Make clan subforums public

Postby Blodir » 21 Jun 2016, 13:48

... and give each clan a private subforum.

With all the clan hype (or lack thereof) going on lately, I've been inspired to look at some old clan forums. Mainly Toribash: http://forum.toribash.com/forumdisplay.php?f=97

Discuss.

Supporting this but the hidden section of the clan forum needs to be unmoderated (or rather moderated by whoever clan assignes themselves).

I don't see the need for this. If there is any conversation which you seek to make public then why not put it in the general discussion area? The whole purpose of a clan sub forum is for it to be exclusive. I don't see the problem that this is trying to solve.

The "Clans" Forum is public but only members of a clan can create a Topic. I can change that if necessary. Each sub-Forum is hidden. I could also create a 2nd not hidden sub-Forum for each clan if you want this.

No.

I would like it if it was similar to Toribash forums which I linked in the OP (with the exception of not having dedicated clan recruitment/russian clans subforums)

Clans [public] (for general discussion about clans, rules, new clans which dont have forums yet etc.)
--- Empire [public] (clan roster, videos, info about clan, most of all clan discussion here)
--- --- e secrets [private] (any secret schemes that the clan might or might not have)

+ add some rules to getting a clan subforum like having 10+ active members or something like that
maybe some additional requirements for getting the private subforum (toribash has this)

One public thread for clans is enough, no? I would have no idea how to fill an own public forum on top on the private one.

I can think of a clan that could fill their own forum.
