Should Alesan99's Entities threads be in a separate subforum?
This includes main thread, maps and all AE specific threads.
This is intended to create some separation between official version and what is essentially the most popular mod.

are we able to request moving currant mappacks
AE is compatible with 1.6 mappacks/assets and SE enemies so separating AE may send the message that only new AE content should be used.
Course that could just end up not being an issue at all.

not in favor of this unless there's some tangible benefit such as moderation
i don't think it would help with readability or organization – other versions of Mari0 are not in enough use anymore to warrant a split, and version compatability is usually stated in the title/post
drawing a line between "official" and "modded" content seems like an odd choice when there's already a modding subforum and the official version isn't exactly getting new updates
plus some threads like the tileset repositorium have mixed content from multiple versions, that would be a nightmare to split up

I personally think it would be a welcome addition, since people looking for AE-specific mappacks, enemies, characters and tilesets can find those much more easily. I understand that 1.6/SE content might be compatible with AE, but the other way around isn't true. So whenever people make content specifically for AE, there'll be a clear distinction of whether it works with AE or not. Not to mention it'll improve searchability a ton.
I've got a few threads that contain a mappack in both SE and A99E versions; this is admittedly an edge case, but I'm not sure what subforum they'd go in. More broadly speaking, I think it's fine the way it is. I'm really with WillWare on this; it just feels kind of redundant.
I think the simplest solution is enforcing the use of prefixes in thread names, such as [AE]
It's not the prettiest solution, but it gives you some overview at a glance and it doesn't require some massive time investment.
I will start changing thread names myself soon and once I'm doing that I'll make a post about what tags to use.

one other thought before this goes away: maybe AE should be pinned in the modding subforum? like CE currently is
