    What exactly do you prefer? Our forum structures are almost identical, except that we put Multiplayer sections with each game while TWC puts all multiplayer forums in a separate category.

    Right, but what exactly do you prefer? It's kind of hard for us to make changes if we don't know what changes to make.

    As I said, we already have nearly identical organization. TWC organizes their forums by game, with subheadings for Single Player and Modding. We organize our forums by game, with subheadings for Single Player, Multiplayer, Guides, and Modding. Are you getting confused by the names of the forums?

    Hi TinCow and original poster. @TinCow: Now I see what you have to deal with on these forums (= But I can tell you something relevant. What I prefer highly about these forums here (the Guild) over the TWC is exactly what you mentioned. At the TWC there is one large Multiplayer section, but here at the Guild we have an MP section for each game in the TW series. Hence when I make my monthly threads for tournaments for the RTW mod Europa Barbarorum, I simply make them in the RTW section (Campus Martius, what an appropriate name!), and they're easy to find for anyone (since Ludens the moderator made a nice link to them in the EB mod subforum).

    Are you posting simply to tell us this site sucks and you prefer TWC, or are planning on providing some constructive comments about what specifically we can improve?

    That just goes to show that in all likelihood, you probably don't have much to say on the issue (or more accurately, on this nonexistent issue). I've been using TWC since 2007 and the Guild since 2009, and I can assure you they are, at the end of the day, identical to me. It is clear as day for me that they are, for all practical purposes, identical. By this I mean more or less structurally. And you would only expect them to be this way due to the fact that we are dealing with a series of games, Total War. It seems almost natural to divide your forum into the individual games, and from there into SP, MP, Modding, and so on as you see appropriate.

    I see almost no difference between the structure of the .Org and the TWC but I agree we should all aspire to be more like the TWC

    I think he does not like the links in the blue coloured font, and probably the sidebar thingy.
    Or maybe he just wants a TW clone so that he feels more at home.
