iBotPeaches Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Before we go to IPB 3 were trying to clean up the forums to lessen the page load and clean up the look. If I had to pick I would just pick the one with the least replies and topics, but thats not the best way. So I'm asking you guys to help narrow down to 3 forums we just don't need anymore. If we had to remove 3 forums right now (move topics elsewhere) which 3 would you pick? (No Lobby Forums as choices)

Quinn Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Delete the whole Halo 3 section /jk.But seriously,Merge 360 General and 360 Help into one.Delete Ipod/Zune, as there is little to no activity there.
iBotPeaches Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Posted February 11, 2009 The whole xbox 1 and xbox 360 forums were merged once. You can get the xbox section out the picture, I'm not changing that.
Korupt Data Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) PlayStation, handhelds and Zune/Ipod They can all be removed, and also i would remove some of the less popular PC forums and add a general one for all pc related stuff. Edited February 11, 2009 by Korupt Data
yungbol Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Cut down H2 modding a little bit. (Maybe delete misc.)Combine website construction and tech coding.Something with video editing and media, maybe delete both or merge.
LXV Grizzly Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Playstation ConsolesHandhelds,Ipod/ZuneHardly any activity in any of those.
SmokiestGrunl Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 I know you said 3, but this is a whole make over.... Xbox Consoles name changed to Consoles/Gaming.Consoles/Gaming contains current Xbox Consoles forums, with all of the Other Consoles added to it, but Other Consoles put into a sub section. Web Construction merged with Tech Coding Tutorials, name to be Web coding?Operating Systems merged with PC Hardware and Programs then renamed Hardware/SoftwareVideo Editing merged with media, name to stay mediaCell Phones deleted or merged with ipod/zune but renamed to something else. H2 Glitching merged with H2 Misc. name to stay misc. H3 Forge/Customs/Matchmaking, H3 Theatre, H3 Campaign/Skulls/Glitching merged to make H3 Misc.H3 modding to be merged with H3 Talk/News, name remain H3 Talk/News. Off-Topic merged with General Discussion and keep the name General Discussion. Off-topic is "general" discussion and General Discussion has been neglected ever since off-topic. Its your choice whether or not to make General not count towards your post count. GFX Showoff merged with Battle Zone and tags re-introduced. There a complete make over
iKhaosmaster Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 RemoveCell PhonesOperating SystemsiPod/Zune MergeComputer Support and Computer Tutorials and make a forum called Computers and put those as a sub forum under the forum.Put H3 Modz, H3 Modding Programs, and H3 Modding Tutorials under H3 Modding.
Quinn Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) I think the problem is that our categories can't be cut down much more, and there are always people who will object to some sections being deleted. I think what we need to do at IBotmodz is get our priority's strait. We need to decide out what we are really about, then think about deleting sections/subsections and merging. When we started out, it was Xbox, computers and Halo (maybe GFX, can't remember). Now we have Wii in the picture, PSP, PlayStation, the DS etc. I mean these sections hardly have any activity. I think to cut down we need to either outright delete them or merge them. Purely my Revised opinion. Edited February 11, 2009 by XxQuinnzoxX
Dark Slipstream Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Some sections are rarely used, or never used. I think they should be merged or just deleted. It's better with less forums, looks alot cleaner.
Curtis Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 PlaystationHandheldsWebsite Construction My opinion purely. Agreed.
Slidell Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Remove PlaystationHandheldsCellphones Merge Media and Video EditingWebsite Construction and Tech Coding Tutorials Yeah pretty much that,any activity in those can be moved to General Discussion or Off Topic.
Korupt Data Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Smokie i like your ideas but,general discussion and off-topic need to be seperated still. And i think that normal xbox and 360 sections should be merged into Just Xbox in general.
Dan Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Erm, merge some of the halo 3 sections. Lose the OS forum. Merge GFX general, help and resources.
Dark Slipstream Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Everything Smokie says I agree with, win.
gruntmods Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Everything Smokie says I agree with, win.I know this is off topic, but when did you and smokie become sub admins?
Dark Slipstream Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 I know this is off topic, but when did you and smokie become sub admins? Yesterday, Peaches promoted us.
gruntmods Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Yesterday, Peaches promoted us.Why wasn`t there an announcement? congratz!( both of you!)
LXV Grizzly Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Why wasn`t there an announcement? congratz!( both of you!)There was, it just wasnt on the top of the list very long.
Xx Legacy xX Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 these are my suggestions, some are a little ifffy and u may not wanna do them. form h2 modding tuts, and h2 glitching together. maybe form the media section, with video editting. and form website construction, with tech coding form pc hardware, and programs and i cant believe i am saying this form together gfx general, with gfx help and maybe form the battle section with the showoff section
iBotPeaches Posted February 12, 2009 Author Report Posted February 12, 2009 So far I've decided this. GFX Battle Zone merged with GFX Showoff Operating Systems merged with PC Hardware and renamed to Comp. World (something less cheesy of a name) Delete GTA section, dump posts in 360 games Remove H2 Spawn Modz, H2 Campaign Modz and dump into Fun Modz since theres only like 2 active links for each of those forums.
Dark Slipstream Posted February 12, 2009 Report Posted February 12, 2009 o yea lol... Merge multiple H3 Sections into each other. make it where the modding forums are in one forum, or something like that, make it smaller.
