Civ4 Subforum?

[dojoboy]

Is it time for a Civ4 subforum?

I'm finding myself reading more and more over there these days, partly because I'm playing Civ4 on my Dell laptop (school issue).

Is it possible to link the Mac subforum over there as well?

I know, what's a few extra clicks matter, but.... .

I asked Thunderfall a week or so back. He doesn't seem keen, as the Mac traffic is so light. I was going to wait until Mac OS X Civ4 gets enearer to reality and then try again.

Re links - I use Safari with the bookmarks bar along the top, working as a favorites menu bar. One click gets me to any location on any web site where I'm a frequent flyer. CFC navigation from one part fo the forums to another is never going to be as good as that. I assume you can do something similar in Firefox if you must use a PeeCee to browse.

Yep. I do the same with Safari and Firefox. That means one of those links has to go,..... Hm.

Why? Favorite links aren't rationed?

They are drop down menus. Each one can have as many links as you can fit in the screen height - more if you don't mind scrolling the menu. And you can have submenus .... And if you have more favorites along the window frame than there's room for then you get a chevron menu at the right hand end to get to the rest of them.

Alan, I'm very lazy. You're asking to me to click and scroll a submenu.

... I'm even lazier ... you're asking me to get TF to set up a special link to here from the Civ4 universe
