  1. Cash Battles *NEW*
  2. Crew Battles
  3. Live Battles
  4. Battle Lounge (Text, Topical Video, Audio, GFX/Beats)
• LetsBeef.com Hall of Fame
  1. LetsBeef.com Hall of Fame
  2. Official Letsbeef Statistics
• Support (Help/Bugs, Ideas, Complaints get deleted and fall under one Support board)
• General Information
  1. LetsBeef.com Site Information Guide
  2. [empty]

Got rid of a good 10+ unnecessary forums ...there's no need for the Support Section to have 3 dedicated sub forums...the site is way too inactive to have a forum dedicated to Bugs, another for Complaints, etc.

As far as LetsBeef Happenings...everything should fall under there. LB Radio is gonna have its own forum? Really? Contests too? MAYBE the Tournament should have its own but I did away with it anyway because all that shit falls under 'happenings' lol

no need for a dedicated Graphics, Topical, Video, & Beats section. throw all them shits under the Battle Lounge

You could even shrink the General Talk board too by getting rid of the Music Lounge. I like the Introduction forum though because its a good way 2 break ice if you're new so I left it alone.

I like @Student 's idea of the sub forum in a few areas. A Completed Cash Battle & Completed Crew Battle sub forum would be a perfect example

actually making Crew, Cash, & Live Battles a sub-forum of Battle Discussion would be better than having standalone boards for them. & then the Battle Lounge for everything else.

what ya'll think? @NOBLE @Mindless

I like most of your ideas @OSKAR minus the Audio Tourney Schedule and Text Tourney Schedule boards. I'd just put that under the LetsBeef Happenings as a sub forum or something. or under LB News & Updates board.

Don't like the Live Events having a subforum for every location. Add a new board after every event? I think a thread would be enough

And idk if 'About LB' is a good name for that first board. But everything else is on the money

diggin that Black Market board too.

I think you presented the best reformatting of the forums so far that shit look clean af... @Pugz @NOBLE @Student @Mindless @Babylon @Punk

I mean, u could arguetheres too many subforums in your reformatting but aside from that its definitely the best presentation i've seen

Ye maybe change the About LB to Letsbeef Happenings (as we currently have it) and add another forum under 'Announcements' and call it 'Tournament Schedule'..Or maybe merge the Tournament Schedule in the announcements?

I was thinking the News & Updates section would cover everything. agree with calling it Letsbeef Happenings n leavin it at that

contests, tourney schedules, rule changes, LB magazine, etc etc would fall under that 1 board instead of having dedicated boards or sub forums

Agreed ^^^^ like the look of @OSKAR and @Godbody combined ....

Looking fresh shit needs a reboot ASAP

I'd personally Like the Live Events to have a sub forum for each location. I mean, if you ever wanna go back and check a battle out you can just easily access it as sub forums imo are an organised way of displaying content. It'll also show new users that the site is constantly doing shit so maybe we'll get more of our guests to register? I dunno.

Three sub forums per page isn't that bad. I mean dividing up the HOF & FVC in their respective sections is much more organised and saves space. Other than that I agree that the Tournament Schedule should stand out more.

Crew, Topical and Video Battles don't direct to much traffic so we should stick em all together...(Plus i came up with a creative name for the forum...i mean C.C.T.V?! BARS)

The thing is having a sub forum for each location is gonna create clutter all over again. It'd only make sense if LB had live events like monthly or some shit like KOTD & that place was revisited a few times. Imagine there's a 1 time event somewhere in Colorado. We gonna make a sub forum just for that Colorado event? An entire forum dedicated to an event that happened one time? An entire forum for 6 battles?

Wouldn't it make more sense to have a sticky/pinned thread

"LB Colorado __(event name)__"
"LB New York __(event name)__"

imo it'd only make sense to have sub boards for each location if they were constantly revisited & LB was really active in that live battling scene. like if LB had 3 events each in NY/Cali it'd make sense to make a board for them

I get what you're saying. So far we are doing 1 event per four months which is not bad, considering this is our first year doing it. It's clear that Live Events are Pugz focal point so this forum's intended to be an archive of all events. Treat this like our gallery page

Anyway if y'all don't like it we can replace the idea. I'm sure what I've put out so far is not the final format.

Also @Student I don't think LB Radio needs to have a forum. We can easily stick the latest episode on top of the forum page (like we did in the past) and anyone who wants to listen to previous episodes can just click on the player to view the list
