EDIT: Here's the idea Ace proposed:

Ace Paladin
Idea:

How about a completely new guild?

Everyone puts 1-3K into the ring again and we move on to a new guild.

Sometimes it's a lot better/easier that way... instead of a complete revamping. That way, we'd have a new guild with NO subforums.

I personally think having a ******** of subforums is kinda distracting/tacky... especially since none of them are active at all whatsoever.

It'd also be an easier solution to all the inactive users/threads. We wouldn't have to spend the time deleting them all.

And if, for example, a user wanted something fake news- or viking media- esque, they'd just get their own sticky on the main page.

Do we still have the banner? I could always upload it, you know. And why doesn't Ace come by to say "hello" to me anymore?

No we don't unfortunately.

I guess Ace has been busy. I actually haven't seen him in person in a while. I've been talking to him on myspace though..

Tell him that Tango says the guild coterie is unbalanced without his round and static character.

That's alright Ace. xD


@Everyone: Alright, I'd like to clean up the guilds. Which should be get rid of and which should we change? My suggestions:

Currently:

Nintendo
Sony
Microsoft
The Haunted Mansion
PC Gaming
Music/Movies
Anime/Manga/Comics Discussion
Sheik026's "Fake Video Game News"
HistoryWak's Word Games
Online Gaming
Technology Subforum (Discuss iPods, HD, etc...)
Viking Media
Crew Hangout
General Chat/Anything Non-Gaming Related/Non-Sticky related
Trash Can [Locked/Spam Threads]

My Changes:

"Empty" < It won't say empty It'll just be blank
"Empty" < It won't say empty It'll just be blank
"Empty" < It won't say empty It'll just be blank
"Empty" < It won't say empty It'll just be blank
"Empty" < It won't say empty It'll just be blank
"Empty" < It won't say empty It'll just be blank
Handheld Gaming < For lack of a better title
PC Gaming/Online Gaming
Music/Movies
Technology Subforum (Discuss iPods, HD, etc...)
Viking Media
General Chat/Anything Non-Gaming Related/Non-Sticky related
Trash Can [Locked/Spam Threads]

I'll also as a rule of thumb move any thread to the trash can who's last post was made in '08 (unless a sticky or announcement).


What do you think? Have any ideas for new subforums? (or subforums that should be changed/removed?)

I don't know about deleting the Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, and PC gaming forums, but the online gaming subforum should be fine as-is. Even if it's small and relatively inactive, it is a pretty good place to store gamertags, Steam IDs, friend codes, etc. If we think that's too little content for one subforum, we can sticky it like a "get to know your guild members" thread.

Also, We kicked this idea around in January, but I still think it would be a good idea to have an Archive/Memorable Threads subforum. We can lock all the threads in there and keep around some of our cool dicussions as well as save things like new year's resolutions, speculations, and year in preview threads just to bring them back a year later and discuss how things really turned out.

What about merging the PC gaming and Online gaming forums? The gamertags, Steam IDs, friend codes, etc can become stickies in the forum.

The Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft forums are pretty much dead. No one really posts in them unfortunately. Anything about either of them just gets made in the main forum.

The memorable threads/archive subforum isn't a bad idea. If we decide that someone will have to go through all the threads and decide what's memorable and all..

Keep Nintendo, Sony, and MS.

Also keep PC and Online separate.

You can put an Entertainment thread for Comics, movies and etc.

I see Wak's point. We never observe the Nintendo/Microsoft/Sony subs. Even if somethign relates to only one of those groups we still post them in the main forum. If you want to keep those subforums, then we should start using them. Otherwise, I agree with Wak in getting rid of them.

Rather than just putting everything with a last post in the year 08, we just filter them into their respective sections and if and only if they don't fit somewhere else we put them in the trash section.
