First of all, I've moved this topic from the 'General' subforum to the 'Forum & Website' subforum, because it's about the forum
Let me explain the changes of this forum.
1.
Greek & Dutch language sections now each contain 3 subforums
Because the greek subforum is very crowded, it was difficult to moderate. That's why the moderators of the greek room wanted to split it into 3 parts (subforums):
The Gathering,
Music, and
General.
The same splitting (
The Gathering,
Music,
General) was done for the dutch subforums.
Maybe in future I can do the same plitting for other crowded language rooms like the french and italian.
2.
english section: spreading Polls
The english language if the 'standard' language of this forum that's one of the reasons that the english section has more subforums that any of the other language rooms.
Because of this splitting (greek, dutch subforums) there are more subforums on this forum than before. So I had a look to see if it was possible to reduce the number of english subforums a bit.
I decided to spread the topics of the english
Polls over the other english subforums. Because polls were opened in the other subforums as well (it was not forbidden to do), so a seperate
Polls subforum was a bit needless.
3.
Titles of sections and subforums
The dutch and greek sections both have a subforum about
The Gathering. The forum software requires that each subforum has a unique name which is not in use elsewhere on the forum. So unfortunately (I agree short titles are more clear) it's not possible to simply name all of them
The Gathering. That's why I've add the language in front of it:
English • The Gathering,
Dutch • The Gathering and
Greek • The Gathering.
In past there were 2 seperate english sections:
English (The Gathering) [containing subforums about TG] and
'English (other) [containing Music and General]. I've combined these 2 english sections into 1. So there is only 1 english section, and 1 dutch, and 1 greek and 1 for the other language rooms.
Because the English section has more subforums about
The Gathering, all the titles of these subforums start with
English • The Gathering followed by a specification, like
English • The Gathering • These Good People and
English • The Gathering • Concerts.
It's not possible to make a part of a title in a different color or bold. So the whole title is written in the same font.
Suggestions for an easier and more clear division and titles are welcome.
And I'll open a poll about the number of subforums for the specific language rooms.
