I'm looking at reorganizing the forums in the near future, and I thought I should get some feed back from the people who use the thing before I went and threw it all up in the air. Here's what I'm thinking:

Code:

Release Titles (x)
 - Battlefield 2 (o)
   - Techniques, Strategies, and Guides
   - General Feedback (Complain, Praise, Bugs)
   - Game News and Updates
 - Battlefield 2142 (o)
   - Techniques, Strategies, and Guides
   - General Feedback (Complain, Praise, Bugs)
   - Game News and Updates

Expansions & Mods (x)
 - Armored Fury
 - Euro Force
 - Special Forces
 - POE2

Community (x)
 - Junk Drawer (previously "not bf2s")
 - Debate and Serious Talk
 - Tech
 - Clans (x)
   - Looking For Members
   - Looking For Clan

BF2S Section remains mostly the same, Probably move "Featured Posts" under it.

(x) means no posts in this forum, (o) means general posts allowed, all final chain forums posting allowed

Omissions? Exclusions? Inclusions? Let me know.

I like it.

However, may I recommend an "OMFG ITS THE WEEKEND AND MY STATS R DOWN!" subforum?

That could come under the subheading, 'Questions that have already been answered 100 times previously'

Sounds nice, I would add a section specific to "Patches" in both BF2 and BF2142

I noticed how you only have PoE2 listed, maybe you could have a "Other Mods" section?

Looks good as usual, I would leave a spot for the game they will start on after they release 2142, 3142 the thousand year expansion.

That's what I though too... but EA makes so many patches and they always generate a ton of post that news would be lost in it.

How about a thread purely for funny stuff found on the web. So when people want a laugh (without reading noobs posts) they wont have to look through pages of people whining about the latest patch to find 1 small post with a joke in it

Yes, I like this. I do agree with the others though. It needs a section for when certain things are down, so that the discussion forums don't get clogged everytime something dies. Something like:

Outages
-BF2 Outages
-BF2142 Outages
-"insert mod, expansion, etc" Outages.

Also a section for video's would be good.

As if people will post there. 95% of all "It's Saturday night and my stats won't load" posts are from forum members I've never seen.

Chuy should just code the site so that the words "stats", "down" and "won't load" give you an auto-temp ban if you try and write them in the same post.

Looks good, but in which section will you make site announcements, etc.? There should be at least one BF2S section.
