Its always seemed a little strange having General Discussion and Off Topic as well as their descriptions.
How i see it is: General Discussion is for the discussion of battle tanks related things that doesnt fit into the 8 above forums. Off Topic seems identical. Typically Off Topic would be for anything not related to the main purpose or focus of the forum board yet Btanks related things are still found in here. They are pretty much the same, or blurry.
There isnt any section devoted to talking about this forum itself, except it would be in off topic (apprently 'not part of btanks' and the posts here dont count toward total posts - i could be wrong). Forum suggestions cant go into suggestions because it has nothing to do with the game.
Having too many forums is bad but having too many subforums is also bad.
I also dont really get the 'interactive' and 'community' sections. Community could refer to all the people who come to this forum and play btanks or it could just mean 'forum' but theres already a forum section.
"Anything related to the Community that doesn't belong in another forum." - sounds like he is referring to the btanks community. In which case it should be moved to the Battle tanks section. Same with "Interactive".
Im tired right now so its hard to think of the best way to solve this. It would have the be the most effective and simple method that requires minimal effort from the board admins (such as moving posts etc). Moving large amounts of certain posts can be more trouble than it is worth. I also understand that the admins are from Germany and may not speak english as a first language. Basically its a little confusing because this post should be in 'Forum stuff' in the "Forum Section".
