Please vote in the poll.
You guys may have noticed the sub forums for the main forums are now visible.
Is it to cluttered? Do you like being able to see whats there?
Let the site know what you think.
Great-I like them a lot
Yuck-To cluttered
Meh-I'm cool either way
Like the idea but I have another suggestion
Visible Sub-Forums--what do YOU think?

I voted "Great-I like them a lot". I've been wanting something like this, especially for The Baronies section of the message board, for awhile now.
"It's his eyes, Roland thought. They were wide and terrible, the eyes of a dragon in human form" - Roland seeing the Crimson King for the first time.
"When the King comes and the Tower falls, sai, all such pretty things as yours will be broken. Then there will be darkness and nothing but the howl of Discordia and the cries of the can toi" - From Song of Susannah
I think you know how I voted.
I think it would be better without the little blue and white pages in there (which I realize defeats the purpose) but I think that might be what makes it look so cluttered.

as i saw the title of the thread, i was thinking to myself "i wonder if there will be a 'meh' option?" and there was!
i could go either way...regarding the subforums.
I could take them or leave them, because I almost always navigate the site via the new posts link anyway.
There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.
i feel i must say that i'm not a fan of the little page icon thingys...whatever they're called. i'm assuming they're tied into this change?
Yeah, I really think that's what bugs me the most. I wonder if that's an option that can be removed and still keep the lists up.

I think that those are what lets you know wether or not there are unread posts in the subforms. White ones mean unread posts, grey ones mean no unread posts.

Exactly. I'm not sure there's another way it can be done.

I don't use the view new posts function, so I like seeing the subforums with the little white/gray page icons. The icons are the added value, without them I wouldn't care about seeing the subforums.

It definitely does look too cluttered, but I voted "great" nevertheless, because it is convenient.
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't use "new posts" either - so I voted great
For my part I like them a lot. I can get lost so easily in real life and here as well it gives me help.
Roland would have understood.
I always use the unread post link to browse the forum so the sub forums dont bother me either so i voted "yu....Meh"
So, earthlings..basically urm...end of the world...Here Come The Drums!

I definitely do not like the blue, though, which has nothing to do with the color scheme of the site (to my half-blind eye anyway).

i like it, the icons are a little icky but the links are so badass. and it shows off the contents of the forum a little more right there on the main page, lets random guests and new people see how much is here, that's sorta cool.
I'm not a fan of the visible sub-forums, imo, it is too cluttered.
I like seeing the sub-forums, but the icons are a little awkward with the brown background, especially the blue ones.
hear, hear!

Yeah, would there be a way to just color the link to the subforums? Or just take the little icons out? That would help.

All or nothing folks
I am researching the possibility of a drop down so folks can click that and view them.

<- hates dropdowns
<- hates blue icons
<- loves visible subforums!

Same here.

That's like saying I love the moon but hate the wind.
I'm not sure the issue with the little icons, they totally match the site as there are plenty of blues in the banner...
We'll keep taking comments but its this or nothing.
