Good thing ATR wasn't completely removed. I was able to retrieve a copy of this thread and make modifications due to the update pushing out exactly how it was planned.
TL;DR for those too lazy to read -------------------------------------------- ROBLOX is killing off their forums with their poorly thought out decisions with no proper thinking whatsoever. ------------------ Today, ROBLOX just upgrade- I mean downgraded their forums. I sincerely hope they do realize the "catastrophic" the downgrade had on the forums as a whole. I'm showing no bias towards my sub-forum home, ATR (what I mean by bias is telling ROBLOX to revert the update just because I want ATR back), as this thread is showing concern towards all sub-forums and their forumers.
The problems the update presented --------------------------------------------------- Whew. From my previous thread before the downgrade rolled out, I predicted about RN&D being clustered, threads being pushed down like crazy (think about it, over 3 posts per second due to giant subforums mashed together into a sloppy subforum), and no replacement to to other subforums.
Now, the first thing I want to point out is the fact that so many posts and threads are being made every second (hm, at least 3 posts per second, that's crazy). Why is that a problem? The majority of threads, especially those that deserves to have some attention are easily pushed down to the drain, never to see the light again, which has a significant impact on suggestions and ideas. This resulted in many threads being deleted, including those that breaks no rules (according to claims, I have yet to verify that). What happened after? The cursed floodcheck was increased to # ###### ####### if it's true, but I do see that being true). Though that partially helps the situation with threads being pushed down the drain, this also impacts foruming experience, which can irritating for some.
Next, the lack of an off-topic subforum. I'm going to just quote something from the rules.
"Don’t Post in the Wrong Forum"
Yup. And you know what that means? Threads that are off-topic are subject to moderation, including moderation actions taken against the op. But why should it be their fault if their sub-forum has been removed? Without Off-Topic, those who forum there ended up settling here, which contributes to the whole sub-forum being clustered and chaotic.
Solutions ------------- Self explanatory. Revert this update to it's previous state, as the forums were just fine as before, or just create an off-topic subforum, along with a suggestions and ideas subforum.
A question to those who took their 1-2 minutes to read this: What do you think of this merge?

@Super
I made a previous thread just like that (before the merge), and it wasn't deleted. I'm confident this won't be deleted, as I do provide solutions to this update, along with constructive criticism.

Feel free to spread this thread or repost it (don't spam it though), this is something I want the ROBLOX staff to notice and consider.

@Sawn
Yes. That is actually one valid reason, which make's moderator's lives easier. But removing the biggest subforums is more harmful than good. I believe only a few subforums should've been deleted, like video games (or whatever it's called), roleplay, etc. due to the fact that they're somewhat useless if off topic exists.

I read the entire thing and I don't want them to just make a NEW OT either, because it would STILL be too crowded
They really just need to reverse this |

| my biggest problem with the update is that it doesn't allow people to talk about off topic subjects, therefore inhibiting people's personalities and actual interests, which just makes it harder to find people to relate to and talk with |

Best thing to do:
Add an OFF TOPIC FORUM
All the uuhhh.mp3posts will be posted there instead
You can salvage the forums
You accomplished at condensing the forums
Seriously just an off topic page will be a step in the right direction |

You know the update is bad when like every other game with forums has a off topic subforum other than ROBLOX.
