Forum OrganazationAs has been talked about, I think we should organize a new type of forum. Obviously, easier said than done, and some of you may think it is unecessary, but let's go over why I think it is necessary.
1) Eventually, with new forums being added, the forum will get too crowded.
2) If you want members to join the site, know this. When they see a specific forum, they feel like they need to like every single game, anime, and manga we have to join this forum. Obviously it's not true, but it is commonly the way people see things.
3) It would better organize the forum. (I know, cliche reason)
4) It would be easier to get through the forum.
5) It will make the forum load faster.
Of course, it is easier said than done. Now admins, when you read this, please don't change the forum right away. If we did, we could do what EO did, and delete all the forums. It is a delicate task, and I know how to do it, so if it is to be done, It would be best that I do it. Not to brag or anything, but I have experience.
How I suggest we do it, of course, is a completely different idea:
Category: Rules
Forum: Clan Rules
Category: Clan Discussion
Forum: Clan Discussion
Forum: Clan Bank
Forum: Clan Business
Forum: Suggestions
Forum: Off Topic(Completely Optional, but I think we should bring it back)
Category: Games
Forum: Nintendo
Forum: Sony
Forum: Xbox(Of Microsoft, but I think Xbox is cooler)
Forum: Other Games
Category: Anime
Forum: Anime TV
Forum: Manga
Category: Miscelaneous
Forum: RPG
Forum: Book Forum
Forum: The Front Page
And that's what I think. You must understand that if people think this is a good way of things, then I will change it with the approval of all three admins. Admins, if you approve, please PM me. Once I have approval from all three, I will start. Because the forum will be in a delicate state while this is going on, and it may take a half hour-to an hour, I will have to take the board offline temporarily.
Thank You!

Note the subtle differences, like Legend of Zelda instead of LOZ, or the lack of "discussion" behind the forum names. Or he big differences like the catogorizing of games in the three major systems, or the complete lack of Anime discussion. I did this because this is a gaming empire, and topics could be created for these in Clan Discussions if absolutely neccessary. As I don't want people like Kaen getting "master" titles from a TV show, for how are you a master of a TV show? Plus this is GAMING Empire. You probably won't listen, but those be my suggestions.

Don't suggest here, please. I want to discuss my plan.
|
General Ceyrox
|
Selfish... MY plan, I want to discuss MY plan.
|
Lord Storms
|
I like your plan, Banryx. Except perhaps we whould add subforums to the game forums and I don't want to remove the Roleplaying forum.
|
Lord Abyss
|
ok, I won't
|
Colonel Banryx
|
All right, all I need now are Abyss and EO's approval. Hopefully I can start this weekend.
|
Lord Storms
|
Fine, I will.
Why the heck are there TWO Graveminds?!?
|
General Ceyrox
|
Yeah? I don't like the lack of Role Play either.
|
Lord Storms
|
I read yours. I still like Banryx's better, but it reminded me Banryx needs to add an Other Clans forum.
Wait a sec... Why the heck don't you want to change the forum?!?
|
General Ceyrox
|
Why is his better?
|
Lord Storms
|
It's more organized.
Storms has a new typing style!
|
General Ceyrox
|
His post was more organized, I'll edit mine and make it more organized.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Yours just has too many forums. We need less, so it's easier to manage.
|
Lord Storms
|
But yours had no changes to the forum...
|
Dread Abyss
|
I like Banryx's idea, but I want the Role Playing forum to stay.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Would you want that in the Anime topic or in miscellaneous?
|
General Ceyrox

Mine? If so that proves you didn't read it. I even pointed them out at the end. Like the lack of Anime discussion, or The Organization of Xbox, Playstation, and Nintendo.
|
Lord Storms
|
Miscellaneous.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Fixed it.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Agreed.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Now all I need is EO's approval, and I'll start after school on Friday.
|
NS_Venom
|
May I ask for what Banryx?
|
Colonel Banryx
|
If you read the first post, you would know.
|
Lord Bunnies
|
reading the first post in a thread is too much work.
|
General Ceyrox
|
It will organize the forum!
|
Colonel Banryx
|
I'd really just like a "yes" or "no".[/u]
|
NS_Venom
|
Let me get this straight, you need to kick everyone off, then redo everything? If we don't lose our posts, topics, etc. I'm fine with it I guess, but give me some time to finish up things here.
|
Lord Bunnies
|
he doesn't need to kick anyone off, and nothing will get deleted.
(unless he deletes it himself)
|
NS_Venom
|
Ah, ok.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
But, since while I'm creating and moving everything, people posting will mess things up, it would be best if the board went offline for a little bit.
|
Lord Bunnies
|
goood point
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Yay! So, do I have approval from all the admins now?
|
Lord Storms
|
Yes.
|
NS_Venom
|
Sure, just wait til later.
|
General Ceyrox
|
Give us a time we can't go on.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Starting now. Anyone on, please, log off.[/quote]
|
Lord Kaen
|
o.o.....-logs off-
|
Lord Storms
|
Not bad. A couple things that need fixing, but I'll do that.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
I don't think I was done yet. But now I am, I think...
|
Lord Kaen
|
Nice job...
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Thanks. 
|
Lord Storms
|
Spelling error corrected. Now all I'll do is add a couple subforums.
|
General Ceyrox
|
Come on Storms... add those subforums!
|
Lord Storms
|
Done. Now I've gotta move a few threads...
|
General Ceyrox
|
You've only added Pokemon and Mario. What about LOZ, Metroid, Super Smash Bros. etc.?
|
Lord Storms
|
Forgot about LOZ. The rest don't need subforums.
|
General Ceyrox
|
Also.., in Resistance you spelt Chimera wrong.
|
Lord Storms
|
Oops. I used the spelling from Greek mythology...
I'll fix it.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Chimera's Greek? I'm pretty sure it's either spanish or mexican, since it's origin goes along with the chupacabra. (Spelling?)
|
Lord Storms
|
Greek legends tell of how Heracles had to slay the Chimaera.
|
General Ceyrox
|
Yup... Storms is right. Since there is no longer a need for it, Storms, could you lock this topic and make it no longer a global announcement?
