Title: Forum Layout

Howdy (http://www.ambrosia-servers.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png)

I would like to suggest going back to the old layout for admin applications.

I much prefer all admins apps in one place.

It is clear to see already people do not know how to use the current system.

I'm all for change for the better (and no offence to whoever rolled this out), but i think we took a step backwards here (http://www.ambrosia-servers.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/huh.png)

Agree, just use the old one with every server board, like dust2 only admin application board and so on (http://www.ambrosia-servers.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png), so it will be much organised :)

Well of course we can roll up them back again. And I don't have hard feelings (http://www.ambrosia-servers.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.png).. Well the main thing why I wanted these admin applications go like this, when we have so many servers and people are applying those. Admin board will be so full that it goes over 3 pages and someone's admin applications are no more seeing and they lost interest.

This goes off-topic almost..

But to be honest we are going instant too many servers which we have to deal. If we have like these 14 servers we need over 100 admins to be active.. I know all wants all but it is not just possible. You can't always get what you are wishing for.

If we had like 7-9 servers it would be in first place easier to control and develop servers. It is not just so easy to recruit admins and head admins to handle servers. As you might seeing in past of some admins loving banning periods. And when some of admins are hardly broken rules in servers.

DD2, Public, DM, JB, Surf, Zombie are the active ones we have in here. How about dealing them first, actually Public has been forgotten when people has ask support for lags or mapcycle. Just put four maps cycle: dd2, inferno, nuke, (train, mirage, westwood).. Ask Yoda to head admin.

My suggestion is that we would make another DM server because I know those get people playing in servers (dd2, inferno, train = 25 min maptime)

Well this is kind of pointless talking. When those has been well managed, can people wishes more other mods servers. I might offend someone but basic cs will get players in first place in community and they might try after that new mods if they are willing to learn them..And all don't know rules of servers in once..And mainly none ever reads rules before playing.

I have said my opinion more than once about these things, but couldn't care less no more.. Well managed servers will bring more people on forums, but let's face the truth if we are having those server numbers and when you are looking our forum visitors per day. It's quite impossible for now to control so many servers..

Ps. And so long Ipawn hangs around in our forums, I dont need my rights back.

I didn't read the long post my apologies but here's a suggestion
If the problem is 3 pages of admin applications how about creating:
a admin application section and in that section it should have several childboards...1 for each server
That way you can organise the apps and hopefully it won't be a mess to everyone :D

The solution for me, is to make for each server a own board, like general board for admin application, including every server admin application board :)

tbh i like the idea of what you did and i suggested it months ago when i went through the app's and separated them into each section. it's also easier for head admins to see who's applying for their server because sometimes people won't even put in the application what server they're applying for. i agree with mcain that the admin application board with child board would make more sense and be organised but still known by people on how to use it

Yeah go for that...I was wondering when this akka joined..He says it would be better if introduction board was up..We could change it first Gategory like this..

Welcome to Ambrosia
- Introduction
- Community  (people can make topics and put there nice pictures:D)
- Steam Group
- Donate

Can I ask is it very stupid idea (http://www.ambrosia-servers.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.png).. If we would make one Server board and add all servers with child boards..Still if I remember right those childboards pics will be shown in first page?.. Hard to tell when got now no rights :D

Why I want them like that.. To reduce our current boards seen in First page..

tbh i think the forum looks really good. Announcement - Servers - Introduction - Admin apply's - reports - staff.

Cant be better, though 10 childboard in the admin apply board with every server its own childboard would be perfect :)
