Dear GCDP Members, This is the feedback sticky!
if you see any issues with any happenings in the guild post it here, and it will be noted.


-subforums will be changed to
{room for change}

Main forum page
Any official threads will go here.
From fanthreads to Welcome threads.
To deem if things belong here they can be made in the appropriate sub-forum and then once a standing is established then it will be moved to the main page.
With notification of course.

Meet up's
Discuss, and plan meetups.
in an attempt to cut back on spur of the moment user-events.

Babble crate
Our version of the chatter box.
For anything in the middle.

Entertainment
Discuss interests, role plays, arts, media ect...

Recycle Bin
Past threads that have had their moment to shine.

Memorable Threads
A place for threads, that have caused a stir.
or events that went well.

Maybe check into the feedback subforum?

Or did it get lost in the teeming mass, too? User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

I figured I could get more feedback on on the main page.
I am planning to take some from there though; but thank you.

heart Dakki made the good point of cleaning up stickies.

heart I think that announcements should be consolidated or at least moved to the appropriate forum (some should be in a subforum).

ATTENTION: IF YOU HAVE BEEN DEMOTED READ THIS!!! (this should be moved to the recycling bin after a period of a few weeks)
Announcement: Announcement about announcements! (this should be moved to the recycling bin after a period of a few weeks)
Announcement: Rules (Read 'em and weep)
Announcement: PROTIPS 4 RUNNIN' A SUCCESSFUL GCD GUILD (should be removed or at least moved to the feedback forum)
Announcement: [ Poll ] GCD Badges (this should be moved to Gaia Gaia Party Planning Time! or somewhere like this since it should be more optional)
Announcement: [ Poll ] Welcome to the party! - READ FIRST - (this should be a better introduction thread and where rules can be included and as updates are made the latest revision date is in the title)

heart Each subforum should have posting rules as to what should be posted there.

heart Plus we should have the art forum to include all forms and not just art.

heart There are wayyyy too many subforums. We shouldn't need this many.

Gaia Gaia Party Planning Time! (this should be consolidated with Meetups)
Fun, fun fun! (Chat area) (this is good for CB type stuff)
Bawww time. (GCDP's Forum Feedback) (awesome)
Recycling Bin (should be only viewed by higher ups)
THE GCD ANON GIFT GIVING! (we all know as GCD users we need this) (do we need this forum? Can it be consolidated with the Quest threads forum? what is really the point of the subforum?)
The GCD's Quest Threads (should be consolidated with the above forum)
Ohay dere. ("hi" topics) (We have an introduction thread and really there's not much in there)
The Arcade (A media forum.) (Great way of keeping media stuff together)
Elections! (shouldn't this only seen by higher ups? Like have people pm their applications and then the higher ups can discuss it without worrying about others seeing it... plus this can be used as a crew forum where crew people discuss issues and such..thus rename it to something that reflects it as such )
Avatar Workshop (Everyone rules) (awesome)
Memorable Threads (awesome)
zOMG! (post your stats! - new poll for next meet up) (nice)
What's going on in the GCD? (these threads can easily go in the main forum)
Art (Giving, receiving, critiquing, advertising) (include all art not just drawn kind)
GCD Awards (Great)
Meetups (should be consolidated with party planning forum)

heart One of the subforums can be reused for RPs and let those who want to RP to find other people etc. or as a way of advertising threads and such etc

I agree we have way to many subforums. Some we don't even need, like the Ohay dere and What's going on in the GCD subforums. And I agree with making the art subforum more that just drawn art. Maybe I can join in too! (is crap at drawn art, but okay at photoshop graphics art)

Agreed on the amount of subforums.
We DESPERATELY need a set of rules in each subforum and the main forum. I HIGHLY suggest one of those rules state what type of thread should go on the main forum - that way we would know which topics to move from the main forum. =D

Why have a subforum for art? I think it can also be demolished.

there is a whole forum for Artists already on gaia.

Any art threads could go in the chat subforum too.

You deemed the Avatar and zOMG subforums unnecessary due to there being already forums for these on gaia, so therefore that must apply to the art forum too.

heart sweatdrop Uh bro.. those reasons.. Technically there are forums for everything this guild is about. However the subforums and main forum is with in mind that people talk about those subjects with other guild members and not the rest of Gaia. So it may be that people want to show off avatars, hold avatar contests, ask for tekteks with other guild members, the same applies with art as I wouldn't mind showing my art off here but I'm not confidant enough to show it on the forums..

heart First and foremost, please make Elections your private crew discussion forum. That way you and other crew, vice captains etc can discuss about what is deemed necessary or unnecessary.

heart So while you might deem certain forums unnecessary I feel hesitant of at least not allowing other crew weigh in with their discussion. I am not digging the whole I'm going to cut these forums. In the least I hope you've talked to other crew first.

heart We should keep the sub forum names, there's really no point to changing it. Or please in the very least make it democratic and have all crew people weigh in.

heart The feedback forum was created for feedback on guild stuff. So while it can suffice with a feedback thread, I figured I'd clarify that since feedback on guild issues wouldn't fit GCD. But one could say pm a guild mule (that someone can create) and that is then shared in the crew's quarters where they can talk it out. If need be then create a thread to get the input of the guild and then bin it if it's done.

heart I honestly have some problem with doing away with zOMG, avatar, and arcade. The arcade can help keep all the media threads in one place and it can allow people to discuss music a little more specifically then what a general chat forum can afford. a zOMG forum and avatar forum would allow people to talk about it with other guildies, and do stuff together apparent with zOMG meet ups and such..

I agree with practically everything Sheshira just posted. There are a lot of valuable points there.

There are subforums that we specifically want to discuss certain topics with other guild members... I'd like to keep them. They may not contain a lot of traffic, but this isn't a large guild, either.

I agree with all the suggestions,there are too many stickies in the main forum and a lot of useless subforums
PostPosted: Fri Aug 27, 2010 9:01 am


heart One last thing (I promise) I had a post edited in a gif thread anonymously and I have to say this: Yeah, how about no. If there is something worth editing then you should have the courtesy of going "Edited for blah reason - User" and the gif itself was not breaking TOS or any rule on Gaia..

So can I suggest that if a crew member doesn't like a picture or gif or a post, it's pretty crappy that they take it into their own hands to change the post especially when it is not breaking any rule. It might not have been to their taste but that should not matter at all. The only thing that they should hold any post to is whether or not it breaks TOS.

I like everything that's been listed in the thread so far. I agree we have lots of unneeded stickys and subforums.

I'm going to try and cut some stickies down. Especially the ones that aren't used and needed anymore.

I like the avatar subforum D:
I don't want to get strange people's ideas for an avatar, rather I'd prefer to get input from faces I know.

So basically your telling me to get rid of subforums and then add an equal amount.
Also The reason I am suggesting we cut to one standard chat area is because though it might be nice to have set area's where you can go and find the topics you want with ease.
There is no point there is really only a couple of threads that get any action and it just makes a forum full of dead topics.
Also The reason we dont really need a area for Crew is because there is so many people in positions of power and not many of them have actually proved they deserve any power, and there is alot of abuse of power going on and that needs to be worked on before we make anyone feel official.
