As long as joeprogrammer and some of his friends continue posting questions in the new forum and you plan to consider answering them

Are you noticing something about that poll, guys? All the people who voted for the second option, "It's alright to keep discussions in their own language forums" are people who I suspect don't even program! I don't think their votes should count :mad:.

If members aren't posting about it within an active forum they sure aren't going to post about it within an inactive forum.

So go off ... find me those 10 threads, and I will be more than happy to use them to populate a new Game Development forum.

Found these simply by grabbing some threads off the first page of search results for "OpenGL". Oh and by the way, the last couple of threads shouldn't count; I just included them for your enjoyment.

To make an informed decision, I'm curious why iamthwee is so against the idea? Many other programming forums have game development forums which appear to be successful. We also don't currently have a place to specifically discuss OpenGL and DirectX.
