This is just a way to make it a bit easier for everyone, because people who have done this kind of this before will see this thread and want to post whatever help they can.
Thank you, I agree with you.....No offense but this forum is so scattered. One has to spend so much time searching and searching and still will miss important info.
We had this problem in our Midnight Mansion iMac Game forum. The forum members are allowed to create custom mansions for everyone to play, after they purchased the initial game. There are over 100 CM's. Finding clues was a nightmare. It took days upon days of searching every thread or post.
Finally now, which I think would work beautifully here as well, the game designer agreed to clean it up by listing each CM game title separately in alphabetical order. Now, if we want to find something it is real easy. We just go to the game name and voila! Quick as a wink.
It took a while to find all the posts and group them, but the effort sure paid off.
This system is much needed here as well. This forum is so big now, that newbies like me have to spend so much time searching and still miss things, why, because of the time it takes to find things.
All models should have their own section......PERIOD.
And in that section you could have separate topics ie: battery life or
atty's or carts. But at least all the info pertaining to a certain model is under one category. It sure stops redundancy. It really frees up a lot of space because people don't have to post the same questions over and over, because they can't find the answers.
I know, I know, some of you will post reasons why not.....we had that problem with members negativity as well, but in the end, the game designer sided with some of us that had common sense and he did make the change. Life is so much easier now. Our forum is not scattered. It is logical and easy.
just my 3 cents.
