| I agree with most of them except for merging General Discussion and Spore Discussion. These are two very distinct things, General Discussion covering simply discussion about the GAC in general, whereas Spore Discussion is for, well, Spore. | |

| Thats why I put "It could be debatable". I was also going to add a part about glicthes. But so far the only one I have seen is you getting banned. I am pretty sure the Admins are all already of that and working on that.
So I did not add that.
If you have any suggestions, you should post some. This could be a GAC feedback thread I guess. | |

| I do actually agree with all of those. But not the thing Nagho pointed out. General discussion is for anything General with GA or GAC when Spore Discussion is simply just about spore. So i do not think they should be put together. I frea though that Drew is gonna make a SPTGAC... | |

| You know that there's already a thread for GAC suggestions in the official section, right?
Anyway, I agree that the contest sections should be combined and that the official contest should be made into announcements. Prop requests/commissions and requests is not a big issue. Commissions and requests is for posting any kind of request or... commission, I guess? But the Prop Request section... I guess it could be merged with C&R, but I don't really think it needs to be. The PR section can be used to set up a prop shop or to request people to make props for you, the latter being more popular. So I am indifferent on this issue. Spore discussion and general discussion should definitely be merged. Same with adventure advice, it should just be moved to the advice section. As for the help section, you could make a thread for that. A new section is not necessary. The scrolling bar should DEFINITELY be updated. When (if) I become an admin someday, that's the first thing I'm gonna do.
EDIT: I merged this topic with the Forum Suggestions thread. I've never merged a topic before, so I didn't know what would happen, but it seems to have worked well... | |

No. First of all, that's inconvenient. Secondly, the OP is just meant to give directions on what the thread should be used for, not what suggestions we have. | |

- I have a few ideas that could improve the way the fourm is and make it a little less messy and get rid of the slightly unneeded stuff. Get rid of some sections, combine some sections, Add new ones, update old things that remain un-updated. ECT. These are my thoughts on the fourm and what it can improve on. Wether you agree or not, I am posting them now.
Do not be rude and be an Ars. This is mainly a discussion thread and possibly a home to suggestions for the Admins.
Section's/Delete/AddNew/ECT.
Now a few of the sections seem very outdated or otherwise useless and are practically duplicates of each other. I will first start off with the Contest sections.
GAC Official Contests and User Made Contests....
They should just be put together. Wether or not you guys can somehow combine sections. Or just move the threads to the sections... it seems a little unneeded to have two contest sections. I know, ones for users and ones for Official ones. But if you are going to have official contests, why not just put them up on the Global announcements area and put them in one big contest section. It seems very logical to me and could help take up less space.
Combinein' them seems like the best way to take car of this. Move all the threads from the sections into one big new one.
Onto the next sections.
Prop requests and Commissions & Requests.
If you really thing about it, they should be put together as well. More so put the Prop request threads in Commissions & Requests and then you could just delete props section. It just kinda seems like a duplicate of Commissions & Requests and to me (Again) seems rather unneeded.
Tips & Tutorials should be merged with Advice, for same reasons listed above.
Again Merge another section... General Discussion and Spore discussion. This one could be debatable I guess. But I am pretty sure they are the same thing.
Adventure advice should just be deleted. I see that is serves no purpose and it is a duplicate of tips &Tuts, and advice.
Now enough with the combinin' lets move on to something that could be much more probable.
Add a help section.
Wether it is glitches or fourm help.. this could be a very useful section. Think about all the people needing help with again, glitches and game wreaking things. Also if people cant get on the site or anything really. It could be very helpful.
Updates:
At the very top where the scrolling bar is, you will note that one of them says "request at these sig shops" that should be updated. Adding the newer and more active ones. I have not once seen those ones listed on the recent topics.
Then updates teh global announcements... I mean really? They are almost all old and old. :P
Thats all for now. Re-posted for sped reason. | |

It's called Pandak. I wouldn't say this thread is dead. It's always open for suggestions. | |

| A thread isn't dead until it's locked or deleted. There's really nothing wrong with adding to a thread that hasn't been posted on in a while.
As for the smiley, I don't think it should be added. I don't even know what it is or where it came from and seems superfluous. | |
