- Suggestion/Idea/Improvement Board
- Other Media Board (Movies, TV, Books, etc.)
- Political Board? (NO TTA)

Any more Ideas?

----EDIT----

Even though this thread is locked my proposition still stands.

Perhaps "Starter Up Projects" as there is often stuff that gets put in creative but isn't done yet - I don't know how desperately this is needed. Maybe something philosophical?

Suggestions ideas should go in the OneMoreBlock section, and Political stuff makes sense for OffTopic.

I don't see a ton of non-video game media being discussed in the OffTopic section atm, so I don't know how active a seperate section for it would be...

Alright, what about a payed user board where users are given free early access to the... Just kidding

It would be cool to see a "Collaboration" board for projects. Somewhere that the "One More Fighting Game" and "One More Block Sings" threads could go as they seems to get mixed in with the rest of the posts quite easily.

How about...*wait for this genius idea....*

A one more turn subforum. Y'know cos' it's OneMoreBlock? *crashes cymbals*
No seriously though, it could be for like epic memoirs from gaming experiences, I had civilization V in mind because it's a turn-based strategy but seriously it could be any game...

This would be cool. Wouldn't it be easier to create a conversation though?

I still don't understand what you guys are suggesting.

This is true, however it would be harder to gain new participators sense the conversations aren't as public. It is sort of a balance, the conversations has the benefit of all contacts getting notified for any new posts (Although I suppose watching a thread would do the same thing) and threads have the benefit of reaching a broader spectrum of users - including new ones or even guests.

RP Board?
We could, like phantomboy suggested, split the Creative Corner into 2 sections, one for completed projects and one for projects in progress.
I also had an idea for a board entirely for talking about other communities and sharing usernames.

I think the best way to do this would be to have some kind of "recruitment" thread for a project, and then add people to a conversation when they express an interest in helping.
But when you're trying to really get stuff done, do you really want everyone and anyone to be able to participate, even if they're not actually contributors?

So the question, do we need another section for these types of threads, or are they okay in Creative. Creative isn't an overly-active section, so right now, I don't think there are enough of these team-projects to warrant an additional section. I love the idea, I just don't think the volume is there.

Is this something people would be interested in? Again, it's a matter of volume. Right now, the one RP thread in off-topic only seems to have two active participators. Then again, one, giant thread is a lot harder to get into then if there were many separate threads in a dedicated section. How many of you would participate in something like this?

The goal is to not end up with inactive sections that are rarely used.
