Author Topic: Suggestion for Blockland Forum: Introduction Board  (Read 448 times)

Most forum's have introduction forums. We don't want people calling newbies calling people a bitch or cigarette or all that stuff. So we give newbies time to introduce themselves. And after their account has been activated, they get directed automaticly to the Introduction Board. Good idea?

Yeah it would clean up General Discussion.

A separate board? It could be a forum in the Off Topic board though, rather than being in General Discussion

You're thinking of categories.

Board = Forum
Category = Category and just Category

These are definite meanings as told by SMF and not just vocabulary created by the community.

Edit: And topic is just topic, not thread or anything.
