Forum Organazation

Colonel Banryx · Guest

As 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!

RPGs
---------------------
RPG discussion
---------------------
Kingdom Hearts RPG
---------------------
Resistance RPG
---------------------
Naruto RPG
---------------------
Random Roleplay
---------------------
---------------------

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.

Yours just has too many forums. We need less, so it's easier to manage.

Lord Storms · Posted: Wed Jan 28, 2009 12:52 am Post subject:

But yours had no changes to the forum...

I like Banryx's idea, but I want the Role Playing forum to stay.
