Improved Callouts Forum

More organization in the callouts forum.
I think there should be additional sub forums and maybe a mod for the callouts forum.

At the moment the callouts forum is a bit of a mess, this is because of the new opening of usergroups and the increase in clan challenges. The callouts forum is not being used enough for organization of games. I think we can change this by organizing the callouts forum into sub forums, my suggestion for the callout organizations is:
Callouts (Where games and RT’s are arranged)
Clan Recruitment (Where clans can recruit and people can look for a clan)
Clan Challenges (Where clan leagues, challenges and battles can take place)

I think this would make the forum less cluttered and make it more easily accessible.

Please post you suggestions and ideas here!

I like that a lot, it saves time from wading through a whole bunch of games to get to clan's callouts

I like the idea. We wouldn't need 2 forums for clan stuff. Just one for game callouts and one for clan callouts. Normally when there are clans challenging each other, they keep it to one thread. Same with recruits.

I still prefer the 2 forums for clans as if we have 15 clans recruting it could be confusing if you throw the clan bettles in with that...I could live with just the one tho...

There may be 15 clans, but they will not all have threads recruiting. Some clans like to actually be selective with who they have join with them.

I'd be more up for a simpler approach - if you divide up the forums, each one gets less traffic and thus fewer eyeballs.

If you keep recruit and callouts in one forum then people can see how active each clan is and what rivalries are going on before someone gets to joining a clan.

It also means that people IN clans who check on challenges will also be more likely to check on threads trying to GET people increasing communication between people in clans and waiting to get into clans - building communities better.

That is not going to make it happen any quicker.. maybe just make it to the bottom of his list and piss some people off. I am sure that he has seen it spin. Just because you bump it a few times.. does not make it a priority or even mean that he will do it.
