Forum Reorganization

[Bruceswar]

OK soo looking at the list, why would Map Foundry be above GD? Also I think Training Grounds needs to be under information. Then the Sub Forum Plugins needs to moved out and put at the bottom of the list.

[AndyDufresne]

I think OP's reasoning for Tournaments and Map Foundry toward the top is that they are user-generated content---which are definitely driving forces behind Conquer Club. The Discussion forums have been moved to the bottom area for now.

Keep in mind, this is just Phase One---the next Phase, and the next, will really make more sense. Intermediate stages, like this one, may feel a little strange.

Congrats Andy and team, good idea for the Map Foundry to be moved up the list instead of begin stuck down the bottom. We'll see if that improves traffic flow any.

*cough* *cough*... haven't been reading the thread in the GD have you?? anyway, i hope it does too... i for one am checking it out on a regular basis now, giving it a 5th chance... and i love that the newsletter is off on it's own now too, doesn't feel so forced now... i think optimus did a great job and for phase one, it is kick ass... good job OP, your improvements to the site just keep rolling out...-0

Owen, i hadn't been in that thread as i haven't had much time lately, but moving the foundry thread up the order of the forums was something that i for one (probably amongst many others) had suggested over a year back in order to improve traffic flows into the foundry.

Great idea bringing life back to the forums. Everything looks a-okay to me.

The official strategy guides forum should now be in viewable for the community here:

viewforum.php?f=374

It seems to me that MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING should be the last forum listed...it's really not very critical to the success or operation of the site.

It and other forums will still be shuffled around in the next couple Phases of the reorganization. Stay tuned with us...this is just the first phase.

Advertising needs? Hmmm, that could be worse than FW.

Nobody said anything about advertising. I think it is great they are recognizing user made content like the newsletters, maps, etc.

[azezzo]

how about helping the clans to reorganize and clean up their private forums. the ability to delete old and unneeded topics would be great.

Yup, it is not there now. The reorganization looks good.

Private Forum Moderation would be great.

The problem is that they way phpBB3 works is that to have those moderation privileges, you also get access to the moderator control panel, which logs all manner of activities by anyone with mod privileges. Since it's inner-working-TeamCC variety stuff, it's generally not a good idea to let Joe Clan Leader access to it, particularly if it could get spamtastic on the logs (the Global Mods, bless their hearts, have to look at EVERY mod action in EVERY forum).
