 some ideas

Okay, over on the other board i frequent, they have a topic called "talk about anything". It is the biggest topic on the entire board with 36,033 replies. This talk about anything post is just a touch area where the members can check in with one another, and seriously talk about anything. It kinda works like a chat box, (which now works for me btw) but everyone can see it and be all caught up. Some of the best ideas on that board were born there.

I'm thinking that a topic like that would be good for us here, espcially that we are such a small group. Its just one place for us to go and ask how people are doing, and doing some small ranting when about something small that you don't think needs a entire topic dedicated to it.

so yeah, my latest idea.

thoughts/suggestions welcome.

I like your idea. Though I think Pathfinder might have beat you to it with that random topic. Wink

But definitely since we're so small now, that kind of topic would be nice and should be easy to keep up with, and not force people to feel like they have to come up with some kind of idea.


I do wish the board could be simplified a bit, too. There are so many subforms now that they're giving me a headache. Kind of would like to be able to find everything new in just one or two places rather than five or six subforums. But I guess maybe that's because I don't have as much time as I used to, so I get a bit impatient with trying to find out the new stuff.

Kasey, what is the link to this board so I can take a look at it?

As for there being too many sub-forums, I only added maybe four more to the RPG section to organize it better. I knew that if I had done it another way, it would have made the board longer than necessary.

I also suppose when you are gone from a board for months at a time, coming back to see these changes taken place could be a shock. I already knew it was something people would need to get used to.

I've seen boards who have a lot more to them than Sanctuary does. Check out the Police Forums. They have so many sections and topics and categories, that even after being a member there for three years I still get lost.

How about the Anime forum? Same thing. My head spins.

I have put Sanctuary with what I feel it needs for better organization. The only thing I would like to see is for the c-box (Chat box) to be installed directly into the forum rather than needing to click on that link.

However, I think the RPG section needs to be cleaned out as I've taken a look at it. I think I'll do that and see if it helps the forum.

I like to watch scary movies from time to time. Just so I can make fun of the girl who's stupidly running up the stairs instead of getting her father's gun and shooting the prick.. or running out the front door.

I plan to take over the world with my army of teddy bears and my wolf statues. Once I am crowned queen of the world, I will then proceed to eradicate the troublemakers from my empire, and I will indeed thank all the little people I had to step on to get there. : p

the topic in which I'm talking about can be found at http://beasttoast.com but it's one of those topics you have to be a member to see.

Also a good idea would to put the board into groups. Like I really don't care about roleplaying, so I never even check the RPG section. I think that should be an optional thing if people want to see it or not.

hmmm things to think about.
