Here's just a suggestion I have. I think it would be better to call the "Language Agnostic Programming" forum something like "Language Agnostic Game Engineering"

For example: A math question related to game development... isn't exactly even programming for that matter. What are your thoughts?

You can at least extend the description, for example: "Discussion of game programming issues not related to any particular programming language e.g. mathematical, design and scientific issues involved with engineering video games and associated technology."

Interesting idea. I think that 'Other Languages' was added a long time after 'Language Agnostic' and they are a bit redundant together. Maybe 'Language Agnostic' should move to Game Dev Discussion?

Anyway, put it up on the board for the community to mull over. It's not up to me, the community runs this place, I just look after the server.

You better "mull over" and stuff like that, people! What are your thoughts?

"Engineering" feels a bit too far from "programming" imho, in the end, the goal is always to come to an implementation.
Moving it away from game programming may be a good move, although I don't see much confusion in that forum.
