Hopefully it doesn't go away forever, it's an incredibly useful resource for newbies like me.

The Source Filmmaker section has been hidden in today's Facepunch update. It might be removed, it might stay. I mirrored the faq as a general SFM megathread over in Valve discussion.

If past experiences with FP forum changes are any indication, it's time to archive things before it's deleted from the database completely. I find unpopular decisions are met with a hardened resistance and a steadfast hold to the change. This is almost as bad as when we lost subforums for model and map releases, or gmod comics and movies before that. I hope I'm wrong, but don't count on SFM coming back as more then a usermade megathread.

Why would garry delete the sfm section?

rip sfm forum

I just want to know what the logic behind this was.

How do I keep the 12-year-olds contained without harming anyone with severe OCD?"

Does that mean we can post our SFM stuff in the Gmod Subforum?

no use the sfm thread in valve steam powerplay

Are we going to get some information on this or will it just stay hidden? There are a lot more useless sub-forums around.

We'll just run around like headless chickens until the boundaries are marked by the fallen accounts of the unlucky.

"Hey the SFM section is getting less attention. Let's just remove it all together and hide it from the public. That'll surely fix the problem." They even kept Urban Exploration which is almost completely dead. Sorry, I know the thread is a couple days old but I still feel like it needs to be addressed. The section was actually a big part of the SFM community.

Yeah get rid of the Urbex forum.
