World Sub-forums in General Discussion

Having world sub-forums in general discussion.
Bad idea or good idea?
Discuss/vote.

edit: I made a mistake on the 2nd poll vote. It should be [b]Bad idea. We shouldn't have world-sub forums.[/b]

Until I see more activity and more efficient use of the server sub-forums (GMS, KMS, etc), I see no reason to have world sub-forums. For now, if you have a world-specific issue, just post it in those server forums INSTEAD of General Maple Story.

I agree with Malapo. It seems to me even the GMS section is superfluous as it is. It's almost only used for recruitments that belong in the listings and people seem to treat the General section as it and vice versa (if an EMSer posts an EMS thread in the General section people tell him to go back to his own section). The other version sections do have a purpose, but the GMS section...
Server sections would probably become the new GMS section- empty, dull and for things that belong in the listings. If they're combined with the listings like Eevee said that's fine, but otherwise I'll think they'll be a curse more than a blessing.

I'm neutral, leaning towards yes. Personally though I think we should then allow buying/trading/recruiting/etc. It would take a burden off B and accepting listings and people could communicate faster. However, it will be more of a pain in the ass and add more to the mod queue. I still vote more towards yes.

[quote=malapo]Too many servers to include (GMS, EMS, etc) and some are dead. What would you discuss in these sub-sections? We already have server specific auctions for buy/sell and the listings for guild recruitment etc.[/quote]

There are many other things that you can discuss other than auctions/recruitment.

Not really a point, due to the reasons malapo said. There's no enough discussion that can be focused on one world for them to require their own forums. Heck, dividing up each class into their specific jobs was already bad enough, I think

[quote=uiluj3]i think it would be cool and here's why[/quote]

i assume you're editing your post to put in the
"Broa, Gather here"
"Windia, gather here"
so on and so forth...?
