Someone said I should post my suggestion here. I did make a thread in the 'suggestions' forums so I'll just link you to the thread: http://sythe.org/showthread.php?t=1460426

As some other members said there should be a consoles section, and if not that the PS3 section should be made more visible and noticeable along with XBOX.

Thanks :)

I believe the PS3 market deserves to get a more visible position too.

In all honesty, you should put a Buying and Selling sub-sub-forums for the Pures and Skillers sub-forums and the Other Accounts sub-forums. It'll make it easier for those to find accounts for sale or for the accounts one is wishing it buy rather than having to scroll through a long list of a mix.

I agree with this too. It'll be much neater. Maybe have the link sending you straight to the selling forum though, but the subsection link to buying at the top. A little like the Report a Scammer section with the Ban Evader subsection

Looking good, except maybe move Report A Scammer under Market Tools, rather than generate a copy link. Also, I think this would be a good opportunity to move up the Graphics Marketplace to a higher exposed area in the Other Markets.

That'd make it quite hard for new members to find. And it'll take a couple more clicks to reach it :/ I like its current position. I agree with a link to the Graphics Marketplace.

I built mine off x339's. His design is great I just made a few tweaks. I've colored my changes

First off, I think having all the pures in one section will make it a bit difficult to find certain type of pures. For example: G Maulers, F2P pkers, Obby maulers, summoning tanks, and other pures will be found in the 3-75 category. In the 75+ category you'll find Zerker pures, Tanks, Hybrids, Turmoil pures, and others.

Secondly, If we clump all user services in one it'll be dominated by Account Upgrades. That's why I propose we separate that into it's own sub-forum within User Services.

Furthmore, the same goes for gold buying and selling. If we join those two sub-forums together it'll be far too cluttered especially if big company threads are often bumped. It doesn't give much room to be acknowledge by the normal trader. This way it opens up more room for opportunity to the individuals that just want to sell off some their gold

Finally, I have countless times gotten lost trying to find RUNESCAPE guides. They deserve to have their own section within the Runescape market away.

Just my 2 cents

I wasn't going to remove any of the sub forums. It was just too much to type and was fairly irrelevant for the general overall theme.
 
The runescape guide/ebook section should be moved back under the runescape section, it can be annoying to find, other than that I agree with maybe grouping more of the unpopular sections and expanding the popular ones.
 
I think steam deserves it's own category and forums...

Something like..

*Steam Gifts/Keys
*Accounts
-Low digit/League exp account (subsection)

I disagree, I like to have all the guides organized in one section, and trust me, I am in that section quite a bit.

I agree that we should at least try something like this, the Steam section seems to be fairly popular.

The market tools needs to include some kind of guide section for market related things (WU Guides, Anti-Scam guides, etc).

I don't know about this, maybe a thread can be made that covers all of this?

Doubt it would be all that active.

How would it not be? Lol. All of the market related threads are spread across every where and all random stickies. Most of which are out-dated.

Market tools is supposed to be assistance, no? That's what guides are.

I doubt a lot of guides would be submitted, is all. Regardless you do have some point there but this thread is more about the overall picture than details.

I don't think that the Xbox Market gets enough attention to separate it into 3 different subsections. Perhaps this would work better

->Xbox Accounts
->Xbox Live & Other/QUOTE]

I'd definitely like to see it in those 3 sections. They could at least temporarily split it into 3 sections and see how that turns out. Not sure why people always say no to that idea based upon the sections apparent lack of activity, when it gets some good traffic. There's nothing to lose by splitting it up.

Regardless if more would be submitted, we can just drag some from other sections and compile them into one big area. Alright, I don't think I have anything more to input about the market redesign at the moment.

A million times yes. The Steam Market has been one of the most active market sections I've seen, and it's been that way since at least 2009 when I joined.

The PSN Market does not nearly have enough activity for it's own section.

Just change it to Consoles and be done with it.

Even though I've only used the Xbox Market a few times, I know that it would be quite annoying to have all consoles in the same section.
