What should be the URL of the new forums?
-
I’m starting to set up the new forum software. It’s going to live on it’s own server so I’m working on a new URL for the forums. Please choose your favorite option.
-
I would be great if you can put the “play boardgames” and “league” right up front on the main page, with Gargantua’s KISS instructions and link to triplea for new players. Thanks for keeping the site going and for all you do. We appreciate it.

I voted, thanks for all you do David… this is my favorite website by far.
-
I’m considering fewer top level categories so that Play Boardgames is more front and center.
Announcements
General & Feedback
Axis & Allies
Axis & Allies Miniatures
Play Online
Other Boardgames (combine Variants with other board games)This will orphan a few boards like Find Players. Maybe that goes under “General”?

It’s about to get better. When we can read and respond over mobile easily, you might see a lot more of me here. Probably a lot more of everybody. :-)
Phase 2 (late 2016, early 2017) will include a mobile app. Bam! :mrgreen: Actually for Android, most of the work for the mobile app is done thanks to open source!
-
The only issue right now is badges for patrons and the dice roller. The former is hard, the later is easy-ish.
-
I got my vote in. You have to keep the roller – it’s part of what makes this great site unique! 8-)

No i hate that idea. It just further “hides” older games from any attention. If its not broken lets not fix please.

We already have top level categories and the sub-categories would only be one click away.
The alternative is a huge list of forums that is overwhelming. Part of my objective is to make the forums more accessible to new people.

Can you type in a post what it might look like? ( with all the child boards)
-
I like the word: forum, in the title.
Equslly happy with the singular or plural. (Voted singular.) -

@P@nther:
I voted for
but I will be happy with the plural, too.
Opposite for me, but still true.
Thanks David.

I like the idea of forum discussion threads being on their own and not mixed in with play by forum threads. Table top A&A gaming and online A&A gaming are different in nature, for example: 99.9% of all online games are 1vs1 where table top games can include many group dynamics that change the experience significantly. Also, if play by forum had their own discussion threads on their own child boards, us table top players wouldn’t have to hear so much about things like bids.
-
It looks like http://forums.axisandallies.org is the clear winner. Also, feel free to click that link. :-D You can’t register, I haven’t migrated the posts, and I’m still working on the Dice Bot. It’s a work in progress.
Happy New Year!

Voted!
Thanks for all your dedication David. A lot of people have fun thanks to it!
Happy new year everyone!
