This is almost more out of curiosity than anything else. Are the individual game forums for the Spyro series ever going to be put in order of game release? I've noticed that everything is in that order with the exception of TEN and DotD. I can understand why those two are still at the top since they're the latest releases, but it's been over a year since DotD came out and ANB got put in its more-or-less proper place in the board list much sooner than that. I'm still lost as to why TEN stayed where it is (though it's probably that it was just too much work for something that is, ultimately, just a matter of appearance).

The way I see it, the DotD and TEN boards are the most popular, so them being on top of the list prevents members from having to scroll down daily.

Asides, those mobile games suck.

That's the thing, though. The TEN board isn't popular at all. It gets little to no activity on any given day. It hasn't been popular since DotD was announced. I can see why the DotD board is still near the top, but the TEN one being at the very top has confused me for months.

I see your point there. I don't mind it being there anyway, its more like a placeholder.

I find it easier to find things if they're posted in an order, but I'm also an organizational nut, so... smilie Most of the other Spyro forums have changed the order of their boards and no one seems to be having trouble finding what they're looking for.

So TEN can stay in place because no one is having trouble finding it. Asides, DotD is just next to it right? I don't think even you would have trouble finding it.

We also have the ever hand Ctrl + F.

Honestly, my bigger concern is that the out-of-order forum boards will confuse newcomers about the order in which the games were released. It sounds silly, but a lot of visitors to sites often go straight to the forum and make assumptions based on what they find there.

The site is darkSpyro right? Obviously, they find their info on the site, not on the forum. Hell, the banner on the top is the correct order.

You'd be surprised. I know I didn't know the banner had anything to do with what was on the site the first time I visited, and some folks just get linked straight to the forum.

Though that's the minority.

I hope so. I guess, really, this is just me being neurotic. smilie I could handle the perceived "disorder" when it seemed relevant, but now it's starting to get to me. Ah well.
