Steven P. Administrators Posted May 7, 2008 Administrators Share Posted May 7, 2008 https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showforum=231 Enjoy. I moved the most recent threads back in there, separating Hums types of posts with RWI seems like a good idea and it was requested by the membership.

Coldgunner Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 good call, I thought the section was a little too generalised. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/635473-real-world-issues-makes-a-comeback/#findComment-589380830 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I am glad RWI is back, but "The Hum's Real World News"... How about this way? Real World News: >Real World Issues >The Daily Hum >Area 51 (It's a Conspiracy!) >Science Discussion & News Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/635473-real-world-issues-makes-a-comeback/#findComment-589380961 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osiris Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I second, endorse and submit Fresh's suggestion for consideration to the chair. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/635473-real-world-issues-makes-a-comeback/#findComment-589381011 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted May 7, 2008 Author Administrators Share Posted May 7, 2008 Why would I want to make "The Hum's Real World News" a sub forum as well? Before all the changes, it was already a parent forum.. those forums are news related and need to stay as such in that category. On topic and Off topic separated. Plus "The Daily Hum" is too confusing for new lurkers & members.

Rappy Veteran Posted May 7, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 7, 2008 As much as Hum posts interesting news I like the fact we can now have RWI in a separate section.

+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted May 7, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted May 7, 2008 A section should not be named after a member. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/635473-real-world-issues-makes-a-comeback/#findComment-589381249 Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincent Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 A section should not be named after a member. At least not a memberr who floods most sections of neowin with copy paste jobs.

Hum Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 As much as Hum posts interesting news I like the fact we can now have RWI in a separate section. I must agree ... mixing odd News and more serious debatable issues was very confusing. I was sure it would not last. And much thanks for the honor of 'The Hum's Real News'. ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/635473-real-world-issues-makes-a-comeback/#findComment-589381594 Share on other sites More sharing options...

On topic and Off topic separated.Plus "The Daily Hum" is too confusing for new lurkers & members. Huh? So the top forum name makes sense to new users? "The Hum's Real World News" ? I guess I am not following your logic...if one can not figure out what The Daily Hum is all about and it made no sense why was it ever approved in the first place.

Steven P. Administrators Posted May 8, 2008 Author Administrators Share Posted May 8, 2008 I dunno Fresh, I guess I am appealing to common sense and hoping that any new member looks around first before s/he posts, I am happy with the name of that forum it is unique to Neowin and short of dumbing everything down so a 5 year old can understand it I'm going to opt to leave as is. The forum index and structure has already been made a lot easier to browse with categories (names) finally living up to their proper sections, granted all the OT forum categories aren't bunched together but there is a reason for that, General Discussion was much more popular at the top (where it is now) but I don't think it's a good idea to move all the tech forums to the bottom either, so it's a trade off between sections. Plus the fact that forum titles are now on 2 lines, not 3 which makes browsing the index a lot quicker!
