion to this forum

Looking in here I see alot of requests that could be used in normal Zdoom and should be requested there as well. So my idea:

Sticky up a guideline to feature requests, stating that if the feature request contains stuff which can be put into Zdoom as well (I.e nothing that's related to GL stuff), that the thread will be closed and the requester will be given a link the Zdoom forum feature requests instead.

Most people here are aware of the possibilities and impossibilities of zdoom and Gzdoom and I think this way it will clean up alot of crap in here.

Thoughts?

Not every body has a ZDoom forums acount, since it requires E-Mail activation. Good thing this website don't. So, I don't think that is a very good idea. Keep it cool. Keep it DRD.

No, but the ZDoom forums aren't nearly as friendly as these forums, or so it seems, considering that I haven't really given anyone ammo to shoot at me over there

That's why i always prefer this place over zdoom forum

Well, we (mods) want to keep this place friendly in the first place, not "obey the rules or get banned" type communism (no offense to Zdoom forums, just a contradiction to underline the comparison

)

A very good idea IMO. Obvious is that the main difference between Gz and Z is the renderer so stuff like "support interpolated animation for models" will fit here, but "+DESTROYINWATER" would be better for ZDoom. I'll leave the final decision to Graf, though.

EDIT: Grammer. Oh Lord..

Generally I agree that non-renderer related suggestions should be made at the ZDoom forum. Even if some people might find this inconvenient, it has the advantage that Randy can see these suggestions as well and implement them if he feels like it.
