Post subject:  Sub-Forums

I went to lolstop forums and I've noticed they have Sub-Forums in some of their sections. For example, in the Fanworks section, they have Sub-Forums for Fan Sprites, Fan Comics and Fanart....

I was looking at our Fanworks Section and I've realised its a bit messed up. Isn't it possible for PsyPoke to have Sub-Forums as well, to make things a bit clearer and organized?

If it is possible, don't you think its a good idea?

Just wondering, though...I was going to PM someone, but I wasn't sure who I was supposed to talk to, so I opened this topic. Sorry if its useless, Mods are free to lock it, but I'd like an answer.

Sub-forum options are not available to phpbb users unless they download the correct MOD. It is possible, and I think the E4 should take it into consideration, though.

I hope they do, our Fanworks Section is completely chaotic... I thought about that phpbb thingy, but I wasn't sure, so I asked. I'm happy to know it turned out a good question.

It would definitely help, a sub-forum for Graphics; RP's, then the rest for stories and whatnot. If I can locate the MOD I'll post it. :wink:

Thanks Truestar! I think we should have, in the Fanworks Section, sub-forums for Fanfics (pok

I agree, at the E4 (see the ad in my sig) we have 2 sub forums, they work a little wierd on proboards so I only have 2, once I get the hang of it more'll come, we have a missingno and glitches SF in the RBY discussion and an RP discussion (where post count's not effected) in the Activities forum.

I am going to edit the name of this topic to call a bit more attention.

Any moderators or Elite 4 could help? It would be good to hear what an authority thinks about this.

I saw the demo, and they do have Sub-Forums that seem to work good. Now let's hope some Elite 4 stops by and take a look.

We have....

General Discussion
Music Discussion
Sports Discussion
.
.

Activities and Competitions
Fanworks

all of them are Forums. A Sub-Forum is like a specified Forum inside another one: for example, we could have FanArts, FanSprites....

Then, it would be, like...

Fanworks --> FanArts FanSprites FanComics RPs

I don't know if it's worth getting a subforum. Why not just make another forum for it? I'd probably just stick all these forums in the right category. The thing is when we decided to do a Fanworks forum, I didn't anticipate there being so much contribution because previous Fanworks forums didn't work out very well.

I'm not keen on installing mods because each time I have to update, I need to reinstall the mods.

And if you want to make suggestions about the forums and/or site, you're most welcome to do so, just directly PM me or Amphy about it. If we think it's a good idea, we'll ask around and see, then we'll think about putting the idea into motion.

Awww....okay....At least, I got my answer. Thanks (though I'm just a bit dissapointed...). Anyway, Elite 4 decides what's best for Psypoke, it was just a suggestion.

Moderator, feel free to lock this up, its useless now.

Well I'm not completely ruling out sub forums, but tell me, what's the difference between having a sub-forum and having a new forum? Is there actually a significant difference that I have to download this mod and install it?

Author:  Galar [ Fri Jun 10, 2005 7:46 pm ]
Post subject: 

huumm....didn't think about that...Well, I guess it doesn't make much difference, anyway. I was just a bit worried that our FanWorks Section would remain in chaos: the first thing I thought about on how to make it organized was Sub-Forums....

Yeah, no difference at all. Sorry...I'm not into this very much, so I just....you know...Tryied something out...

I do appreciate you taking the time to give us suggestions though. And I agree with you, the Fanworks forum is getting cluttered. Something tells me the discussion in this thread will not be going to waste 8)

Must of missed this topic

Personally I think it'd be a good idea, I think we should Split the Graphics/Art and Role Play/Stories into 2 forums or something similar.

Also, I'm not really into the Role Plays and Stories, and I don't have the time to check every story and Role Play. So I haven't been around much in here (Well I still check the Graphics Section occasionally).

I did make the Story Raters awhile ago, hoping it would slightly solve the problem (and of course it seemed like a fun idea and members liked it before it started), but it didn't quite work out (Inactive), but Story Raters and Non-Raters are still allowed to give a rate in stories.

I also think Gryphflame and dragonfan#149 would be good mods for the Role Play/Stories forum, (of course that is, if we make it and if they feel like modding it).

Just a suggestion.

FanArt --> For drawings, pok
