Suggestions Forum Subforums [needs work]

Post by GreecePwns »

Suggestion Idea: Separate suggestions that are in certain stages from others, like the foundry.

Specifics: Maybe the main one can be for new entries, one subforum for to-do ones, and one for rejected ones, and one for implemented ones.

Why it's needed: Because this place needs a bit of organization IMO.

Priority: 2

There is a point where it is possible to have TOOOOOO many forums, and I think this suggestion would be nearing that.

I honestly think the bugs should in their own area, but that could be good in this situation.

I like this, but you definitely wouldn't want fixed to go with rejected.

More like

Suggestions and Bug Reports
* To Do List (with Priorities)
* Bug Confirmed/Idea Accepted/Pending
- Suggestions/Bug Reports
- Rejected/Not a Bug

* means stickied in main forum
- means sub forum

It's a good idea, but like andy said, there are problems with having too many forums:

good: it keeps things organized (if people use them)
good: it makes it theoretically easier to find stuff (if people use them)
good: ok, ran out of good

bad: people don't use them
bad: people are lazy and dont read beyond the first board the come to
bad: there aren;t enough mods right now to move the suggestions back and forth and keep it organized.
bad: people don't use them

OK, so thats....2.5 good vs. 4 bad if my math is correct.

If you can convince me that there is an easy way to get people to use them (hell people have trouble just using the form) and to move stuff around once people prove too lazy to use the sub forums, then I'd be very interested, but until then, it's just more work that I dont think most people would use.

But yes, I agree, in theory it's a great idea. Shame theory and reality are so often so very different.

How about this?

Main Forum: New and Unclassified Suggestions/Unsolved Bugs
Subforum (named "Done" or something similar) To-do and rejected Suggestions/Not Bug, Fixed Bugs
