Video Game Board/Sub-Board Organization

[Gordunk]

this came up at lunch today, in the Anime forum have a sub-board for anime-related video games, and then have the video games board be for general video games.

discuss

my opinion:
nah... video games is just video games. UNLESS you want to have an anime sub-board under the Video Games board (instead of the other way around).... i'd think that would work well...

For organizational purposes... it's be odd to have viedo game sub-boards scattered around >___> and if you you want to link something to another board (since it might fit in more than one category) , just put a post with a link... though basically things are sorted by what they predominantly are....

so if we put a sub-board for anime in the VIDEO GAMES board, then yes, i'd very much agree...

I agree that there should be a place for non-Japanese video games, but I think the sub-board in the Video Games board should be for non-Japanese Video Games... since Japanese video games would be more related to the club...

Or, we could make a non-Japanese Video Games sub-board in the General Board...

Or...
We could go to the VIDEO GAMES board and create Japanese and Non-Japanese sub-boards as well as any other sub-boards we may need.

Or, since this may not be specific enough as we have only one level of sub-boards to spare, we could have a video games sub-board in the Japanese board and that will be any games of Japanese origin and the Video Games board could be for non-Japanese games and any sub-categories under it.

Or of course we could have something on those lines. I would just hate to start seeing video game boards/threads start mixing into all our other categories... UNLESS: We have a video games sub-board under every board? and anything that doesn't fit goes into the general board?

Those are my three suggestions. Personally, I don't know which I like best... maybe #1 (jap/non-jap only in VGboard) or #3(all over the place)?
