My (more important) thoughts on TBT

[Fabioisonfire]

• Get rid of ranks, straight up, it's a no-brainer. Less spam, less confusion, less rank-ism, etc. We aren't (or at least shouldn't be) the NSider.
• Trash some of the unnecessary boards and combine them. (i.e. Forum Games, Advertisements)
• Trash console-specific boards and create three new ones. (Nintendo, Microsoft, Sony)
• Make Brewster's Cafe a sub-forum of Off Topic.
• Make TBT Marketplace a sub-forum of The Bell Tree HQ.
• Do we honestly need like, five Animal Crossing boards? Condense them and create sub-forums. I've always been 'pro-trashing the Animal Crossing theme', but I know that won't happen. I just minimize the entire category anyway.
• I dunno, we already have an Affiliates section, do we really need an Advertisements one, too? It doesn't make sense.
• Revise the rules, I break five to six of them every day.
• Remove the Bell System. It didn't work before, I do not have any confidence in it this time around.
• What is going on with the site? I remember when we finally got that up, it was kind of exciting. I think it'd help the forum overall if we made it, I dunno, active again? Maybe changed the theme slightly? I dunno, something.

'Tis a shame it has to be an animal crossing theme

 

[dragonflamez]

Wait.
The site's not up yet? Didn't that like get put on hold a year ago?

All I remember is that Bul stopped doing those whatever he was doings and then everyone just stopped using it all together.

 

[Phoenix Days]

i agree with all of those basically.

Those are my memories. I say we get rid of it and just use the money to remove advertising and get a domain specifically for the forums.

 

[dragonflamez]

I'll agree with that. What the hell's up with this stupid advertisement that's like a wall of text? Ugh.
And yeah, not digging the Bell system. Again again. We ditched it for a reason, come on guys.

 

[technoxmaniac]

Fabio should make all the changes.
lol

 

[! AlainLeGrand !]

Yeah , our own TBT Domain

*Most forums have ranks. Things aren't usually as bad. The problem is TBT has a lot of idiots and younger members. They are the problem.
*They're sub-forums....I think they're good as they are.
*That sounds like a good idea, but those three [Microsoft; Sony; and Nintendo) being sub-forums.
*Brewster's seems fine as it is.
*I agree with that.
*I agree.
*Meh. I don't really mind the advertisement section.
*Rules definitely need a revising.
*I agree.
*I agree.

 

[dragonflamez]

Don't we like already have a domain though?

 

[! AlainLeGrand !]

Don't we like already have a domain though?

Yeah but not the forum I think

 

[beehdaubs]

....of course the forum is up! The forum is what we are using right now! <_<

It's the new domain that needs to be setup.

 

[NikoKing]

Well, I agree with everything on this thread. I would enjoy a new theme as much as everyone else on this thread.

 

[Nigel]

Brewsters wont be made into a subforum since its the most active forum on the board.

We have several domains already, storm is currently deciding what to do with them.

Wonder how long that will take him xD

Interesting ideas. Do remember that TBT has been going strong for 4 years plus already, and that takes quite a bit... don't want to change the formula too much.

For example, ranks, although they don't mean a ton to you or me right now, 2 or 3 years ago, when we were new members, it was cool ranking up and a nice little side thing to do at the forum.

I remember how fun it was to rank up, but that comes at a much greater cost. I also remember posting spam for the sole purpose of ranking.

 

[Jman]

That's true. Ranking up does mean posting a lot, which would probably be spam.

Maybe we can redirect some people to the old Town Dump board. (Err... Da Fump xD)
