Merge the VA part and multiplayer into one.

Have you any suggestions for additional forums or improvements?

Merge the VA part and multiplayer into one.

Postby mrjake2002 » Mon Aug 28, 2006 5:54 am

Its annoying, when posting info about a VA, for no one to read it! No one bothers to check the VA bit so nothing ever gets seen. So, my suggestion is, merge the VA bit into the normal multiplayer bit.

Cheers,
MrJake2002.

I see what you mean Jake - most of the posts on the first page have only 0, 1 or 2 replies. Maybe worth incorporating it in to the "Your Site" and "Other Sites" forum (depending on whether the VA is "yours" or not). I think this would be more logical than "Multiplayer", as VA flying isn't necessarily MP... :)

Good suggestion though.

They did used to be one and the same. Alas the VAs used to complain that their ads for their airlines got bumped due to all the MP sessions going on. That is why they're now two forums rather than one ;)

Maybe worth merging them with the your/other sites instead - they seem to be equally as sparsely used - and considering the age of most of the posts in the VA's forum...

well thing is they are the bottom of the list. heck some people dont even make it to th Cafe, much less down there. what we need is a forum shuffle. It's smart both ways. in one way, the current way, the forums are grouped by category of discussion. in the other way, the actual categories are moved around. geez how do i describe this...

say the screenshots category was near the end, the flight sim category is halfway through, and multiplayer is in between, and computer related up top. (thats about the best way i can describe it). this way people go through the whole forum and notice all these little categories that would otherwise be delegated as now, towards the bottom.

just thinking outside the forum :P
