Elnaith -> RE: Replace Clan page (1/22/2011 22:23:35)
|
After the merging of the clans a couple of months ago, the clans have become easier to moderate and have actually increased in overall activity when compared to before this change. You're right, changes don't mean they are positive changes. However, in this case it was.
As clans are largely community based, they belong in the community section, not in the game fora. No player created clans, except for ED, are supported by the game at the moment. The game clans of AQ and MQ have fora aimed solely at community. This is all makes them belong in the community section.
Fora do not have to be active, they only are and should be active if the community is interested enough. If they are not interested in the section, that's a pity for those who are, but there is no real reason to promote them, as it were. Remember that they were dying when this move was undertaken.
Having them all in one section makes moderation easier by far. Posts in the last hours is a very complicated way to sift through everything, and less intuitive, especially because clan board have so few posts per day. It is handier to have them all in one section which an AK can look at.
All in all this suggestion would make us return to the problems we had before: spread out, unorganized boards, which were hard to moderate efficiently.
P.S. I'm not sure why you people are discussing titles. It's completely irrelevant to whether this is a good idea as fora are not decided on how to insert it in AK titles.. Also, might I suggest just keeping it Clan? It still fits the bill. Make it Clans if you want.
