So here's the deal...

Outload is coming back and it's doing it in style. User's are going to be able to still enjoy the community feeling of the old phpBB-style Outload (especially since all of the old posts and discussions are here), but in this era of Drupal the ability for our users to create their own content as standalone content. Feel like posting something and don't want others to be able to comment on it, fine, don't allow comments to be posted on your content. Perhaps you've just finished a book that you feel is worth sharing with your fellow Outloadies, write up a book review. Perhaps you've recently seen a film that you felt had something in it that all should see, again, write a short review (hell, if you saw a movie that you feel you must rip on until time ends, please write a review, especially if it's worth a few laughs). If you're an artist, of any type, share your creation with us. For those who have a cooking side to them, share some of your favorite recipes, you never know when you'll need a quick dinner idea.

So, I would like to see a few things:
A) The old forum and it's posts could be condensed into a single 'forum' called 'Archive' or something. This is NOT the deletion or removal of those posts just a relocation. This relocation would allow for a new era of the Outload Forums. For instance:
[Administration/News]
|--> Site Changelog :: A log of all the changes made to the site
|--> Feature Requests :: A place for users to suggest new features
|--> Outload HowTo :: Instructions on using Outload's new abilities
|--> Etc.

[Outloads]
|--> General :: Typical Outload-ish posts
|--> Tech Support :: Ask questions about Linux, Mac or Windows.
|--> Sketchbook :: For artist's who want to share their works.
|--> Archive :: The original Outload forum with all it's posts.

[Spin-Offs]
|--> Pemsu's Reviews
|--> Valshak's Domain
|--> Etc.

B) [WIP] = Work in Progress
