Forum Reorganization

"Your life defines you, but you define your legacy."

Hello folks! So the mods and I decided to reorganize the forums in a bunch of different ways. Things were renamed, others were moved, and some were even merged! Anyways, here's what all was done:


  • Sprite Projects was deleted and it's topics were dumped into the Sprite Workshop.
  • Sprite Workshop was renamed "Sprite Warehouse" and now also encompasses the things that were covered by the Sprite Projects forum.
  • Halo Sprites Community category was renamed "HSF Community" to further reflect the new identity of these newest forums.
  • The Discussion category has been reordered, mostly just to put the Introduction Panel and HSF Help Desk at the bottom and more out of the way.
  • Featured Projects now consists of one single forum, with each project being a separate sub-forum within it.
  • The Featured Projects forum was moved to the HSF Community category, since it is after all made up of community projects.
  • Other minor changes that are for the most part invisible to you guys.

It may not seem like much, but I'm personally pretty happy with this reorganization. We've got a few more small changes on the way, so stay tuned for those in the coming weeks.

One last thing before I go, though. I'd like some feedback from you guys on two different things:
1. What do you think of this reorganization? Do any of the changes bother you?
2. The Discussion category doesn't have that many forums (if you don't count the Intro Panel and Help Desk). What other discussion forums would you like to see added to it?


Thanks in advance for the input guys. Until next time!

I love all of the reorganization we did last night, especially that featured projects are now, actually featured at the top instead of the bottom.

It's gonna take some time to get used to, not having to scroll around to where I want to go, but I feel like the forums are much more concise now.

SHAMELESSPLUG: Gonna be putting up a new topic for the public In Extremis forum. That's right, it's public now. Go check it out!

Wake Up.

Why?

Because I can't do ANYTHING to the P7 forum. My modding powers for it are gone.

Can't you be made the mod of your subforum, though?
@topic: The one thing I don't like is the Introduction Panel being at the bottom. I think it should be at the top of its category.

Nile, he was the mod for his subforum, and it went away when we moved P7 and InEx around, fixed now though.

And Nile, I was campaigning for Introductions and Help Desk being in their own category above discussions, but it would have been too small of a category, so it got turned down. If we could find something else that could go in that category.....

Yeah, we talked about that a lot when trying to set it up. The thing is that the Intro Panel and Help Desk are mostly for new members, and new members don't stay new for very long. For the rest of us that don't really need to post anything in those forums (other than welcoming the occasional new member), this means that those forums are sort of in the way. Not to mention the fact that it's the "Discussion" category, and introducing yourself/asking a question isn't really much of a discussion compared to the other forums.

Like Mik said, our original plan was to put them in a separate category at the bottom so that they would really be out of the way and you could even minimize them if you wanted, but i decided that this would be TOO out of the way for the new members. Our next idea was to put their separate category above the discussion category so that, while it's still in the way, you can at least minimize it and still see the Discussion category. However, this would make for a really small and pointless category, not to mention everything would still be in the exact same order, meaning that not much would have actually changed.

So, unless you guys can think of other useful forums that could serve in this new category that includes the Intro Panel and Help Desk, we're going to have to keep it like this for now. Any ideas?

and @Gorilla: I know it's not much, it's just mostly a lot of reorganization that i felt needed to be done. I've got a few other small things that i'm going to try to dish out in the comic weeks.

Happy woops, that was actually just a typo. I do have a comic in the works, but I won't be making it until a while after H4 releases. Plus that wouldn't be a forum update :P
