Forum:Forum pages

What do you think of enabling the new forum format? I see it's used on the Avatar wiki, for example, and I think it looks better. Plus, it allows admins to "highlight" forum threads so that all community members are notified about them. The transition seems to be similar to that of Talk Page to Message Wall. 17:37, July 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * My biggest issue with transition is that we lose all the formatting that we can do with the current forums. I see it as reducing normal pages to that of message walls. I am against it, and all of the forums do not need extra recognition because myself and others will spread the message. Tuckyd!


 * The site is growing and you and others won't be able to spread the message to everyone all the time. I know you lose some formatting options, but you can still format things.


 * I am for it because no one ever reads the forum posts. I have put so many things in there that no one replies to. I think having the simpler format will encourage people to use it more often as well. There are forums that have not been used in over a year.


 * If, in the end, we keep the old forums, I am going to ask about the "highlighting" option. 17:37, July 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * It does look better. But I don't know how our infobox replacement and things like that would work, so I never brought it up... User:YazzyDream


 * Hm... Interesting point. We might need to create something special for infobox replacement... Perhaps a subpage off a userpage? Or its own forum... each thread is for one infobox. 17:37, July 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * A thread for each infobox sounds like a hassle. But we can make a project page. Like: Gravity Falls Wiki:Infobox Image Replacements. We just have to move the forum thread we have to the "Gravity Falls Wiki" namespace. User:YazzyDream
