Just a slight plan by me, feel free to comment/whine/complain about it:

- Entertainment/Sports: Split back into Entertainment(/Movies/TV/Anime) and Sports

- Move Entertainment, Sports, Gaming, Emulation, and Tournaments under one category

- Add Writing*, move SimBattle, Story Forum, and Modern Art to the same category

? Move Femine, Officers, Debate to their own category (as well as mabye some other forum I forgot)

? Move Craziness, Brain Teasers, etc to the same category as General

? Add two seperate forum layotus: ROM-Hacking on top, ROM-Hacking on bottom (to switch between "ROM Hacking oriented" and "Non-ROM Hacking", to get the forums out of the way for everyone else and vice-versa)


*Xkeeper considers.

I really like that idea, for most people it is usually one or the other and it would work quite well for the purpose you're seeking. Mostly I think new categories aren't a bad idea at all, re-arrangement looks good as I see it. Only thing is that I like Entertainment/Sports in one category, but if you're splitting it, that'd probably work well anyway.

I see no problems with this, other than moving romhacking around. I like it in the middle, although the option would be good for people who do not look at that forum.

I like it.

I'm actually secretly considering adding a forum arrangement like nesvideos, but it'd just be another "silent" option and off by default.

- Entertainment/Sports: Split back into Entertainment(/Movies/TV/Anime) and Sports

Meh, it's fine as it is.

- Move Entertainment, Sports, Gaming, Emulation, and Tournaments under one category

That would make sense.

- Add Writing*, move SimBattle, Story Forum, and Modern Art to the same category


Sorting all the creative arts into one category. Excellent idea.

? Move Femine, Officers, Debate to their own category (as well as mabye some other forum I forgot)

Serious discussion category? Femine seems a little too lighthearted at times for that, but it could work. I guess.

? Move Craziness, Brain Teasers, etc to the same category as General


Okay.

? Add two seperate forum layotus: ROM-Hacking on top, ROM-Hacking on bottom (to switch between "ROM Hacking oriented" and "Non-ROM Hacking", to get the forums out of the way for everyone else and vice-versa)

As long as ROM hacking on top (and by that, I mean kept where it is now) is the default, everything will be fine with this.

I'm actually secretly considering adding a forum arrangement like nesvideos, but it'd just be another "silent" option and off by default.

As long as it doesn't affect me, I'm cool with this. Personally, I think it looks a little cluttered, but some may beg to differ.

Maybe its me, but that forums slow enough as it is. This'll just take up more space I'd say ... best off if this were left the same, in my opinion.

- Move Entertainment, Sports, Gaming, Emulation, and Tournaments under one category
Cool

- Add Writing*, move SimBattle, Story Forum, and Modern Art to the same category
Cool

? Move Femine, Officers, Debate to their own category (as well as mabye some other forum I forgot)
Cool

? Move Craziness, Brain Teasers, etc to the same category as General
Yeah

? Add two seperate forum layotus: ROM-Hacking on top, ROM-Hacking on bottom (to switch between "ROM Hacking oriented" and "Non-ROM Hacking", to get the forums out of the way for everyone else and vice-versa)
Meh, I've been fine with the breaking categories down option and stuff.

All of these sound good to me. Unlike some places *Shakes fist at VGF*, you don't have the compulsion to have 100 separate forums instead of one for everything people want to post about that doesn't work in a pre-existing forum.

My opinion: Leave Entertainment/Sports the way it is.

I don't really care what categories the various forums are under, so rearrange all you want.

I kinda liked it when Modern Art was in General, but only because it was up at the top. I guess that's being kinda selfish.


But...


~Split up Sports/Entertainment into Sports and General Entertainment.
~Move Modern Art, Sports, and General Entertainment to General category.

Oh, and the Debate/Femine's/Officers category could be called... "Mature Discussion", maybe?

Agreed. It's neat + awesome. I think that's the way it should be if you ignore the below text.

I like the idea of doing all those ideas EXCEPT the one about Craziness and Brain Teasers to General. I believe it would confuse....

All of the suggested rearrangements sound A-OK to me. The separate sports forum is worth a shot. There might not be all that many sports threads in the general entertainment forum at the moment, but a separate forum might wind up being popular. And if it flops, then the threads will just get merged into general entertainment.

I like the compact board index, too.

It's an option in your profiles, now.

My only real problem is that you lose the descriptions of forums.

My Arrangement Idea:

(ROM Hacking)

General
General
Craziness
Brain Teasers
Help/Suggestions


Serious Business
Officer's
Debate
Femine's


Electronics and Entertainment
TV/Anime
Sports
Gaming
Emulation
Hardware/Software


Creative
Modern Art
Writing
SF
SB


(ROM Hacking)

Crap
Display Case
Trash Can


(the romhacking obviously moving depending on chosen layout)



Actually, that pretty well addresses all the ideas in the original post.

It appears Programming/HardwareSoftware has fallen off your list into the Void.

Perhaps that should be remidied

The descriptions have been re-enabled, but they're seperate (usually super-condensed) ones.

Personally, I like them better.

It's so generic I love it.
