    How do we do it? GModerator isn't exactly the best fit for this. A new forum section perhaps?

    Did you ever use Launchpad when you worked on gg2, Finny? The new devs basically made it so you can't post in the bug reports section anymore because they use that instead.

    ...But I'm getting into the affairs of another forum now. https://bugs.launchpad.net/

    Ah, I forgot that I talked with MM about it already. He was considering mantis back then.

    GetSatisfaction, even with it's flaws, filled both the roles of quick suggestions and bug reports.
    It just seems unnecessary to split community interaction to five separate sites.

    Well, many reported bugs seem to to be lost or forgotten in the masses of suggestions and discussions here on the forum. Some bug tracking system like Mantis would help a lot in that case since every bugreport has it's own id.
    Community interaction actually only happens on three sites: the comments on the devlog, the comments on the Google Moderator page and here on the forum. The wiki and the hopefully upcoming Mantis are no discussing pages. The first one is only one-way interaction (a user reads the wikipages) and the latter is mostly only between one user and the dev(s).
    I don't see a problem here with splitting the communication.

    Agreed. Or at least _actively maintained_ forum section.

    I think we'll put up Mantis in the next few days. Soldat uses that and it is quite good.
