Title: Complete Forum Clean-up And Change! (COMPLETE)
Post by: Rak$ha on June 16, 2011, 04:10:16 am: Alright guys!
Not much has been done about how many boards there are on this forum that no one uses, so the other mods and I have come up with a much better board layout for you.
No, the color theme won't change yet, but some boards will be moved, deleted, created and edited.

I am only letting you know now since we don't know if any of your threads will be lost during this process.
We're going to try our best not to delete any threads, but just as a warning, I ask you now to back-up your important threads (aka copy and paste the threads coding into a word pad or something) before all this happens.

Red and I (and a little help from the other mods) will be working on these boards some time between the 18th - 20th, so you only have a few days to back-up your threads!

If you have any friends who you think need a thread but won't be online during those times, please PM any Mod, asking them to save that threads coding for you.

After all of this, the forum will look much cleaner and much more professional since spelling + grammar errors in board titles/descriptions will also be fixed!

~Thanks xxx

(EDIT)

All is done!

You don't have to save your threads, it's just a notice that they might get deleted. So if you don't think it's that important, then you don't need to save it, it might not get deleted anyways.

Post by: okami129 on June 16, 2011, 02:12:02 pm: What do ya mean by save threads? Is it like save the link or the first page. I really find gorillaz to be both very important threads.

Post by: Rimfrost on June 16, 2011, 02:14:50 pm: Copy the text you have write (and think is important) and paste it in example words, thats what she mean.

Post by: purrito on June 16, 2011, 04:48:10 pm: By 'Save your threads" she means edit your post, copy all of the content in it, paste it into something like notepad and save it to your computer. That way, you have it all backed up IN CASE it gets deleted, which hopefully won't happen!

Post by: Robin_Wolfieh on June 17, 2011, 01:24:36 am: My art thread is outdated...since I have new (and probably better) art, that might not be any use to me. Though, I may be out due to college (next week) and starting, so I might as well start saving my posts that I find relevant.

-Thanks for the news, guys.

Post by: Kutanra on June 18, 2011, 04:42:27 am: What about childboards because there is no way any of my group can copy out over 200 pages for the EOTW childboard
Title: Re: Complete Forum Clean-up And Change! (PLEASE READ)
Post by: Rak$ha on June 18, 2011, 05:36:11 am: Boards are now being deleted and created.
I recommend NOT CREATING ANY OR REPLYING TO ANY THREADS UNTIL I POST HERE SAYING I'M DONE because there is a greater chance it'll be deleted.

(EDIT)

Thank you guys, not many people posted which helped.
All is complete, you can all go around and create threads, post and stuff now C:

The main new board I want to point out is 'The Archives' board, located in the Off Topic section at the bottom of the forum.
From now on, all threads that members ask staff to delete will be moved there, just encase you change your mind and want it back.

Search around the rest of the forum for the new boards ;D

Oh! Now I understand what your getting at.

I'm not sure, but they where probably deleting it so they could move it into a seprate catagory somewhere else.
