A Sensible Suggestion, honest.

[Cz]

There is zero activity on the FFV forum. Now might be a good time to finally merge it with FFI-IV.

Yes, I know this request has been denied before, but back then, FFV had a tiny bit of input. Now it's been reduced to one or two posts a week. That's dead. So rather than have it waste space, couldn't we just add it to FFI-IV?

I apologise if this idea is the stupidest thing you've ever heard.

[crono_logical]

I'd rather 4 be taken out of 1-4 and stuck with 5, since they're on the same consoles, both incarnations of each :p

[Del Murder]

If anything it should be I-III and IV-V. But that would make some people sad because it's always been this way. You don't want to make people sad, do you?

[Cz]

If it makes me happy, then sure.

IV-V would reduce the amount of traffic to I-III (since I and IV are pretty much all people talk about anyway). While it's still preferable to the current setup, it's neater to have I-V in one big bundle.

[Yamaneko]

Don't mess with success. Or in this case, lack thereof. In conclusion, do what you must to get people to post. Thank you.

[Zell's Fists of Fury]

Make it the FFV/Porn Forum. That'll get some posts.

[Shlup]

They're all old. I say make it an FFI-VI forum. :p

[m4tt]

FFVI is more active than FFI-IV and V combined. :p Why mess with that?

[Del Murder]

I-IV is more active than either, actually.

From what I've observed I'd say the level of activity for the gaming forums goes:

General Final Fantasy
Final Fantasy X
Final Fantasy X-2
Final Fantasy VII
Final Fantasy VIII
Kingdom Hearts
Final Fantasy I-IV
Final Fantasy XI
Final Fantasy IX
Final Fantasy VI
General Square Enix
Chrono Cross / Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy XII
Video Game Music / TSW Forum
Final Fantasy Tactics
Final Fantasy V
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance

[TasteyPies]

I agree more or less.

And with that in mind this is the way I think it should be organized, IMHO.

General Final Fantasy
FF I-V
FF VI
FF VII
FF VIII
FF IX
FF X-X2
FF XI
FF XII
FF Crystal chronicles
FF Tactics / Advanced
Kingdom Hearts
Chrono Cross / Trigger
Video Game Music / TSW Forum
General Square Enix

[Shlup]

How it should be ordered in my opinion:

General Gaming
Final Fantasy Games/Movies/Music/Candy

[Meow]

If Square-Enix does anything else of note in the entirety of its uncertain future, i hope it's Sugar-coated Cloud Hair Spikes. They would sell like hotcakes.

[Dr Unne]

How about if we don't change anything, ever. Deal? Deal. Glad that's done with.

But seriously, in answer to the original question in this thread, no.

[Shlup]

But I want to. D:

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

Just don't touch the FF Tactics forums.

[Raistlin]

How about if we don't change anything, ever. Deal? Deal. Glad that's done with.

I say we should add another forum for suggestions like these. It could be called the "Suggestions Unne Can Say No To Forum." Everybody could be allowed to post threads, but only Unne would be allowed to reply.

No.

[Rainecloud]

We should just get rid of the FF forums, because nobody really cares about them any more.

I thought we were in it?

:ditto:

[Citizen Bleys]

Just delete the bloody thing.

[Yamaneko]

Just like that ORPG we used to have. :)

Just like that ORPG we used to have. :)

The FFV forum is a graveyard. A few weeks ago I was going to submit a reply to one of the threads located in the top 10 of the page. I quickly realized the last post was well over a month ago, and to me that would have been reviving a dead thread.

Five games in one forum is too much. I like the idea of merging FFIV and FFV into one forum, but then the FFI-FFIII forum would be dead. Either way, you can't win. So the best solution would be to just leave it alone.

[Del Murder]

FFI and even II get as much traffic in that forum, just for informational purposes. FFI is more poplular than VI at the moment, actually. Probably due to the release of Origins and the upcoming GBA releases. Plus retro is in right now.

[Dr Unne]

FF1 is not retro.

[Del Murder]

My mistake.

[Loony BoB]

I disagree, I think we should make I-III and IV-V forums. If we're not going to change anything, we should never have removed The Coffee Shoppe. >=(

General Gaming
Final Fantasy Games/Movies/Music/Candy

I want candy! A Tifa lollipop! *licks* :D

[Citizen Bleys]

Just like that ORPG we used to have. :)

While we're at it, let's delete Yams.

[Cz]

Sorry, but Yams is an official EoFF heritage site.

[Storm]

I disagree, I think we should make I-III and IV-V forums.

On second thought, that would be a great idea. I grow weary of people refering to FFIV as FF2. Seperating the forums would slightly eliminate the confusion.

I mainly just want FFIV to be more isolated.

[Flying Mullet]

Why not have different FFIV EasyType and FFIV HardType forums?

[Storm]

Why not have different FFIV EasyType and FFIV HardType forums?

After all the confusion regarding the item names in the FFIV trivia thread, I actually wouldn't be opposed to this.

In fact, to save space we could actually get rid of the FFX-2 forum altogether. Nobody plays that game anyways. :p

[crono_logical]

So are we all for moving FF4 out of 1-4 and sticking it with 5? :p

[Storm]

So are we all for moving FF4 out of 1-4 and sticking it with 5? :p

Indeed we are. Even Dr.Unne agrees. :mog:

[Cz]

It certainly beats the current set-up. :D

[TasteyPies]

I agree, with what little value my preference holds.

[Dr Unne]

It stays.

[-N-]

*releases slander about Unne to discredit his opinion* :D

[escobert]

I agree, with what little value my preference holds.

[Storm]

Well, now would be a good time to close this thread since nothing is coming of this feedback.

For the future, I recommend creating a sticky thread informing members not to recommend any change in the organization of the forums.

[Citizen Bleys]

I second the motion.

[Baloki]

Save time and make a sticky thread which says we don't care what you think and close the forum would be just as productive...

[Cz]

But that would cut off our only source of cheap spam.

[Baloki]

Bar General Chat, General Gaming and Video Game Music / TSW Forum of course :D

[Cz]

That's a 25% drop. Could we survive?

I propose we spam up FFV, and kill two birds with one stone.

[Baloki]

Three birds really

[Citizen Bleys]

Four, if you count Boko.

EDIT: Five--it would really rick WesLY if we got rid of Feedback

[Baloki]

Probably 6 as it would also stop the Site Staff bitching about the place as well :D
