 consolidation of subforums;


there are too many subforums, well, too many considering some of the redundant subforums that could easily be done away with. re-wording the details of the subforum, you would easily be able to merge a few together.


this would create a forum alot easier to navigate, along with more discussion as opposed to clicking on 9293494 individual subforums. naturally alot of !@#$ will not be noticed.


also you would have room for a new, completely UNRELATED subforum should one be wanted.


for example, the ENTIRE .:All About Dreadlocks:. section could be fused to ONE or TWO subforums. who posts in FAQ? would i be wrong to say that Dreadlocks, Dreadlocks 911 and Anything Knotty are not short of.. THE SAME THING?


this causes 5 small posts a month and a big pain in the ass.


another example is The Cinema and Entertainment, they are not used frequently enough to be separate subforums. bringing those together would probably have more views, in turn more posts, more discussion and-- more entertainment.


Shameless Self Promotion/For Sale or Trade-- again, the traffic here is light enough for a merge.



Philosophy/Your Thoughts-- ditto.


i haven't been through the *New Subforum Ideas* thread yet, as this just ran across my mind, but we could draw ideas for new topics from there.

maybe one day if i get really really, really bored and there's no more re-runs of the Patridge Family on i'll run through the thread.


WHaT CHU THaNK KL????

I've actually been thinking of something similar as well, All what you said is true, unless there's a reason to keep all those sub Forums, I don't see why it can't be done.

I agree with everything but Cinema/Entertainment. They are both trafficked enough to justify individual forums and its nice to have the "funny" videos separated in an easy to find place away from music and movies ect.

I do agree with it as well, but when it comes to the whole dreadlocks-part I would like to keep an individual FAQ, just with locked threads as a base of information, and then put Anything Knotty and 911 together.

Re: consolidation of subforums;


bump. having less subforums would probably increase chat in drought times when people are enjoying the summer.

Everything feels a bit too scattered around atm and things can often easily fit into at least two subforums anyway.

Re: consolidation of subforums;


I'd go with those merges. I think we need somewhere to have a concise list of answers to the most common questions and posts on here.

just somewhere we can reference people to, or get them to read before they post up. I think we all know there's nothing more annoying than sifting through endless piles of "my hair isn't locking/how do I make dreadlocks/is my hair right for dreads/ various other questions. these could all be answered if we had some sort of K-locks charter or something? that we could collectively write and just keep as our bible. But I would say this needs to be something you can't post comments on, because then we'll end up with the same problem when people only read the last page of comments.

also a lot of stickied topics could be looked at to see whether it's really worth keeping them up.
