So the layout would be:
Balmung (general discussion)
Events LFRP FC list LS list
Mateus
Events LFRP FC list LS list
Omega
Events LFRP FC list LS list
Other Servers
Events LFRP FC list LS list
Is something like this feasible? Or does it cause you to squint at the screen?
I'm still not following why the FC Hall and LS Halls need to be split into separate forums when they already filter exactly as if they were.
Events and Making connections could be split, but as they are, people are mostly making use of the prefixes already. (Which will eventually lead to easy one-click filters generated in IPS). Looking at both forums, there isn't a whole lot of activity in either. They both have posts 2 weks old still showing on the first page, making new content trivial to find. I could justify that change more easily if they were bustling with posts and users were having a harder time sifting through content. There's an even split on Making Connections as it is. And it's already been touched upon that Mateus users are using their discord over posting on RPC to spread event awareness. An empty forum could possibly be worse than a few entries mixed in with the rest. And when we look at the PLayer Directory, Mateus has a clear majority of the first page, but those posts go all the way down to mid-October. As such, for me personally, it doesn't seem like a split would do anything beyond break our header navigation and introduce extra empty forums, which also increasing the amount of scrolling on the site. (And people will seldom look past what they see initially.)
