Here are my ideas for new forums!


Palaeontology


Zoology


I would really enjoy these forums.

Both can be pretty much discussed in Space, Science, Technology, Cryptozoology, Myths, and Legends, Hobbies and Interests, or even General Off- Topic! If you do open up a paleontology thread, I'd love to contribute to it

Me too! Me too!

Rhom came up with a good idea for a new sub forum- historical conspiracies...all of those that date back 100 years ago.

I think a forum titled "The Natural World" would be a good idea to cover all of the animal/plant threads that don't usually have a specific home and get unceremoniously thrust in the cryptids section etc...

I like the sound of the Richdog

I know that the topics can be discussed there, However I believe that they are such Large/Important topics that they should have a forum of their own. And I like your idea Richdog!

This is odd. Usually The WebMeister has said something by now.

Right?

These are all good suggestions, however what we need to avoid is overdoing it on the number of boards we have on the forum. Subjects that fit well into an existing category don't need their own boards, it's usually best to have as few boards as possible to make it easier for visitors to know where to post.

On saying that though I like the idea of a 'Palaeontology' board and 'Natural World' boards, as they co-incide nicely with the news categories of the same name on the main page and don't fit very well into existing sections.

I'll keep them in mind for the next update.

I would like to see something that covers Nature and Animals, Pictures of pets get posted in different sections of UM we get topics on animals in the Crypto section that are not really relevant, photographs of nature at its best, they all end up in different parts of UM?

A forum that covers all these would make it easy to navigate around UM for new comers and members.

Even Suffy's spider picture, great looking spider but you won't get a chance to discuss it unless you hit the jokes section.
