Nice

But I hate those forums that bulk everything together

Skyfire is all about the forums =)

And imho any forums that attract a huge following will be a mess, just like the official forums. And I'm betting the WoWHead ones won't be moderated as well.

I could be wrong, we'll see =)

Ugh... personally I only use wowhead for the talent calc. wowhead is lacking in visible user feedback on an item/quest... I'm a big fan of thottbot, mostly everything is at a glance. Now wowhead forums :-/ a bit sketchy for me atm. I like everything broken up, it's just Forums>General for EVERYTHING. chaos! it'll be the barrens chat of the Warcraft Information Sector. Cats will chase dogs, blue pens will have black ink, bubble wrap wont pop at all, you'll need a 6 before dialing an outside line, milk will be carbonated, and french fries will always be an extra 39 cents! lunatics! don't they realize they've opened Pandoras Box?

Gah! You know, it's still being worked on. You notice the beta sign at the top?

And as for visible user feedback, you know, if you converted, you could help with that issue. ;P

I think you're wrong, but we shall see. We've got 14 mods who sure aren't going to take crap like the Blue forums get. Have you seen the <a href="http://forums.subcreation.net/">subcreation forums</a>? That's what the Wowhead forums are aiming for.

Oh, and we also think that the community at Wh is a much better one than the one which can be found on the Blizz forums. It isn't hard to find the slime of the earth there; so far, all we've had are positive reviews.

See above. This is only temporary, while Skosiris and crew figure out which boards they want, or rather, which the community wants. Atm, (to me) it's looking like the original WoW forums setup, minus the realm forums.

Beta doesn't excuse crappyness, only explains it

QFT, I 100% agree with that statement.

(My word, I'm actually going to write that down and say it to someone who really needs to hear it.
