Great, I like the forum better: Races, Classes, & Powers.
I was just thinking yesterday, WotC should probably combine the Magic Spells which are powers, with Fighter powers. In other words, combine classes with powers and feats.
To combine classes and races seems fine too, since racial traits are also in units of powers and feats.
The forum seems to move awefully fast.
Thoughts?
- Races
- Classes, Feats & Powers
- Treasure, Rewards, Rituals & Magic Items
- Monsters
- Rules
Why are powers and magic not together?
Incredibly good question.
I don't know.
I think that the forums should be divided like so:
- Races
- Classes, Feats & Powers
- Treasure, Rewards, Rituals & Magic Items
- Monsters
- Rules
I would go:
- Races, Classes, & Powers
- Feats, Rituals, & Magic
- Treasure, Rewards, & Items
- Monsters & Encounters
- Characters, Adventures & Campaigns
- Rules
- fo diggity
Races have powers associated with them, so I wanted to get those together.
Feat = Power lite
Magic is either spells (powers) or rituals (treasure), so seems not to need its own catagory.
Shouldnt Powers and Feats go together, since theyr the same thing?

Rituals are treasure?
Feats should probably go with powers, yes.
It seems that, if they really want a forum that contains everything that allows your character to do something, it would be the:
"Classes, Races, Powers, Feats, Rituals, and Magical Items" forum.
Fodigg: Rituals are treasure?
Apparently, rituals are treasure.
They remind me of the old tomes, like Manual of Dexterity and so on.
A ritual is a recipie that you get as treasure. The ritual has various components, that must be performed. Its sort of like a scroll that doesnt "vanish", after cast. Hopefully there are many different kinds of rituals, ranging from meditating under a banyan tree to mixing eye-of-newt in a cauldron. But basically, the ritual is valuable info that one can find and collect.
Brainstorming:
- Races (Traits, Powers, Feats, & Ability Score Generation)
- Classes (Features, Powers, Feats, Skills, Rituals, & Tiers)
- Economy (Treasure, Magic Items, Mundane Items, Services, & Rewards)
- Monsters & Immortals
- Campaigns (Cosmos, Setting, Arc, Adventures, Quests)
- Encounters (Rules for Combat & Social Encounters)
- Official Rulings & Errata
Anything missing?
Changed my mind. Combining Race & Classes into one forum creates way too much traffic.
Agreed!
Heres a list of various topics to consider when dividing up the forums. Each forum must get a reasonable amount of traffic.

That's pretty good.
[Edit: Changed my mind. Combining Race & Classes into one forum creates way too much traffic. Threads fall off the page before people even see it.]
Actually I'm curious to see how much that specific facet of the change can cut down on the ludicrous dragonboobs threads.
If you don't post there, your concerns won't be read.

Is that a challenge? ;) :P
In [post=15920836]this post[/post] and [post=15922497]this post[/post], Gamer_Zer0 set forth the criteria that Community Management is likely to use when determining whether a forum needs ot be merged or split. In essence, they will be looking at the number of active threads/day on a weekly basis in each forum. An "active thread" is a thread that has received at least one reply in the last 24 hours.
Take this as you will, but my advice?
Post! For the love of Bahamut, post!
-edit-
But whatever in the Nine Hells you do, do NOT spam!
Iv avoided posting in this forum because its too busy.
Don't you see? If you contribute to the busyness, then the forums will eventually split!
