We've identified that, while we had an entire section named General Discussions, there really wasn't that much general discussion going on there, and what there has been has been sort of scattered around the boards without really having a home. So, seeing as this was the closest without actually being called it, it has now also... um... been called it.
In the next few days, we also plan on merging or re-arranging a few of the forums in the Community Center and the General Discussion categories in an attempt to de-clutter and re-vitalize the lower half of the boards, which have not been seeing nearly as much traffic, discussion, or general cool shit as I'd personally like to see. In an attempt to make things simple and a little more homey, on the block for changes are:
- General Discussion as a full category is going to go away... it's forums are going to be merged into the Community Center category
- Rules, Suggestions, Polling Station, and Announcements will be merged into a sort of 'forum administration' forum, of which we haven't come up with a spiffy name yet. (Suggestions are welcome)
- Pop Culture and Current Events and Debate will be merged into this (the General Discussion) forum. We're working on some sort of tagging system so if someone wants to have a serious no-holds-barred 'debate' thread we can still offer the little-to-no interference we've been providing up until now.
- The "Forum" Forum (Rules, Suggestions, Announcements, Voting, etc)
- General Discussion (now containing all previous posts from Debate and Pop Culture too)
- Images and Artwork (new name, same forum)
- Webcomics (no changes)
- Games (no changes)
- Conventions (no changes)
- Purgatory (no changes)
