    There's a lot of good ideas flying around here, and heck, this forum is the most active. Why is there only 1 subforum? It's basically a really huge list of things people would like to see. It's a bit overwhelming for anyone who wants to become part of the forums.
    I'm suggesting, for the "Suggestions & Ideas" forum, the subforums:

    -Knight Suggestions/Ideas
    -Archer Suggestions/Ideas
    -Builder Suggestions/Ideas
    -New Classes/ Mechanics
    -Gameplay/ Gamemodes

    But what if my idea involves knights and archer mechanics and I don't want to make a million threads?

    Instead of Knight Suggestions/Ideas Ect. why not have a Classes Suggestions/Ideas subforum?

    Already been suggested.

    I for one agreed with the moderators etc, excessive subforuming is going overboard. I mean we weed out the shitty suggestions pretty quick and the good ones get discussed.

    Click-wise it's easier to view suggestions if they are all in a single subforum, not scattered into 5-10 different sections.

    Moved to Forum and Wiki.

    Archive was only added recently, so before that we didn't even have subforums. However, it's mainly to hold ideas that aren't relevant anymore or are just redundant (suggested multiple times). Any thread that has been untouched for about 2 or more months gets put in there, along with threads that have been locked for being suggested before.

    Adding additional subforums is kind of useless. If they were added, I'd end up having to do more work then necessary.

    I'll just list my reasons for why these subforums are unnecessary.
    • Knight Suggestions/Ideas - there aren't enough threads possibly dealing with just knights (there's about 11 threads)
    • Archer Suggestions/Ideas - there aren't enough threads possibly dealing with just archers (there's about 15 threads)
    • Builder Suggestions/Ideas - there aren't enough threads possibly dealing with just builders (there's about 9 threads)
    This is due to the fact that most suggestions are just additional items being added in general. The fact that they might be limited to class is suggested much later on in the thread.
    • New Classes - The devs are going to add their own classes. They aren't going to use any class in that section period as they know which ones they are going to add, what they are going to do and etc. That's why there's only one sticky, which just collects them all in one thread.
    • Game Modes - Not enough threads on them (only about 12 of them)
    • Game Mechanics - Too broad and general. Around half the ideas already on there would fit in this category.
    • New Mechanics - Same Game Mechanics
    (I've read every single suggestion ever, so I know what I'm talking about)

    As Potato said, bad ideas get weeded out.
    Also, it'd end up giving me more work to do, blegh.
