    D2 Forum Layout Change?

    I'm no great fan of change for change's sake,
    This layout is now 9 years old,, (and the site itself over 15!!)


    The D3/4 Forum now has a "Sub" Forum for all its "Stickies"
    Do we want this?


    The big advantage of this is (for us) around 30% more space available on the front page,,,
    Is this enough reason to change?

    The big negative for us is ALL that info wont be on show,,

    which means more work for us pointing new members to our Stickies,,
    (are they still stickies if not on the front page? )



    This will affect us all so please let me know your thoughts,,

    Thanks,,
    Pedro

    D2 Forum Layout Change?

    I have no objections to the change!
    It'd be better for viewing on the phone as well, this is all I see when I first connect to the D2 section.



    So it'd be good I think?

    It's just an extra tab that you have to click to get to the stickies yeah??

    I agree! Have one sticky tab at the top and call it Faqs or something, will free up a lot of space as most people probably rarely use them post anyways. I would probably leave the welcome, photos and rules out though that way the most used ones are available easily, that will make 8 stickies into 4.

    Just did a quick check on the D3/4 forum and there's still announcements and stickies on the front page??



    Will it be like this or just have the one tab, I think all or nothing?

    So just the tab and not the other section (as show below)

    Hmmm,, this was meant as a serious question,,
    I dont take changes to our Forum lightly, and you shouldnt either....


    and as such all posts that dont have an opinion on the Question,
    will be deleted.




    Lemo's reasons for his opinion is Excellent!!

    Serious or not sometimes chill pill`s work really well
    Oh on your your serious point do i care about change not !
    What will happen will happen ,
    Will the world stop spinning i bet not
    So i don`t really worry about insignificant things to be too serious nor worried or upset ,
    On and upwards

    I agree with Lemo, but I do notice that there are still stickies on the D3 D4 Forum which I think are unnecessary, the "Sub" Forum link is all you need.

    I think an FAQ link would tidy things up a bit. I vote Yes
