Title: Community Forum cleanup and reoganized
Post by: SleePy on June 19, 2008, 05:40:18 PM
Well, after months of work and programing a script to speed up the process. It is done. The community forums have been reorganized.

This really helps bring the focus of the community boards back in order by targeting more key areas of the community.
First thing you will notice is all those clan boards have relocated when you visit the forums. They have been moved down. This was done to bring focus back to the more key area of the community with our public boards as well as the Tribal boards.

If you are in a clan and can access the private clan boards, you will notice that this board has been moved as well, It is above the public clan boards. This was done again to bring focus to the community.

The tribal boards where put at the very top, this was done to help bring attention to the member forums. As well as other tribal boards such as council, moderators, etc.

The next is the games. These where taking up lots of space on the forums and well, they where not getting as much usage as we would of liked. So they got moved into a sub forum and made way for us to introduce Brainstem Games releases easier for when they are released.

Finally, its the General boards. These include things such as News, chit chat, help boards, Graphic boards, and others.

As you can tell, this was all done to hopefully refocus the boards and help you find what you need easier. The boards before where a mess, I will admit it. When they where setup we just put them there and that is where they have stayed as it reflected the old forums we once had on a Invision Free server (yes we used those before we used these SMF forums due to a admin who had a slippery finger :D )

Please, if you see something you shouldn't be able to, such as a private clan board that you are not in, or don't see something you should (such as the lct members area when you should). Inform me (SleePy) or Jo (If he can get it right) and we will get things fixed up as they should be. A lot of work and testing went into it, but its still possible something was missed or didn't get changed correctly. I thank you for your help with this.

In the coming weeks I hope to even more reorganize things, such as even these smiles (maybe start using proper common codes), and other little things. I still have more plans such as most likely getting a new look for this forum and upgrading to a newer version and adding more customizations to bring features here. This all takes planning and testing though. If you have a good idea, please submit it to the Suggestions boards (for those who have access to the lct members only area) or in our general boards for those who don't. These ideas will help me and the rest who are working on cleaning up this mess.

Thanks :)
