**kookai** Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 Also I might take pains to note that (unless we decide against it later) to my best knowledge, this is not gonna be a permanent concrete thing. It's primarily to deal with the influx of Green Day stuff surrounding the new album. When it quiets down a bit (I do realize how far ahead I am thinking) they could well get merged back together.I'm with you my friend.... anyways, I hardly look for general topic nowdays.... right now I just want to hear about whats going on with green day
fukingcounterstrike Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 since when do you bend so easily fuzz keep being a stubborn asshole and do things your way like you use to.
Guest Shangri-La Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 the gd news needs its own section....that is all.
Doug Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I'm torn between yes and no. Logically, yes. Illogically, no.It might make new members posting in the wrong section more ridiculous than it already is, but we do have a lot more mods now. I also liked these being merged just because it was a one stop place for everything I cared about. I guess I'll be clicking back and forth a lot more now. I would like to switch back just for the sake of convenience when it's all said and done though. We'll see how it works out.
rootbeersoup Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 Jose must have been here, because the results are full of winAnd put General down by Off-Topic because that's where I hang nowadays
music_that_is Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 NOOO!lol. Don't split them, the forum will be like any other minor forum on the net. This was one of the few things that I like about GDC .But if you do split them, then merge them back when things "chill out"
Guest Hayley Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 Personally I like it the way it is now but we should split it for a while.So yes.
AlanJLegend Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I'd say definitely split them up.When I came back here after not being on for years, I was confused as to why there was not separate sections for Green Day and General Chat. They are both completely different topics!
Jaelle Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I vote no. I was against it before, and I'm against it now. You should leave it the way it is. It may seem messy now, but it'll be even more messy if you split it.
Dai. Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 It may seem messy now, but it'll be even more messy if you split it.How so?
Jaelle Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 How so?Well, that way there will be more sections. Too many sections (or sub-sections) make a forum messy to me. GDC has been like this (one section) since the beginning, I don't see why it needs to be changed now.
Princess Consuela Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I think they should be split by the time things cool down.
Green Jay Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 We should have General and Green Day seperated, and maybe put them back when things calm down. I'm very lazy and I can't be arsed to be checking 2 forums!It's always been this way and I hate change.
chatnoir Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I wanted to suggest that in the suggestion thread, but backed away from it, because I was afraid, that people would start yelling at me.... I voted for split and merge later back together.can you stick it right before on the road?so like...Green DayGeneral ChatOn the roadBecause then at least it's still sort of in the same placeyeah, thats the other option besides moving it down to 'community'. it'd just be even more out of place under a "Green Day" section.Then you could make it an equal undersection to Green Day and Community maybe. As the second one right under Green Day.Oh yeah and also it'll create two separate groups of people on here and I like us all mixed up together That's why I tended to be against a split also, but it has gotten all a bit too chaotic lately, I think. And people, who are not that much into GD anymore, are not posting in the GD threads anyway. At least not that much, that it would make a difference.The reason it's hard to keep up with the Green Day posts at the moment isn't because of the general threads - it's just becuase there's so many Green Day threads! The few general ones in between make no difference to that.the gd news needs its own section....that is all.I also think, that all the news threads needed to be more structured somehow. But I also see the problem, that using too many subforums can be annoying.i don't wanna make a "non-green day" button. I don't like that technology. In the end, this forum is utterly awesome anyway. Splitting up or not won't change that.
klytaemnestra Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 yesyesyes.trying to keep up with everything is insane right now.so i say yeah, but then when things get quieter, merge them back. :]
Guest 16PaperLanterns Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 yes, but merge them later when things chill out. :]
Kryssi. Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I think I voted wrong. I voted for yes, but merge when things calm down.That's definitely a good idea that you should split the two, because we end up having loads and loads of threads in the section, and maybe it would help you lot filter it a lot better
rich_505 Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 Split them up, it's only one extra forums.EDIT- I can't count.
gmcloughlin Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I think they should be split for the moment.But we gotta remember, things will quiet down again.Then there'll be no need to have them split
badwolf Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 Yes because all the threads get mixed up and it's hard to find a specific thread. :/
Milo Goes To Pasalacqua Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I voted yeah. I always thought the two should be seperate anyways. I would find it much easier to navigate and it would keep things more organized.
