Organization Outreach
Hey guys, I've got some questions for you
So we have been looking over organizations for a little while now. There are some orgs like TMMA, Indonizer, OBT, ORMO, unofficial orgs, etc. that go through spurs of activity, but the majority of them are either super inactive or dead. With the new forum overhaul coming soon, we're trying to figure out a better way to organize organizations (see what I did there? not funny? didn't laugh? okay). With places that have relaxed rules existing like Off Topic; we could condense orgs down and put them there. Another alternative would be to delete them outright, and give certain orgs a sub-forum relevant to what they do (i.e. ORMO getting a sub-forum in Replays).
What do you guys think about organizations? In their current state, they're really a big mess and don't serve any function. What I'd like to know from you guys is:
How much do you value organizations?
What could be changed about organizations in order for them to be fun and functional? (I did it again somebody please stop me)
Would you be satisfied with any of the potential solutions listed above? If so, which one?
If there's any other ideas you'd like to share regarding organizations, I encourage you to share those as well.

As I understand the language orgs will get their own sub-forum and everybody gets removed outright but can reform under a thread of their choosing. TMMA plans to go to replays and we’ll have link to our discord in the OP

So we will get what, only one thread inside a sub-forum? Or are we geting a sub-forum for each active org?
Because it's really importating for us being able to create threads for organizing events, forum based games, memes and music threads.
I wish we could keep our freedom to create threads as it is now. Only one thread won't cut it.

in my opinion, orgs work similarly to clans but more broadly.
I think they are supposed to be used as sub-communities where people can meet and talk about something in common, but I'm not sure if they are working as they are supposed to.

well, I dont have any smart move up the sleeve but I would try to figure out why people are not using this organizations forum to organize themselves as a subpart of the toribash community.

Each language will be able to create one thread in the board. I honestly don't see a huge problem there, the last event you guys had was over a year ago (unless there were more recent ones that I couldn't find). The only two threads you guys are actively using now are the humor and general chat one - which could easily be merged into one thread without losing much functionality.
However after rethinking the discord channel proposal, I'm not entirely against it anymore. I would be willing to give a channel to both the Brazilians and the Russians, since those are the only two active enough to warrant one. The hard part about this is going to be finding solid moderators for each channel. And I'd have to get permission to do so from my superiors, but I'll ask about it.
EDIT: if you have any more questions you can also dm me on discord @DALTON#1036 and I'd respond much faster
