Removal of the runescape section

[Chris]

Oh look, activity is poor, lets remove this section.

It wasn't purely down to the activity of the forum. Anyway it is gone for good and it isn't coming back. Not everybody will be pleased with the decision but thats the way it is.

I think it's fine as it is at the moment with the Runescape prefix, but if there is a lot of threads and discussion on Runescape then I a forum/sub-forum could be made for it. But may as well see how it goes the way it is now .

Please elaborate then. Don't just remove a section without giving reasoning to why it got removed, that isn't fair.

What other reasons were there then?

I'm indifferent on whether it has it's own or stays merged, but saying there were 2/3 threads/posts in 2 weeks just isn't true The section was popular enough to stand on it's own feet.

I said at the time there was something like 5-6?

The only posts that were active really was achievements and from getting like 100-150 post count from that I can see why 'gratz on the lvl!!!' etc not looked lately if it's still the same but yeah.

At times activity picks up then it dies off, any other games that follow that (CoD series, Minecraft, WoW, etc) always got moved to a subforum (which is now seen as pointless so merged into the forum).

So instead of a forum you use a prefix now...

That's the thing though, the section will die completely now. Perhaps activity in the forum wasn't great but at the same time there was threads that were very popular such as achievements, runescape updates, all them will die because the section is too confusing and not easy to access threads you ACTUALLY want to see. I don't see why something like a subforum just for runescape couldn't be introduced. It's by far the most discussed game on this forum apart from habbo.

Go and read the feedback thread.

It's not like it was a snap decision to remove it. The runescape forum was a mess because it had forum within forum within forum which wasn't at all needed. The way we have it now is so much easier to navigate, you can even click the prefixes so it will only show threads with the same prefix.

It's confusing because theres a prefix? :S

WoW got it's own sub-forum? Wow I'm not bothered about using a prefix, I can just imagine people complaining in the future that it's just RS threads Also makes it a pain if you want to look at RS threads before the change, because they don't have a prefix.

It previously had under 'Online Games'

tbh most of the forums in the section will be RS anyway as most people don't really post about other MMO's
