This is a serious suggestion. It's time to axe some forums. Less is more. My suggestions:

Axe: Gatherings, Feedback, (as much as I hate this) SNK vs Capcom

Combine: Hyper and 24bit and have one section for "SNK's arcade and home systems"

I'd really like to see the hyper, 24bit, and General Discussion all moved into just one forum, but I have a feeling that'd go over a like a fart in church. Seriously though, it's almost as bad as s-c.com's sub-forums (might as well be).

I don't really care for Feedback because I rarely buy or sell anything so let's see how it turns out. Seems to be a promising forum for tEh drama (with lots of funny "<enter name here> is a scammer, beWaRe!!12!" threads...).

However, I agree that there are too many forums now, and 24bit is still there, with the same lame name (woah, alliteration time...). . . . make it a NGCD forum already, more than 50% of the ppl voted for that in the poll about axing/renaming 24bit.

yeah, I think every member should have a feed back thread - only one thread too. I have already had to lock up a few bullshit threads in there. Let's keep it clean, and easy to search through.

kthxbi.

A suggestion for the feedback forum, is there any way to just make a searchable member list that you can leave a + or - and a comment for?

I'm all for the combining of 24-bit, Hyper 64, and General too

I think the feedback forum should get the axe. Maybe an eBay style feedback for each member would be a good idea. The 24-bit and Hyper 64 forums need to stay separate.

Agree with combining 24bit and General...

Disagree with removing Feedback and especially Gatherings....

Feedback I'm kinda indifferent about, lets give it a try...if the mods have to much trouble with it then let it go bye bye...

Gatherings is the best addition to the forums IMO.

Since we haven't even seen how the new forums have done, saying "axe this-or-that" is a little hasty.

I see how they LOOK---and its like shit.
What was the reason for this upgrade? Sean wanted to compete with Trieu to see how gay their forums could get?

Up next: 150x150 avatars.

Exactly...holy shite, its only been up 1 day and peeps are trying to get it removed. Leave it be for at least a week or 2 and see how much more clean certain sections are w/o seeing Meetings and Feedback threads mixed in w/ them. I like the new setup because i think it IS CLEANER. I don't have to go to Gatherings cuz theres only 4 or 5 peeps in my neck-of-the-woods and i'll only check feedback when i'm lookn for a seller but Scanning the other sections will be easier w/o the extra crap in there. I vote we leave it as is and see how it werx! :cool:
