The forum structure is terrific. I think it is worth adding valued legacy content in a way that flags it as 'old BSN' content - though I'm not sure how that would work exactly.
I'd make the observation that not all threads on 'old BSN' are worth archiving :-)

I think the Bioware logo at the top needs to go. It looks too official and I definitely don't want to see any suit turning up and giving you grief about it. I think you should have a conglomerate of franchise logos. Mass Effect, Dragon Age and some of the other games serviced here.
Better yet, use SYMBOLS! A mass relay and a dragon! Gifs would be really cool.
I'm looking at which Fan Creation threads should be replicated here. Certainly that mega mod thread for starters.

Maybe having a new header-image (fanmade, even), combining some elements from both Mass Effect, Dragon Age and such. Not a lot, 'cause sometimes simple is enough to really get the purpose of it. I don't know, just my opinion xD

I have to agree with the others on the header swap. And I prolly just haven't found it yet but is there a way to follow a topic? And lastly, will there be a separate thread for ME3MP or is it just intermingled with the current ME3?

I think there is a good case for separate multiplayer forums for ME3, MEA and DAI as the player focus can be quite different.
Oh, and while we're about it, may I recommend below the Dragon Age forum, a:
'New IP forum'

Multi-quoting is a mess. Those quote boxes don't go away and it's virtually impossible to delete them.

Can we change the text font plz? It's a little too cuddly & pretty for us. The ME font is da bomb.
Also, I think it would be a good idea to reduce the number of separate sections on the front page. We could have a Mass Effect section (with subsections for ME1, 2, 3 and Andromeda - Lore discussion & Modding/Help), a Dragon Age section (and subs for DAO, II, Inquisition and whatever else you want), Legacy games and the OffTopic section can cover non-BW games and all other non-gaming topics.
As it is right now, there's too many blocky sections at the front.

I agree for the font, I need more Arial XD and also I'm wondering if that wouldn't be better to put the MEA section on top, before the Mass Effect 1 section, what do you think ? Also will you add more wallpapers/backgrounds for the forum ? not something urgent, just it would be nice to have more in the future (what size are those images ? I want to try to create some)

Is it possible to connect our ME3 coop profiles to this board just like they do on the old BSN?
