Forum Reorganization Suggestions

[Sudy]

I realized I'm annoyed that every time I need to post a multi-platform videogaming thread in Gaming in General, I have to wade through a bunch of card and boardgaming threads that don't interest me. I would like to propose a new forum structure:

- General (Video) Gaming
- Card Games
- Board Games (miniatures subforum?)
- PnP RPGs
- Industry Discussion
-- PC Gaming is Dying
-- Steam Saved PC Gaming

- Current PC Games
- Unreleased PC Games
- Vintage PC Games
- Multiplayer Gaming
- MMOGs
- Vaporware

Consoles suck, so one forum is still enough.

Forum games I just have no use for, so that one can go.

- Everything But Gaming (Except for Religion & Politics)
-- Movies
-- Music
-- Kasey Chang's WTF?!
-- Misc. dbt Strangeness
- Religion and Politics
-- Liberal Communists
-- Conservative Fascists
-- Normal People
- Sports
- General Computing
- Trade Forum
- Bargain Bin
-- Cult of Steam

- SRS BSNS


Can I be a mod?

Can I be a mod?

PayPal me $100 and I'll vote for you. Otherwise... no.

Actually, I've often wondered why the forum doesn't run itself like a border town. Maybe it does, and I'm just out of the loop?

Some more sub- and sub-sub-forum suggestions....

EBG
-music
--tgb's playground (one youtube link per thread, please)
--female singer-songwriters (poss. nsfw)
--Celtic dreams (bands who are Irish, or of Irish descent, or just like to pretend they are)
-celebrity death announcements
--no, i mean seriously obscure old dudes you didn't realize were still alive even if you had heard of them
-SCIENCE!
--space exploration
--medical advice (IANAD)
-gadgets
--tell me what doohickey to buy next
-food
--cooking tips and recipes
--processed snack food rhapsodizations and caveats

I think these modifications would make the forums much less cluttered and confusing, and we could all help with the transition by refusing to reply to mis-posted threads except to point out which forum they should have gone into.

-food
--cooking tips and recipes
--processed snack food rhapsodizations and caveats

You left out:

--arguments over fast food chains
--cilantro, the highly poisonous weed

Hmm yes, there should also be a bacon sub-sub-forum.

[Odin]

The suggestion that bacon is even remotely sub-anything shows a lack of bacon oneness. Be one with the bacon.

[silverjon]

I would now respectfully suggest that Gaming in General should be renamed "Gaming in General and Shoes", to more accurately reflect the types of posts being made therein.

[Gladeville]

This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I enjoy spam!

[Daehawk]

Daehawk needs a sub of his own for all things Daehawk.

[PLW]

Maybe a spam subforum, so the bots all know where to go.

[Carpet_pissr]

But not a bad idea, Mr. Bot! How can we monetize (or weaponize, either one) OO and its rich resource of worldly, timely and snarky advice?
