(cutting down on the number of threads there and adding a "5 newest news items" list would be helpful though)#2 (FT Classic style) And to be honest, it works just fine. Don't fix it if it isnt broken. - Keep the black skin (or a dark skin in general...easier on the eyes). - Keep chatbox and if possible make it real time because everyone frequently uses it (and i dont have to be spammed on facebook chat). - Keep the image gallery for all that is wonderful in this world (maybe clean it up a bit...like some of the girl lingerie pics). - Change if possible some pictures or add more for example the banner could change depending on the forum being viewed. The style could be updated. - I have noticed that the front page seems to be the most viewed with people rarely going into the actual forums unless to create a new thread. My idea is this: Get rid of the front page threads. Create a new sub-forum for "News Only" threads. These should be the only threads to appear on the front page. It could have anything to do from welcoming a new member to discussing an update to the game in general. Expand the chatbox since there will be less clutter. This forces users to actually go into the individual forums and somewhat new threads do not have to die so quickly. Totally agree. If it weren't for the new threads on the home page I would never post. Also, the {UL} over the logo at the top of the page needs to go. Been bugging me for years |

It provides a quick way to check what's active. |

can you elaborate on the third option? what kind of new site changes will be made? what is a pure forum? do we lose customization options? if it only deletes the chatbox (making it a 'pure forum') i like opt 3. that thing is just a clog of useless babble anyway | ||

The chatbox is still considered to be forum material. I think that in the future, the chatbox will be useful for those looking for a quick admin. |

b4ndito wrote ... I love the "New Threads Bump" idea and real time chat would be awesome. This site is cluttered badly. I would get rid of chatbox, other unnecessary things; have threads bump to top when there is a comment so dead threads and spam don't stay on the top page. Also, if #2 or #3 goes through, does that mean there's going to b a 3 above the CLAN at the top? |
