Can I add a RSS link of this forum on my RSS reader?

For something like house rules, you need to be able to sort (for example) everything related to “mines”.

The search has improved a lot compared to the old forum software.

Most of the discussion about the structure of the new board has actually taken place over here…

Axis and Allies.org Boards > General > Website/Forum Discussion > What should be the URL of the new forums?

…in a thread that’s actually about the name of the new URL, rather than here in this thread about the new forum organization – so I’m not sure where I should provide feedback.  The present thread seems like the most logical place to discuss ideas for the structure.

Speaking in very general terms: if any of the proposed small number of top-level categories were genuinely to have an inordinately large number of subcategories, in my mind this would be an indication that the top-level categories would need to be re-thought.  Ideally, the number of top-level and sub-level categories ought to be reasonable in both cases.  And if the only way to make one number reasonably small is to make the other number excessively large, no matter how they’re arranged, this might be an indication that a three-level structure is needed (though it wouldn’t be my first option, and though I wouldn’t go beyond three levels).

At any rate, it’s hard to express an opinion without seeing an outline of the entire proposed revised structure, with all the levels indicated.  Could we see what the draft structure currently is?

Hmm for example, try a themed debate, much like the one I had with Tall Paul the other day.

IE, you discuss a topic, and all your responses/shots have to be in puns in reference to a theme…

say for example, a LOTR theme, regarding gun control laws.

“Your point of view SHALL NOT PASS!”

“One does not simply, walk around with a loaded gun.”

“What is this Devilry!”

ETC

I seriously want to play 30 games of global but I do not want to crash the server lol.

I noticed that if I edit… then the dice will all reroll!

HMMM.

I was thinking maybe have moderators delete games long after they are completed.

Just delete everything inactive for more than 6 months. That is super quick. If you want to spend many hours you can save the last file of every single game and put the “title, date, and players”  and post an entire thread with just the last file and the result of who was who and who won.

If that does not clear enough space. Have mods delete games that are completed and recorded. That is it.

I win 3/4th of my games and I will never look at them again. There is no point to them.

In the Forum Help there are examples of the various BB codes there.  I noticed the samples for table cells shows boxes/borders around the cells, but when I try to use it it puts things in rows and columns, but not with borders (see example below).

| col1 | column 2 | #3 |
| Text 1.1 | t-1.2 | row 1 col 3 |
| a | b | c |
| x | y | z |

Is there something I can do to get the cell borders to show up on the forum-tables, or is there some sort of site configuration that does not allow this?  I was experimenting with some table-based things for the forum and I think the borders would make it much more readable.

All i can do is sticky it…  That keeps it near the top of the appropriate category…

In your case Magister, it most likely is a combination of factors.

Your ping time is slow (on a speed test, I typically ping at 31-34 ms) and your bottom-end download speed is also slow.

Combine that with a slow response server (A&A.org), and you are going to get some very poor results.

If you are on Cable, then you need to do some work on your system.  Perhaps too much running in the background, or perhaps you are in need of having a “system tweek”
