How Do You Create A New Forum?
 
I'm sure it probably isn't possible for someone of my caliber to be able to create a new forum but I wanted to confirm that I was correct. Please help.

Do you mean a completely new forum? I know some people here confuse "forum" for "thread" or "post".

A new section of the forums.

Are there certain requirements that you have to meet to get them to do this?

Ah, you mean Topics. Yup, what shkin said. Just imagine if all members could do that... what a mess that would be.

1: State what you want clearly.
2: provide good sound reasoning for your request and explain how it will help the forums.
3: Convince them.

4. Ensure that your new request is organized. But more importantly, make sure that the topic/theme/reason behind your new forum request cannot reasonably be placed into an already existing section of the forums.

Like if you want to make a chat forum, then just give up, as there are a few sections that you can already chat in, another would be unecessary. Be sure to carefully think out your explanation to them so that they cannot come to the conclusion that an already existing section is suitable for what it is you want.

Good luck!

1. I want to make a poem corner with Kizomaru Yukimoto because we seem to be a good team when it comes to making poems. We have decided on it's name to be "ShikaKizo's Poem Corner". We would like it to be placed in the off-topic section that way spammers cannot get any posts even if they do spam.

2. It will help the forums because people will be able to express their feelings through the beautiful art of poetry. This will provide us the wonder of less flamers. I also think that Kizomaru Yukimoto deserves it so I am trying to convince you...

3. I will take care of the topic with Kizomaru Yukimoto and make sure that there are no spammers. We will take all the spammers and Kizomaru will - rep them because my rep power is near nil. :)

I hope you make the decision that favors me but you may do what you wish, not that it is my place to tell you. Thank you!

Doing a poem corner with that person seems a bit selfish if you ask me.

don't be so mean...

Re: How Do You Create A New Forum?
 
But having a forum dedicated to you and that guy that is not even Naruto related, it's selfish.

JCTKNE4E 01-03-2010 06:06 AM

Re: How Do You Create A New Forum?
 
Them being allowed to run it would have been slightly selfish to request, yes, as I don't believe they are currently mods, temp mods, or users with infract power. However, as I stated in my response, make sure your request couldn't reasonably fall into another currently existing section's designated topic. In this instance, yours could have simply been a thread posted in Off Topic. It also sounds as if it could easily fall into the Stories, Art, and Fanfictions section, making an entire new section superfluous.

Re: How Do You Create A New Forum?
 
Shika9, how will that help the Naruto Forum? the subforum you were asking for is only for the two of you and has nothing to do with Naruto. Your idea can fit into the Fanfic forums or the off topic. Just make a thread there and see what happens.
