Title: Child Boards?
Post by: zanzibar on April 26, 2006, 10:44:56 am

I just realized that the three subforums are under the category of "Child Boards".  Does this mean that individuals over a particular age should stay out of them? :oops:

It means that some of the boards have been doing things they should be >:|

(I personaly can't stand subforums, I'll just end up ignoring them :P)

I think it mean like a board that is the child of the General board

For example : Combat is the child of General...

/me nods to Thormor

"Child Board" basically means "Subforum."

As I implied.

Mostly they are just to seperate the forums into smaller and ultimately overlooked parts.  At which point people will post something that is supposed to be in a child forum in the parent forum.  This thread will be moved to the correct child forum and ignored.

It is mostly saying "Don't talk about this stuff, we don't really care"

...

That's my views anyways :P

I think if done well, it can help you very much too find the things you are looking for (especially if you are new to the forum and don't use the search button)

*edit did you realize this rather belongs to the forum issues than to general discussio? childboards are for organizing this forum, and you nullify the whole thing, great start for the new forum X-/
