Re: Too many forums?

  One suggestion.

   

  I like to pass a little time, not too much, wandering through the forums. A good place for tips etc.. I also think a lot of the poster on here are pretty sound people.

   

  However, I think this place is cluttered. There are two many forums. Sometimes threads that are similar, the meter, clubs, levels, legends etc. are on different forums.

  Also WGT Beta - what's with that. This game has been going for 2 years. It has been actively taking peoples money for a long time. What is Beta about it?

  I also think the Everything else is sorely underused. Perhaps because people are spending their time trawling different tforums for the same stuff.

  Perhaps a set up like this:

  WGT Official News - in a different area - doesn't need to be on the forums.

   

  Issues - sub forums for cheaters/technical problems

  Suggestions

  Players Tips

  Course Updates

  Tournaments

  Country Clubs

  Real Golf - Personal and Professional

  General Chit Chat - Non Golf

   

  8 forums.

   

  What do people think?

  Good suggestions PH,

  The problem with this is that all the organization in the world won't do one iota of good until there are people in charge of these forums that have the time to monitor, police, merge, and coordinate them. 

  If that were taking place right now, you would see a drastic improvement even with the current organizational structure.

  It's a dog eat dog world out ther...... errrrr, in here.

  True VHL 1 moderator no matter how good he or she might be can not handle such a monumental task.

  1 would put a good dent in it, if that person were scheduled around the busy times (weekends) and would be able to keep the majority of this under control. To get these forums organized and posts moved/merged/deleted would be quite the undertaking from the git-go, but I really think 1 person would be enough once that part is done... IF these forums were that persons sole focus and responsibility.
