Considering people use it, and there''s no specific forum for it on here, it should be on here?

Do you see a Dark Basic only forum? what about a C++ only forum? why does VB deserve its own forum?

I realize that GameDev.net doesn''t have a VB-only forum. However, there is a great VB game programming forum at www.visualbasicforum.com.

At the time, Java wasn''t just a separate language but also a unique approach to application deployment, at least as far as the mass market was concerned. Developing games for it also introduced separate considerations, so a forum was created.

Happy?

Furthermore, it was the forum for one of our hosted sites.

We''re not going to add a VB forum.

I didn''t expect a VB forum, I''m just wondering why the Java one is still there.
