Structure and Hierarchy

This forum does need a lot of work and a lot more thinking before we do anything "official." Therefore I am proposing that significant changes be made. Changes such as:

-New Groups and Ranks system
-Other forum systems I could probably set up myself
-A new layout of the homepage. All could be edited for the most part with HTML.
-A better structure of the topics and threads.

Triology Studios cannot work on more than one game, That'd take forever. We should move away from the whole "Triology Studios" thing and move on to make a site about one specific game in general. I think we should wipe all topics we have made so far, In order to organize everything better. If it could be possible, We could modify the theme to go along with our game background as well..

Also..I don't necessarily want to be an Admin for a site which I can't contribute much of the game to. Quite frankly, My computer is so bad now I can't even map. I do, However, Want to help in the putting together of this forum. I will arrange a ranking and grouping system which not only I, But everyone, can agree on.

So reply back as soon as possible Nexus..Whether you agree or disagree it's your site not mine. I do, however, Think that a lot of people will agree with what I'm proposing.

I could design some rank icons if needs be
Also you could consider removing the smiles and replacing them.Default just seems a bit boring

Agreed.Stick with one game if possible

That is no worry as I am a mapper myself

These seem quite good However I could consider a structure

These resemble the category and forum
[General]
Announcements
Introductions
Apply
[Games]
Maps
Mods
Models
Textures
Possibly some more but they are some suggestions


We could try find a different forum host.....
Not to be fussy but Forumotion seems quite boring now.....

Well I have been thinking it over. I think your right. But I say let's keep this site then make another for the game. We don't have to use forumotion. Here is a site talking about 7 sites we can use http://www.smashingapps.com/2011/01/28/7-best-yet-free-online-website-builders.html
Also we can use forumer or smfnew. I don't know. I will look over the sites to see what could work. So its your choice. This site is a democracy. We will all decide and agree on one thing. It's not a dictatorship or autocracy led by me. So we all vote on this. But I agree.

You seem to be getting the basic just of what I am saying. This forum alone needs to be organized as a whole more better than a simple forum made for no apparent reason. If you want we can move to a different site for the game. But I say we just re-do this one.

And Friz..That topic structure seems alright. What I'm basically trying to do here is move away from the general structure set up my NZP Maps though. As in a whole new structure in general.
