I've asked for one, but I think we're going to leave it as it is for now, with the dynasties posted in the main forum - if they start to crowd out out other posts, we'll look at it again.

Thanks for the update on this (and all other posts.) It really is excellent seeing the developers having such an active role on the forums.

They won't crowd out the other posts, far too many of them. What will happen is, the other posts will crowd out the dynasty threads.

It's a shame they can't add a forum. Just have to take a quick look at OOTP's dynasty forum to get an idea what they can do for the game. They inspire a lot of people.

This.

It takes less than five minutes to add another forum. I don't see why it's such a big deal to add a sub-forum. It's harder than heck to find current dynasty reports.

They could just simply rename the Beta section. That was last added to in October last year.

Or Dynasty writers could just claim that area perhaps?

at the current time, there is 8 dynasty threads and 22 threads overall but yeah I can see why they don't want a specific spot on the forums for the dynasty stuff. Makes no sense at all to me. I give up.

A forum section would be the smallest step they have to take.. I think they should aim a lot bigger to promote their games in the long run.

Let people create their own blog with a single click straight from the game if they want. ....all people who do, will get their own tiny 'limited' website to control behind the OOTP toplevel domain inside a _dynasty section, where of course you can follow each other and read about how other gamers play the game.
You can even ask a small fee for hosting and support nobody would care if it works and people can alter-/personalize their website-/dynasty a little bit with custom banners and colors.
Looking even more in the future you could auto-connect an affiliate_ID to each blog created so when gamer X sells a game for you trough their website they get a discount at the yearly hosting costs.

This is all looking way in the future and would take lots of time to create but you could start small by giving them ( or only a small group of serious gamers at the beginning ) their own blog and let them create content for you in a fun way ( their own words ) not promotion or marketing talk nobody likes to read.

Imagine this scoring overview would be a hockey trade overview blog post simply created by Post Formats.
