It's debatable, but I think Fashion categorically fits better in Interests. Logically speaking, I've never seen it fit into "lifestyle." It's not what I think when I think fashion.

hmm i agree it is debatable. but with the new organization, we're going to have subforums linked right under the forum index, so that should make it less confusing. books, anime, sports can all be interests, but then we have a forum catagory with too many subforums.

what do you think of this? (im just putting it out there for comparison purposes). lifestlye is removed, lockers are top level, and health and fashion is under interest. we'll have 11 (one more) top level forums, which i think is reasonable.

introduction
the lounge
-vip lounge
pictures
music
tv / movies
relationships
boys locker
girls locker
academia
-books
-debate
-school
-news
interests
-art
-health
-fashion
-food
-technology
-writing
recreation (someone wanna come up with a better name?)
-anime
-humor
-sandbox
-sports

If that's the case, then food and health should also be in lifestyle.


NVM, just saw Micron's post.

yay!

so yes to lifestyle or no? id like to get this done and over with by the end of today.

why should you ask us? we're just the minority right?

like i said jusun. it's your choice. you're the creator. do whatever you feels fit.

can someone explain to me why vip should be a subforum?

I think you should put back lifestyle, but with only the relationships, girl/boy locker subforums under it.

And I think everything under Academia could work in Interests.

^ No, I miss the Relationships and Locker Rooms being on the main page.

haha, i miss the days when it was just

lounge
entertainment
relationships
boy
girl

... that was it, right?

I think it fits better being in the lounge. I mean its like a unmoderated lounge for the OM's. Its not like its really that active of a forum either that it needs to be on the front page.

good luck and have fun to all mods who have to move all of the topics.

.deleteme.

ah, i apologize if i came a bit too strong in the beginning. i value what you guys think too, i do. i was just afraid the proposal would have many complaints, so i came off a bit forceful to compensate.

i asked because although ideally id prefer the latter proposal(where lockerooms are back as top level forums, im not too sure how you guys would find it (considering we'll have one more top level forum from the previous proposal, and several more if compared to the current organization).



i dont think it warrants its own top level forum, considering there's so few who are official members compared to the rest. but then again, its usually the official members that are most active. ...im not too sure about this one. i think in the beginning i wanted to place this as a subforum because ideally, its best to include the entire community rather than a small subset. by being its own top level forum, i worry that many official members will bypass the lounge and exclusively post here. so if we make this a subforum under the lounge, they are atleast forced to look at the topics in the lounge and hopefully be more inclined to participate.



relationships has to be a top level forum. please refer to the stats, it has too much activity to be a subforum (which means youll need to navigate several pages just to get there... cumbersome)



yes, me too. =)

I don't think there's any doubt at this point that that would be an issue.

It's been stated enough times that the VIP Lounge doesn't get much attention, but yet we like it more as its own forum. It's definitely not going to take away from the Lounge in the least bit, as it hasn't before. The fact is, less than 50 people can see it, so why does it matter much if it's visible on the front page? We're accustomed to having it there and haven't really taken a liking to it being in the Lounge the last 2 times it was put there. If anything, it became less noticed when it was actually part of the Lounge than when it was on the top level. So, if that's the case, where exactly is the perk in it? I agree that it's not exactly active, but being on the main list is where we like it.

Please?

^ ok. as long as you guys dont mind have 12 / 13 forums as top level forums under community center.

Personally I think that sounds excessive, but just so long as we don't have a catchall entertainment forum again, I don't care all that much about the rest of it.

That does seem excessive, but whatever works.

ok here we go.

Bwah, its changed. I don't mind, it'll just take some getting used to again.

=[

Everything's so long.

Lounge
Entertainment --> Movies, music
Interests --> everything else
Relationships
Girls locker
Boys locker.

dammit.

I thought you like long things.

true that, but yknow, every girl(or boy) has her(or his) limits.

the length of the forums is lethal.

youre right, i thnk everything is really long. im going to combine interest + rec. and put vip forum as a subforum and see how it looks like.

Are you planning on keeping the links to the subforums on the top page, because they just make it look even more cluttered, IMO.
