Well, I know I am new here, but there is one suggestion that I'd like to make that I doubt will gave much traction right now (or ever). I am really enjoying the forum, but to be honest, it seems empty with how spread out it is. There are over 65,000 posts and there isn't any reasonable way to see that with a forum and sub forum for just about everything. Announcements Introductions Suggestions General Horror Horror Movies Horror TV Horror Music Horror Games Horror Comics General Talk General Movies General Entertainment Creative Works I honestly don't think anyone is going to go for it, but when you're trying to attract new members it's more appealing to see Horror Movies with 2,337 Topics and 28,191 replies instead of having a forum for everything. In fact, some of the forums can even be good topics instead of full blown forums. Anyway, I hope no one takes offense. I still enjoy the forum, just a lot of scrolling I have to do to get to where I want to be and I have a pretty damn large monitor. :p |

Really love this idea! I'm a neat freak so organization is everything, plus it wouldn't be such a huge, main page to load. |

If we did that, even more threads would end up being buried, forgotten, and made multiple times than they are already. |

True, but i do agree with a clean up. Maybe alphabetize the franchises? Or add a Horror Discussion section which could include the best/worst polls, memorabilia, directors, etc? That way the Franchises could have their own section? Not saying anything is wrong. You and Tay have done an amazing job but I agree that simplicity and organization are appealing to new users. |

Things would still be buried even with that though. :/ Alphabetizing is fine, but it CAN'T be condensed without making it easier for things to get screwed up, overlooked, duplicated and so on. |

I mean absolutely no disrespect, but that mentality is completely false. This is a forum, to consider anything being "screwed up" is short of silly. You shouldn't concern yourself over possible duplicate threads. Does this forum not have the ability for admins and moderators to merge threads? I'm just being realistic and honest with you, the only thing that I can see keeping me from posting here as much as I would like is how spread out it is. Ultimately, it is your forum to do with as you please, but my experience with forums is not small. I've posted at forums for the last 14 years, I've moderators forums, I've been an admin at forums, I've been the owner of forums and I've won awards for my previous forums when I had a UBB based board. |

I just really don't see how having a lot of sections is an issue. To be honest, I find having alot of sections easier to navigate than having just ten sections with over 1,000 threads per section. MANY threads would end up being buried and yes, we can easily merge them, but it's sort of a bitch to browse through twenty pages to get to the original thread so the two can be merged. If the horror sections were condensed into only one section with thousands of threads crammed into that one section, there would only be less than twenty active topics per day, I'm pretty sure. That's what's happened on quite a few forums I've been on in the last seven years or so. I know you don't mean any harm or disrespect. I actually appreciate the suggestions and everything, I just don't really agree with them at this time. :P |

Maybe we can take the suggestion in consideration for the future. It'd be a lot of work for now but I appreciate your suggestion. :) |
