Cramped Forum

[Karlotta]

the game is great but this forum...

maybe it's just me but I find it so cramped with info spread all over... for a newbie like myself it's so hard to navigate and find what I'm after with same topics spread in different places ...
just spent half an hour looking for the post I made to join a faction - to no avail.

why not have for instance all faction related stuff under one roof, tech under one roof, game identity / rules under one roof, etc, etc...

as it stands list of factions are in several places, factions recruitment another, rp another... doesn't it make more sense to have ALL pertaining to a specific faction in one place under the same roof?
this way in one glance people can see how active the faction is, their ships, bases, RP, members, etc...

and in a more global way with one single glance see how many factions there are.

The point of horrible forum layout has been raised by multiple people over the years on the forum as well as ingame. Months ago I suggested (not for the first time) a tiny basic no-brainer cleanup (which would have been a small but easy step in the right direction https://discoverygc.com/forums/showthrea...pid1935905) to get things a little easier to find. But even that was too much to ask, apparently. Making the categories more logical and less numerous would also be necessary but that would require a certain amount of work.

It seems mods and devs just dont care enough to do anything because they personally already know the whole forum by heart anyway, and they're menatlly unable to put themselves into the shoes of someone who doesnt. Either that or there's some mysterious and secret reason why it's absolutely impossible to follow even the most basic rules of not-totally-stupid layout on the forum, which they wont share. Or there is just no-one that feels responsible for it, and no-one that feels responsible for making someone responsible.

Meanwhile, while we wait a few more years for someone to do something about the horrible forum layout (it took 2 years to link the server rules on the first page instead of making people click through 3 pages with 30+ links each to find them), we can use the search function in the hope of finding anything.
