seperate out ff 1-4

[Cloud No.9]

would it be possible to either seperate out these games (and other categories like it such s KH and chrono) or create sub sections for them inside their sections? (same for the lounge possibly)?

as it can be a little confusing and hard to hift through all the threads on the different games in the same environment.

just an idea.

[edczxcvbnm]

If anything forums need to be condensed. FFI-III, FFIV-VI, FFVIII-FFX, FFX-2-FFXI(eventually 12 but not for a long while). FFVII gets to stay by itself only because of the massive amount of games and stuff happening with it.

I used to think something like this was a good idea untill I came across a forum called Gaia. They have too many sub forums, and it's a complete mess.

Games like FFV simply don't generate enough traffic of their own, and so combining these forums would keep things nice and neat, instead of having dormant forums all over the place.

Of course, this suggestion has been refused before, but we've had a lot of staff changes recently. Did I mention how nice the new guys are? :D

[nik0tine]

Personally, I say you just get rid of all the FF7 spinoff forums. All of those topics belong in the FF7 forum anyway. Also, is there a Spirits Within forum? If so, that one needs to go too... We just need to forget about that movie.

[Craig]

The TSW forum is also a music forum. Also, why are I-IV put together when V and VI get their own?

[Cloud No.9]

could we not place sub sections in each of the sections that are currently in place?

[nik0tine]

Maybe we should heed Sephexs advice.

I think FFIV should have its own forum too, but it frankly doesn't generate enough traffic. Just like FFV--it has its own forum, but it's slow, so we might as well make a I-V forum, or the I-IV and V/VI.

I think we should just combine all of the games I don't like as much into one big forum, and the games I do like should have their own forums. That'd work for me.

[theundeadhero]

I could agree with putting V in with I-IV, but making a forum for each game won't happen because they don't get enough topics on their own.

[crono_logical]

I'd like 1-3 and 4-5, but I think Cid doesn't want that change as far as I remember. And certainly as few subforums as possible, because they can get messy :p

[Necronopticous]

I think Final Fantasy IV could hold its own as a forum by itself, but then again, I'm a biased jerk, what do I know?

[TasteyPies]

Definitly put the ff7 spin-offs back into the ff7 area. They just make it look messy and DON'T need their own section. Then we would have more space to split up 1-4

[Del Murder]

This subject of the FFI-IV split comes up every few months and even though it makes sense, it has been widely accepted that it will never change.

FFVII: AC will get a lot of traffic once the movie comes out, and besides it already does already. More than Crystal Chronicles and the Tactics forums, at least.

FFVII: DC will get more traffic when the game comes out. I also think Sean put it there to promote some website, so it stays.

[Yamaneko]

What's the point? We're all going to die anyway.

[XxSephirothxX]

Combining the FFVII forums wouldn't be a great idea anyway; the normal FFVII forum is busier than all of the other game-specific forums, and is a lot busier than many of them to boot. If any change was made, I'd say stick FFV in with the first four, or find some way to combine the less-busy forums like Tactics and Crystal Chronicles. It's not really bad the way it is, though.

EDIT: Why do the Tactics games really need seperate forums anyway? They could be combined easily, and neither is very busy. I don't see how it could cause any problems, unless Cid wanted it that way like he did for 1-5 or whatever.

[Del Murder]

Yes, FFVII is by far the most active gaming forum.

[rubah]

FF5 deserves it's own forum, because it is just that awesome.

We could combine CC and Feedback though. No one would ever notice.

[Del Murder]

The Tactics forums could be merged due to lack of activity, but they aren't really causing any harm down there. They are separate games, after all.

[theundeadhero]

We could merge the FFVII sub-forums together. Then FFVII would stand alone and the subforums would be minimilized.

Aw, where's the paranoid android?

I don't believe that was a Marvin quote, but it does sound familiar. <img src="http://www.fools-gold.org/forum/images/smilies/avatar827_8.gif" align="absmiddle" />

Probably posted millions of times on LJ.

Since Marvin ended up being about five times older than God, it doesn't sound like something he would say.

[The Man]

valid point.

[eestlinc]

This will never happen.

[Destai]

LOOK AT MY IMPORTANT SUGGESTIOIN WHICH IS VERY CLEVER-NOTICE ME

I think there should be a FF I-III forum named FF Origins and an FF IV-V, or IV-VI forums named FF Anthologies (like the european edition of the game pack for FF IV and V) an Anthology is A collection of literary pieces, such as poems, short stories, or plays. . Well I think that would be classy anyway.

[TasteyPies]

I like that idea we should do that.

By we I mean you guys.

[Destai]

party at my place.

[eestlinc]

You are not helping your cause. of course, nothing will help your cause.

[Hawkeye]

Then why bother?

[eestlinc]

exactly

[TasteyPies]

Let it never be said that www.eyesonff.com doesn't listen to its members.

[eestlinc]

we listen, but in this case we have repeatedly chosen to disagree.

[Destai]

But you do agree my idea rox, right?

[eestlinc]

no

Yeah, isn't the guy who started this thread "not a newb"? Seriously man, I've seen so many goddamn versions of this thread over the years and nothing changes. Except the descriptions. :p

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

If we merge Tactics and Tactics Advance I demand the right to rip Tactics Advance endlessly in every TA thread and extol the virtues of Tactics.

[Big D]

Cid's happy with the current forum/sub-forum layout, and it's working well enough so it won't be changed. He's the boss for a reason, after all, and that reason is that he knows what works and what doesn't:cool:

Next he'll ask for a Xenogears forum.
