Thanks for your reply.
One clear division is the AE and IT categories, is it necessary to divide these? If it is, you could just enforce users to prefix their thread titles with a tag (see this link as an example:
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=4034). To add further confusion, the Mastery subforums are nestled under what appears to be a modification category, when these are not relevant to modifications. You then have modifications such as LOC and D2I under what appears to be a AE/Ragnarok discussion category. There is a modifications subforum that these should be made children of.
Even the Off Topic board has seven subforums, is that really necessary?
While I understand that an appropriate number of forums are require to assist in finding information, having too many forums results in the the opposite which I am finding at the moment. If you look at each forum, you will find that the majority do not have any posts, contrary to what you have stated.
I would suggest something similar to the below to start with:
Titan Quest
- General Discussion
- Masteries / Guides (consider having a build compendium thread stickied in this forum if someone is able to collate builds)
- - Earth
- - Hunting
- - Etc.
- Marketplace
- Modifications
- - LOC
- - D2I
- - Etc.
International
- Titan Quest
- Off Topic
Site
- Announcements
- Suggestions
- Off Topic
