Merging dead sections
Quick suggestion. No harm if it's not done, but it just cleans stuff up.
Strategy & Tactical - 11 Threads since 2010
Handheld Gaming - 19 Threads since 2009
Merge into Indie & Misc
C# - 51 Threads since 2009
Merge into C++ / C
Scar/Simba General Discussion - 62 Threads since 2009
Merge into Scar/Simba Help and rename to something suitable
As for the Xbox Screenshots & Clans sections, it seems like it would better fit into one section in the 'Other Games' forums, with the 'Other Games' renamed to 'Games Discussions', and the Clans section for clans in every game (other than RS) rather than just Xbox.

Re: Merging dead sections
IMO the whole Xbox section needs to be scrapped, but other than that I agree with those suggestions. The bottom of the site has some really inactive sections

Re: Merging dead sections
Just merge it into one big section and name it No Mans Land. Just kidding.
I agree. Those sections are easily dead and can't be doing anything but dragging down performance just being there.

Re: Merging dead sections
Not a bad idea. C# doesn't belong with C/C++ though, if anything it should go in the VB section and rename it .NET

Re: Merging dead sections
To be quite honest, the SCAR/SIMBA sections need to be packaged up into one section, then moved to be under Runescape 2 Cheating where that stuff belongs.

I agree. I think this has been talked about before, but never went through?

1) I noticed the games section did need a little more work. I'll look into that.
2) Programming section has needed help for awhile. I'll look into that too.
3) I believe Richard has been the driving force keeping that section alive. If anyone has thoughts for what should be done to fix the section (or make it suitable or just remove it, etc) just post a SPECIFIC suggestion thread about it.
4) We can also discuss that.

The discussion parts of it yes, the Xbox Marketplace however is VERY active. The marketplace will never be merged due to its activity I'd say.

Re: Merging dead sections
Correct me if I'm wrong but, I think Sythe said he wants to keep the programming sections like this. I agree with everything else, though.

Re: Merging dead sections
Good call for the most part, but I think the Xbox section is fine, and hey it's a new section anyway. Support

I dislike having dead sections. I support a merge.

Re: Merging dead sections
I think this is a good idea, there are multiple dead sections.

Re: Merging dead sections
I support this idea wholeheartedly. These sections get almost no traffic, and the forums could be a lot a cleaner if they were reduced and combined.

I made a big song and dance over Xbox section when it moved out of the gaming section into its own section, it was never going to work out, moving xbox from a section that had almost no activity, to its on section was a stupid idea. Also I'm pretty sure the sections you mentioned were all in 1 area but the split them up. Theres actually nowhere now to discuss Playstation which I realy don't get as I lived for that section at one stage.
I would like to see the games section restored to how it was in November.
Which ever staff member decided to change it obviously doesnt have a clue what the section needed, and therefore should of touched it, just making a dead section into more dead sections doesnt fix anything.

Re: Merging dead sections
Denied, the games discussion has since been updated, and the current system works well enough.
