That's why I'm waiting for phpbb 3.0, because it will allow sub-forums.

Here's a directory tree of how I believe we should organize in the future:

Code: Select all

Here's how I have this directory tree laid out:
MAIN FORUM
	-Subforum
--Category--

M'kay? M'kay.


--Discussion--
The Book

Forum 42
	-Rules (duh :P)
	-Announcements

--Systems--

Atari 2600

Nintendo systems
	-NES
	-SNES
	-N64
	-Gamecube

Sony systems
	-PSone
	-PS2

SEGA
        -Genesis
        -Master
        -CDX/Saturn

Others
	-C64/Amiga
	-Xbox
	-MVS 
        -PC
	-etc...

Screens

Trading Post
This would un-clutter the main page (some people have complained about the front page being "too full") and it would be more organized (faster info access, it would look better.)

Just my $0.02

No Jaguar?!

Come on, I think that set up would only complicate things. I made a quick stop at a PHPbb Armored Core forum. Finding a forum was an annoying thing, almost every directory lead to a list of more directories.

Having all the forums listed right out in front would work. If we wanted to do something like that I'd say have simple headers over the forums, would that work?
