I hear a lot of people saying that we have too many boards, so I'm giving you a choice on which we're going to cut/condense.
2 choices per person, the 2 highest will be analyzed, and the admin staff will pick what to do with them.
GO.

Make one big Pokemon board and just delete the TP one. The game sucked anyway.

Personally, I think the Twilight Princess discussion can be routed to the Zelda board itself, and there is absolutely no need for a Rate my Team board (child board of Pokemon), however, the second one I mentioned isn't a choice.

Post by: metroidhunter777 on October 18, 2007, 03:59:20 PM
1) TP doesn't deserve its own board
2) Rate My Team can just go under Pokémon.
3) Anyone who says the Guitar Hero board should be deleted should be burned at the stake or something to that extent.

*looks at poll count*

*prepares stake*

Basically any sub-categories for a game series should just go into that series' board.

Every DS board besides Metroid PH and Zelda PH (lulz at the similarity) should be consolidated into either the general Wifi or DS discussion boards. Pogemons should be lumped together, and the NGC board should merge into the Legacy board as well.

Title: Re: So you want fewer boards, huh?
Post by: NOA_ANDY on October 18, 2007, 04:15:13 PM
Actually, I'd find it a poor decision to merge teh Diamond, Pearl and PBR board with the Pokemon board, it would then lower the actual discussion altogether on the Pokemon board (with some of the "trade" threads that'll appear)

I say get rid of all of them and just make a general board for every series.

Zelda
Pokemon
Mario
Metroid

Then have The NP Section Just Power on, Power On RP, Fan Art and Serious Discussion.

Also throw any RPGs into Epic Center unless it's a game that just came out.  Even then you could probably just make a floated thread in Epic Center about it.   I don't see the point in making a new board for every new game that comes out.  Series boards would get more activity and look more active if discussion of the newest games was confined to those boards rather then separate sub-boards.

I added "rate my team" after getting a few PMs about the threads being all over the pokemon board, so people asked for a board to put them in.

Actually, now that I've seen all the boards this is what I think now:

-Combine the forum help board and questions comments concerns board
-Absorb LoZ: PH and TP boards into the Zelda Board
-Absorb MK DS and MSC Boards into Mario Board
-Add GCN board to Legacy Systems, since the system itself is dead
-Combine General Wii and VC boards
-Make one massive Pokemon Board
-Add Fire Emblem into Epic Center
-AC:WW into DS Games
-Add MPH board in Metroid Board
-Add Tetris DS Board into Other WFC Games

I originally voted for Rate My Team and Twilight Princess, although I would change Rate My Team to Tetris now that I think of it...

In my opinion, it should be:
Merge NSider Forums Help with Comments, Concerns, Suggestions
Remove less active Wi-Fi boards, especially Tetris DS along with possibly Mario Kart DS, Diddy Kong Racing DS, and/or Custom Robo Arena.
Absorb Nintendo Gamecube Games into Legacy Systems.
Remove Guitar Hero.
Remove child board Rate my team.
Remove child board The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

Uh... that would remove 4-7 of the boards from the main page and two child boards :-\

Rate my team needs to go. A floated thread worked just fine on the real Nsider. This place has far lest traffic than that. We don't need a board for it.  In fact, the whole D/P board needs to go. It existed on the old Nsider because the place got WAYY too fast when D/P came out. Considering, again, the lower traffic here, and the fact that the D/P/PBR stuff has had time to mellow out, I think we should cut the Pokemon boards down to a single board. It's all we need. Really, I don't think we need multiple boards for the same series. We just don't have the traffic to warrant it. It just leaves the two boards completely dead.

Basically, I think the WiFi section needs to be gutted. Take it down to a" NWFC General" board, a "NWFC Games" board, and maybe a Tech Help board if the posts on NWFC General seem to warrant it. All the games go to their regular series boards, mabye with a floated thread for matchmaking. If the series does not have a board, WiFi matchmaking can take place in the NWFC Games board.

i don't see the point in having a twilight princess board because theres a Zelda board, and its not like this place is active enough to be able to pull off 2 boards having pretty much the same purpose.

the Diamond/Pearl board is kind of the same, but that game has more of a reason because of the WiFi issue.

It's for novelties purpose. And mostly nostalgia, looking back people would think it was the crown jewel of NSider. This may or may not be true, but the places big posters all disappeared. And that was long before the NSider shutdown.
