I am on this forum, called AdminChat, its run by forum developers, its very active. I am trying to help this forum the best I can. I have constucted a new forum layout, that you might consider changing too. They have longer descriptions which is good also unique names, which is always a good thing. Yes, as this is a gaming forum I have made a whole category for gaming. Categories are in bold, names are <u>underlined</u> and descriptions are in italic.





NovaGamers Central
<u>Notepad</u>
Visit here regulaly as this is where all news and updates are announced. Information about the forum, the staff, competition news is also posted here.

<u>Community Speach</u>
Have some feedback or suggestions you would like to discuss or have a point to get across about us, you may post it here and wait for a reply. You can also use this section for support questions.

<u>Introduce Yourself</u>
Are you new to NovaGamers? This is your spot for introducing yourself, what you do, where you found us and you can meet the members of the NovaGamers community.






NovaGamers Arena
<u>Gaming Podium</u>
General gaming discussions can be discussed here, such as your last game played, videogame companies, gaming magazines and more. All games discussions that dont have a set section can also be posted here.

<u>Nintendo</u>
Here you can discuss Nintendo's vast variety of videogame consoles like the Wii, GameCube, and their amazing list of handhelds including the Nintendo DS, the Gameboy and even the Pokemon Mini. You can also chat about their large videogame library.

<u>Sony</u>
Sony is the home of the Playstation consoles and portables. Talk about the amazing Playstation 3 and the handy Playstation Portable as well as past consoles that sony have created for us and introduced us into a new world of gaming.


<u>Microsoft</u>
This section is for the Xbox and PC gaming discussions. Are you an online gamer, if so Microsoft have a range of games that support online services as well as the consoles which have Xbox Live and much more. Discuss all the games and systems which Microsoft has let us play in the world.

<u>Backstage Gaming</u>
Any gaming topics that don't have a set section can be chatted upon here. Retro gaming, television plug-in games and more. Not everyone likes Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft consoles or they need a break from them, so this is the place to post if you are one of them.


Daily Dose
<u>Chat Away</u>
Everyone likes a bit of general chat and forum games somewhen. Talk here about the weather, what you are doing tomorrow, what happened in the past and much more. Talk about any general subject in here, just don't go too crazy.

<u>Techno Entertainment</u>
Away from the gaming side of entertainment, in here you may discuss music, television, sports and any kind of entertainment that you are interested in. Sit back and relax while also talking about technology such as computers, wifi and much more.

<u>Graphics Gallery
Share all your knowledge and skills is graphics design and more. Post graphics you have made, tutorials, discuss graphic programs too and get comments on your work. This area is for all the graphic lovers


User Boards</u>
User Boards are yours to use as a blog, an area to discuss one of your developments and so on. you may request a board for yourself inside but make sure you read the guidelines which are posted. Don't use this section for any off topic discussions and told so by the user board owner.


<u>Extra Area</u>
In here are sub sections which you can view, such as reviews but there are some sections which are hidden such as the Administration Section which is only available for staff members to view and the VIP forum which is only available to special, active and dedicated members. You may also use this section to post anything which doesn't fit into any other category on NovaGamers forums.


I hope you will consider changing all or some, I think it would do a lot in terms of changing the board anyway. What do you think?

Not bad! I'll have to think about it a bit first though, but we definitely need to organize things.

I will probably implement a change something like this soon.

Anyone want to make a revision of Tommy's idea? I like it, but it doesn't quite seem right.

I say we cut some of the boards (Flash Theater is combined with Lounge and General Entertainment gains TV and Movies, Music, Art & Graphics, and Story Boards but they aren't sub-boards but General Entertainment is all of them wrapped into one), Reviews becomes a sub-section in both Games and Computers. The Downloads section could be made into one post where people requests and can download them. Userboards could be somehow made into a sticky inside of VIP Forums and not a sub-forum. The Paranormal could go into Break Loose without being a child forum.

Here's what it would look like:

-Special
  -Introductions
  -Forum News
  -VIP Forum (with Userboards as stickies and Downloads as a Sticked thread)
-General
  -Lounge (Games mixed into it with Flash Theater as well)
  -Break Loose (Paranormal mixed into it without it being a child board)
-The Arts (Could be renamed into Entertainment)
  -Games (with a reviews child board in it)
  -Tech (Gadgets and such like Cell Phones and Routers and reviews)
  -Computers (Computers, Computing, Reviews)
  -General Entertainment (Mixture of TV, Movies, Music, Art & Graphics, Stories)

And that's it basically.

So you're saying we should do away with Paranormal because people don't post there much?
