Board Thread:Suggestions/@comment-24651308-20161016202917

The mods page has become crowded, starting to become like the students page, so heres a new suggestion.

Don't allow any mods to be posted on the mods page, instead only allow people to make threads for their mods in the modding discussions board. So, for example someone makes a mod which adds in a rival. They go to the modding discussions board on the forums and makes a new thread for their mod. They'd title it something like, "Megami Mod by User (Json edit) (Name of build)". Adding tags to it would make it more descriptive.

I've thought up a couple pros and cons. If you have anymore please tell me and I can add them.

PROS

- The modding board will be more active

- It'll be easier for people to get in contact with creators of mods by just replying to their thread.

- If people state what build the mod is in the title, it'll be easier for users to find mods they can use.

- It'll allow people to add more information so they don't have to take up much space like they might on the modding page.

-People searching for certain types of mods will find it easier if people state the type of mod in the title.

-Linking to mods will be easier.

CONS

-The modding page is the most popular page on the wiki, used by people off the wiki. If they see the page is gone they may be put off. However, we could keep the page and put a link to the modding dicussionns board on the page.

-People looking for mods may be too lazy to search through all the threads.

-Moderating the threads may be harder, as mods will have to look at one thread at the time.

-Since you can speak directly to the creator of the mod, there could be issues of arguing.
