(Suggestion) Forum Re-organisation

    First of all, we need to get rid of the Japanese names that the sections have. This is because many people will not understand what they mean and this brings in confusion. If clear and simple English is used then everyone will understand the purpose of a forum section.

    Next here is my suggestion of a forum layout (The numbers indicate the position of the forums) :-

    1> The SD Board

    1st - Announcements : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/announcements-news.30/
    2nd - Suggestions : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/guidelines-questions-and-suggestions.32/
    3rd - Welcome : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/yo.31/
    4th - Contests : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/competitions.149/

    2> The Tsukihiro Feature Board (Needs to be renamed) - This is fine the way it is. If anything I would suggest the cyclic voting system (Everybody votes on a pre-chosen list of Manga/Anime, the top three series with most votes get featured) to be implemented.

    3> The Akihbara Central Board (This needs to be renamed)

    1st - Anime/Manga Discussion : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/anime-manga-discussion.8/
    This board should have a two thread tag/Prefix/label system
    Anime or Manga Tag
    Series Name Tag
    A member if he wants to discuss a series which doesn't have a section makes a new thread in this section, puts either the Anime or Manga Tag and then the Series name tag. Add a search tag feature on the top where clicking on a Tag will take you to all the threads which have that tag.

    2nd - Second Tier Mangas (Needs some name to be thought of) : This board will have the manga sections which are not featured. At present, this section will have these forums :-
    Durara : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/durarara.133/
    Monogatari : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/monogatari-series.15/
    Shougeki No Soma : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/shokugeki-no-soma.93/
    One Piece : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/one-piece.106/

    3rd - Seasonal Anime Discussion : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/seasonal-anime-discussion.148/
    4th - Novels : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/novels.136/
    5th - Recommendations : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/recommendations.17/
    -Review sub Forum should be added here.

    4> The General Board

    1st - General Discussion : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/general-discussion.23/
    2nd - Chatroom Corner : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/chat.20/
    3rd - Games Discussion : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/games-discussion.22/
    4th - Sports : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/sports-arena.27/
    5th - Music : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/music-shack.24/
    6th - Movies : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/akihabara-theatre.28/
    7th - The Library : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/the-library.26/
    8th - Language Learning Board/Gakuen Corner (Needs Renaming)
    9th - SD Shop : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/konbini.137/

    Gakuen Corner
    Either scrap this entirely as I do not see it getting much demand or make it into a global language learning forum (Basically you can teach and learn any language here). If the second option is preferred, the section should go into "The General Board" in the 8th position.

    5> The Creative Board

    1st - GFX : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/gfx.36/
    2nd - Fan Art : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/fan-art.35/
    3rd - Writer's Desk : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/writers-desk.41/
    4th - Videos : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/video-hub.38/

    6> The Games Board

    Roleplay Forums
    Mafia Forum : http://www.sugoidesu.net/forums/mafia-rpg.108/
    Forum Games

    Afterthoughts :-
    One problem that people will mention is that with such a layout will increase the height of the forum a lot. This can be easily remedied with a Top To Bottom and Bottom To Top button. If possible, it can be coded to take you to a certain board on the main page.
    The best part of this format is easier Access > More Participation > More Activity

    Feel free to comment.

    >3> The Akihbara Central Board

    Should be:

    1) Anime Discussion w/ seasonal anime section probably inside it and more popular ones have a sticky
    2) Manga Discussion w/ some stickies
    3) Light Novel Discussion w/ some stickies
    4) Visual Novel Discussion w/ some stickies

    That's a better format than mine. On the topic of stickies, it can cause problems with discussion. It might lead to people not making new threads on a manga. The tag thread system is better.

    1> The SD Board : Name Suggestion - "SD Central"

    2> The Tsukihiro Feature Board : Name Suggestion - "SD's Featured Series"

    3> The Akihbara Central Board : Name Suggestion - "Manga Network"

    4> The General Board : Name Suggestion - "General Community Base"

    5> The Creative Board : Name Suggestion - "Creative Haven"

    6> The Games Board : Name Suggestion - "Forum Games !"

    By stickies I mean like, latest episode/chapter discussion and you take it down when the next one is out so it rotates.
