Animation Source Forums

If you think about it it's a little messy. There is also the same questions being asked over and over again, regardless how many times a mod says to" use the search bar". I know exactly what that's like, it's VERY frustrating... I was thinking that maybe it's the way it's setup. Perhaps it would help if the questions page worked a bit differently. I know that the questions are already in categories, but here's the thing, they don't work that well. Some people don't even bother to change to their area they need help in, so you may have a question on characters in the default categories. Or sometimes the person will just write "PLEASE HELP!" If that were to be a question on characters, how on earth would anyone be able to find the answer? Not very well.

So I think it would work a bit better if the questions page was broken down a bit. The main questions page would consist of categories to click on. Within each you would be able to ask your question and make a search in that category.

So, what do you think?

Well, seeing as the "trolling" has basically stopped, most of the questions now are both legit and new...something that I think we all have been waiting for for a long time.

Good idea, though.

I would just like to say though, Guests should be able to post questions, but perhaps they should fall under the "Guest questions" category?

Personally I think the questions section is active enough to have to go through moderators like the other sections. It would also allow guests to send them. And if any trolls send any, we could just delete them so they don't show up on the site.

We have so many repeat questions, or titles to questions that are unhelpful if someone was looking up help, I think it would be better.

This is a very good idea. The questions page does need a little organizing, and I despise those, "HELP ME!!!" title questions.

What I would also like to see maybe some time in the future is a section called, "What NOT to ask!" I know that may be in the question rules in that particular section of the site, but I'm not sure if that's noticeable enough for people to see and click. And obviously some are not reading the rules because of the contents of their questions. And all I see on the AS questions section is. "Will a "_________" source be made, I wanna knowwwwww!!" It annoys me very much. I'm sorry if this is coming out as a rant. Just a suggestion
