    why not make the rs market for accounts more specific?
    make a topic for selling accounts
    and a topic for buying accounts

    sometimes ppl post "buy account xx" in the selling market
    why not make an extra topic for itß

    Can be dealt with later. This is about the big picture.

    Yes to all, but with the green portion:

    Remove the word "market" from all the subforums, I think it makes it look messy and hard to read. Simply having the game names would suffice since the user should already know they're in the market section. Secondly, I don't know if SWTOR or Diablo III have enough market activity for their own section. Lastly, steam deserves it's own subforum under "Other Game Markets" imo

    I said Yes, Yes, No. If market tools is a category, people are going to have to scroll really far to get to sections like OT and the spam forum.

    All joking put aside: SuF, I think you're the best thing to happen to this forum as far as the initiatives you're taking, and the heart you're pouring into legitimately helpful changes to the site. Your work will one day be publicly recognized, and though I know it's a negligible reason as to why you're doing any of this, I know you'll get the appreciation you want and deserve for the incredible work you're putting in. It will pay off when your activity-saving ideas are what solely save this site beyond the every-day maintenance the administrators preform, and the every-day work mods put in.

    HMU is SL or MSN if you want to discuss details, I'll elaborate on my ideas about the green section and see if you think they're plausible or helpful at all

    Also, I agree with FireZ, market tools is a really groundbreaking development to our market. I think it is the end-all solution as to where to put those types of threads

    I said Yes, Yes, No. Reason being is, I think everything that would fall under "Market Tools" should stick in it's current, respective categories.

    I don't particularly understand. Would they go under Games markets or Other markets?

    I agree with a majority of the modifications which outline a much clearer understanding of the market.

    I also suggest moving yellow above green as the tools are important to Runescape Markets, which is the biggest market, and will be used a lot more if they were there. Other markets are not as large, and would be less used and only recreate the current confusion.

    Sorry, I think I was a little tired when I posted that (and I didn't take in account of the redesign).

    What I mean, is that things like "market discussion" should be under each category. Ie, 'Runescape Market' would have it's own Market Discussion thread, same as 'WoW', 'Diablo 3'. It'd be too confusing to have to go to another section of the forum just for the discussion of something that's already in it's own forum. The same thing here applies to Price checks.

    Now as for the Middlemen, Vouches, and Report a Scammer threads, obviously they can't go under each Market category. So what I propose is a subsection under 'Our community' labelled "Community Tools", where the Middlemen, Vouches, and Report a Scammer threads can go under. They pretty much are, tools for the community.

    I must disagree since they aren't tools for the entire community. They are only for the market. That would also hide them which would make finding them much harder.

    I don't really understand this statement at all. If a member never uses the market and only uses the Community/Off-Topic/RuneScape sections (A little like myself) why would they need to use a Middleman or vouch for a completed trade or anything like that? I think they fit much better under the market.

    i personally think this shouldn't be polled. Use your common sense, do you think its necessary to split the subforums onto the homepage?

    We don't want to make a major change without getting our user's opinions first.
