Azazello's ideas are nice but they may require too much moving threads around while a simple name change seems fairly easy (I'm no forum moderator and I'm wondering what happens to thread links when forum name is modified~) and less time consuming.

[Suslik]

Seems logical to me as well.

Okay...

How many Yays do we need for a name change? 10? 20? 30? 100? 1000?

We have 10ish bods now (including don't minds and people wanting even bigger changes... ) who want a name change.

Yay or Nay to a name change... just add a reply below.

[dreamer2007]

Yay!

[Anduin Shadow Mantle]

Okay. Back from a two week vacation and... No more yays...

Hmmm... Seem to be flogging a dead horse here.

Lots of yays but I don't think anyone is really that bothered... Oh well...

[ScuD]

Aye, change it. It will make more sense.

@ People in charge
You know we're gonna keep bumping this thread forever unless you change the name, right? Just rename it "BWP and Mega Mod Help" as suggested in the first post.
Oh, and while we're at it, here's another suggestion. If possible, you should abandon the alphabetical order of the subforums and move the BWP/Mega Mod entry up the ladder to be the very first of the subforums. I guarantee the amount of people with BWP questions mistakenly posting in the Big Picture and BGT subforums will drop by 84.71 percent.

I started a trend here, though I believe it's not the first time this is requested. I think the confusion with posting in BP or BGT forums is because of the acronyms and the old case of BP being the megamod amalgamer (if that makes sense to anyone but me

[Anduin Shadow Mantle]

Please... someone... Put in a new item called "Belegs Staff of Amalgamer." It should cast a confusion spell on the pc and all npc's on the map...

Anyway. Bump the thread to the top again. We want to change the name to BWP and Megamod help. It just makes sense. Give us a Yay!

Could we put in another item please. How about "The Mace of Sense", casts clarity on striking.

EDIT: I knew what you meant Beleg

Fishystick! (I mean YAY!... I mean BUMP!)

I'll vote Yay as well ... I think I'm about the only one left who still does manual installs these days

[Theon]

I unearthed my password to give a yay.
So Yay!

[Malatar]

I'd vote for a name change as well...

Also, to the people who've picked up the Big World Setup program... From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU! The .bat file worked well enough, but if you have a lot of choices it's so much easier to set it up once in BWS and then save my selection for some other time. Anyway, I'm grateful, and very appreciative.

I'm also guilty of that...

If doing manual installs is wrong, I don't wanna be right!

So thats 5 wanting a name change... (Although maybe a post to confirm from Miloch and Ascension64 would be safer than assuming!)

Heh, I didn't know anyone was waiting for a response from me (didn't even look at this yet for that matter). Maybe SHS should implement the "name dropping" type of thing the BGEE board has (though IP.Board probably doesn't have it). Anyway, I agree this should probably be the BiG World Project/Megamod forum or something. It *might* keep folks from posting BWP questions in the BP forum. (For what it's worth, I think horred or someone also suggested renaming BP a while back, but I don't think that will happen.)

Also, maybe appoint some more subforum admins who are actually still active would be nice (can't claim I am much, but certainly no one's seen seanus for ages?) so that people can actually move posts where they belong once in a while. There's a whole slew of posts in the BP forum that have nothing to do with it and should've been moved to the BWP/megamod forum ages ago.

[Anduin Shadow Mantle]

Miloch... Was that a Yay! or a Nay

I think Beleg offered the idea to avoid those posts in the wrong place in the first place. Apparently an 84.71 drop in mistaken posts will result, but I reckon its closer to 85%...

EDIT: How many more posts do we need? Or is this gonna be a lingering ghost thread that haunts the page for ALL ETERNITY!!! BwaBwahahaha!!

[Beleg33]

I think that's a yay

[dreamer2007]

He said "I agree this should probably be the BiG World Project/Megamod forum or something" so its definitely a yay .
