Account sections by account types.

So the currect account section in runescape is divided in 2 sections:
Pures and skillers
Other accounts
and 3 subsections for each
low: 3-59
medium: 60-99
high: 100-138
As you may be aware.

What I do not like about the current system:
The main reason is that it is way more organized to arrange the accounts for what any buyer would be looking for, in clear words, buyers want to buy accounts by purestypes not by levels.
Another reason is that it is very impractical to have 3 sections under the same name.
A third reason would be that the arbitrariness the current system has brings up problems like how hard it is for users to find out where they should put they're accounts, although it is clear in what subsection to place it (levels) it is sometimes unclear what section to place it in (wether to place it as pure or other account) you can note this by checking the 100-138 pures section locked threads and the suggestion to remove said forum.
Other than the section 100-138 having little traffic because pures usually are lvl 3-99 (only traffic there are zerkers and turmoil pures), the 3-59 section has no traffic on main combat accounts either, the traffic there is from miscellania accounts.
The fix to this would be dividing others accounts to "100-138" "3-99" or "100+" and "100-" and an "other accounts" ( for this the name of the section must be changed.

What I do like and would like to keep about the current system:
Usually the reasons to divide a forum into smaller subsections is to avoid having an oversized section with mixed interests. An example of this would be the gold section, It is reasonable to divide the section into buying and selling section since both are almost equally volumed and even after the division there is still a lot of activity.
The current section acomplishes this to a certain degree. So no matter what to change it to, avoiding too small and too large subsections should be mantained as a priority.

What (exactly) I want to be changed:
I don't know EXACTLY what would be the bast way to arrange the sections, one thing is for sure. Instead of dividing by levels, divide the accounts by type.
That's the only thing that I know would be good for the account selling organization.
Variables:
1) Mantain 2 Main sections ( Pures , others) OR Have just one main section called "account trading"
2) Divide subsections into accounts defined by their defence. OR divide subsections by their specific names ( Mauler, Hybrid, Staker).
3) Naming of the sections and the legend under tha name.

So I have made something in a rush just to see how it looked like.
Note: Before clicking the picture, this is just a possibility and it is far from what I feel would be pragmatic.

After finishing the picture I noticed naming sections after in game terms such as mauler is not something we want to do, let alone the fact that a mauler section makes no sense. The titles for the subsection should as simple as the current ones. The legends below should have aclarations for what types of account belong.
So basically take a look at the picture, look for section titles where it names something in game specific, that's wrong, that should go on the legend.


The actual format
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are 2 things to decide
The division of accounts: What account belongs to each section, for this the objective is to give an equal amount of activity, not too much, not too little.
The naming and formatting of the sections: How to name (and what to put below the titles) and make each section have something in common. The objective of this should be; avoiding confusion, avoiding in game terms, making it clear to users where to post or look for certain threads and simplicity ( this perhaps the most difficult task) .

For the sakes of having a solid suggestion I suggest the following format.
as for the labeling of the sections, I will be adding provisional names based on the definition.

*Too specific don't think it will get many activity
**Too much activity
Additional info: I believe the non-pure section works well right now, the only problem there is itself, it is an "other" section while it is one of the main sections of sythe.
Problems with this structure: I think it is pretty good overall.
1)Can't seem to divide the first section and it will get a lot of activity, dividing into high and low doesn't seem like a bad idea.
2) Although the structure is ok it will be hard to find good naming of the sections and it probably won't be as simple as i'd like.

Naming of the sections

P.S. After seeing my own format I have done my own auto-critique and realized it is too complicated, So I will be looking to not have many sections and they won't be named after the pure type.

Post if you support (or don't). If you do , please post some suggestions.
Also, how is my english?

 

No main sections should be added.

However a sub-section for mauler, hybrid and staker could be useful.

I will remain neutral.

 

what do you mean by no main section should be added?
That both sections should not be merged?
Bah, I'll just go ahead and post what I had in mind

 

I refer to main section as Gold Exchange, sub-section such as Buying and Selling.

 

We're discussing a way to rework this in the staff lounge. Suggestions like yours and superman's let us know there is a problem, but we need to weigh the solutions before committing to a change.

I definitely agree that the system we have now is pretty poor.
