<div class="IPBDescription">Like NS1 Forum</div>I think the actual Forum of NS2 needs more room.
In General Discussion we have a mix of Rage-, Bug-, News-, Kritik-, Love-, Art-... Threads. It is a big chaos and many important Infos get lost on page 3 or more so searching something is a pain (even with search).
It is like everything is in this Subforum (excluding Mapping, E-Team, Modding and I&S). Also IMO too many Threads are webbed.

I would like to see a Structure like the NS1 Forums in NS2 Forum.

We really need more Room at this stage of the game!

Greetings

    not really enough people to warrant more sections. at best there's a few new threads made a day (minus patch release days), and you can still sometimes see a thread's last post being yesterday on the front page.

    I think an organised play section is warranted and needed.

    I think you're really a Kiwi.

    Nah he is Australian and I'm from Switzerland, so no Kiwis here!
    The problem is it is a big mess on this Subforum. It needs to be cleaner so new players find the Infos faster. Every week comes a new post about "Can't find servers" for example.

    4 More subs (Organised Play, Troubleshooting, Tactics, Server) would help a lot!
    It is like Sleeping, Eating, Working, WC and Sport in the same room.

    There's a lot of overlap between posts in General Discussion and the Ideas and Suggestions sections.

    Honestly, we (the devs) don't have a lot of time to browse through multiple forum sections, so, for the time being it is a lot easier for us to just scan through and respond to posts in the General Discussion section. I imagine we'll be expanding the forums more, especially after release, but for the time being keeping it simpler seems to be working ok.

    +1 If nothing else, please add this. As it stands we're all crammed into 2 threads on the general forum.
