"The Games Forum" needs a separate subforum for non specific games.

Could we perhaps have a poll about the default font? Personally I'd prefer something like arial rounded to Times NR.

I like the logo but I think adding the adding the word "New" would be cool plus it be the NU BSN which would be cool. But that is just me.
3 quick things:
1) Please put moderators names in the forums that they are mods in, look I know this a pain, but trust me nothing is more annoying for both mods and posters for example have a mod in DA forum and there is trouble in ME forums and s/he can't do anything about it.
2) I think there should be a mod only forum where mods can discuss issues like bannings and controversial posts and threads in private, without having to PM the others and let others know if they going to be away, we can recommend people to be mods and admins (should the need arise), maybe even plan events or contests and work out the logistics, and so on.
3) I think it might be better to merge each of the current 3 different Mass Effect character and romance discussions into one forum. I think it's confusing and kind of redundant to have 3 threads about Liara, Garrus, and Tali in 3 different forums for example, maybe combining them in a Mass Effect Trilogy character discussion and romance forum and create a sub-forum for ME:A when the characters are announced and/or when it comes out since it's supposed to have all-new characters. Maybe do the same with Dragon Age series.

It would be nice to have Origin on there along with PSN and XBL spaces for our names.
Also, having the user titles in a much larger font than the usernames is a little strange and doesn't look quite right imo.

Is it possible to connect our ME3 coop profiles to this board just like they do on the old BSN? What do you mean by 'connect them' SS? Can you link me to BSN how that works please?

Oh, is there a way to show links on notifications of liked posts so that you can see what post it's talking about? It strikes me as weird that it only shows you the thread.
And since I forgot to say before: agreed on the default font. A basic sans serif would be nice. Lot of Times New Roman shenanigans going on here; makes me feel like a filthy yuppie.

I mean somethin like that: 1. You go to yer 'My Settings' page on BSN and add your DAO or DA2 or ME3 game profile: 2. And then you get a nice link to yer DAO, DA2 or ME3 game profile so everyone can click on it to see what an awesome player you are:

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 was going to suggest this once I got the chance to xD I feel like it would be more simple and organized, like RemixGeneralAetius suggested. My idea would be something like this: - Mass Effect (section) = ME1, ME2, ME3, ME Andromeda, ME Franchise, N7 HQ - Dragon Age (section) = DA Origins, DA2, DA Inquisition, DA Keep, DA Franchise - Bioware (section) = Legacy Games, Merchandise, Off-Topic

For the font, please at least allow the option of choosing a sans serif font. The current font hurts my eyes!

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) the default font was arial lol i'll change it right now Is it possible to connect our ME3 coop profiles to this board just like they do on the old BSN? i'm not sure, but that feature doesn't exist. i have no idea how to make that work.. but i can try.

Also, having the user titles in a much larger font than the usernames is a little strange and doesn't look quite right imo. you mean forum titles like Forum Mod and Forum Member? they're actually transparent logos made by me to replace the text titles that was here originally. it helps tell people who they are as an group, like staff.

I'd love a page like the "My content" page on the official BSN where I can see the list of threads I've posted in to quickly see which of them have new, unread posts. Right now all I found was a list of my posts and threads I've started.
I'd also recommend taking most of that information off the avatar when you post. That's fine to put in the profile but putting all that under the avatar for each post expands the size of a post box, the body of which will end of being mostly blank space. I don't even understand why some of that stuff is there at all, let alone why I'd need to know it every post.
Edit: I just noticed the "participated" button in the upper right. That's pretty close to what I want. It lists where I've posted and if there are new posts. The only thing I still want is the button to take me right to the first post I haven't read yet.

But there are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many forums here for the number of people that you have. Needs to be like maybe two, ME Fans and DA fans. Maybe once you grow a little bit you can seperate them out a bit, but you can sticky all relevant posts (like ME Multiplayer and ME1 Discussions, ME2 Discussions, etc).

Agreed. Too few and too spread out. Grow as is required.
