Wouldn't a game that suppose to be in development by OOTP be considered a good topic for "general discussion" section? I guess not since my post was moved to some hidden forum without answer.

If you didn't see the responses to it, FOF is no longer associated with OOTP and its developer sold it off.
And threads that ask about OOTP developing other games invariably devolve into talk about non-OOTP games which gets them moved to OT.

No, it's pretty much dead. My guess is covid may have taken some of the people who posted there. Or maybe they just moved to other forums. There's a few active threads, but from the titles my guess is they're just nonsense.
I don't know about McGraw. I do miss a lot of the people that used to post there (I started to make a list, but it was becoming too long and I didn't want to leave any of the best out), but most of them are long gone.

Yeah, sometimes I just want to ask if anyone here has tried the latest ***whatever*** and it turns into nothing but insults and shouting as people hijack the thread to argue about whatever politician was trending twitter that day. Off Topic no longer equals Politics... if they are separate then I would be interested as well.

Yeah, I liked asking the odd question or posting a random opinion, but with so few active people now it seems pointless.
OT and politics/religion was separated for a long while (there was an OT Debates subforum), but some people didn't like what little was posted there and they got it closed. I thought that stuff would then just get posted elsewhere here, but instead it looks like some people just left OT altogether.

That link takes me to a page that says "File not Found". Maybe something that was moderated in the pass and is no longer accessible by normal users? Dunno... but clearly nothing there if "https://www.ootpdevelopments.com/board/announcement.php?f=25&a=12" was the intended link.

Interesting. The first link with "board" in it redirected to the new link with "forums" in it, but the second link, the one you quoted, doesn't. I fixed it.
I posted about broken links recently. I didn't realize that some were being successfully redirected though.
