Thank you for your input. To be honest, I'm struggling a bit to comprehend what exactly you are saying, no due to the ability of not understanding English, but since it's the first time I'm actually messing around with a website, so I will do my best to make it as user-friendly as possible.Secondly, for the whole "how to divide the forums" question, to avoid chaos you need to choose a property of the scenes and divide by it. The current division is roughly by the scene's source (Film, Music Video, Other - a slightly random split) and then by explicitness level. The tags (prefixes?) should provide additional properties to search by.
When choosing you should avoid two pitfalls:
- Don't split by properties with too many options. For example, "scene source" can be film (short or not), tv, music video, stage (and art / vimeo), unscripted (paparazzi and sex tapes) - 5 options unless I missed something, and "Explicitness" can be unsimulated, graphic, non-explicit, gay - 4 options. This gives 5*4=20 forums, divided into 5 sections - I don't count the (extremely useful!) chat sections. It is a lot, but manageable.
- Don't make overlapping divisions. The above split has the distinct advantage of being, well, distinct. Assuming the trivial rule that if a movie has two scenes of different explicitness level the highest one determines the forum, any movie can belong to only one forum - a single scene cannot be both from a music video and a stage-show, and it cannot be both unsimulated (=explicit and visible) and non-explicit. However, a scene can be both "Asian" and "Explicit" making this division a poor one.
I still haven't touched those and you are right, they need to either be merged to existing threads and sections, or make them as distinctive as possible for a better experience.
- Isn't the Asian section a bit too... specific? Shouldn't it be removed and merged with the normal forums?
- What's the point of the unsorted forums? I think that the unsorted scenes forum should be removed (it's like deciding not to decide) and the unsorted full movies should be replaced with a "Full movie" tag.
- The "Not mainstream" forum is misleading. I often found myself wondering whether I should post there or in one of the other forums. Currently it's used for paparazzi mainly, but it'd been used for documentaries, artcore porn and more. I think that the paparazzi should have it's own forum under "Other" (maybe merge with "Famous Sex Tapes" or turn to a sub-forum?), "Documentary" should be a tag for the normal forums and "Artcore Porn" should be in it's own section and contain all the obviously-porn-but-still-interesting titles such as Glimpse, Erica Lust etc.
- Can there be more than one tag for a thread?
I will try my best to restructure it along the way and I appreciate all the help you guys provide!
