I'm working on ideas to update out forums. I have a few ideas for new boards but would like to hear what everyone else has to say?
What kind of boards should we have? What kind of boards should we not have?

Feel free to post if you don't think the forums need much change and why, if that's your thinking
Like what you see here?

Will this be just board changes, or changes to the look and layout of the forum as well?

Just askin' because I like the current color sheme and how it's easy on the eyes.

Clay

color will be the same. The idea behind the change is to facilitate opportunities for people to create content. hopefully more content = more daily users. The big problem still is Im not sure on how to get more people to the forums. We have been using the servers we run as an advertising tool but we don't have many servers anymore. I'm Looking into how to repopulate the forums, this is step one.

Just getting started.
I have added a few new boards and reorganized some old ones.
Tell me what you think. What should we add or remove?


I need your help!
Post in the new boards!
Example... in the movies and TV section make a post asking if someone has seen any good movies lately.

I like it. It'll be easier to find things. I just have to get used to it.
I should come up with a clever signature... eh I'll do it later.

Clay

This was a horrible failure. I put the forums back to their original configuration. if you cant find a post because its in a new board please use the search feature in the top right of every forum page.
Most things have been moved to either the "General Discussion " or "General Gaming" boards.

Hmmm.   Looking for D&D so I can copy information and clean things up.   Easiest way to find it?
