GOOD DAY: Feedback

Tez

This is just to go with the locked announcement post.

Pavel

This sort of scenario (a main post with a linked feedback post) is also how we intend to deal with any and all advertising threads that pop up. The intention being that the advertising post itself will remain unadulterated except for updates from the advertiser, with questions, comments, and feedback being made in this forum or in the Rough and Rowdy section.

Roz

half-joking but not really is pavel hiding

Tez

Joke’s on him if so.

Two quick things:

I don’t see a rough and rowdy section
Where do we discuss games? It seems like an advert from a game shouldn’t have an immediate link into a rough and rowdy thread, but I’m not really seeing where game discussion goes?

sao

@glitch You have to add yourself to the group under ‘groups’ in order to see the rough and rowdy section.

glitch

@sao Well yes, but I only know that because it was mentioned that the category existed and I’m familiar with how nodebb works. Otherwise, it’s just a group called Howdy.

ETA: Though I do think it might be an oversight not to have a category to, you know, talk about MUs.

Tez

My intention was that the helpful section would be that, but you are the second person to ask about it so there is clearly a gap. Take recommendations for forum names, extra beans to alliteration.

@Tez Helpful seems more directed at providing assistance, even if it’s just feedback regarding a posed topic. I do think a category specifically focused on game talk might be good.

I suggest Game Gab.

I can understand this thinking, and concur. Do you have any suggestions for the ‘description’ section of the category?

glitch

@Pavel Maybe something along the lines of:

Thoughts and questions about current, upcoming, and advertised games.

I also think the Helping Hands description could be narrowed a bit and more clear? Cut out references to non-gaming and leave that for No Escape from Reality.

Code, Theme, Policies, Game Design – Conversation about how to do things better in gaming. Keep it friendly.

Pavel

That works for me. I’ll save the adding of another category for @Tez, they’ve got the colour scheme touch that I can’t match. But I’ll edit the Helping Hands description.

Tez

New category set up. HERE ARE YOUR BEANS FOR ALLITERATION:

Then stop saying things I disagree with. The silence will continue until morale improves. My morale, that is, not yours.

Suggestion: Change the colors of groups.

To what, and why?

glitch

I don’t care to what, but so when I look down a list of names on a thread, I can more easily distinguish between tags.

I’ll put this down as a low priority request, then.

glitch

Yes, right below all those high and medium priority requests in the queue.
