i hate this new forum thing

I don't see why you are all complaining about, 3 sub-forums which means if you want Nintendo you have a whole section for it, if you want to discuss games generally then use the main forum, you all seem to just go looking into the negative and pretty pointless things that don't matter.

I am looking at the more accessible route for this forum. It was perfectly fine the way it was. You could see all the threads related to all the consoles, even people without the consoles could see whatever information and discussions are available. This just divides the whole point of discussion between different consoles. As someone stated above, where do you put threads regarding old consoles? Like SEGA?

Putting them in the 'main forum' just means no one looking at them. The whole point of sub-forums is to look directly at the in most cases, because they are catagorised and shown as the main forums in this forum.



It doesn't stop fan boys posting in threads that they have no right to, they just simply go in the forum. I don't see what this is trying to solve "/

Also one big forum meant that it was all just clumped together, you didn't know if they were talking about the Wii, PS3, 360 or just another console/handheld in general, now it's easier.

There wasn't an issue to begin with "/ The only issue was with people talking about Nintendo Wi-Fi. What console were they talking about? The DS, or the Wii? That's the only problem I have come across, people normally mention what game they are talking about, even though threads made in the forum discuss a game as a whole, if there are special features for a console, they can be added. Simple. This just means loads of thread sabout one game and confusion when you see the thread on the catagory listings on the index page. You may not realise that the GTA IV you thought was about general chat, was actually about specific XBOX information and you accidently mention PS3 features (if any).

And if you want multi-console discussion you can have it, can't see why you lot never look into the good points, it's always bad, and this has no bad points :rolleyes:

But where do you put multi-console discussions? Will anyone actually do that? Most people post about a game for a specific console, rather than the game in general "/

These 3 forums cause more problems than they were apparently meant to solve. Was there even a problem? I didn't see a thread concerning this anywhere, they just appeared "/

Well you can't really say it's going to cause problems, how can splitting up the three cause problems at all? It's sub-forums not installing a new untested piece of software, if people want general console discussion the main forum is there there, it's not like it's been removed all that's happened is sub-forums were created so people could either just sit on one and not have to worry about chat from the other console types, you all act as if rule within the console section have been completly dropped or something and try to make a big deal out of nothing

Make a thread about it...? :S It's going to be exactly the same as before? Hardly anything is changing apart from it being seperated
