I don’t know why there are many people on here who think that when a post gets moved to the appropriate sub forum that the post is suddenly killed.

If you do think that, are you aware that the tab “recent discussions”, shows posts from al sub forums? Cuz, to me it’s still just as alive as the rest.

Those other sections don't get near the same foot traffic and threads from nearly a month ago still being on first page are what fuel those statements

But really, everyone should just be looking at recent discussions, unless you’re specifically looking for strategy, or something off topic like general discussion.

Those other sections will get less foot traffic. That’s how splitting things up works. But if you want to see everything, go to recent discussions.

And as leef pointed out, sift through the Many guild recruitment, which also start off trying in general discussion a lot of the time anyways

unfortunately you´ll get a ton of recruiment posts to sift through when using "recent discussions"

Which isn’t that bad since quite a few of them have rather creative and original names that entertain me. Or at least more entertaining than the 5000th post complaining about GW.

The changes are killing the activity on this forum. I like the old way better.

Because most people don't look at the sub forums

Don’t over-react, it’s fine. Just go to other parts of the board. Your life isn’t that hard.

Neither do I lol. I look at recent discussions. What do you look at?

I would upvote this...but that was killed too. :'(

In an effort to make it "easier to find" things, they've made it virtually impossible for people to get answers to questions. "Recent discussions" doesn't help either, as half of it is guild recruitment stuff.

You (and Leef) point out the problem. Recent discussions does no good when most of it is guild recruitment stuff. It worked far better when new questions/problems/etc. were left in general and the guild recruitment stuff was moved. Now everything gets moved and even those of us who want help, don't see half the questions, as we don't want to go through every single subforum.

It's almost as if they are trying to make the forums as useless as possible. Reddit is looking better by the day.

Well, yeah, I wouldn’t mind guild recruitment not being a part of recent discussions, as that is an advertisement and not a discussion.

Upvote was great too. They never gave a reason as to why they took that away.
