Greetings all,
Many of our forums aren't as active as we'd all wish them to be, so lately we've been discussing combining forums. While I can't promise we can follow everybody's opinion or request on this matter, I think it's fair to ask you guys what you feel should be combined, and what shouldn't be combined. Here is some meat to get you started...
-We're talking about combining much of the "Gaming" forums, but not Forum Games.
-Possibly removing "Newcomers Forum" and putting that as a sticky instead.
-Combining Art/Programming into a creative forum.
-Bumping Tavern up to the top, general chat generally is.
Okay. Well, I mean, I don't see how popular media has a different "mindset" than than the Tavern because, you know, it's mostly general. I would give complete support if they were merged.

I'm 110% with them merging.

After all, Support Forum used to be called Support and Suggestions, and the News, Feedback, and Suggestions forum was created under the name Armor Games v3 for suggestions about AG3. But since AG3 is in progress, I think Support and Suggestions would work once again.

Frankly, you could make just as justifiable of an argument of Pop Media being in WEPR based on it being general because of the whole "World Events" aspect
There's a thread on page 1 of Popular Media that hasn't received a post in three weeks. Is that not a red flag?
Other than pang, I believe everyone here has agreed to the Tavern/Pop Media change, right?
If you could argue that, kudos to you. But you really can't.
The final blow to the argument against combining them, I believe.

It won't increase activity to either.
Hardly. It won't increase activity to either.
How would it increase activity? It combines them, now we have a forum drowning down the threads that are already getting little responses (from pop media)

Answering both with one answer..
Both the sections have the same people in them. There are maybe a small small handful of people in the Tavern (I'm talking like, 3-5) that don't post in popular media, from what I have seen.
So I fail to see how placing it in the Tavern will expose it to new people.
As to be more specific to Emily, the threads are currently not seeing much light, but stay on the front page because of lack of activity. Because of their lack of activity, instead of staying on a front page with a better chance to get activity again, they will be pushed back to further pages. And, of course, given the nature of forums, if a thread is in pages not the first it has a less chance at getting activity.
