Tay Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Finalizing the Forums Reorganization So. Now that I’ve confused many of you with the GD overhaul, I figure now is as good a time as any to finish the rest of the forums reorganization projects. Specifically: the community hub and improvements boards are being merged and the birthday, competition, and giveaway threads have been moved to the Lounge. There are a few more topics to be sorted (they’re currently tucked away in the “(Temp) Community Archive” board), but we’re almost there. The community projects board is focused more or less exclusively on Fuwanovel related work. A guide to where to post different kinds of threads is forthcoming. Changes to the forums organization are shown below in red/bold (subforums excluded): Visual Novel Discussion VN Talk Recommendations Walkthroughs Game FAQs and Tech Support Development Boards Fan Project & TL discussion Ongoing Projects Fuwanovel Community Introduce Yourself < = Come tell us who you are! Lounge < = Moved from Other Discussion, renamed to “Members’ Lounge” (see note at end of this post) Community Projects and Feedback < = Merged Hub with Improvements, requests sub-board renamed “Request a Change/Report Site Problems”, restructuring of hidden project boards Other Discussion Anime/Manga Talk Gaming Talk General Discussion Chatter Downloads & Requests Staff Boards Global Moderators Forum Board Moderators Forum We’re going to give it two weeks -- 14 days -- to settle down and see if these changes work or, alternately, bring about the end of the world. Should we all remain conscious and in full possession of free will (not zombies) on the 11th, we’ll open up the floodgates for feedback. (I mean, go ahead and vent here if you want, but a specific feedback period will start then) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tay Posted December 29, 2014 Author Share Posted December 29, 2014 I just had this figured out too OTP It's cruel. I know it. Forgive me... Though with people trickling back post-holiday I thought I'd finish it up now so that we don't get used to anything that's just going to change again right away. These should be the last changes until I flip the switches for the different leadership group boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Poltroon Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Well that wont affect me as im not a mod so have fun with that So nice... Tears come to my eyes... Though maybe not for the reasons my word choice implies. I see a bunch of threads were moved around to accommodate this as well. Excellent.

Heizei_koukousei Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Everything is going in the right direction, but I'm seeing a bit of ambiguity between threads on Community Projects and Feedback and threads on its sub boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tay Posted December 29, 2014 Author Share Posted December 29, 2014 Everything is going in the right direction, but I'm seeing a bit of ambiguity between threads on Community Projects and Feedback and threads on its sub boards. I agree. Part of that is because the old improvement board wasn't sorted very vigilantly (requests were often made outside the request board) and I didn't take much time to filter them out. That said: site requests/bug reports should 100% and with no exceptions go in the dedicated Requests/Reports board. Right now there are only 3 public sub-boards: the Requests/Reports, Archive (will keep), and the temporary Community Archive which needs to have its topics sorted into the correct boards (after which I'll delete the forum itself). The some of the non-public projects boards also have threads in the Community board, but that's alright for now (until the site workflows get updated in the next day or so).

Unless I missed something, Ren already moved everything out of Community Archive... The main thing was that the Archive, Community Projects and Feedback, and Request a Change/Report Site Problems all have a bit of similarities, which I have already begun to iron out. Wanting to consolidate some of these 2 page boards, but I will wait until the workflow is changed before doing anything major Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tay Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 Wow. Things escalated pretty quick. Let's all sleep on this, and we'll get things sorted out in the morning. You have no idea how confusing this is after being gone for a few days. Okaerinasai! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
