    Move the Spam Forum

    Personally, I rarely post in the Spam Forum, however I view it daily and must admit, it more then often produces some exciting material.

    However, the 'Spam Forum' should be viewed as the least important sub forum on Sythe. By this i mean; The other sub forums after the Spam Forum seem to be neglected, inactive or rarely posted it. It could be due to the fact the the veteran members of this site mainly tend to the Spam Forum, and don't scroll any further, hence nullifying the other sections. Or simply due to other reasons.

    I personally view the Scar/Simba, Programming, Other Games, Xbox Market, Graphics and Guides & Support Centre and their respective subsections to hold more discussion value and compared to the spam forum.

    What I'm trying to say is, no matter how much people love the spam forum, the other more useful and valuable sections that can help increase activity should be placed before it.

    In simple terms, the spam forum is basically a place for trash talking and the odd comical aspect. It doesn't really seem viable to me to have a forum dedicated to that before other constructive sections (not saying its a bad section, as I enjoy it as much as the next person).

    I'm suggesting to move the Spam Forum just before the Report a Scammer section.

    I disagree, I think it's fine where it is to be honest. Plus it is Off-Topic so it fits in perfectly in the Off-Topic Forum.

    Move the Spam Forum

    Are you suggesting moving the whole off-topic forum? Because moving just the spam forum wouldn't do anything you listed.

    The Off-Topic section is fine where it is, if people wanted to post on the sections below it, they would. They don't, however, which is why those sections are lacking in activity.

    So, no support.

    No, just the spam forum (@syed).

    I'm not really wording want i want to say correctly.

    In simple terms, the spam forum is basically a place for trash talking and the odd comical aspect. It doesn't really seem viable to me to have a forum dedicated to that before other constructive sections.

    I personally enjoy reading topics within the spam forum, not saying its bad.

    The spam forum is part of off-topic therefore moving it, and making it seperate, would make no sense.

    Other than the Market the spam forum is the most active section of the site. And some people stay just because of it. I don't see how moving it to a less noticeable location would help the site.

    Not to mention it would confused a good bit of people in the unnecessary movement. The Off-Topic section is in a good spot and the entire forum is not meant for "Which is the most popular area", and to back this up we have report a scammer at the bottom.
    No support :/

    spam forum is more active than any of those forums you listed. and do you honestly believe the "veteran" members don't know how to scroll down and have never seen the sections below Off-Topic? not sure if trolling or just retarded

    lame suggestion is lame.

    It's positioning is perfect. Generally, if someone wants to post in the Simba and Scar forums, or any of the ones below Off-Topic, they won't mind the extra half a second it takes to scroll down there.
