I would like to hear what you people think we should do to improve this forum.

Lets try to stay constructive with our comments.

I think the guys should take an example of Bayern forum.
We've threads for each player, and news related to the player go to their thread.

That way the Prem forums would look much better, much organised. Some of the forums just look like a real mess.

In the Prem forums, every new news article gets a new thread.
Aswell, Match threads are gettings confusing, some don't update the result and so.

Not much I can do about that. If the english contingent like to have their forum look like crap, then that is there business. They all have the power to fix things.

I think player threads it's stupid.What people discuss in there often goes away off topic because there is not that interesting to talk about only one player...And who have interest to read what Oliver Kahn eats for dinner...?Or if he played 90 minutes yesterday...A thread about each player will do a hell lot of threads...I don't find that organised.And it's more easy on Italian and German section because only the same moderators makes the threads there.On the english forum there so many different people who makes them.That's a main cause why this don't and won't looked organized.

And sure, I can put a date stamp on game threads.

player threads are awful.

This is by the far the most organised forum I've ever been on...trying to tidy it up even further would be stupid as far as I'm concerned. More organised doesn't neccesarily mean better.

What makes a forum great is the quality of the posters, not whether the threads have a date stamp or how many different smileys there are.

To be honest, all the "player" threads is one of the reasons I rarely visit the German forum for example.

I don't know what could really be done to improve this forum, it is already very well organised. The only thing is that some discussions get splti up because (especially game threads) are started in multiple forums i.e. european matches...one gets started in the English clubs forum, one in the Italian clubs forum and then another in the CL forum.

How about having a forum simply for game threads? Then everyone can meet there to discuss matches?

Players threads are much better than having 5 threads for the same player in only one page.

Well it's not like the Premiership forum isn't doing well is it.

If you look at the Man Utd feedback thread in the United forum then most English fans will show u theyre not really in favour of the stickies or the player threads, so using lots of them doesnt make sense.

And we all look after our individual forums, shouldnt u be getting the mods u appointed to that section to sort it out if ur so annoyed with it?

You guys do a good job and u post a lot of news, but not all of it is important....

And ur catering for about 2 or 3 people, the Premiership forum has much more than that.

Date stamps ARE VERY important, as this stuff get archived, and if want to go back, its easy to do with the search function.

I like this idea.

I'm surprised at the aversion to player threads; I always took the concept for granted and never knew it was such a controversy. I think they're very convenient, as some players are often in the news/interviewed/etc. and you can then put it all in one place (unless it's such huge news that it really needs its own thread).

Personally it doesn't matter to me whether you guys want to organize your forum like that or not, I'm just intrigued that some people hate threads about individual players.

**Jager** · 07-05-2007, 03:44 AM

I personally don't get it.

What is the point of having ten different threads about Tavez?????

At least merge the damn topics.

**kennethlindheim** · 07-05-2007, 08:52 AM

I agree with the player threads. It's lame and boring imo.

**Mighty T.A.L.** · 07-05-2007, 09:27 AM

I wonder who started this 'player' thread thing.It's the most stupid idea on this forum.It's pathetic.95% of the posts in those threads are useless and not interesting.You can discuss individual players in the game threads.
