Site and Forum updates badly needed...

I think the fact that the Ootp 12 forum still reads, "Talk about the upcoming OOTP 12," says it all.

That's just a small thing, though. Let's be real. The site needs to be much more casual friendly. For one, the only place I've found to download patches is in the forums. For me, and everyone who may read this, that's no problem.

However, I think there are many people out there who would be interested in OOTP who may be intimidated or frustrated by the layout of the site as-is. The fact that they need to go through the forums to get updates and the latest news may be a big turn-off.

I won't even go into how hard it was for me to find out how to download older versions of OOTP when I wanted to, and I'm very good with computers.

That depends on whether someone on searching for OOTP ends up (through search) on the forums or on the main ootpdevelopments site. From there it's a quick click to downloads and at the bottom is a link to older versions.

This forum isn't meant to be the place you go to find patches/older versions. I'd think the main website would be where you'd want to be for that.

Personally, the only link I seem to have trouble locating when I need to provide it for someone is the How to FTP files to OOTP. I always search for upload and it's not part of the title; FTP is too short, and I can never remember how I found it. It's certainly not easily found within the Tech Support thread or its pages. Eventually I find it and I should probably just put the shortcut on my desktop.
