Forum Merging Part II

Okay, in couple of days I will start merging sections and moving things around. The idea is to remove old forums that don't really have much content and then accomodate them in other forums.
I am willing to add prefixes and extended descriptions but it's something that needs to be done any way.
Discuss and suggest.
Changes can be reversible.
I am off to bed.

The subform is slow as is and while certain aspects of parapsychology do fit within the Science form loosely I think that mixing the two subjects might increase activity as people who frequent the religious aspects get a taste of the supernatural and vice versa.
Besides, anyone who believes in a bush in flames talking to someone has certain similarities with someone who believes in UFOs :P
Just an idea.
Sounds like a plan.
The idea is to hide all other forums and then add prefixes to them and start moving them or just add a post and mention from which section it was taken.
I am mgoing to Merge all sub-forums of T&T into one big T&T Forum. Add Prefix for Mac, Linux, Windows and get it done.
Same thing will happen with other section. Flesh Design will go out for now and will be merged with Flesh Arts.
I am downsizing right now. We will expand once things pick up.

but there's probably a good reason why it's not.
A good compromise would be to to add a redirect link, such as:
http://totse.info/bbs/new/ or http://totse.info/new/
that will take you to the above mentioned 'getnew' page.
This is convenient for mobiles.
EDIT: What the fuck? you deleted the *nix forum? That was a great forum. It had plenty more traffic than Network (in)Security.
EDIT2: eh. It's probably not too bad an idea.

Currently revising everything. Security Section would be merged and Description would get changed.
Basically, we're moving ahead. Time to flex our wings and make this place a bit unique. Since most of the forum decriptions are outdated and don't cover everything. It's best we update things and merge section with low activity.
I was planning to send mods a PM but I thought I should set an example and see what happens before telling everyone to start doing this and that. I admit it wasn't a pleasant job adding prefixes manually in three forums but it can be done.
Next up Circuit and Radio Forum.
Again feel free to suggest things.
The New Page trick doesn't work since users have to logged into use it.
I didn't delete the section. Just hid them. They can't be seen by members nor posted in.
Merging these two IMO isn't such a good idea as they are two different topics, they would be better being left separate as they are now.
Not merging at the moment. Just analyzing.
