Game Section Change [Forum]

 Well, as I'm sure most of you know, the
lovely board admins on the OGame fora
announced that the 'Game' area would be
reorganised to allow easier navigation and
to facilitate universe-relevant discussions.
 The decision to reorganise the forum came
after the administrators and staff felt that
many had become indifferent to the previous
system whereby forums were listed by subject
and not by universe.
 The new format was decided on by discussions
between staff members and user input.
 Cassandra_Vandales noted that: 

 "I know this breaks a kinda tradition. The old layout
though seems not to be liked anymore by quite a few
people and to provide a section where the Universe
communities can develop "their" universe stuff soun-
ded like a good idea."

[ . . . ] And now takes the form; "Universe 1
(main forum)

Subforums: HoF (Subsection: Top 10), Trades,
CR section, Diplomacy, Headhunts, Acc Trade,
Archive"

 To those thinking that this idea will make the
forum too long for a game with 30 universes and
do not wish to scroll for aeons in order to reach
the fora toward the bottom of the board, there is
an 'expand' and 'compress' button which can show
and hide the forums. It is the little white box next
to the 'Game' heading.

 (I'm aware of the seemingly interchangable use of
'forum', 'forums' and 'fora' all being used to describe
both the main board and individual sections. I shall
attempt to reach a concensus on the correct gram-
matical term.
 

New Ticket 'oSupport'

 In a drive to increase efficiency and effectiveness of
the ingame support system, a trial has begun in uni-
verses 1 -4.
 The system allows you to directly raise a problem
with a game operator without sending an e-mail,
and thus getting a usually faster reply.

 Here is a link to the system and the discussion and
help threads.
 Hopefully there'll be more on this soon from a reporter
in one of the aformentioned universes.
